  1. Marine Disco was always packed out in high season when I went in there. Rip off on booze prices too.
  2. It's up to the customs isn't it! They've been through a lean couple of years so what is the betting that they won't be looking to make up for that now? I've read many posts about customs demanding outrageous amounts on goods before they will release them.
  3. Correct, Fly an airline that allows the max weight of checked luggage. If it won't fit in or is too heavy it's not needed, as everything can be bought in LOS other than personal keepsake items.
  4. I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic.
  5. I hadn't thought about that. No electricity, no car 555555555555555555555555555
  6. It's going to create havoc with the second hand car market. What dumb bell is going to buy an electric car when the battery will need changing. Most people can't afford a new car, so if they stop petrol sales how are people going to get around- bicycle?
  7. Unfortunately it's usually a case of the least worse candidate. The offerings to vote on are sadly not much good these days.
  8. Unless such was illegal it's meaningless in the context of "getting Trump" for something, anything to stop him standing in '24. I assume Trump had tax accountants, like most rich people do to minimise their tax payments.
  9. From the linked article. Former President Trump wanted to fire the former White House chief usher for helping the Bidens move into the executive mansion, former White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham told the select committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. I don't see any corroborating evidence for that, so is it just her word ( for what that is worth )?
  10. Well pointed out. Very much what I see here too.
  11. Businesses have "gone under" for as long as there have been businesses. The good ones will survive, the bad ones won't be missed. Brexit is just an excuse for not being a worthwhile business.
  12. Difference is that you get a decent pension in LOS from Britain. I don't get the pension if I leave here. If anyone can suggest how I can live a decent life in LOS without any income, I'm all ears.
  13. I can see how you are the life and soul of the party when you start ranting about that, LOL. You were making sense till you just HAD to go and put that gem in.
  14. 5555555555555555 If I had the means to live in LOS I could live in a proper house here. I can never go back to live because I can't afford 800,000 in the bank plus health insurance. Last year in LOS I lived in an hotel room, so yes, no need for a proper house.
  15. If a senior is bored that's down to them. I'm never bored unless I want to be. So much to do I'll never be able to before I cark it. Age discrimination- absolutely, from the spoiled princes and princesses that never understand that one day they are going to be old too.
  16. IMO that's a western invention, probably because too many men were not being ripped off when they left a loveless partner. Can't have women missing out on the goodies.
  17. No. A village wedding does not count as a legal wedding for division of the spoils.
  18. or previously married/ living with, or had children, or ( probably ) if not a virgin. If I take one thing away from the sinsod debate ( on this and on many other similar threads ) it is that some farangs really do leave their brains at the airport. By all means play the game and give it for show, but freaking' don't give it for real.
  19. LOL. If we actually create a real AI and it has the ability to do stuff, rather than just think, I think it would determine that the best thing for the planet is if we humans are no longer on it.
  20. I don't think I'm rotten, given I spent most of my working life tending to the sick as a nurse, but I am past my sell by date. Just filling in time till the last great adventure. Do I deserve to carry on? Given that we don't have a right to painless euthanasia, it's not up to me as to when I pass over the great divide.
  21. LOL. I'm still waiting for anyone to come up with affordable, effective and acceptable solutions to man made pollution. So far nada. What is the first thing people wanted to do after restrictions eased- get on a plane to travel! 5555555. So much for doing something practical by not flying and polluting the atmosphere.
  22. Yeah, I really got fooled big time. That whole be good and work hard and we'll look after you when you retire thing is complete BS.
  23. Yes total removal, and horrible side effects. I'd never go that route if I could go back.
  24. I suspect not air but environmental.
