  1. You could have done both. I took 3 years off work to earn a degree as a mature student. Received a full Mature Student grant (UK) without having to pay a penny of my own money..........previous tax paying qualified me. It was ******* fantastic!
  2. There was a collision. Who gets to say that one or the other did the colliding? Looks possible that the tanker ran over a net and dragged the trawler against its side. Maybe wait until every voice has been heard before deciding whodunnit.
  3. Everybody ***** up sometime. You have to live your life....... not some fiction where you, as the hero in your private movie, always ends up "even" or "ahead" despite steering into the ****. Get over it, learn, move on.
  4. Classic Thai media image, a bunch of ignorant, gullible, superstitious people who have ****** up or been ******over: The Thai State breeds them to it.
  5. "Thailand is slowly changing, for the worse, before we know it, it will be the same sh*t hole I left to come here." "Where's he gone?" "Thailand I think" "Thank ******* christ for that! let's hope that's the last we've seen of the miserable old ****!" (Sounds of "tinnies" being cracked, laughter, etc......) Have a ******* awful day........"cobber".
  6. Everywhere that cannabis has been legalised has seen a rise in emergency admissions due to its use. The stoner view is as pernicious and disingenuous as was that of the tobacco industry when the reality of the dangers of cigarette smoking began to be revealed. It should be taken no more seriously than the exhortations of the alcohol industry for people to "drink responsibly". Three of a kind.
  7. Reactions to above post: Stoners confused?.......no surprises there.
  8. 10/10
  9. Re: Neutrality of Thailand. February this year: "At its resumed eleventh emergency special session, the world body adopted a new resolution calling for an end to the war, only hours before the conflict enters its second year on Friday. Tweet URL The results were 141 Member States in favour and seven against - Belarus, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, Eritrea, Mali, Nicaragua, Russia and Syria. Among the 32 abstentions were China, India and Pakistan. By the terms of the 11-paragraph resolution, the Assembly reiterated its demand that Russia “immediately, completely and unconditionally withdraw all of its military forces from the territory of Ukraine and called for a cessation of hostilities”. https://news.un.org/en/story/2023/02/1133847 Unlike last year Thailand did not abstain. Thailand voted in favour of the resolution. https://www.thaipbsworld.com/at-the-un-thailand-votes-to-condemn-russias-aggression-in-ukraine/
  10. To bond and create friendships with visiting Ukrainians?
  11. Yes.
  12. 1978, owned since '81. First of 3 C2 models registered in UK to Kawasaki UK, Slough. They were were the press/test bikes for model launch. Flat bars, Dresda arm, Hagons and gaiters fitted by me.
  13. Why? He, nor anyone else, is in danger, being harmed or threatened, nobody appears to be in need of care or succour. So he looks the other way and gazes into the distance.......contemplating the world and, perhaps, his own inner space, probably seeking to maintain an inner calm and remain in balance.......or maybe he doesn't even need to try to do that. He is doing the Buddhist thing. Something that nobody else in the story.......including those most outraged on his behalf......is. He is a lesson for them (and us) all, but, of course, they don't get it........poorly educated, shortsighted, ignorant, unsophisticated, stupid, undeveloped, misguided, self-righteous, hubristic, vain ****s that they are. Welcome to Thailand.
  14. And also about the kicks that their subscribers get...it's a transactional thing. Many of the OF people also stream simultaneously to Chaturbate as well.........so I am told. And it's free to watch there!.......erm.....umm....."so I am told".
  15. "A seal malfunctioned and seawater entered the hull during the maintenance On March 13." Translation: "It's sinking" Huge concern that this storage vessel might do the same: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FSO_Safer
  16. No, not "Random health checks". Regular, frequent, mandated, structured checks/assessments on all personnel........no pay-offs, wais and promises to not go on the rampage accepted. "Random health checks" means when they can remember/be bothered to get off their fat backsides.
  17. It doesn't take much "imagination" at all. Just a bit of "knowledge": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_ice_(aviation)
  18. I doubt that it arrived in that "formation". It is probably the result of small stones compacting together when landing in depressions in the ground, or piling on top of each other beneath sloping surfaces.
  19. In the dim and distant past I remember a Thai mother telling me that she hoped her infant daughter would grow up doing the same thing with me (watching UK TV) and learn to speak English well. A bit of a "Madame Butterfly" story (although not my child) was that particular time in my life. ????
  20. It is not "safe". You're living in the past (not a surprise on these pages). The psychoactive elements in it are far more refined, potent and concentrated than they were in......OMG, I'm going to say it....."My day". Any number of scholarly articles are available describing the situation now: "As the strength or potency of cannabis products has increased internationally over the years, so have rates of people being treated for cannabis addiction, say the authors of a new study....................Cannabis potency refers to the concentration of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in cannabis - the key psychoactive drug it contains. Recent studies from the same team at Bath have found that the concentration of THC in cannabis has increased significantly over time meaning that cannabis used today is typically much stronger than previously.........These findings may help to explain why more people have received treatment for cannabis problems over recent years. Data from the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction show a 76% increase in people entering treatment for cannabis addiction in the past decade." https://www.bath.ac.uk/announcements/high-strength-cannabis-linked-to-addiction-and-mental-health-problems/ https://www.rethink.org/advice-and-information/about-mental-illness/learn-more-about-conditions/cannabis-and-mental-health/ https://nida.nih.gov/publications/research-reports/marijuana/there-link-between-marijuana-use-psychiatric-disorders https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyt.2021.597725/full
  21. Airlines are transport companies.......get the vehicles, get the drivers (commercially licensed of course) get the cargo (and/or passengers) + staff to deal with it/them, get insured get the slots, line up access to fuel/servicing and maintenance facilities, sell the tickets.......off you go. No, it's not the country.......it's just you don't have a clue about the process involved. It's no big deal.......but you had better just stick to watching your favourite sport, in your favourite "Sports Bar".
  22. You think the Senate/PPP coalition are not corrupt criminals? What ******* planet are you on you deluded ****!?
  23. Coups had **** all to do with the "morality" of the Shins. They were too ****** popular. Anyone who's challenges the "Ancien Regime" is in the firing line. Did you not get the memo?
  24. What have the prices in 2004 got to do with prices compared among a group of countries in 2023, in order to find out what best deals are now?
