Australia is a world away from the UK, and although your scenario is possible it is quite rare. Although from what I read in the UK news, it is getting worse. The reason for that? Who knows, but lack of discipline from an early age is a good instance.

The OP has been seriously misinformed here. Depending on the reason for a call out, almost all UK police cars are equipped with firearms and a trained firearms officer. Unlike a certain country, the UK police do not go in heavy handed, guns blazing, to a domestic disturbance, when there is no necessity. However, there are times when armed police are in plain sight, which in most cases is a deterrent.

Light travels faster then sound. Which is why some people appear bright, until the talk to you!

Hydrogen Peroxide is a BLEACH and can do considerable damage in the wrong hands. As to ones ears? No way!

I use TunnelBear and have no problems at most times. Sometimes slow at 08 to 08:30, but mostly TunnelBear does not interfere with my UK connections.

Not surprised its closed, I can remember it from 30 years ago.

I last used TNT and the documents were received in the UK DWP within 4 days. The cost is not much more than the EMS Post, but much quicker.

I remember a song entitled, 'Anything Go's'. Perhaps that's title of the book the RTP uses?

Ah! You mean like nailing jelly to a tree?

It not the Mods one has to worry about, just look out for the Rockers!

As do one or two other countries around the area.

Taking the shopping list to the local corner shop with the ration book, every Thursday. Buying 2 OXO for half penny on the way to school The winter of 47 Devastation of being caught in the tin bath by my sisters friend at the age of 7. I didn't know things back then! Following the dust cart hoping to collect the horse manure to sell @ 3pence a bucket full First visit to London 1951, first train ride, first sight of an escalator and first sight of a TV 2 days off school due to death of King George VI Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II Things have changed. For better or worse? 50/50 is my guess.

That is for local business/property tax, not income.

Some see those doing what they think is good, turns out to be really really bad. Its the do gooders who are causing the main problem, and some.

No, No, No. A convent in Christchurch, possibly?

Where are the strings and who is pulling them?

Have you seen the inside of trump's head? Not a pretty sight, or is it?

I don't drink beer, its not that I don't like it, it doesn't like me. It has me running to the loo every five minutes about half way down the bottle. A good Gin, Rum or Whiskey and I'm fine for the evening. Wouldn't touch the stuff in the day time. Each to their own.

I don't see the option for FREE lessons, so this is obviously an advert for classes. Perhaps there's a desperate need of cash?

Your paper was spread all over the road this morning!

I for one can understand his frustration. Being a little disabled myself, it can be very annoying with someone stood behind you, muttering and tutting. My attitude then is to go a little slower, knowing their time will come one day. My sincere hope is that their problem is five time worse than mine. Being Rampant Rabbit must have disadvantages, I guess?

The later in life you get, you may not think like that at 80+

Some 15 years ago my wife and I went to the local Amphur for a yellow book. Asked the man what was required and given a short list of, Passport translation to Thai and photo copy of marriage license. He explained where the translation and copy shop was. Returned to the Amphur office about an hour later. 'Come back about 3 o'clock he said. 3 o'clock we were presented with the Yellow book and told we could get the Pink ID card from the office across the hall. All done and dusted and on our way home by 4pm and only 560Baht lighter. I have been reading here all the cock and bull some have to go through for a little yellow book and Pink card. Why Oh why, do the Thai people have to make such a big deal out of a very simple exercise!

That sound like it might be expensive. Principals can be a fine thing until they shatter.
