Over the years I have ordered 160+ items from Shopee & Lazada 4 have been crap, If that had been Temu it would have been the other way around.

Petition Ensure the annual pension increase applies to all pensioners living abroadWe want the Government to ensure that pensioners get thier annual increase if they live abroad in certain countries. Currently, some people do not receive increases even if they have worked 50 years in the UK prior to retiring abroad.

Let us get practical. My problem last week was that I had a 10-meter tree fall. This makes a lot of mess and leaves branches and a trunk, you don't want. A year ago I had 6 large trees cut down the workers took the trunks and large branches away. About 7 truckloads. They were supposed to clear the garden of all the smaller debris, as that was the deal, they got the wood free. They never came back, very normal with rural workers. What are you supposed to do with all this put it out for the garbage collectors? Many people will put rubbish in their trucks, drive down the nearest dirt road, set fire to it, or just dump it. In my village, there are small fires outside houses every day, collectively making a large area of burning matter. I put my bottles, cans, and any metal in a large bin bag, put it out on the side of the road, and it was gone within an hour and recycled. In England, I had a large plot and had to cut and clear trees, which you can remove and take to the local refuse and reclaiming facility. This is what is needed here. But maybe this is too hard technically for the government at the moment or maybe there’s no money in it for them.

Very simple to answer, yes you got old, many people don't!

In my time in America, I came across can't buy it at all, ( land of the free ) one place on my last vist I stayed at the Quality Inn, Seaman OH, couldn't have a drink with my food, but waitress said over the road they sell at the garage shop you but can't bring it this side of the road. About 350 yards away.

It warms my heart to think of the fear he is going through now, thinking he will end up in jail with a non-welcoming crowd.

efficientI left the UK at 58yo, in 2002 I was with Equitable Life, for a guaranteed payout when 60 yo. As members know they were going bust so we had a choice except a cut on our pension, or they go bust we lose everything. I lost £18,000. The government stepped in to sort it all out after 4 years of claiming, i got compensation of £345 the dragged their feet so we would all die before settled it's still going on and some of us are still alive. Then at 65 in 2007 I applied for my State Pension for Thailand, all very efficient , no problems at all. At this time, I didn't know about frozen pension. I was living ok, I had money to carry on. Then I started reading about the immigration into UK and how much the Government were giving them £49 per day. I wrote to the pension service about my pension, they directed me to the rules on being abroad and frozen pensions, which really make no sense at all if I had chosen to live in the Philippines, I would get the full pension. I have estimated I have lost out on about an average of 1500baht per month ( little for the first few years ) total would be about £ my pension is £107 pw, the state pension now is £169.50 per week if born before 1951, why? I have a short fall over the last 4 years of around £20,000. This is how our government treat its people like me, I never claimed benefits, worked all my life paying into the system. But if go into UK on a rubber boat or in a lorry and get £17,885 per annum, never having paid in a penny. Is something wrong here? I'm going back in April 2005 to claim my full pension stay 6 months 1 day, and come back to Thailand on a higher frozen pension.

About six months ago, I had the same problem, it was a door curtsy light switch. I ordered 4 from Ailexpress, changed them all, and that cured it. Big problem I have the same problem again, this time it's not the door switch, I have tested it with a multimeter; it loses about 1 volt every 30 minutes, i have tested it by taking all the fuse out one at a time, but it still drains at the same rate. under 11 volts iit won't turn over. Does anyone know what is conected to the power when the ignition is off? All I can find are the curtsy light, checked them all and and all seem ok, any suggestion would be welcome. Denis
