  1. Absolutely correct and that agrees with my birth certificate.
  2. So is my wedding anniversary and my birthday and I have proof of them.
  3. Good. The more they fight each other, the less time and money they have to fight for the next presidential election. I hope that the whole current GOP self destructs and is rebuilt from the ground upwards by sensible intelligent people.
  4. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Thai_Air_Force Scroll down to transport and it will say what aircraft they have.
  5. Isn't doing a little research useful. Facts are always useful and there are so many links out on the internet if a poster can be bothered to look, instead of blundering about as several posters here do and get their unverified "facts" wrong as usual.
  6. He has a strong and trusted set of bodyguards. But then again so did Indira Ghandi who was PM of India until 31 October 1984, two of Gandhi's Sikh bodyguards, Satwant Singh and Beant Singh, shot her with their service weapons in the garden of the prime minister's residence at 1 Safdarjung Road, New Delhi, allegedly in revenge for Operation Blue Star.[109] The shooting occurred as she was walking past a wicket gate guarded by the two men. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indira_Gandhi
  7. There comes a time when we all have to face reality and mine was waking up in hospital with no idea why I was there or how I got there. What scares me is that if I did drive, I may black out again, have an accident and kill some innocent person and not even know I had done it. It is easier to quit while I am ahead.
  8. One time I went to the hospital and I was short of breath and having a breathing problem, I was registered, given a red ticket, and whipped straight into the emergency room. The service was great and nobody seemed to mind me getting instant treatment. There were about 70 odd people in front of me.
  9. I use the local government hospital about 13 km down the road in Klong Nam Lai, Kamphaeng Phet province, and the main one in Kamphaeng Phet City. Both are excellent with good doctors, some nurses and orderlies who also speak English.
  10. Really? And who was occupying East Germany until the Berlin Wall in 1989 fell and East Germany collapsed in 1990?
  11. Perhaps the driver had a blackout and he was unaware of his condition. I had one 3 weeks ago and knew nothing about it until I woke up in hospital. I had, and still have, no idea what happened until my wife told me the following day. I simply lost 24 hours. Granted I am 78, but I had no idea that could happen to me. That was also the day I quit driving, just in case.
  12. Does anyone believe that nonsense?
  13. My pickup gets washed at least once a year at the carwash.
  14. Unless it is the government 7 series BMW or MB he is driven around in, complete with a police escort.
  15. I am 78 and my Thai wife is 57. We have been married 23 years in April and our son is now 18. She was 28 when we met. Am I a pervert.
  16. Sadly there are not many podiatrists or hand/foot spas out here in rural Kamphaeng Phet.
  17. In the real world I agree with you. However TIT. That person has absolute control over all the military, and, along with the yellow shirts and the rabid royalists can have a serious effect on the election results as we saw at the last election.
  18. Very true, and possibly what may happen at he next or subsequent coups. Unfortunately the biggest drawback to coups are strongly supported by the person we cannot talk about, and that is the problem that Thailand has to deal with first along with S112 and the associated laws.
  19. In Thailand the people get the government that is selected for them by fair means or foul, and every military coup is by foul means.
  20. The hardest thing and the most difficult task for me is getting my toenails cut. Fortunately my 18 year old son cuts them for me.
  21. Thank you for the information. I had not realised until I joined this thread how many other posters were in a similar position. I kept thinking poor me, I must be the only one. But this is one of the better and more helpful threads on ANN and as yet unsullied by trash posts so far.
