Or perhaps they're simply not interested in attempting to fix the problem. Quite possibly they are inept and disinterested but I doubt that, their hands are tied by their government. At least they are trying to do something while you were accusing them, falsely, of doing nothing, that was my point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe pathetic, the scores of Australians who refuse to vaccinate scared of a bitty needle? they believe crackpot conspiracy theories? well, they refuse the jab, but also refuse to get out and protest against their government, so the penal colony will remain just that. so yes..definately, Pathetic is a fitting word.

Popular Post James105 Posted July 16, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 16, 2021 “It's now very common to hear people say, 'I'm rather offended by that.' As if that gives them certain rights. It's actually nothing more... than a whine. 'I find that offensive.' It has no meaning; it has no purpose; it has no reason to be respected as a phrase. 'I am offended by that.' Well, so f$&@ing what." - Stephen Fry 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They never produced fruit and eventually died when about twelve metres high. A lack of regular rainfall I'm guessing. But when in season they are available here in Sattahip and cheap. I guess they are grown in the durian area of Rayong. Off topic maybe but as pom, just coming the raw prawn.???? Grow from a seed 99% will not produce fruit. You have use a growng twig from a fruit producing tree and graft to your seed tree when it's about 60cm high.

You could get some from an 'orchard'??? that grows avacodos, also when we can move freely again some road side places selling plants do sometimes have them. We got a 40cm grafted rambutan tree on the road to Koh Chang. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They qrrived home on Wednesday. We have been told the weekly capped numbers of Aussies allowed back in Australia has recently been halved. There are apparently 40k waiting to get back in, if you believe that, although its strange they have been quoting that same figure for some time now. Exactly how long the wait is to get into a quarantine hotel is, i dont know. I guess it also depends on arranging a flight to coincide at the right time. But any news/information that doesnt fit the panic narrative is not exactly welcome here in Australia. If your friends were able to get in that quick, its good luck to them. We have heard stories of many people having to country hop, running out of money, while they are trying to arrange a flight and quarantine to syncronise getting back into Australia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low infection rate and just about the lowest death rate in the world from covid. All of which means they were slow to take off with vax. Plus the EU stole a couple of million AZ vax that Oz had on order ... I don't know if you are Aussie or not you been away to long, yes we might have a low rate if the kept the boarder's closed. We have the poly's running around playing god and changing their minds on Covid so much crab comes out they must have to carry a 10pk of undies around with them.
