Well it pays not to pick fights you can't win that's for sure whatever the circumstances. I'd sure as hell stay out of most Thai on Thai disputes. That's a surefire way of getting a pack pasting.

Perhaps he was trying to shag it?

Hopefully.

More likely a higher sense of civic duty - not an easy thing to do. Takes a lot of guts to be the first bystander to take action. Most people are all jointly frozen - there's an expression for it, can't remember what its's called ... perhaps someone else can.

My thought exactly - took action instead of filming it. Actually quite heroic under the circumstances. I was once told that if someone's too big to take from the front then take 'em from behind. It's safer and why should you risk your own health for a POS like that? The idea is to put a stop to his antics as fast as possible without anyone else getting hurt.

Actually I regretted later not putting a question mark after that. It was intended as a joke and not a statement.

No. The joke is the weak loudmouth braggart that Putin just owned and the Saudis just bought that you lot installed in the WH. You STILL haven't grasped who'll pay those tariffs?

It.

Same here - when I used to dabble I always took dancer from a gogo bar. Never had a problem - except they tend to swing emotional handbags. Needs some nous and experience to deal with. And anyway, when I think of some of the diseases that must be lurking in the dinge of the coconut bar, amongst the ladies, boys or regular (LBs don't float my boat anyway) then I'd just rather not. That place'll be the source of the next pandemic.

Would be my choice as well except UK rail 'services' are the abominable, overpriced pits at the best of times. Personal experience before anyone asks. Abysmal. Last time I was in UK traveling widely hired a car in Brighton. Brought it back after a week and headed up the hill to Brighton rail station to get the train to London City airport. Willing to pay their extortionate walk-on prices as well. Rail services were so catastrophic (didn't know when they'd be running at all) they made it impossible to guarantee reaching the airport in time - due to 'leaves on the tracks' in bloody autumn would you believe. I walked back down the hill and rehired the car I'd just brought back and raced up the m-way to make the plane barely comfortably. Pathetic. And that's just one example. Anyway, had hired a Golf Diesel that performed like a sports car but with the consumption of a moped. 50/50 m-way and urban all the way to Midlands and back. Sorry I can't remember from whom - probably Avis. Possibly Hertz. Didn't feel cheated.

Why would any intelligence service issue fake PPs instead of pucker gen originals with the bios and false name of the holder/agent. Doesn't make sense. They have access to the real things. No need to risk fakery.

Nah. Then he'd have had a real Israeli PP in a false name not a forgery or tweaked one matching someone else.

50 years apparently. Perhaps that's the gestation period for unicorns.

Bears no relationship to the woman I observed during the campaign whatever her qualities.

A man who kicks a kid in the back of the head to achieve an aim is by definition a bully. And all bullies are by their very nature cowards.
