To JoeDoc, the fight appears more to be between Mr plum and SJ and in my mind your comments are also way way out of line on this occasion. Ken - My comments are not way out of line. If you are reading only this thread I can understand why you made this comment but I have been persistently insulted ...

Sarge - I’ll give you some advice. You obviously have deep rooted issues and pent up frustrations. I’m sure you must have major anxieties and worries. You also say you've had 3 heart attacks. Coming on this forum every day trying to pick fights with fellow members can’t be good for your health. If y...

Re: Scared of doctors - or just being you?

Here in the UK there is still no routine screening for testicular cancer. Unlike the automatic 3 yearly calls to mammogram for women of a certain age - there's finally talk of doing the same for men and their private bits! They have to want to go though. At the moment this is a depressing subject f...

If you think you may have traces of heavy metal poisons in your body it may be worthwhile considering going on a complete detox program with a full flush out so-to-speak. Glad your feeling better Hhfarang.

junkies would no longer need to break in to peoples homes etc. to feed their habits. Why? Legalisation would increase the prices due to tax if anything. Portugal has already shown the way. They decriminalized all drugs 8 years ago. Despite concerns drug usage would increase, it actually decreased a...

These problems could be solved across the board easily. Legalize all drugs making it not worth dealers time to smuggle them and junkies would no longer need to break in to peoples homes etc. to feed their habits. Think of all the money saved by countries no longer needing to lock people up in jail f...

Unfortunately this was an accident waiting to happen. These southbound night buses are crazy and I'm pleased to see the traffic lights in Hua Hin are now working after 10pm, although I don't understand why these buses don't use the bypass road?

At least there seems to have been no fatalities.

Hmmm. At least it's current, it's news, it's related to Thailand and in the right section. Forgive me! Assuming you are referring to my post dated 4th July 2009 in the current affairs section, I would have thought discussing a news item taken from the news section of a popular United Kingdom newspa...

Re: British Businessman commits suicide in Sukhumvit

Caught my eye this one, everyday another "suicide". Never have I been to a country where so many "suicides" or "unfortuate accidents" occur. Also somewhere where investigators are so quick to call it such and close the case with little or no investigation. Don't even m...
