Monday my Grandad goes to the Cobblers to collect his shoes:

The cobbler says. ''When did you fetch them in mate?''

Grandad says. ''Wednesday, March the 10th 1949.''

Vapour can still be inhaled into lungs, and the chemicals in the vapour are an unknown quantity in many instances.

Vapour: yes.

Dissipate: no. (Why would it?)

 

I find vaping much worse than smoking as "the new addicts" often do it continuously ... no idea to where I should move not to get hit.

Just get out of their personal space then, being vapour (aerosol actually) it consists of water droplets which quickly fall to the floor.

There has been an explosion at the cheese factory in France.
There is nothing left but de brie.

Things have sadly changed at Pine bungalow, I stayed there many times from '94 until they concreted the place and the dogs were always great, well except Diamond bless him. I stayed a number of times for three months or more and became alpha dog, the only people they ever chased were in Muslim garb no doubt brought on by the prawn farmer who often attacked them and even poisened some. So sad to see one of my past favourite haunts in the news for such a thing. RIP Thailand.

Personally I avoid buying palm oil products as much as I can, it's in so many things including all my favourite chocolate. I have seen the devastation it causes especially in Malaysia which has changed beyond belief since my 1st jungle trekking days in '66, and what is happening in now in Borneo and Sumatra is heartbreaking.

I can soon fix that:

 

Chimpanzees are clever animals; one of the few that makes tools. But one chimp was much better than the others; he made tools to eat with. One was a single sharp blade which he called his one-point-tool. The other had four prongs and he called this one his four-point-tool. Using them together, he could cut up fruit and eat it without any of the mess that chimps usually make. The rest of his troop were massively impressed and quite jealous; they all wanted the tools.

But one day he went to eat a mango, only to find his four-point-tool was missing. His first thoughts were that one of the jealous chimps had pinched it, but, after several arguments and fights (they were chimps after all) he concluded that it wasn’t one of them.

So off he went to talk to some of the other animals. First, he asked the lion if he’d taken his four-point-tool. But the lion said no, why would he want a silly little tool when he had sharp claws.

So next, he went to the elephant and asked him. But the elephant said no, why would he want a silly little tool when he had a trunk.

Finally, after asking all of the other animals, he found the jaguar who was smiling smugly. “Have you taken my eating tool, Mr Jaguar?” said the chimp. “Yes, and I ate it” growled the jaguar. “Why?” cried the chimps, in tears.

“You see”, the jaguar replied “I’m a four-point-tool eater jaguar”.

I had one of them, it didn't eat my tool but it did drink petrol ????

Well, even in the days when it was okay to smoke on airplanes, it wasn't allowed in the bathrooms because of the fire hazard that all the paper towel and tissue caused. 

Ah that'll be why there has never been a smoking related fire on an aircraft then. Ironically the environment on a plane is now much more hazardous since to the smoking ban due to the air refreshing being turned down to save fuel

I remember the days of being a smoker. Taking those long-haul flights going back and forth from NA to SE Asia were torturous sometimes, but I was never stupid enough to take that chance. 

 

I was curious about the penalty and see it was merely a fine, a scolding and on his way to enjoy his holiday. He must have been able to confirm reservations at one of the many hotels that are desperately in need of customers. Otherwise, would he have been shown the door out of Thailand? ????

 

And what happened to the "good guys in; bad guys out" rule for entry into Thailand. Here we have a person who has clearly shown no respect for a law made to keep people safe while flying, yet he's a "good guy"? But somehow, other people who have done noting more than try to spend a lot of (crime-free) time in Thailand using various visas and entry methods are deemed "bad guys" and turned away. I don't get it, but I don't think we're supposed to.   

 

'' Here we have a person who has clearly shown no respect for a law made to keep people safe while flying ''.....how so?
