  1. You where lucky. the car had a chipped windscreen when you accepted it. You did not follow your own advice and had it recorded and photographed priof to signinr rental papers. Same applies to renting motor bikes or Jet skis always check and record any existing damage.
  2. The difference about aging in Thailand are the opportunitys you have to enjoy your advancing years. The weather is good to enjoy exercise walking or swimming everyday. Affordable golf. You also have the option to have female company if you wish. Private healhcare is expensive and the wait to see a doctor at a government hospital may take hours. However in the UK it would take weeks. Accomadation and food is reasonably priced. All in all lots to enjoy for us old timers residing in Thailand.
  3. The Election result was not all 'gloom and doom' even for the Dems. Trumps win hastens the departue of Helen Dis en generous to the UK. Win Win for everyone stateside.
  4. The foreign legion receives public donations to help ex servicemen often homless and destitute in the UK. In the meanwhile the government weclcome thousands of mainly Muslim immigrants to hotel accomodation, food and weekly allowance at the taxpayer's expense. This should not be allowed to contiue.
  5. A win for common sense. How many people have hoped a partner in an illicit affair would remain quiet. Ie. Bill Clinton and Donald Trump. Note: Don't be unfaithful if you aspire to be presidential.
  6. The law has turned into being an 'ass' in the UK. Arresting people for hurting someones feeling in a text years ago. In the meanwhile Muggings, knife crime and robberies are everyday occurrences. The woke brigade have overtaken common sense.
  7. No suprise here. Personal physicians, gourmet food, personal hairdresser why shoudn't he pay for the five star treatment he received.
  8. With so much opinion on vegitarian diets these days it's a fact that many prominent succesful people eat hamburgers every single day. For example Warren Buffet one of the worlds shrewdest investors eats McDonald 's hamburgers every single day as does the future president of The United States. Forget your vegitarian diets the way to live longer and be succesful may be the humble hamburger and chips.
  9. Compared to the outgoing president Trump looks a picure of health.
  10. Flying the flag for a decrased convicted transgender peodo is more proof the world has gone mad. JKRowling is under constant criticism from the woke media for expressing her views. Opinions the the majority of sane people agree with.
  11. The real loser in this case is the recent purchaser of the property.
  12. Pleasing to see a Thai person making a legally correct formal complaint against police corruption and to the correct authorities. I hope he is rewarded for his brave stance against police extortion.
  13. Thaksin and his cronies want to control the Bank of Thailand in addition to the countries finances. The Bank of Thailand has aways been independant of Thai politicians and rightly so. Now Phue Thai politicians some with criminal convictions want to exert control over the banking system. In the past Thaksin with his Phue Thai populist policies have cost the country billions of Baht. It would have been much worse without independant bank control.
  14. Typical arrigant Russian. Obviously at fault here and should be prosocuted for causing the accident and leaving the scene of an accident. I hope the Injured get compensation.
  15. JK Rowling has a perfect right to express her opinion on the absurd transgender movement and hope she continues to do so.
  16. I would vote for him. Direct no nonsense people expressing an honest opinion are rare in UK Politics.
  17. There are many stories of people buying derelict homes for a pittance in Spain, France and beyond. Unfortunatlya lot of the stories outline some of the difficulties including local red tape and hostile reception from the local residents.
  18. People voted for the removal of illegal immigrants from the US. That was a major vote winner in the Trump manifesto. Now he has a clear mandate to do the job i wish the 'snowflakes' would shut up and let him get on with preperation for the job.
  19. Permission for western missiles pemitted to be fired directly into Russia is an escalation of the conflict. However this will strengthen the bargaining power of President Trump when he assumes office. Ukraine have been resticted to retaliation with one hand tied behind their backs for too long.
  20. There are a lot of buisness premises in the vicinity of Chaing Mai Gate with 100% Chineese signage. i understood that all business signage in Thailand had to have some Thai Script included. It would appear these establishments cater for Chineese customers exclusively and should be investigated for at the very least for illegal Thai nominees
  21. The current resrictions are adequate. The problem is the wiley Chineese and others take advantage of lax and corrupt officals.
  22. Don't worry your brother will find a way to short cut the justice system for you. he' an expert at it
  23. l feared the worse. Thank goodness he was not a Brit.
