  1. There are UPS available at a price but if you are old and poor, you may not be able to afford one. I am a little surprised that the hospital did not supply a UPS with the equipment. Having said that, equipment supplied by the state hospitals is not always returned when the user no longer needs it.
  2. It you are bed ridden and confined to bed it is very difficult to get up, travel to the PEA office and explain the situation. I tend to think that her family would normally pay the bill, perhaps at a 7/11 if that were nearer. Again I think that her family could have gone to the PEA with a letter from her doctor explaining the mothers situation. Here in rural Kamphaeng Phet, my meter is read on 23/24 monthly and the payment date is the 3rd of the following month. If I forget, a reminder is put in the electricity box on the 10th of the following month. How many bills you can stop paying before before being cut off I have no idea. 2 or 3 perhaps, depending on the size of the bill.
  3. But it was an issue with the Spanish when the Spaniards living in La Linea, who work in Gibraltar couldn't cross the border to go to work
  4. IMHO there is a vast difference between playing a hero on screen and reality. The first is fantasy where at the end of the day you take off your makeup, and go home at the end of the day, and being in the front line where people really are trying to kill you and you don't get to go home for weeks or months. Where you live on cold food or even no food and sleep where and when you can. Cold, wet, dirty and hungry. In many cases you go home in a body bag weighed down with dirt or sand if they can't find or recognise enough bits of you. In some cases you do go back home with bits of you missing, to a "heroes" welcome after which you are simply tossed aside as no use to man nor beast.
  5. It was made quite clear at the 2 referendums that the majority of the Gibraltar people want nothing to do with Spain.
  6. I am so upset that you have ignored me. I think I will go to my room and cry. OTOH you are ignoring me so you won't see my posts. I, however will still be able to see yours. It sort of defeats the object like burying your head in the sand so that nobody can see you.
  7. It wouldn't be the first time that the border was closed, and I don't expect it to be the last.
  8. Not true at all. Many people use some parts of the cannabis on medical grounds. Are they deluded potheads too?
  9. I think a lot depends on what part of the cannabis you use, how much of it you use and the way you use it.
  10. You didn't even bother to think or ask what the people of Gibraltar even want, and they are the ones who will be affected the most.
  11. There have been 2 referendums in recent years. The overwhelming majority Of the Gibraltar people voted to remain British. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2002_Gibraltar_sovereignty_referendum https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1967_Gibraltar_sovereignty_referendum Try not to presume what other people want. What you presume may well not be what the people concerned actually want.
  12. Why not completely ignore what the people of Gibraltar want? They only live there.
  13. Have you found the bottom of the barrel yet, or are you carrying on scraping?
  14. Of course I have no idea. Then again I didn't bring the subject up. YOU did.
  15. Was that the question that I asked you, or simply a diversion because you have no idea?
  16. I use 3 or 4 dried cannabis flowers mixed with honey and boiling water to make tea. I let it cool and then drink about 450ml from the fridge. It seems to ease the pain in my arthritic kneecaps. It works for me, though I have no idea if it would work for anybody else. No hallucinations since I started it about 2 months ago.
  17. So how many of the millions of recipients actually caused a problem, compared to those who did NOT cause a problem?
  18. Why is there ALWAYS at least one moaner on every post like this?
  19. And a cold half eaten Big Mac at that.
  20. What did YOU donate for your tax deduction?
  21. Back to relying on Fox opinions again for your posts. BTW there is NO Fox News as such.
  22. Trump has promised many things to many people. However promises and deliveries are 2 separate things. Trump is full of the first, and sadly lacking on the second.
  23. I am not quite sure what she is. Her nationality is Swedish but she appears not to have a job in Sweden or any other country that I can think of. As a member state of the European Union, Swedish citizens enjoy freedom of movement within the European Economic Area (EEA). The Citizens' Rights Directive defines the right of free movement for citizens of the EEA. So she would not need a visa nor a German ID card, and I am not sure that she would need a passport, as her Swedish ID card may be sufficient. Now whether when visiting the EU, she would need to show proof of funds, proof of somewhere to stay, I honestly have no idea. Could she be banned as an activist or a protestor? IMHO she would first have to be arrested, taken to court and found guilty of a crime. That may be one way to keep her out of Germany, but I suspect that she would play the victims card. To me she is no more than one of those annoying little buzzy flies that always seem to be around, but are just that little too quick to be swatted.
  24. I love the dark blue Caddilac,
