Can only be a good thing, albeit many young uns are addicted to their phones/social media and have head issues. Growing up, one of the worst things about alcohol is peer pressure. If you’re not getting drunk with everyone else, you’re a bore, ostracised even. To the point where it’s not worth going out unless to get plastered. Good to see attitudes changing.

You’ll still be able to get the benefits from it, and legally. Shops will remain open for those that conform, to get it into the hands of those greedy so n sos that don’t want to lose out, and also for the nation to save face. 😴 So at least there will be that. My so called ‘first world’ nation is a thousand years behind Thailand on that score… ruled by fuddy duddies and the anachronistic House of Lords. There is also the fuddy duddy element here of course, but money trumps all.

Oh dear, Thailand, what are you doing? Becoming <deleted>tyy and controlling does not a happy nation make. Would laugh my tits off if Vietnam went cannabis friendly and stole ALL their tourists.

Pretty funny. They might be woke types, but good on them after the rubbish he was spouting about the UK. I think he was visiting the Cotswolds. That area is stunning, not far from my neck of the woods, and a shame it’s recently been discovered by the masses. Kind of like hordes of belligerent Russians piling into Maya Bay, albeit sans beach and tropicalness.

I’d stick with the retirement option. Although more monies in bank, it is more straightforward at immigration… extensions done by oneself, one set of paperwork, stamp on the day etc. And yes, don’t bother with the OA.

… caused by villagers that strung up a cable! Alright they wouldn’t anticipate this, but Thais can be really switched off at times, esp regarding electricity. Even working alongside decent sparkies offshore, the shortcuts and nonchalance regards electricity is next level. If I try to explain it in the most polite way possible, I’m being ‘too serious’ or something. 😔 At least beastie would have gone out quick… four bare feet on the ground, good earthing. RIP my friend.

Line can be a right pain for sharing another’s contact.

What a pathetic waste of time. Trump is WAYY out of his depth. How could the leader of the most powerful country be so inept and capitulating? That little sht has steamrolled his way into getting half of Ukraine. Sincerely hope Zelensky tells the pair of them to go do one. Europe should grow a pair back, sideline the States and go all in to push them out—jets in the skies, boots on the ground. If it goes nuclear, so be it, because they’ll keep coming anyway. You want to win a war, you’ve got to be prepared to do anything. The US will never understand this mindset because they haven’t been invaded and their existence threatened. All their wars have been remote wars of convenience.

Guessing one is either very young or just (pre-industrial revolution) old. 🙂 Love vinyl... a track originally put down on tape, banged into a disc and then expressed through a valve amp with a decent set of speakers is one of the 'warmest' sounds one can hear... of a piece that was done the 'proper' way. Is that bi thing modelled on the SL1200 ?

It was 5% down yesterday! So funny. Shouldn't react as know the drill.

... because they send all their time staring at their phone in zombie mode. Very healthy.

No place for them in this society. He wants em to go by any means.

Stroll on! The sun will have gone through its red giant phase and firmly be a white dwarf pensioner by the time that chunk of S is with-engine and pops all its rivets! lol

Sorry, Thailand, but if you changed 2025 for 1925 it'd still be piss poor, plus you could get a F'kin beer back then!

Yep, same chunk of St bumbling about for two days which is why everyone flies for the same price in one hour, esp since you can't even drink a F beer anymore!
