They claimed non-receipt from VfS and suggested that it was due to ME using a third party agency! I pointed out that I was using THEIR appointed agents because the b4stards at the top would not allow us to submit direct online, like normal human beings.  My payment went through the next day.</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 19:28:43 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Word Association - 2026</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1383425-word-association-2026/?do=findComment&comment=20534265]]></link><description>Killer</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 19:23:12 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Thailand Restaurants Hit by Rising Dine-and-Dash Cases</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395872-thailand-restaurants-hit-by-rising-dine-and-dash-cases/?do=findComment&comment=20534264]]></link><description>Speaking of blanket conclusion without any facts.</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 19:16:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Vietnamese Workers Arrested in Bangkok Cannabis Raid</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395623-vietnamese-workers-arrested-in-bangkok-cannabis-raid/?do=findComment&comment=20534263]]></link><description>Just a sample of a "good mom's boy".</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 19:13:13 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Should UK ban Kirpan</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395882-should-uk-ban-kirpan/?do=findComment&comment=20534262]]></link><description>That include declaring war of scythe wielding druids?  The law doesn't exempt certain bladed weapons. But religious, cultural, or ceremonial dress, or for historical displays and parade are allowable defences. Reenactors are allowed to carry swords.  So, druids can carry scythes and swords if they can demonstrate a religious purpose. Scottish Sgian Dubhs (sock knives) can also be carried for a religious purpose.  Retired Gurkha soldiers can carry their Kukris at ceremonies such as Remembrance Day parades.  But maybe bread and veg knives ought to be banned?</description><enclosure url="https://assets.aseannow.com/forum/uploads/monthly_2026_06/knife-1920w.webp.30e0e83058cc0c25ea732fcd1bade39b.webp" length="14526" type="image/webp"/><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 19:11:12 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Henry Nowak alleged murder or self defense,News</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395152-henry-nowak-alleged-murder-or-self-defensenews/?do=findComment&comment=20534261]]></link><description>The judge has already come out saying the police were in a difficult situation and they did there best in the circumstances.</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 19:10:40 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Relocating to Thailand, possibly using an agent</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395912-relocating-to-thailand-possibly-using-an-agent/?do=findComment&comment=20534260]]></link><description>Financials aren't a problem but I think we've started considering using an agent after reading about others having problems opening bank accounts and long waits/issues with immigration. If the agent provided funding as well it would limit our need to draw down from our pension investments which would be a bonus.  We're really just looking to get our visas sorted as painlessly as possible.</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 19:06:14 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Rest in peace, Boonmee</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395930-rest-in-peace-boonmee/?do=findComment&comment=20534259]]></link><description>know how your feeling Jenson im a cat lover but 7 years ago i lost my best mate his name was Larry. I got him from a farm. He was a little black fur ball. after 4 years he read me like a book when he wanted out he would jump out of the window to do his buisness he wouldnt use the cat litter then he would jump back in. When friends visited he wouldnt move He knew it was his home. Then 1 day i noticed pools of pee and he was off his food after a few days i took him to the vet where they found crystals in his bladder and in his kidneys and sadly there was to much damage to his bladder and like you jensen i had the decistion to watch him suffer or put him to sleep i asked the vet if i could hold him when they injected him and seconds later he was gone, one of the worst things ive had to go through. I put some pictures of him in a frame with a little note and hung it on my wall that was 7 years ago and i have never had a cat again no other Cat can replace larry.</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 19:01:03 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Thailand Risks Falling Behind Vietnam in Economic Race</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395742-thailand-risks-falling-behind-vietnam-in-economic-race/?do=findComment&comment=20534258]]></link><description>One thing that hasn&#x2019;t been mentioned is the very bad seedy reputation that Thailand has. It&#x2019;s really over the top now . I don&#x2019;t know another country that has so much in your face prostitution, sex shows and even the beaches are over run by the lower class girl. It doesn&#x2019;t bother me to the extent of never putting a foot in again, but it does a lot of tourists. After 40 years I&#x2019;m vaccinated .  The well off quality tourists with or without kids just don&#x2019;t like what they see. So they go elsewhere.  Otherwise it&#x2019;s lack of good education,  impossible pavements and possibly the worlds most dangerous roads that annoy me the most.</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 18:57:50 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Henry Nowak alleged murder or self defense,News</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395152-henry-nowak-alleged-murder-or-self-defensenews/?do=findComment&comment=20534257]]></link><description>One has resigned already.</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 18:51:10 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>American Tourist Found Dead in Phuket Hotel Room</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395876-american-tourist-found-dead-in-phuket-hotel-room/?do=findComment&comment=20534256]]></link><description>Michal Hutchie from INXS passed in a similarly tragic but mysterious way.

Your sources have told you that already, but you omitted mention when cutting and pasting.  Russia tried sending some of their canal tankers out into the Black Sea. They sank.  The US might be operating a naval blockade of some sort in the Gulf. but I am not aware of them interdicting truck traffic either side of Iran's land crossings. Are you suggesting they should engage in air strikes  against road traffic in Pakistan, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Armenia and Azerbaijan, a significant widening of a conflict.</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 18:43:57 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Word Association - 2026</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1383425-word-association-2026/?do=findComment&comment=20534252]]></link><description>Pain</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 18:31:05 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Word Association - 2026</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1383425-word-association-2026/?do=findComment&comment=20534251]]></link><description>Chest</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 18:25:09 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Hua Hin Airport Upgrade Targets International Flights</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395834-hua-hin-airport-upgrade-targets-international-flights/?do=findComment&comment=20534250]]></link><description>There goes the neigbourhood!</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 18:20:35 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>UK Life Certificate</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1386741-uk-life-certificate/?do=findComment&comment=20534249]]></link><description>...and perhaps there was no possibility of any "court action"</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 18:16:21 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>irans  navy hiding in the caspian sea</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395787-irans-navy-hiding-in-the-caspian-sea/?do=findComment&comment=20534248]]></link><description>You actually think warships are actually cargo ships in disguise.

And to Bazza, someone else said it better than me, so this is a copy and paste. So it is not only me:  Henry Nowak&#x2019;s devastated dad begged people not to use his son&#x2019;s murder to create further division, hatred or tension.  Within hours, Nigel Farage and his Reform circus dropped their sleazy Emergency Address full of pure cold rage and two-tier Britain garbage.  The family made it clear. They hold the killer 100 percent responsible and want proper action on knife crime.  But of course Farage could not help himself. This is textbook Reform. They swarm all over a dead teenager like vultures because it fits their narrative perfectly. Zero respect for the family&#x2019;s wishes. Zero shame. Just another opportunity to whip up more anger and division to feed their votes.  Disgusting. Absolutely shameless exploitation.  Henry&#x2019;s family wanted change, not your culture war grift. Have some basic decency for once.</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 17:48:10 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Where do Phuket residents buy good quality beef?</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395884-where-do-phuket-residents-buy-good-quality-beef/?do=findComment&comment=20534245]]></link><description>Might check Villa Market.</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 17:47:47 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>What New Computer Setup?</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395421-what-new-computer-setup/?do=findComment&comment=20534244]]></link><description>Yes, it tells me that that people either didn't check all the posts by the OP or that they are simply obtuse. Take your pick.    There's no penny dropping for me. You are just making excuses for an entirely useless post. The display is NOT the most important part of a computer setup and it doesn't tally with the OP's budget anyway. Perhaps you didn't realise that I was trying to be nice, rather than to suggest that your whole post was completely idiotic.  Either way, you seem to be in good company on this thread. &#x1F609;</description><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2026 17:39:49 +0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
