Trump wins on the Stormy case as sentencing delayed "indefinitely".
Have you got anything that would (a) justify your bizarre claim and (b) help some of us understand what you mean? -

Day-to-day life in Myanmar
[quote] ... What is your assessment Simon? I do recollect you posting many years ago that you had enough of Thailand and was planning to move to Myanmar. ... [/quote] Well, checking where I've been living since 2012, I note that the majority of my time has been spent living and teaching in Myanmar, followed by Laos and then Thailand. I've been a teacher in Yangon several times, Mandalay several times, then Naypyitaw and Mahlaign (spelling?). Myanmar is never my idea of a retirement or leisure destination! I go there to help with student education. The lack of decent amenities, hospitals, retirement visas etc rules it off my list. My plan is still to eventually retire in the Philippines (index-linked UK pension), but I find that I do not feel ready to retire. It's National Day on Monday next, so the amount of anti-junta activity will probably increase. Yonks ago, , I established a very small enterprise called Xtrer (XTRER), whose modus-operandi was to generate small but regular amounts of money for under-privileged families living in developing countries. "A little xtrer helps" was the company tagline, and I realised that you do not need to throw $$$ of cash at a project, in order to get results IF you cut out the middlemen and those charity workers who were greedy, lazy, and exploited the local women (or men) etc. Back in 2012, I used to see the charity workers from the big-name charities securing all the rooms in the 5-star hotel in Yangon, occasionally venturing out in their brand new landrovers for a spot of shopping. I found it disgusting! I went directly to the school book supplier, negotiated a large discount (because I was using my own cash to buy and donate the books), and I was able to help deserving students by creating mini-libraries of the books required by the school syllabus at each school or orphanage. This cost me only a small amount of money, but would make a big difference in the student's education 🙂 Here's one of these mini-libraries at SaMa Mountain orphanage in central Myanmar. There are other friends of mine also living and helping in Myanmar, and making a difference to the communities that they help. It doesn't require much money, just the desire to help 🙂- 1

This is what Brits fought for
My solution is simple: Dump ‘em! And Dump the other scammer (Ukraine) too! US Constitution offers the best advice: Do NOT get involved in the affairs of other nations and I’m adding 😁😏 Take care of our own FIRST - pour resources into helping our own flourish & prosper. -

What is a Proper English Breakfast?
Justs two % more protein, means alot more clean meat, and less additives. A good sausage have at least 50% meat, and that should be right on the 13% protein mark -
