  1. And close it behind themselves, quietly.
  2. The problem is not of his personal making. but that of ALL UK politicians going back decades. Cut the size of ALL the military branches and at the same time increase the commitments that the service people have to do. It is also the responsibility of ALL the service chiefs for NOT speaking out in support of the troops and not resigning on protest. Don't talk to the chiefs, but talk to the troops instead and keep the bean counters away from ANY increase in costs. Then try to recruit a 20% increase across ALL branches per year for at least 3 years to build a fully trained military. Do NOT commit the troops to suit any vanity project.
  3. I am getting old. From the OP I can remember both Beales and Bealsons in Bournemouth in the 1950s and early 1960's when I was growing up in Poole.
  4. Isn't proof a wonderful thing? Do you have any?
  5. Thailand probably IS a safe country to travel to. However there are many places that tourists go to which are not as safe as other places, at the wrong time of day or night.
  6. And who made YOU the Grand Poo Bah to decide who can post or not? If you post on an open thread, anybody can answer. If you don't like the post, then ask for clarification, but don't attack the poster, it shows your immaturity that you have no answer but an insult.
  7. Russia invaded the Ukraine and took the Crimea, now they have invaded the Ukraine once again. If you don't understand that you should do at lot more research and go back to school to relearn modern history.
  8. Do you believe everything that you read on FB?
  9. TBH Sandy, it is just 2 agents on FB only in Pattaya. Nothing has been released (that I have seen or read from Immigration and if I were to believe everything posted on FB I doubt if I would ever leave my house. Instead of posting unsubstantiated rumours from FB, it is better as you say, to wait and see IF anything official pops up. If there was an Olympic event called "Jumping to Conclusions" there are a few posters on AN who would be vying for first place.
  10. Why do you think that I am panicking. If you read my post, I already explained that it doesn't affect me. Why post rumours and not facts?
  11. Links, proof. or just your word? BTW it does not affect me.
  12. Why not do a simple internet search of the word "bile". I will give you a clue, I did not mean the word in its medical term. As for the rest of your post, you just proved my point.
  13. Neither the USA or Israel are signatories to the ICC, (what a surprise) so it doesn't really matter to either of them. Of course if Netanyahu's aircraft had to make a forced landing due to an aircraft emergency in a signatory's country, it may be a different matter.
  14. You of course are the perfect example of how people should never be. Full of bile and hatred.
  15. Thank you for an interesting and informative read.
  16. I think that he means the war that took place in Afghanistan, supported by the USA who organised and armed the Taliban to get the Russians out. In retrospect it probably was not the best political or military move. I will say no more, other than it was a long time ago and perceptions change over time.
  17. How many innocent men, women and children being killed, would be enough to make you happy?
  18. I live in rural Kamphaeng Phet which is about 500 km from you, if you live in Pattaya. The filters, sadly, are not reusable, so you would have to buy new ones. As for me selling you the old unit, I would not do that. I will give it to you, if you really want it, and want to pay the postage via the Thai post office. That way, if it is of no use, all it would cost is the postage. I have 3 thoughts in my head about shipping. 1 Thai Post Office. 2 Taking it to 7/11 as I think that they have connections with a courier delivery. 3 I have a feeling that there is a courier service not that far from me, but at the moment it is just a vague memory of where it is. I have never sent stuff using them, and my Thai wife has no idea where it is. We have however shipped a motorbike from the local post office to Chiang Rai successfully. What are your thoughts?
  19. Some more photos showing the base.
  20. Do an internet search for yourself and find out.
  21. It is actually posted in the World News forum, which is one of the many forums on Asean News. You don't have to read it unless you want to keep up with the World News.
  22. Now I know where it is, I will pull it out tomorrow and take some more photos after I dismantle it. I also remembered, after a while, that I used to put Vaseline on the rubber gasket, fitted the gasket on the cover, and then put the cover on the filter and clamped it. Over tightening the clamp was what split the cover, and I have nobody to blame for that but me.
