  1. I hope so Dr J, but how can you be so definite.? Based on what criteria.?
  2. So you've never heard of him and that makes you clever, and anyone who sees his blog regularly is stupid. Fair enough.
  3. What are you on about mouth.? As I said in an earlier post my connection to this is the Moderna vacs pre-paid at the Memorial, with an uncertain delivery date anytime after early October. Not much use for having a meal out next month.
  4. Do the RTP have no understanding of how ridiculous that statement makes them look.? Do they really think anybody is so stupid as to believe a word of it.?
  5. Easy to be negative, please tell us the wonderful things about the Thai place you live. John Grisham says you should never ask a question you do not already know the answer to. Ah well.................
  6. Brawls.? In over 20 years I think I've seen half a dozen. Drunks.? Most parts of the world have them, Pattaya with thousands of bars has some too. Bad traffic.? Don't go to Bangkok or Phuket if you think this is bad. Overcrowding.? If you are more specific I could comment. Pattaya is what it is and one thing it is, is low crime. Not perfect but good enough for the price.
  7. ???????? Forgot to mention loose and lose or the apostrophe. No end to it. We're doomed. Speaking of the apostrophe, a formerly disreputable bar in Pattaya still has the signwritten name The Dog's Bollards. (no point getting deleted) 25 years ago even football hooligan bar owners understood grammar.
  8. If that's the only problem just go in different bars, there's enough around.
  9. It's Birkenhead that has the horrible accent. Anfield is fine.
  10. And how many here have no qualifications, I have met lorry drivers, bus drivers, a fitter's mate amongst others and a Russian who doesn't speak to anyone else. Don't know about the latter but all the others take their jobs seriously. They may not be good at explaining Shakespeare but generally are not required to.
  11. "some of the horrible accents native speakers are", yes quite, I get your drift, damn spellcheck again.
  12. Actually no, but I did have malaria twenty odd years ago. Do you feel like explaining dengue.? Not a snarky post, I know of it but not about it. I could always just google it I suppose.
  13. So other than publicising your own ineptitude you are saying that the continuing growth of low levels of literacy does not bother you at all.? It irritates the firk out of me, but I suppose some would say that means I have so. few things to worry about.
  14. Is a Kindle an ebook reader.? I keep meaning to get myself into the new millennium technology. What in your view is the advantage of an ebook reader over tablet, laptop, notebook etc. Got a mate that swears by his Kindle but I am still attached to the old ways. I am waiting anxiously for rules to be relaxed and my trips to Bangkok to be worth it again, including the Nielsen Hayes Library.
  15. Very likely, no more practical than the day it was first announced and then retracted.
  16. BB I mentioned it on here because of the Moderna jabs at the Memorial Hosp. But besides that there will be very many not double vaxxed.
  17. That is in his daily bulletin a few minutes ago. Will be interesting to see if and how it works out. Bit of a bummer if you paid up front to the Memorial for Moderna jabs, first one being sometime in October and the second ? not sure about that.
  18. He starts off open and gregarious, then turns anti-social.
  19. Could it be that you are mistaking casual, light conversation and innocuous comments with nosiness and intrusive behaviour.? Though obviously I cannot put their approaches into any context.
  20. The simplest strategy for that battle is to stop paying them.
  21. What is the current estimate for accuracy of the antigen tests.? I have read 80% and 90% but do not know where these figures come from.
  22. Ten years on from that I have begun to contemplate it and have reduced my Leo intake considerably.
