With world in energy shock, Saudi oil cushion gets very thin
Denim replied to Scott's topic in World News
I am done with speculations. I am now investing heavily in locally produced buffalo dung. I'm ahead of the game at last. Just got to figure out how to economically turn it into electricity.. My preliminary calculations indicate that 10 buffaloes can produce enough BS and methane to run my AC for a day. If only buffaloes didn't have to eat I'd be onto something. -
Shocking ! Whatever next ? Legalizing prostitution ??? No....that would be just too much. I can see the newspaper headlines right now . ' BANGKOK TO BECOME THE HUB OF PROSTITUTION ' ' The decision to legalize prostitution has been lauded and hailed then hailed and lauded by the TAT as a way of rejuvenating the flagging tourist industry that has slumped recently because quality tourists are staying away because of too many pot heads cluttering up the place and the dual pricing of hotels.

I'll agree with that and bore you all with my personal experience. About 40 years ago I went there ( Ko Samet ) with a Canadian biker friend. At that time the island was totally undeveloped. Getting off the ferry we got on the motorcycle trike ( only one ) across the island to the main beach. It was basic in the extreme and the bungalow we ended up renting ( best available ) was made totally of bamboo and thatch. This was elevated from the beach about a meter and there were no doors , windows or mosquito netting. Only other tourist on the beach was an attractive French woman in her 20's At night it was very dark with low 25 wattage bulbs here an there run by a generator. There were no cement buildings at all and only one place to eat run by the owner of the hooches. My friend and I got totally wasted on Mekong and weed and became very loud, much to French woman's amusement. By and by I was in a sorry state and crawled off into the night like Captain Oates to dig a hole and regurgitate the contents of my stomach. I had barely got started in earnest when a pack of wild puppy dogs emerged from the jungle to feast on the erstwhile contents of my stomach whilst also licking my mouth and face in eager anticipation of pudding I suppose. Both my friend and the French girl declared it the funnies thing they had ever seen because of my pathetic attempts to shoo off my new fans whilst simultaneously emptying my stomach. So....to sand flies. After this excitement I crawled off to my basher , drank a bottle of water and passed out. The next day when I awoke, my friend and the French girl were covered in sand fly bites which left nasty bumps all over them from head to foot like the chocolate hills of Bohol. I was completely unbitten.....not a bite on me. Which to me illustrated that sandflies can smell a <deleted> up fool a hundred yards away.

Best way to buy GBP cash?
Denim replied to MRToMRT's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
On this occasion we were staying 7 miles from the airport in a hotel in our old home town to visit friends and collect a car for our holiday. Normally we stay at the Hyatt Heathrow Hotel which is a 4 star hotel but provides no shuttle bus to guests. It is however served by the regular red buses which are free around the airport perimeter. But thankyou for your valuable input. Much appreciated by everyone I'm sure. -
Well, if implemented, which is doubtful, it will be a great boost for Air B&B . This government continues with its ' in out in out ' okey cokey machinations which only serve the purpose of illustrating what you get from a bunch of idiots with zero business acumen.

Oh yes. What a brilliant rip off scam that is. Fell into that trap myself at Heathrow Airport. It was 9.00 pm but to get on a bus to our hotel we each had to buy an Oyster card for 7.50 pounds each to make a bus journey the fare of which was only 1.50 each. -
Russia rejoices over Boris Johnson's downfall: the 'stupid clown' has gone

The joy before the fall. Similar to the Nazi reaction to the death of Roosevelt on April the 12th 1945. How did that play out for the Nazis. -
K-pop band BTS calls for end to rising anti-Asian racism

Oh no you won't. -
Yes it is possible. But .... if it breaks down , spare parts could be a serious issue ( regardless of assurances seller might give ). Resale value will also not be to good. A second hand jap bike in good condition would be a safer purchase.

BREAKING NEWS ! Boris Johnson to resign as Prime Minister
Denim replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
If that ever happens , the EU might want to consider that the UK might no longer be in a position to be a net contributor to the Union since it will likely be pretty broke by then . But the best thing to do right now is to give everybody the pay rise they want , regardless of how much that might be. Let the UK show Chavez that he was merely a socialist dabbler. The UK can do a lot better than he ever dreamed of. -
BREAKING NEWS ! Boris Johnson to resign as Prime Minister
Denim replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
Be careful what you wish for. When I look at recent history , sometimes a long desired for change , rather than ushering in an improved new era , actually leads to something worse. The predicament the UK is now in reminds me of humpty dumpties. A great fall coming that nobody will be able to fix. -

What to do if you catch COVID in post-pandemic Thailand
Denim replied to webfact's topic in COVID-19 Coronavirus
They were not elected in the first place. First they had a coup and later , in order to give themselves a thin veneer of democracy they shoehorned themselves back into power by eliminating other parties that posed a threat to their success in a sham election. -

A baby mouse in the school dinner? Netizens comment in droves
Denim replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Common delicacy in the Philippines called Balut. They wander around the streets selling them to the shout of ' Balut ' ......which is short and to the point.
