Thanks to safety belt I can write comments on TV. Media should educate people not just publish reports because of reports.
I agree entirely about the importance of seatbelts and the media should encourage the use. We know the law and police are useless at enforcement.
The incident I remember most was an accident I had as a young driver in the UK. It was just before seatbelt use became compulsory. I was always keen on using one.
I was driving a works van and giving someone, a lift as we went to collect parts for the job.
I had got fed up of trying to get passengers to put their seatbelt on, before it was compulsory not everyone was interested. The guy asked my if he should, and I said it was up to him. He decided to put it on.
Half an hour later I went round a bend on an open fenland road too fast. The back end spun round and we hit the grass bank sideways. The van rolled over and landed upside down.
We were hanging upside down. We managed to undo our seatbelts and got out unharmed.
The recovery vehicle driver turned up. Every second word of his was an expletive - he was unable to believe we had both walked away from the written-off vehicle.

Why you should never name your son Clint
I went to school with someone who had the worst of both worlds. His name was Clint Bates.
He not only had the Clint 'misspelling' joke as above, as a kid he was known as Master Bates.

But but but - they have never ever been defeated by a foreign power. ????
You're right, it was one way to avoid defeat, by 'allowing' them in and not fighting with them (after the first five hours).

It's very easy - just book a place and time from this website https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/coronavirus-vaccination/book-coronavirus-vaccination/ - millions have already done this.
Why can't it understand my Thai address when I put it in?

Gonna try to get a deal on some extendable garden cutters.
I'll see what I can come up with.
I don't mind a bit of Chinese. Some of their stuff is very nice.
Don't let Mrs Owl hear that!
Or it will be curtains for you - with no one in them.

They look robust enough. Let you all know after trials at the farm.
Took me ages to see clearly when I zoomed in (second line of text at the bottom).
They're made in China.

You must be wrong, I thought they were punctual and took charge.
When the Japanese invaded in 1941 it took only five hours to find Prime Minister Field Marshal Phibun Songkhram, in order for him to make the decision to tell the military to stop fighting.

This can't be true? We have been told on a quite a few occasions that the government have it under control.
I'm not sure which one is a contender for fake news now.

Hua Hin: 5,800 people have registered for vaccination slots in June - foreigners in August
in Hua Hin and Cha-Am News
Posted
Yet a different answer regarding foreigners registering. This is from a local Thai journalist.
Judging by what's been happening so far: We need government officials and bureaucrats to give as many different combination of answers possible in the next few days.
