Why not just say thank you, if your parents taught you good manners, and just move on? Your ranting on about bans and warnings, when someone has offered to help your daughter and her obviously mad father out, just reflects badly on you.</description><pubDate>Thu, 18 Jun 2026 05:40:25 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>BBC in Trouble again.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396986-bbc-in-trouble-again/?do=findComment&comment=20558497]]></link><description>BBC caught out again.

It&#x2019;s easier for you to slide your finger down an inch to scroll past the 2nd and 3rd postings of your own post. It&#x2019;s not like you need to read them, I assume it&#x2019;s my single post response that you are interested in.  Allowing the bug to be seen on the screen may also prompt the forum promoters to rectify what I  assume is a bug. So some good may come of leaving  triplicated posts on view. But maybe that&#x2019;s just me. I prefer things to be fixed, rather than hiding problems.</description><pubDate>Thu, 18 Jun 2026 05:30:48 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Israel tries to sink Iran peace deal</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396852-israel-tries-to-sink-iran-peace-deal/?do=findComment&comment=20558481]]></link><description>OK.

So many more adventures, oh and I could mention that I played a good standard of football in England and was asked to go for trials with QPR (but decided against it because I was doing an apprenticeship).  I could go on, and on, but getting back to your point BM, and the one of Priorexpat, the target market would be potential visitors to Patong, and they really wouldn't be interested in my overseas adventures etc........but thanks for the suggestions!</description><enclosure url="https://assets.aseannow.com/forum/uploads/monthly_2026_06/04.jpg.94c457df80dd5400537144521c72ae12.jpg" length="59787" type="image/jpeg"/><pubDate>Thu, 18 Jun 2026 05:24:23 +0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
