Thailand Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Only another 20 points or so and it will be at the level when we arrived and made our plans. Along with that,fixed pension and other unexpected events puts a little stress on some. Anyway,small murphy's. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JonnyF Posted July 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 9, 2021 This is great news for many (although not for me). I remember one column of Project Fear was that the pound would crash to 30 THB post Brexit. Yet here it is at 45. Up 10% and climbing. Funny that... 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
