  1. Maybe they are secret admirers of you. You seem to have attracted a team that keep watch 24x7. I think that's a rare achievement enjoyed only by a selected few!
  2. You might find some useful info here.
  3. I cant imagine how you came to that conclusion, without any hesitation. Do you personally know them and heard their story? If not, I think you are the smartest to make this comment. When in a foreign country, it is nice to travel by public transport, walk, cycle, visit markets etc and mingle with the locals - just to get the 'feel' of that country. Unfortunately, what most foreigners do is to mingle with bar flies and condemn the entire country once they are drained dry.
  4. REALLY? Just get out of your high horse, you will then understand your arrogant stupidity.
  5. She was his caretaker. He was in a wheelchair. She was meant to check on him every day. - Are you a friend of the late gentleman and know all the details? Don't keep making excuses for these people. - What am I to gain by making excuses? Spewing out personal hate at a drop of a hat is a sick habit, and needs medical attention IMHO
  6. Indeed! In crowded places one has to be careful. But sometimes, we all may make a slip... just human. The feeling you get once you are robbed is terrible - no matter what the value involved. Just to feel that your privacy had been invaded...
  7. RIP Mr. Harold Jhon Milligan. A very sad way to pass off. We don't know any information regarding the arrangements Mr. Milligan had with the caretaker and how things were done on a day today basis. So one can add any nationality to your comment "Don't rely on Thais to help you even in your utmost time of need" and it will hold true. Random generalising is not very nice IMHO
  8. I have been here for decades mate. - but joined AN only in July 21, 2022? After the honeymoon? my flights are booked and I am taking a positive step in the right direction (i think) - When are you leaving and where i your next destination? I am sick of being treated less than human by the system and Thais in general - The system at your new destination is perfect? The locals welcome you? You've done the research? Would be great info others who've had enough of Thailand.
  9. A Pensioner received a letter from Bank Branch Manager stating " Thanks for promptly submitting this year's Life Certificate. But, sorry to inform you that we have lost your last year's Life Certificate in our Record and the Bank's Inspector has pointed it out in his report. Please submit a Certified copy of the same if available with you. Alternatively submit a Declaration that *you were alive last year also"* "Pensioners Reply" "Dear Sir, thank you very much for the acknowledgement of my this year's Life Certificate. I'm equally sorry to inform you that I do not have any copy of last year's Life Certificate. I'm also not in a position to furnish any Declaration regarding last year because due to my bad memory, despite trying hard, I'm not able to recollect as to whether I was alive last year or not. The inconvenience caused is deeply regretted. Best Regardsl
  10. If there is one, he had been resting for a pretty long time. These God's were invented by humans in the past, to control fellow human beings. If you do this, you will be punished. If you do that, you will be rewarded. The punishments & rewarding happen at random - so they say, your belief is not enough. Improve your belief. .... and it goes on, and on, and on. Just my 2 cents
  11. Sarah was in the fertilized egg business. She had several hundred young pullets and ten roosters to fertilize the eggs. She kept records and any rooster not performing went into the soup pot and was replaced. This took a lot of time, so she bought some tiny bells and attached them to her roosters. Each bell had a different tone, so she could tell from a distance which rooster was performing. Now, she could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report by just listening to the bells. Sarah's favorite rooster, old Butch, was a very fine specimen but, this morning she noticed old Butch's bell hadn't rung at all! When she went to investigate, she saw the other roosters were busy chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing, but the pullets hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover. To Sarah's amazement, old Butch had his bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring. He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job, and walk on to the next one. Sarah was so proud of old Butch, she entered him in a Show and he became an overnight sensation among the judges. The result was the judges not only awarded old Butch the "No Bell Peace Prize" they also awarded him the "Pulletsurprise" as well. Clearly old Butch was a politician in the making. Who else but a politician could figure out how to win two of the most coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the unsuspecting populace and scre**** them when they weren't paying attention? Vote carefully in the next election. You can't always hear the bells.
