    i blame uncle sam,gaddafi kept a peaceful nation in check other than the one off pan-am disaster,now europe is paying the price,and we have brexiteers blaming germany for a US started problem,the sooner the UK rids itself of trumps USA the better,not all the dons fault but he has continued the downward spiral of idiotic US practice.

    bomber you can believe that if you want  to...  but there was a thriving industry sending Somali and other immigrants to Italy by boat in the 90's from places like Zouara . How do I know ? My Somali house cleaner asked me for a small loan so she could go and she sent me a postcard from Calabria  a couple of weeks later .

    They could start by improving their own governments. I am sure that's not easy. But nobody said everything must be easy.

    One... unfortunately that is an over simplistic view of the facts . Their " own ' governments are propped up by the West and if not by Russian and the Chinese . I think arms sales have a little to do with it or if not oil etc

    Having said that, those I know that have become bored of Pattaya for a plethora of reasons have not 'gone home' they still have their holidays but just not here any more, given the fact that there are now much better options in Asia that provide greater value for their money that is hardly surprising is it?

    Would you like to tell us what these better options are ?

  4. Sold a flat in  the " red hot " West London property 3 years ago , it was never more than a week on the market before some kind of offer was made , though the first offer fell through ( chain )  it quickly   sold near to the price I wanted.

     

    Compared with Pattaya , it was heaven , I listed with several agents and sat back ...and back for well over a year without even getting an offer. Also you need patience to cope with the ever so short high season and the ever so long low season .

     

    Eventually it sold but most of the profit was in the  strength of the Thai baht rather than the condo .

    It begs the question; where will the Trump Library be? And who will be the donors that cough up the several hundred million these things tend to cost?

    Would anyone liked to speculate on the books ( if any ! ) and other media items that might make up the Trump library ....when the "event happens "   ?? Moscow might have some input !

    Wouldn't send any of my gear to anyone but Canon......

    Actually my experience was the exact opposite .

    The charming ' trained " lady at Canon just took about a second to say ......you need a new lens.

     

    The ' untrained ' Thai genius at SD camera actually dismantled  the camera and  fixed the problem at a very reasonable cost  and gave it back the next day. It works until this day .
