hello everyone, i got my new passport today because i had only one year left on my old one, and seeing as though im coming to Bangkok soon for a year or more, i thought it wise to get a new one now instead of trying to get it when i was living in thailand from the embassy.the point is what i got back was a very different passport to my old one.this one has a micro chip and a circular antenna on the back of the picture and details page.according to the leaflet this stores all the info on it so
im sitting here eating my bacon and egg sandwich and drinking my cup of tea (a sunday morning ritual for years) and reading the news of the world newspaper (crappy english sunday tabloid ) and im thinking life doesn't get much better than this apart from,1.

yesterday i uploaded some new photos on my profile and i got 2 responses by message.1 of the pictures was of the king and his wife, the thai flag annd also the queen of my country the queen of england.the first message i got was very possitive saying they liked my pictures very much , this was from a thai person,the second message was not the same .they asked me to take the picture down because its not appropriate for me to have it in my profile.i sent a message back and asked why, and i said i

alot was said yesterday about the charge going up in thai national parks, i still say 400b is too expensive and the goverment is being greedy.at no time in my posts did i belittle or abuse the author , all i did was read their posts and disagree with what they say .i am sorry i did not realize im not allowed to do this.i really do take offence at being swore at in a post , i really did not expect it on thailandfriends, not all farang think its ok to use bad language. if i had swore at the author
just a note to say about tomorrows sad anniversary, im sure most of the free world will be thinking about you tomorrow and the tradgic events in New York on that fateful day.i am not in total aggrement with Mr Bush or my own prime minister Mr Blair but none the less i still support both our fine countries.however unpopular our countries seem to be at the moment hopefully ppl will also not forget the sad loss of life on that day or the days in LONDON, MADRID and BALI, and also the innocent ppls o
