Getting an email from the club with the heading Aston Villa v Palace highlights. Can I sue under the trade description act ?

Agree second place goes to Amazon....its the suze of the boxes that the order arrives in..
Yesterday ordered some printer ink arrived in a box big enough about 40 times bigger than needed stuffed with brown paper and the printer ink package hidden away like some needle in a haystack.

Eek. What happened?

Penicillin is your friend.

The usual evil, insane, self-righteous , twisted selfishness, ultra nationalistic, self obsessed behavior of 95% of the population while they stand there in their insane world believing they are perfect and can do no wrong stealing your kids. Endless lies that they actually believe are real.

Indeed, is there any meaningful difference?

Sorry to hear that. However long you live in Thailand, and however enmeshed your life is there and with Thai people, ultimately you are always a farang, an outsider.

It what it is but if you have children then that makes it far far worse. Like in many countries the richer the family the worse, and less excusable, the behaviour.

Thanks.

No doubt her , her brother , his digger and pretty much anyone from her family are a ultra spoiled rich kids parading as adults and have no concept of right and wrong but the reasons go far deeper - they are ultra salims and believe they are perfect no matter what they do. Smiling assasins. But then again that seems to be most the population certainly around here.

Wrong thread I know. In all my nearly 50 years of employment I have simply lost count of the bottles of Prosecco I have enjoyed at lunchtime.

Perhaps you should start a things that get you pissed thread.:D

My parents are currently visiting from the UK so the list could go on forever but I'll keep it simple.

Me, for thinking my relationship with my parents could ever be anything but toxic and investing time, energy and emotion on getting them to come.

I'm really sorry to hear this :(

Why is it so difficult to see a doctor! Ever since covid they want to push you to telephone calls. Then they do everything possible not see face to face. You used to phone up get an appt and saw the doc. Is it less doctors Is it more people? Earliest appt I can get is April 4th Mrs is ill After a morning on the phone we get a telephone appt after being 14th in the queue to even make it. How the hell can they make a diagnosis on the phone. I can see a trip to the hospital coming to even see someone.

Obviously I have no idea what is going on but I wish you nothing but the best, foxy.

Big hugs nino. xx

My wife actually got told to go to A&E by the GP receptionist because she couldn't get an appointment for 3 weeks. A&E staff said they get this a lot, and obviously it really annoys them because that's clearly not why they are there.

Tired, overworked, sick of being abused and of course our old friend Brexit, heard it first hand from a Portuguese nurse who quit after 20 odd years living anf working in London, 'don't want to live somewhere where I no longer feel welcome'

Thanks. :p

I think the whole medical profession needs redesigning. We appear to be still chasing making an ancient model that in truth was broken donkeys ago work in a way that can't be resourced and does it even make any sense any more?

The reality is that today we know of zillions of medical conditions and treatments and we expect a GP to study for years and years and remember all of that AND keep up with unmanageable levels of new data and changing opinons and then chat to you for 10 mins (if you are lucky) and diagnose you correctly? In a world of internet/video calls and databases I am not sure that we need doctors as know them but rather someone to lead you through a data driven diagnosis at best and perhaps often simple self service. I am not qualified to define the exact solution but I know enough docs etc to be pretty confident that it doesn't look like todays fractured service. It's currently a set of powerful fiefdoms which is part of the problem with making significant changes.

If there is a home for private medicine it's perhaps in re-engineering what this looks like outside of the inertia and constraints of the current NHS solution and then rolling it back across the NHS but it would be a bloodbath and a political landmine I am sure and beyond politicians these days it seems.

My daughter's SEN school was closed for two days last week due to teaching strikes.

Just got an email to say that they'll be closing certain classes this week too, due to lack of staff this time.

Waiting on a text to see if my daughter's class is one of the lucky ones.

WTF has happened to our country?
