  1. Yet if you went to their house and did the same thing, they would be the first to call the and have you arrested. If they want to change things, it is easy. All they have to do is form a political party, stand at the next general election, win the majority of seats, form the government and run the country. That of course assumes that enough people are willing to elect you. There is actually a Republic UK political party, but all they have achieved is nothing. No MPs, not enough people can be bothered to vote for them but they do shout a lot.
  2. There is a whole world of difference in fighting an armed military who are defending their country and slaughtering unarmed women, children and babies, If you don't know the difference, now is the time to do some research and learn.
  3. I am talking about buses as that was the last information update I had. Granted that I have never bothered to order fresh/frozen food I have also never seen a refrigerated delivery van belonging to ANY delivery company in this area. Out here delivery is normally by "Flash" and that is normally a box van pr a motorbike,
  4. Would the price be 99,000 thb outside of BKK? Search for dealers away from BKK and check out their price for cash. You may well be able to save some money.
  5. Yawn. More conspiracy theories. I have eaten processed foods for most of my life and I am only 81.
  6. Or from a very old UK TV series called "Blue Peter", you can still hear John Noakes crying "Get down, Shep".
  7. IIRC to get fresh/frozen goods delivered out here in rural Kamphaeng Phet, the shop has to put the stuff into a chiller box, take it to the bus station nearest them, call me on my mobile with the information, ship the stuff to Bangkok, somehow ensure that the stuff gets to the correct bus terminal and on the correct bus, not so many buses nowadays, and the arrival time at the destination village 6km away, for me or my wife to collect. TBH I don't really think it is worth all the hassle.
  8. Bacon-honey Mustard dry cure v01 https://tasteofartisan.com/how-to-cure-bacon/#recipe Use belly pork for streaky bacon. or loin pork for back bacon Ingredients 500g 1kg 2kg Pork belly, no skin for streaky 500g 1kg 2kg Or pork loin, no skin for back bacon 500g 1kg 2kg Honey 15g 30g 60g Coleman’s mustard powder a/r a/r a/r Kosher or sea salt 15g 23g 45g Himalayan pink salt 2g 2.5g 5g Ground black pepper 8g 15g 30g See Instruction #2 below For the salts and pepper see Instruction #3 below Warning it is a messy business but worth it. Instructions 1. Weigh the pork belly in grams. Divide by 1000, then multiply each ingredient by that number. For example, if your belly weighs 2650 g, you need to multiply the ingredients specified above by 2.65. 2. Rub the belly with honey. Make sure that the piece od pork is either on the cut open bag it came in or ob a piece of cling film much bigger than the piece of pork. So that you can throw it away when you have finished 3. Combine the Sea salt, Himalayan Cure #1, and black pepper in a small bowl. 4. Apply the dry cure mix evenly on all sides of the pork belly. 5. Place the pork into a Ziploc bag, (I use a 30x36cm bag) or vacuum-seal, and refrigerate for at least 7 days and up to 14 days for regular thickness pieces (less than 3") and up to 21 days for thicker bacon pieces (3" or thicker), flipping occasionally. I turn the bag over once a day if I remember. 6. Remove from the bag, pat dry with paper towels, scrape off excess seasoning with the back of a knife if you desire, slice, cook and enjoy. 7. You may also hang the bacon to dry for a week or so, at temperatures below 40F if not using Cure #1 or at 55F or below if using Cure #1. This will improve shelf life and intensify flavour. 8. If you used Cure #1 to cure the bacon, you can smoke it at low temperatures (below 200F) to obtain smoky flavour. Notes If you decide not to use Cure #1, replace its amount with kosher salt. If you don't mind your bacon slightly sweeter, double the amount of honey. The bacon will become much tastier, with less perceptible saltiness and a pleasant sweetness. It's addictive!
  9. Which I suppose is fine, IF you live in Pattaya but not everybody does.
  10. I make my own honey and mustard dry cure bacon which takes about 2 weeks to cure, turning daily in the fridge. I use either loin pf pork or belly of pork, about 2kg at a time, and it tastes like thick cut bacon to me. I have a recipe if you want it.
  11. Most posters on AN are NOT "obsessing", those that are, seem to be the anti-vaccine people, like you for example. Take a look back at ALL the anti-vaccine threads and see who posts the most comments.
  12. And never tell anybody what you have or where it is.
  13. A perfect example of an illegal order. He should be dismissed from the Navy. ALL those below him should be court martialled for obeying the illegal order, and ALL those civilians above him should be jailed for life, including Trump, for issuing the illegal order.
  14. And your qualifications as a virologist or immunologist are what exactly. When you have spent years studying virus and immunology, AND are fully qualified, then come back and lecture us all. Until then please don't bother with silly conspiracy theories.
  15. Don't forget Paul Burnett as "the Plastic Chicken". The hairy monster from 200 miles up the M1.
  16. Thank you. I actually get 3 pensions, but one is the frozen state pension which dies with me.
  17. Thank you. I have just about all of that, except ,y wife's birth certificate. The pension providers do have a bereavement sheet telling her want they want, in ENGLISH, but they will not send a copy to me, even though it is about me, and I can help her out, as the form seems to be a cosmic top secret, burn before reading form.
  18. I am also in the process of setting up a will so that my wife gets all my assets in Thailand. My big problem is how to ensure that my wife gets my 2 pensions from the UK when I die.
  19. He will wriggle like a worm on a hook, and deny and divert from what he wrote, but it is still BS whichever way he tries to spin, Another hard question for him to answer, is why have the illegal settlers got Israeli issued weapons?
  20. And whose police would that be? No matter what conclusion is reached by the Palestinian police, Israel will not accept it, and the Israeli police, IF they even bother to investigate, will simply follow the Israeli government line.
  21. And if the illegal murderous settlers had NOT STOLEN the land in the first place, there would have been no need for them to be there in the first place. Try thinking about cause and effect.
  22. Did anybody, other than Trump and MAGA supporters really think Putin and Russia would meekly give up and go home just because of yet another failed Trump "Peace Plan"? The could have achieved the same result by staying in the USA, and saving the US taxpayers money. Any sensible thinking person could have told them that,
  23. And he believes it 100% without thinking through the consequences, or even the legality of such an order.
  24. The Israeli Zionist government will firstly fiercely deny it ever happened. When that pathetic excuse fails, they will say that it was the Canadian and Italians fault for attacking the ILLEGAL settlers, and when that pathetic excuse fails, they will say that it was the fault of the Palestinians, and when that pathetic excuse fails, they will say that it was the anti-Semitic nations worldwide, as it could NEVER be the Israelis, because they are the most moral nation in the world.
  25. My apologies. I leapt to the conclusion that it was Trump and not President Herzog. Trump seems to be giving out pardons like sweeties nowadays. My bad.
