Growing up when 60's rock 'n roll was new I never imagined then that I would or could appreciate the above in the distant future.

I'm surprised anyone listened to it at all.

Bit of a loner here.    But am I bovvered.

I have recently been very impressed with rapidly rising wind power results. Bring back the solar support and install some AGRs to provide nuclear until fusion comes on 50 years from now. How did we lose our own nuclear industry? I must read up on that. Coal is almost finished, then oil, then combined cycle (that's gas for our new friend) Frakking is not worth the risk and environmental damage. Fossil furs wil soon be history.

Fossil fuels will also be history.  Agreed, can't be soon enough Grouse!

Chill easy

Everything seems well covered here, I would only add that whatever tractor

you go for, it might be an idea to avoid the newer electronically controlled

machines, the older stuff can be owner fixed with a spanner..or hammer.

The USD, in good shape or bad shape compared to the Thai Baht.

ell in the USA, there was a housing crisis. Has that been fixed or can

your still buy a house, no moey down, etc. Move out of Mom and Dads basement

with your 2 ten dollar an hour jobs at MacDonalds into a 200 thousand dollar house, where

you discover stuff called. Mortgage, Utility bills, yes the Power, Gas or oil, and fees galore for

getting these services to your place. You find out that air conditioning or heat is not free.

you let the house go and move back to the basement.  Hmmm. is that why the USA is

still in the soup financially? The government is still getting paid big wages for lots of

rich people, such as the President and his family, all the Governers and their families,

the local mayors and councillers and their families. How about the Military of the USA and

all of its costs, or the 2 B747 that fly everytime the President goes somewhere?

Geezer

Welcome to the Matrix.

You seem to be confusing something being recorded as an incident with something being recorded as a crime - they are not the same.


Sent from my iPad using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app

Home Office rules disagree with you, 'All reports of incidents, whether from victims, witnesses or third parties and whether crime related or not, will, unless immediately recorded as a crime, result in the registration of an auditable incident report by the police'.

Right, so that is why criticism of authorities can land you in prison in almost every ASEAN nation but is protected free speech throughout Europe.

I wonder how well Thailand would fare if it pulled out and what the people would think - a rhetorical question of course.

The ASEAN is for peace an trade.  The EU is a states control authority.

How do you help a friend who's got rat-arsed, told his boss to stick his job where the sun don't shine, and is about to embark of a future career selling innovative jams to the world  ? Me, I'd tell him to swallow his pride and get the job back, but maybe you a jam marketing expert?

 

Like I said if it happens, it happens. I think it's wrong, like duel pricing in Thailand, but I can't stop it. I won't help it though. as my conscience  would not be clear after.   

If the jam is innovative, with the right marketing, it will sell

to the WORLD,..Your own key word there.   I'd have a go at that.

I would not get 'rat-arsed' given that opportunity.

Duel pricing is business making profit where it can.
