Re: Xmas travel madness from the uk

Pain in the arse when you've been paid for doing nothing for the last 3 years and then you are actually required to do some hard graft for a living. I hope pubs, restaurants and every other service they use refuse to serve them for the inconvenience they cause everyone else.

Re: How long before visas become hard to get?

How long do you get on a tourist visa to Cambodia these days and can you extend it for a period of time ? At the moment is there an easy 60 day + 30 extension ? Not got any family ties to consider so I've never really worried about the possibility of being unable to meet long-term stay requirements ...

Re: Thailand Travel Restrictions and Info

Re: Soccer Football - FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022

Surprised at how poor Wales were tonight, Iran looked way more up for it by far the better side and a deserved victory. Fair play to comeback after their gubbing by England. Tasty final Iran v USA qualifying decider potentially in store. Senegal getting a win on the board for the African continent,...

Re: Soccer Football - FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022

Err, that wasn't part of the script. Glad I didn't stay up for it. https://i.imgur.com/eRIwiPI.png Just watched the replay Doc, if anything I thought USA were the more attacking team but no real clear cut chances. USA could be one of the teams that goes out without losing a game if they draw agains...

Re: Qatar in the Spotlight during the Football World Cup 2022

I'm not a fan of the increasing social politicisation of any sport, I prefer it to be an escape from the reality of the world's issues/problems but it should be a vehicle to bring people together. I can't help feeling there is a golden opportunity for England and Wales to make a tournament defining ...
