An English couple, an Irish couple and a Scottish couple are at the links ready to tee off. The Englishman’s wife steps up to the tee first and as she bends over to place ball a gust of wind blows her skirt up and reveals her lack of underwear. “Allo! Why aren’t you wearing any knickers?” her husband demanded. “Well, you don’t give me enough housekeeping money to afford to buy any!” The Brit immediately reaches into his pocket and says, “For the sake of St. George, here’s 50 pounds. Go and buy yourself some underwear.” Next the Irishman’s wife bends over to set her ball on the tee. Her skirt blows up to show that she is wearing no undies. “Bejesus woman! You’ve no knickers! Why not?” She replies, “I can’t afford any on the money you give me!” He reaches into his pocket and says, “For the sake of St. Patrick, here’s 20 pounds. Go and buy yourself some underwear!” Lastly, the Scotsman’s wife bends over. The wind also takes her skirt over her head to reveal that she too is naked under it. “Hoot mon woman! Why d’ye have nae knickers?” She too explains, “You nae give me enough housekeeping money to be able to afford any!” The Scot reaches into his pocket and says, “For the sake of St. Andrew, lass, here’s a comb. Tidy yourself up a wee bit.”

That cow must be Friesian.

All I know is that I received a letter from Barclay's stating that I must close my account as I do not reside in the UK. If I don't close it they will do so on 31st August 2023. So, the requirement is that I reside in the UK, which I don't and will not in the forseeable future. I don't know whether this is a legal requirement, or just Barclay's deciding that it's better for their business.

Maybe Much Ado About Nothing. Edit: Just to say, joking aside, that these big Pattaya events are usually pretty good.

That sucks! My pension provider accepted the authenticated "proof of account details" provided by Wise.

I never had any issues with Barclay's in the 18 years I've lived in Thailand without a UK address - until now.

I would support efforts to reduce my need to travel far from home (for example, not having to go to Bangkok twice to renew my passport), but laws and regulations to restrict my movements - never.

@paddypower Can she have the income paid directly to her Thai bank account? If not, she could set up a Wise multi currency account which gives a UK sort cde and account number and can be used to receive her UK income. Then she can use the Wise app to transfer her money to Thailand. There are probably other financial services companies like Wise, but I don't have any info about them.

They're on a roll.

Also age discrimination. 5-year olds pay ฿150 but 61-year olds pay just ฿80 for 1.5 hours.

Running away from his wife?
