StayinThailand2much Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 I'm surpr Just now, worgeordie said: 63 years of lies and half truths , unless in the early years they were different , I remember the time they used a Scottish beach ,clean with clear water , in one of their brochures, believe it was on Barra. regards worgeordie I can remember, years ago, that they offered statistics and graphs of monthly arrivals on their website. Then numbers fell, and such information was gone, just replaced by weekly headlines about numbers they 'were expecting'... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
