  1. And strange to say, this is Thailand, and how often are rules followed??!!
  2. "What happened to the word "mate"?" It's 6 letters away from hate, so, a little dodgy?
  3. Just what is it that makes some folk better than others? Should we start a list!?
  4. I have come to the conclusion, this I d 1 0 T is an asylum seeker of a straight jacket, with a spit protection mask. Not seeing its postings of total nonsense would be such a relief.
  5. Try visiting Khon Kaen. You will find staples are easier quicker and cheaper that paper clips. When politely asked not to use staples, the venomous look I got from the IO was worse than any snake. And he still used a staple. I have stated here recently, the passport is the property of the issuing government and it is illegal to deface it.
  6. They appear to be making a good try at doing so.
  7. That would depend upon the diagnoses. It could be wrong. Mistakes can be made, anywhere in the world, unfortunately.
  8. But I guess you haven't met them yet!?
  9. Yes, its the same one.
  10. Yes, it could. They were offing to have a photo taken sat on a crocodile, and of course my 9 year old grandson was all for it. It didn't happen and i am please to say he is 38 now!
  11. My best experience was some years ago at the crocodile farm in Samut Prakan. Watching the crocodile show with my grand children, I had put my camera on the seat next to me, and on leaving just forgot it. I was more interested in making sure the two kids were safe. At the exit I was approached by a Thai guy who asked, 'Have you lost something, sir'. I realised straight off, my camera was missing and said so. He produced the camera, and pointing to the coloured sticker on it, and the one on my chest, he said, 'Had to be you, sir'. I tried to offer a reward, but he very politely refused and walked away. That camera was not cheap, and I consider myself very fortunate to have had it returned. More so due to the photos in contained.
  12. You are missing the whole point. 'FARANG" translates to "FOREIGNER", so what is your problem?
  13. Up to now, but it will change if barmy starmer has anything to do with it.
  14. I had cataracts seen to 3 years ago. At 81 it was the best thing ever as far as I am concerned. Prescription glasses previously were a right pain, but I have 20/20 vision now. As to depth perception, don't worry, it's like having eyes of a ten year old.
  15. Sounds very much like socialists will be running the country again. It is a well known fact, socialist governments always but always, run out of other peoples money.
  16. Late receipt of funds into a Thai bank is not always the sender at fault. In most, but not all cases, it is the Thai bank withholding the funds. I transferred money from Revolut to Kasikorn on Tuesday at 09:10. Revolut stated within minutes it had been received by Kasikorn. However, it was not transferred into my account until Wednesday at 12:15pm. This has happened on one or two occasions with Kasikorn and with KrungThai. I can't speak for Wise as I have never used them, but did have similar instances with Nationwide Building Society UK in the past.
  17. So, you knew Mr Pretti, did you? He was trying to help a lady who was clearly in distress. Does that warrant murder in your book?
  18. I am more than pleased you are not my brother! I would be a sniveling wreck if I had to listen to the garbage you continually spout?
  19. Sounds like you have had a good time up to now!
  20. From what I read in the post, sounds to me like you have always been a miserable old sod. Leopards don't change their spots. I do hope I never meet you, or if I have you possibly got the full serving of cold shoulder. Tongue pie has been on the menu occasionally, but is normally reserved for special occasions.
  21. The photo shows a typical mad man on an ego trip. At most he can only fire two guns at once So, whatever is the point of the others? Well over the top for a normally sane person.
  22. If ever the thought of, 'You couldn't make it up', comes to mind, Just watch Thia news outlets and watch it happen.
  23. A vote buying scam if ever there was one. 99% of the people will go for it, in hope!
