Re: Baltimore Bridge collapse

As for my English being criticised by a YANK is no criticism at all !!

Why should I bother I read the same sources as you do, maybe und...

Re: Baltimore Bridge collapse

IT was known PRIOR to sailing that this ship had had power problems which although might have believed to be okay still manifested itself into a major power loss at a critical time. So although a decision might have been made , ZERO efforts were made to mitigate a possible problem. On a small boat, ...

Re: Getting ready to make the permanent move to Udon Thani, Thailand

NOTE, if my memory serves me correctly, driving here on a UK driving licence is I believe illegal if here permanently after 6 months. The THAI driving licence requirements are so easy that failure to get one is illogical. PLUS getting a THAI IDP is not difficult either, I believe it lasts on year. C...

Re: Getting ready to make the permanent move to Udon Thani, Thailand

A Thai IDP isn't required to rent a car in the UK. Wrong. Depends on the company. Need to read Terms and Conditions. Agreed, but it's not a legal requirement. Yes agree, however if your UK licence have expired as I would suggest most over UK citizens over 70 may have been. Then acquiring a THAI IDP...
