You can get an extendable 60 day visa without having to renew.

Depends on your comfort zone. I wouldn't be happy as in my late sixties. Just the examples we have seen on the Internet videos of people being caught out is a sharp reminder that nothing is certain in life.

I think too many different reasons for the weak pound,so a hike in interest rates may not have much effect. Certainly a weak pound against the dollar which is used to buy oil, has added to the increase in fuel.

Used to in the days of Haynes manuals. But now just give to a garage I trust. Remember getting my gf to pump the brakes, when changing rubbers on brake master cylinder. Getting a dynamo from the scrapyard etc.. cheap and enjoyable. (Then)

Not nice to be subjugated to verbal or physical abuse for simply doing your job. Unfortunately, this sort of thing does happen frequently. Must affect your day to day confidence.

Direct with Emirates but as mentioned in previous posts, prices have risen considerably.

Trying to declutter the house of stuff. Cannot bring myself to throw alot of bits. Vinyl collection going back to my teens complete with beer stains, have to stay.

My early schooldays, witnessed a huge change and mix of music. Motown, Rock and progressive. . Seventies, some great rock bands, eighties, probably the years I enjoyed the most in terms of my own disposition, so enjoyed the stuff coming out then.

Just need some guys with hats and shotguns in the back seat.

Pounds and ounces, also currency could be on the agenda. IMO I think a bad idea, as the administration, conversion when trading, plus costs will cause headaches and cost too much. A Boris fantasy?

Great pictures of a bygone heavy industrial past.

I found after losing weight, suddenly life got easier. Problem clothes become redundant.🙁

Book only direct with the airline. This was a prudent move after getting a refund, also when canging flights after my mother dies while overseas.

Nursing a sore back. Overestimated my fitness on a long hike with a group. Cycling is OK though.

Yes but a long term benefit only assuming you dont pick ultra adventurous funds. Hobsons choice!

Couple of real ales lunchtime. Doom bar

Relaxing place during the day. Have eaten there and enjoyed. Music can be good too.

Any establishment that makes money will open. Just depends on who has the cash now to restart the venues. Many owners still paid rents long after the income was gone after Covid.

Its another symptom of just how desperate the Thais are to earn a living again. Problem, this scenario always prevails under such circumstances. RIP to the victim.

Had an exceptional episode of pain a couple of years ago. I dont know the direct cause but was told after a MRI scan my plates in my lower back had trapped a nerve. If I waked on my heels one would just flop down. Scary! Options given by a specialist to have an op but the risk list was really something I couldnt live with. Continued to walk gently at first but slowly improved. YOUTUBE helped alot following various exercises. Now I get some aches and pains but not dilapidating.

Remember a welcome upgrade from ME which was a dog.

Installed a towel radiator last week on my own. Real issues with getting all the rads hot again. Endless swithing on and off. But good now.
