  1. I'm not sure what it is like now but the THAI ROP scheme was very good to me until I stopped flying frequently, a few years ago. I never applied on-line for a reward but just visited the local THAI office - and they were great! I always managed to get what I asked for. So thankyou, THAI.
  2. Can you leave these alone and list 3 more to choose from?
  3. I hope you got the dog's OK to borrow his dish?
  4. We'll have to hope that the next US president can remember who his true friends are, because the UK will get no respect from Biden - in fact the opposite has become glaringly obvious. .
  5. If you want me to go on arguing, you'll have to pay for another five minutes, so we can argue about it.
  6. Is this to be just the five minutes off topic or the full half-hour?
  7. It was a prearranged gesture of respect. Something Biden might do better to learn from.
  8. He was receiving an award and stooping to make the decoration easer. That is a courtesy. Not a curtsey.
  9. I'd just like to know why the score was 3-0 instead of at 1-1. American officials do not have to bow. More recently, however, it would have been far more appropriate for Joe Biden to offer just a brief respectful nod to King Charles, when they met, instead of pawing his arms and shoulders. Such a huge expensive air and land fleet just to transport this circus. Hopeless! .
  10. I think just one little one would be plenty enough. She's not a tall gal!
  11. China must have been impressed. Janet she bowed so many times her head nearly fell off!
  12. I've seen this man before, talking on the same subject. If you look at the comments below the VDO you can see that the level of this 'world renown' and respect is not as high as you seem to think. Some of Mearsheimer's reasoning for Russia's stance may be fair but I think that her brutal actions have voided any chance of any understanding or forgiveness. The link below is to an article, also published by the EUI, which directly concerns that talk in the VDO. It highlights that which Mearsheimer does not say and pretty much disagrees with him completely. https://euideas.eui.eu/2022/07/11/john-mearsheimers-lecture-on-ukraine-why-he-is-wrong-and-what-are-the-consequences/
  13. Most western countries have signed a ban on the movement of cluster munitions. They merely want to keep that in place, despite what Russia and Ukraine have been doing, or want to do. https://www.dw.com/en/russia-uses-cluster-bombs-extensively-in-ukraine-report-says/a-62927491
  14. Strange that after finding this US National Centres for Environmental Prediction at: https://www.weather.gov/organization/ and https://www.weather.gov/news/ there is no such story (or similar).
  15. Never heard of that. My <deleted> got me at sea-level anyways.
  16. Infections usually increase with the wetter weather.
