    Welcoming to foreign skilled workers.? Possibly if viewing it from a different angle. My immediate concern is that I may need an operation which is not going to be cheap, but will I be taxed on the funds transferred in to pay for it.?

    Unarguable rs logic, thanks for that.

    We are in a Brave New World with exciting new Vistas to be found and formed. It may take time to establish itself.

    53 killed on the 3rd day, which is over double the 1st day. Will the statistics suggest any explanation.
  5. saintdomingo
    I keep reading it's good for the liver.

    I was curious what sort of warrant they would have been arrested on and if anyone else remembered it. Can't find anything looking back through here, no problem just being nosey.

    Twenty odd years ago as a newbie I was at some function where the editor of a major local publication was present. He was rounded upon by people asking we hear so often of criminals being arrested, but why do you never say what happens next.? His response was simple "I would be dead."

    And sterling is known as GBP. You should be telling all this to the bozo who said that British referred only to Engish not to Welsh. Years ago living in South Africa we were referred to as UK guys.

    Anything more.?

    The terms Britain and British are internationally accepted alternative terms for the UK and it's citizens.

    Some months ago two brothers (drug dealers) from Merseyside were arrested in Pattaya. They were shocked at being arrested, I remember reading their response "we're wanted by the police in England but we've no problems here". I think they'd jumped bail but can't be sure of the status of their arrest or warrant. Anyone here remember or any ideas.?

    You may possibly be correct, or just as possibly wrong. What puzzles me is, if mentally ill how did he get the funds to come here and how did he have the mental capacity to organise transport and accommodation. If a long termer here he would know his way around and be aware of all the alternatives there were to his actions. Many logical responses to my points I am sure, and no doubt people to explain them to me.

    I agree and in particular the packaging waste annoys me. So many unnecessary bags and wrappings. One day it will be back to the old shopping bags. Individually wrapped and priced bananas do it for me, they are already wrapped in their own skins FFS.

    Sorry to wander a bit off topic but I had a pilonidal sinus many decades ago, before lasers etc. Right where the spine meets the bum. In hospital (UK) for 3 weeks after the op and off work for 3 months. I was told it may come back but fortunately never has. Nowadays I'm told it's a quick out-patient job.

    Well by and large the British have not plumbed the depths of making posts as ignorant and offensive as this one.

    A theory that appears from time to time but I read a debunking article stating that during the Vietnam war autopsies in the USA on young soldiers whose bodies were returned showed some very early indicators of prostate cancer. Sounds unlikely I agree so can anybody confirm or rebut.

    Beer is alcohol. Let me rephrase that beer is an alcoholic drink. But enough of semantics and word games.

    Incorrect Joe. True there is no sugar in most spirits whisky, vodka etc but plenty in red wine and beer. In Thailand there is one sugar free beer, San Mig Zero - zero sugar and carbs, 3% alcohol. Not many bars stock it, not sure about shops.
  19. saintdomingo
    I have seen the above theory previously (or similar) possibly on here and also seen it debunked. Who knows.? So all the sugar and additives in Thai food, especially 7, do not contribute much to diabetes.? Difficult to believe. Many medical conditions can be genetic, diabetes likewise, but this is not known to be a major cause.
  20. saintdomingo
    No, just go in the bar follow the sign to the toilet and when you're finished have the decency to buy a drink.
  21. saintdomingo
    Still think so, with the evidence in front of your eyes.?

    You said that "we" which includes you, do not want to be united but there was a referendum in which the majority voted to remain in the United Kingdom. So the "we" that you speak of has a majority that wish to remain United. You do not remember the above post so possibly you have a short term memory problem.
  24. saintdomingo
    I think this is from you.

    You know exactly what I mean, unless Scottie refers to a dog and not the place past Carlisle where I have many friends who are proud to be British and Scottish.
