No, I that one the Fire Extinguisher exploded, in this one the Home Made Bomb exploded, and they are surprised Liquid Fuel and Nitrogen in a modified cooking gas canister, what did they expect, and these are supposed to be the Fire Safety Instructors . Shakes head in disbelief

A few years ago, two Englishmen managed to get lost in the Sahara Desert. After three days, they were about to give up when they spotted a brightly coloured area on the horizon. Thinking it might be an oasis, they diverted slightly to get to it. It wasn't an oasis, but a form of travelling market. The two Englishmen hoped that one of the stallholders would have some water, so they approached the first stand and asked for water. The vendor bowed to them and replied "I have no water, but by the grace of Allah I do have sponge cake, tins of sliced peaches, strawberry jelly, custard, and cream." Rather crestfallen at this, they asked the second stallholder they saw. "I am sorry, but I have no water. By the grace of Allah I do however have sponge cake, fresh sliced peaches, orange jelly, custard, and cream." Feeling really worried by now, they found a third vendor and asked if he had some water. "Like the previous persons you have asked I have no water, but like them, I have, by the grace of Allah, sponge cake, sliced peaches and pears, lime jelly, egg free custard, and cream if you would like to try them." Feeling very depressed they tried the fourth salesman, who responded "It is most unfortunate that I have no water, but by the grace of Allah I have sponge cake, sliced peaches, mandarin slices, lemon jelly, custard, and cream for sale." This went on for every stallholder they saw, a request for water would be met with small variations on "I have no water, but by the grace of Allah I have sponge cake, sliced fruit, some flavour of jelly, custard, and cream." As they walked out of the far side of the market, the first Englishman turned to the second and said, "That was rather strange." To which the second responded, "Yes, it was a trifle bazaar." OK I will get my coat

It’s always confused me why people always say “But think of the Children” Whilst I am not saying we shouldn’t think about them, what makes them so special as to be singled out? You never hear Think of the Disabled Think of the Mentally Handicapped Think of the Pregnant Women Think of the Homeless etc These are also vulnerable people but no one ever seems to “Think about” them Maybe we should start thinking “About the VULNERABLE” and not just Children

Try and keep up

And it also shows the complete hypocrisy of Disney. Another one of those “It is Funny Because it is True”

Unfortunately a lot of people don’t recognise the difference Previously in History I have been accused of supporting the IRA in Northern Ireland and some people couldn’t get their heads around the difference in supporting the Republic argument for a United Ireland and supporting terrorism. I have always supported reunification if chosen via the ballot box at a referendum but against the IRA and terrorism. The same / similar is being used today, I support the Palestinian People, I their fight to have their lands returned, but I have nothing against the Jewish occupiers as a people. I don’t agree with Hamas way of going about it and they should have left it to the PLO who used to be defined a terrorist organisation but are now recognised as a political organisation, Just like Sinn Fein who were the political wing of then IRA but now have the majority in the Irish Assembly and have MP’s sitting in the House of Commons.

What did Musk say which was antisemitic? The tweet he agreed with stated ”Jewish people “have been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them.” Well when people like Noel Ignatiev, an American Jew best known for his theories on race and for his call to abolish "whiteness". Ignatiev was the co-founder of the New Abolitionist Society and co-editor of the journal Race Traitor, which promoted the idea that "treason to whiteness is loyalty to humanity", such as In This Article Now IMHO Ignatiev’s publications were “Dialectical Hatred” towards whites, Musk did not say “I hate Jews” which is antisemitic but that Jews were “Pushing the same hatred used against them” which is not antisemitism in anyway. Just another example of certain groups of people not listening to what is being said and claiming “Ooo he was being antisemitic” Grow the fuck up you woke bastards, just as bad as those claiming “White Supremacy” or “Male Patriarchy” it’s all in your heads. That being said, I still think Musk is a twat, but come on pick something he has done twatish to beat him up with.

Surprised that my “Hero” Grumpy Old Mam “Victor Meldrew was only 60 in the first episode and the actor who played him Richard Wilson was only 53. I need to practice my grumpiness to reach the standards set by Victor.

Well done good Sir

I meant they were toothless nothing to do with Wrigley’s And you off all people picking up on spelling “Mr phonemic awareness deficit” is a case of the Pot Calling the Kettle Black if I ever saw one

Only the “High Profile” shootings make the headlines, in the same week 2 people were killed ar Siam Paragon there were another 60 gun murders in Thailand, but Luong Somchai getting shot in Nakhon Nowhere or Bpaa Pornchai from Baan Nok are not news worthy since it doesn’t impact the HiSo image

FFS I was going to post a tongue in cheek comment about how Thais would be buying lottery numbers based upon this until I read the article and found that Thais were buying lottery numbers based upon this.

Nothing will change even though it needs to. Thai gun ownership is estimated at 15.1 per 100 citizens compared to the country most like to bash about gun control the USA which is 120 per 100 yet the gun homicide rate is similar 4.45/10 TH v 4.46/100 USA. So in Thailand you are 8 times more likely to be murdered by a gun owner than in the USA. Tourism Authority of Thailand never put that in their adverts for “Amazing Thailand” you will be amazed how many gum murders there are here but we keep quiet about.

Seems like NZ is becoming more like Thailand every day, do you have any ex leaders is exile?

Isaak Cox has no chance of travel then.

Less of the old, I am still in my 50’s and by definition am still “Middle Aged” I will be 60 in 4 months time but that’s by the by, but I am a trainee Grumpy Old Man, accepted, and should have mastered irritability by then You are doing well posting for a man who has been dead for over 25 years, Heinrich Schäfer (The Nose) did die in 1997 didn’t he? On the Thong Lo(r) / Thonglo(r) debate ( I prefer that word to argument) I stick to my guns though you are quite entitled to disagree with me and I would expect nothing less 555, and I mean that in a jovial way Even though in Thai there are no spaces, when Romanised there are. Another place name for you นานาพลาซ่า น = N, า = A so นานา is Nana, the whole is Nana Plaza, how do we write it in Roman script Nanaplaza or Nana Plaza? Or how about ซอยเจ็ด, Soi Seven again we don’t write Soiseven. I conclude my statement or if you prefer Iconcludemystatement. PS You can spell it however you like, it doesn’t bother me, I am not telling YOU how to spell it but how I spell it, please don’t tell me my spelling is wrong. It is rather like religion, keep your opinions to yourself and we will all get along😉

Thong Lo(r) means molten gold. As you are no doubt aware, since you profess to know everything, Modern Thai script, which was said to have been created by King Ram Khamhaeng in 1283, does not contain any spaces between words. Spaces indicate only the clear endings of clauses or sentences. e.g. น้ำปลา is Fish Sauce, in Thai no spaces but in Romanised characters we write Nam Pla not Nampla or สมน้ำหน้า (deservedly) is written Som Nam Na in Roman script and not Somnamna and so on.
