Thanks for your replies, I have told him this before but he seems to have a romantic idea of sitting on the beach being fed food by young ladies in bikinis I shall give him the address for Bangkok Hospital 😉

Thanks, but he is looking for one of those vendors that rent loungers and make food, 25 years ago there was one in front of Central that I used but I dont know of any that I would trust now

A friend of mine will visit soon and wants to spend a few days on the beach in either Pattaya or Jomtien. He wants to hire a lounger and eat and drink there. I have bought drinks on the beach but generally avoid eating there, does anyone know a place where the food will not put him out of action for a few days. He loves Thai food chilli etc so no problem there Just dont want him spending half his holiday taking Immodium 🙂

I understand what you are saying I guess they want everyone on the same type of visa as running 3 types, let alone the sub-types is not easy or fun, but screwing the customer over in the process is very typical of the non-rational thinking that I ave come to expect

Many years ago the Elite visa was without an end date, when they brought out the previous visa they tried to get them to change to a 20 year limited visa, not popular now they are trying to get people to move to the new visa, shorter life, more costs I believe the Americans call this a "no brainer"

Yes new series of the farm is due, plus maybe a reforming of the trio for a new Top Gear, although I doubt that will happen

Wat Boonyakanchana Ram, Nongprue, Bang Lamung, Chonburi is a very long winded way to say Patttaya

Surely if you are aware that you are or were on a blacklist, you would have been advised for how long you would remain barred unless you did something criminal normal overstay excetera has a finite timing

i feel happy for you, today I found an idiot who doesn't understand sarcasm, perhaps you should find someone to pick on who is dumber than you, but that might be difficult

Oh how I love sweeping generalisations, of course only idiots make them

This December marks the 29th anniversary of the Budapest Memorandum, in which the United States, the United Kingdom, and Russia provided security commitments to Ukraine in exchange for the latter joining the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) as a non-nuclear state. As part of the agreement, Ukraine relinquished the third largest nuclear arsenal in the world (which it inherited from the U.S.S.R.) and Russia agreed (among other things) “to respect the independence and sovereignty and the existing borders of Ukraine”. One could question why people sign treaties just to ignore them when it suits

I would bet the house that 1000+ Russian oligarchs who bank in the Schweiz will not allow him to upset their bank accounts, many still have non-blocked bank accounts there amounting to billions in assets

Based on history, no world war ever crossed the Swiss borders, you don't bomb your bank I guess Napoleon was the only one I recently recall, Caesar too, but that was before Switzerland got into banking

I guess the biggest difference is that with restaurant food you have some chance of them washing the utensils and plates properly

I am never too sure if things are getting smaller or my eyesight is getting worse as I age

Then came the Millerites in the 1800s, convinced the world would end soon, something that the Mormons, Seventh Day Adventists and the Jehovah's Witnesses have played with Despite all the BS today with "global" wars ready to start any moment, I assume I will live out my days in happy oblivion

yes never did quite understand the scissors, just a waste of space in my opinion

Christians believe that the world will end with a battle between good and evil, and that this will happen in northern Israel let's hope that the head of Hezbollah doesn't read this In Christian apocalyptic literature, Mount Megiddo, the hill overlooking the valley, is identified as the site of the final battle between the forces of good and evil at the end of time, known as Armageddon and mentioned in the New Testament in Revelation 16:16.

Now you have opened the knife I can see the difference , visually from the top unopened they are the same, will stay with my Pioneer as i dont feel the need for a tiny tree saw 😉

unless its much bigger than the picture suggests in Switzerland its a PIONEER ALOX https://www.victorinox.com/ch/en/Products/Swiss-Army-Knives/Medium-Pocket-Knives/Pioneer-Alox/p/0.8201.26

The large metal one you have is called a Pioneer or sometimes a Soldat, standard Swiss military, I carry the same model all the time, as an offensive weapon it sucks, by the time i can get it out of my pocket and opened i would have been beaten to death 🙂

Maybe you should do some research first, Iran are Shiite, Hamas are Sunni and yet Iran supports them with guns, money and training Iran originally only supported Hezbollah who are Shiite So nothing is as simple as you seem to think just proves the old adage, the enemy of my enemy is my friend

according to the left leaning BBC News not all Aussies do, particularly those who were there before your ancestors invaded and colonized the large island https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-66944609 and if you would care to notice I am Swiss not English, we don't have a House of Lords, we don't even have lords, we are probably one of the only true democracies in the world

Seems to be a lot of denial on your side too, looking diligently for videos that support your one sided view does not make you right, its just an opinion, as for your racial paradise of Australia how is the Aboriginal equal rights vote going, didn’t notice any Xenophobic comments from your average Aussie ???? Truth is if you look hard enough you can find something to support any argument , doesn’t make you right, just makes it your opinion And for you the grass will always be blue

Its another deja vu moment from Goat, do you spend your hours Googling ways to dislike the English, I would suggest therapy you will be so much happier
