I am new to Thailand but I soon picked up that Thai girls use the expression ' he /she didn't think that far ' .
Seems they didn't think ....at all !

Singapore always seemed to be a bit of a rat race , compared with the rest of Asia , when I was there many years ago . Seems it hasn't changed much !

I think I may have met her at some stage last night .I dont really remember !

Is it just a coincidence that Corbyn and Chavez both begin with " c ' and have 6 letters ?

The legitimate government of Syria invited Russia and Iran to assist them to defeat US backed terrorists ISIS & Al Queda. Do you believe everything American & British MSM tell you? Wake up! Russia and Iran saw what American and British thieves did to Iraq and Libya. The same thieves have been attempting to steal Venezuelan gold and oil since the Drug Running, Hitler Backing Bush family last held the White house
sim maybe I am missing something but regardless of who runs the show , oil is paid for on the world market .
Perhaps you would like to give us an example of oil being stolen by the US and British thieves , presumable you mean Exxon and BP ?
There are , of course , many examples of the Govts 60%+ share of the oil being squandered and stolen instead of being used to develop the country . Nigeria comes to mind .

Where is all this going? Nowhere!!
The UK helped create this Saudi monster. The US is using it for its own ends and the rest of the world is 'tut, tutting'. "Oh isn't it terrible?"
Take away their oil and they would be riding across the desert on their camels again.
Venezuela; you're next for regeim change. We want your luvvely oil. Watch this space!
Wasn't it Bush (junior) that said; "Don't know what god was thinking, putting all US's oil under other countries' land!"
Well having worked in one or two of those other ( ME ) countries I must say , George does have a point !

As the Worlds 5 th largest economy , we can make trade deals with the other top economies , USA , China , India , Japan , as well as Australia , Brazil , Canada and all the rest .
If the EU doesnt want the UK to buy their products , nevermind , its a big World out there
Sane , the UK used to be the 5th largest economy in the world but I think you will over the last 2 1/2 years it has slipped to 7 th .
Sorry about that and we ain't even started the process yet !

Slightly off topic or maybe not but I had the pleasure of living in a country , many years ago, that decided to go down the 'managed economy " road just like Venezuela .
Just like Venezuela in a very short time , expats had to bring in there own toilet paper !

I would like to see NI reunified with the south. I think there would be a majority for that and it would kill off the DUP permanently. What a freak show they are!
Grouse when its all over , I'd like to think we could sit down and I could buy you a pint , unfortunately I doubt either of us could afford one frankly
.,,,,,,,,,,,, perhaps a kindly French or German feeling sorry for us will step in. !

anyway, re your observations in Patts
I don't see any mentioning here of the Crawler on lower Sukh in BKK
he is crawling on his stomach in the gutter between Asoke and Soi 4, both sides of Sukh
raining flooding or whatever -no sweat - he crawls in his shitty rags
has been doing that for years and years
he drives a Benz, on 2 occasions I've had a beer with him
but, by all means - challenged people have a hard life in LoS - not much safety network here
Regarding the crawler , there was one in Nana Soi 7 below the BTS, when I came to BKK in 2004 , recently I was amazed to see another one in the same place maybe younger looking . I wonder if these prime ' sites ' get sold on?
Maybe there will a beggers Monopoly board one day . !

So, did you support the miners strike?
Scab is specifically used to describe a strikebreaker, but never heard of the hard right supporting the strike.
Actually I knew someone who I would describe as the local village eccentric who did break the strike .
It took about 400 policemen to get him through the line .
Actually Ive forgoten the point of this thread and why I wrote this ! Sorry about that

I still feel a sense of eternal sadness that I was never able to listen personally to one of Fidel's 6 hour speeches .
That communism stuff must be really hard to figure out !

As a naïve non American , can I ask what work these immigrants actually do when they hop across the border ?
And who employs them ?
I dont ever remember seeing or hearing any kind of documentary or discussion about this .

I'm really amazed that Farage's backers aren't pushing hard for a second referendum , since they made so much money during the first one , spread betting on the side !
I almost thought I was back at the Forex "pits ' for a while there !

Phone him up on a Friday Evening and put that to him.
Well George G cant deny selling his house for a near 1/2 million ( pre Brexit ) pounds because it is a matter of fact .
Regarding the "Mariam " iraq "unregistered ' charity some 84 k was apparently paid to his wife !
Nothing else to say really , the question was whether he was a true working mans friend , democrate and Brexit supporter .
Only the last one fits with me -and only for the time being I would imagine .

You should take more notice of George Galloway; a real worker's man. A true democrat. Anti EU.
This would not be the same Gorgeous George that was accused of honey dipping the childrens charity he set up in Iraq and sold off his house in a near half million quid /
A real working class hero !
Extreme Brexit could be worse than financial crisis for UK: BoE

Grouse , just thinking , in a short few weeks it will all be over bar the shouting , for better or worse and you will have to go back to your old life and being a normal person again ! Are you mentally prepared for this ?
