  1. think most bikes do PD... With the Honda click 125 the bike has to be put on the centre stand to use the kick start though, If i'm remembering correctly...haven't seen the damn thing for 5 years... the important thing is... are you confident riding a mo bike?
  2. you will be rushing to next meeting of the Flat Earth Society... well you won't be rushing anywhere Big T... are you allowed by your betters to leave the house yet? But, bloody hell Annat!....you have been reading my mind.. [don't go in there too deeply though, it can be murky waters] I had the idea of either joining the Flat Earth bunch, or alternatively taking up cricket instead.. Both anachronisms really.... Seven, seven, Seven.... if you are reading this....please find me a cheap place anywhere in Scandi, or Holland.... i really need to live somewhere where people are no longer scared of their shadows in the dark.
  3. yes of course, but even with all the masks, lockdown hoo-hah...isn't it still doing that anyway [killing people]?. Most flu-type virus are designed to either affect the old or sick and hopefully give future immunity to the young. Lockdown's etc are just delaying the whole thing. And please don't have a go at me for that comment above, it's not hard-hearted, just true. I'm in my 70's now so i guess a prime target, but hey-ho... it's the price that has to be paid... [maybe]... but i certainly don't believe that young people with families should now be going hungry and out of work with little future, just to protect the ones like me, that have already lived their lives.. Just be thankful that Ebola wasn't a good traveler. But, back to Josh... he was recently very helpful to me although i didn't really know him. I wish him well with whatever he does in the future.
  4. wrong BIg Trev.... Covid itself ripped nothing apart. The knee-jerk overreaction by the Media, Government and others ripped everything apart. And still is continuing to do so. Too high a price has been paid and is still the tip of the iceberg. If Covid had been ignored and allowed to do what nature intended it to, all would have been continuing as normal, i.e as before the new abnormal.
  5. nice to see the two sisters back together Emmy!
  6. those of us that live here see the damage Big Tel. it isn't good. you are bang on.
  7. sounds a bit too intelligent for me BB... more like a Quinn-ism, after a few Sangsoms.. [with a subtle embrocation of spices from the orient lingering among the aftertaste of sweet and sour tempting the palate with rosewater and cinnamon as the soda provides gaily effervescent bubbles to enhance the gums with bouncing explosions of pure pleasure and pretentiousness...].... god help me, save me from more advertising sewage.......
  8. wrong side of bed this morning? Nothing to do with 'policing' i'm sorry to say. Quite simply that i can't access facebook, nor ever would. Hence the title of the thread...General Playlist You Tube Music. Emmy makes the playlists from music within youtube and stores the playlists on youtube. Simple as that. No need for drama or acronyms either...I can speak English thanks.
  9. no good Nosher, sorry.... has to be from You tube to go on the playlists that Emmy creates within YT...
  10. conspiracy theorists don't need actual evidence Ozzie
  11. "Einstein disguised as Robin Hood, with his memories in a trunk, passed this way an hour ago, with his friend a jealous Monk. you would not think, to look at him, but he was famous long ago, for playing the electric violin on Desolation Row ". Desolation Row. Bob Dylan.
  12. yes...i think i mentioned it before, but will do a reminder. Emmy keeps a bluetooth speaker behind the bar for customers to use to connect to music on their mobile phone. if you want to use it just ask for it. I should say though that it is programmed not to accept country music..... until 10 minutes before closing time that is... no-need then to shout 'Last orders'... people will naturally go very quickly.. wi-fi is also up and running.
  13. Yes, thinking about Thailand in particular, it's not always deny or ignore, it can be different medical practices. About 4 years ago i was hospitalised in Issan for almost a month unable to breathe . QG may remember this from our other forum days. no coughing, sneezing, phlegm etc etc, no flu symptoms at all... just unable to get oxygen in to the lungs. therefore, couldn't walk couldn't do anything. 2 stairs were like climbing Everest. To my horror i was diagnosed with C.O.P.D. This is a long story, i may explain further in a post if anyone wants to know details... but to cut the story short eventually i recovered. The point is though long after i had improved a English woman i knew...ex-nurse... got a chest infection., went to the local doctor who told her 'you have C.O.P.D" to which the nurse replied "bollocks i have! i've got a chest infection." The Doctor then explained... "in Thailand we call any Bronchial disease except Pneumonia and asthma... C.O.P.D. It's a general catch-all name . This was great for me- it explained the lack of symptoms i had, because i didn't have C.O.P.D at all, but...any of you issan residents who share land with hundreds of scrawny thai chickens, if you want to know the details just ask and i'll post the story..
  14. well, if you meet up with QG, Seven.... make sure you wear a Hazmat suit or he'll be yakking you! Sweden didn't do so well for their over-65s bbg, so you might be better in los than there .. didn't i read that Sweden admitted the failure to protect the old-folks homes? but nay matter...that is what Covid is designed to do, cull and make room. [sorry.. hard but true]... ... along with every other flu type virus in history. And there have been many... it's just that with others there was never the mass panic we see now with covid.. i just wonder how many of these official covid figures would normally be booked under the usual suspect annual, bi-annual cold and flu virus deaths. Quite how they reach these covid definitive figures in places like South America and Africa. Even in Europe? i don't know.. does every dead person get autopsied? i think not. i recall my sister telling me that her son, a severe asthmatic had covid....nope, he had a bad cold. however if he does die of something in the next few weeks ...he then for the record died of Covid. South America, Africa? ... 'let's bull up the figures, try to get some American sympathy money.' ? ? Take care boys.... wear a piece of placebo cotton over your nose... all will be well. actually i've discovered that if you cut up a piece of your old boxer shorts with a couple of pieces of string... you know the kind of shorts i mean, with a fly-hole?... it's great for us smokers, you can drink your beer through a straw too! there is always a ray of light in adversity... think positive. i hope to god i never get Covid.... QG will never shut up about it!!
  15. well i'm impressed Seven, but then again i always have been with the way Sweden handled things. Believe me, if Sweden could be towed a couple of thousand miles further south into warmer climes... i'd be living there via the first flight over.
  16. i don't believe anything.... until i see an updated graph from QG!
  17. you'll see no doom and gloom about the actual covid bug from me QG. only from the stupid actions of men causing all this mayhem.
  18. not nice to hear about the closure. not my fave bar but an original well-known name. i suspect the first LB bar i ever visited....am i right it was originally across the street from where it is now? But just one of many doomed i fear... things, as you all no doubt know...are very bad here in pattaya, and getting worse all the time..
  19. They should offer her a position in the recruitment office....
  20. NO!... seems to be mainly on baht buses nowadays. Really what is the point? When there is officially no Covid here. I note that 7-11 are still doing the ray-gun to the forehead temperature thing .WHY? Family Mart have mostly stopped.
  21. I was talking to a BM yesterday about Emmy's party and one thing was apparent to both of us. To give a good party it is not necessary to make peoples eardrums shatter and bleed. The music was set at a sensible level, people could talk. Is Emmy the only Thai in Thailand that understands this? Those awful Karaoke things are not needed. The house music system is quite enough. Well done Emmy.
  22. why you say that Emmy?...nothing went wrong! it was a very good night indeed. Well done! No need to Give Jimbo a 'chicken head' by the way.... there are more pictures of Jimbo on the forums than Teya and Lily! Everyone knows him... Although...with the weight he is putting on, you might need to 'chicken stomach' him! anyone wondering about the lack of people by the way, most of those photo's were taken very late, after midnight. You can tell from the 2nd photo...Teya wasn't posing... she was hanging on to save falling down..
  23. yes you could be correct Seven... i forgot about Albania...
