I will correct and retract my previous posting as I have further information. The King DID NOT get an increase to his income. The government reduced his income from 25% to 12%. I don't see that as that would impact on the poor and needy, that is more down to the ID10T Chancellor who wouldn't know a penny from a pound.

The Government didn't give the King an increase as such. They didn't take so much from the Duchy of Lancaster income, which belongs to the Royal Family.

Five years!! How generous! If the labour louts get their feet under table next year, I feel sure they will be begging the IMF for bale out like they did in the 70's, within 3years. A lot of things have changed since then, but labour are still very good at spending other peoples money and totally perplexed when it runs out.

That statement is a long way from the UK I have known over more years than I care to remember. 60 years ago I would have agreed, but now the country is on a very steep slippery slope to hell in a hand cart.

Funny how it just came over very cloudy, and I swear that's a flock of pigs up there.????

Honest and reliable... About as honest as Dick Turpin. As to reliable... The only thing that could be relied upon, would be doing the same thing to some other unsuspecting soul.

I actually like Phuket. Its the people I can't stand????

Well Jeepers, where did they find those creepers????

Hit them where it hurts. Guilty by association.

Surely you mean 1688?

That is very carefully worded, but nevertheless holds a very distinct threat.

Hi Sheryl. I don't want to go into too much detail, but I attended a hospital here a few weeks ago and the price quoted to shave some hard skin on the side of my foot was to say the least ridiculous. So, I asked my son to do it with a large rough foot sander. Unfortunately, he went at it far to vigorously and took the skin off the bottom of my foot, not the hard callous. Needless to say it is quite raw although not bleeding and makes it very difficult to walk. I have used Derma Huw cream and Reparil Gel but to no real effect. Any suggestions gratefully received.

Anyone know of Podiatrist in Khon Kean? Different problem but its a Podiatrist that's required.

I have to wonder how many palms were greased to get the result the Senate wanted?

Little boys trying to play a mans game. If there was brain cell between them, they would argue over who's turn it is next.

Some banks here can be a real pain in the neck sometimes. In many cases its the language barrier, or being fobbed off with any kind of excuse because either they can't be bothered or don't know. As to updating passports, my original passport number of over 20 years ago is still required for some transactions within the bank KTB, usually when requesting the Immi letter and/or a new passbook. Why a passbook is required is beyond me, as in the UK they went out with button boots/the old Post Office savings A/C. A bank statement of the past 12 months or more can be requested via the App. But,TIT.

And some people cannot think and then become aggressive. I will make a note to ignore you in future and perhaps you just might go away!

Only stupid people do that, so what are you suggesting??

If using a Laptop at home for any length of time, I usually remove the battery and work off the mains with a UPS.

Omeprazole is about as much use a boobs on a fish. Try Lansoprazole/Prevacid@15mg 30 minutes before your last meal of the day 6:30to7:00pm, BUT do not DRINK alcohol after this! The recommended time is before breakfast but this I find is wrong in that the reflux usually occurs at night. If 15mg doesn't work then move up to 30mg. Tomatoes, cucumber and other acidic veg and fruits are your worst enemy. Keep a bottle of the attached by the bed, it works wonders.

£35/year for a local UK number plus £10 for calls. Most UK calls this way cost approx 1.4p per minute per call anywhere in the UK, 24/7

I would second that, but it might cost me.

Complain to Agoda not the hotel.

"WHY"?

I would say, 'Do you want to bet', but gambling is illegal at present!
