Further reply. You lot should know my blogs by now.They tend to be self centred, yes i know it, and fairly spontaneous, no not like the unmentionable one, blether has banned the name on general. More to do with daily life, of thoughts and memories.Stream of consciousness, of no great importance. Although i will admit that some comments, are far deeper than they may appear on the surface. I do not explain them, either you get it or don't, it is of no matter to me.
There may be references, which i know , but do not expect others to.There is a general flow.
Irritating i accept.
Glad mick sees through to the often humour.
I might be "serious" but those who do know me, will readily confirm that i am the first to laugh at myself.
Is that an apology?

To many to say sorry and mean it ie accept accountability is perceived as a sign of weakness, in fact its the complete oppositeIn a corporate work enviroment its a very powerful tool, as i learned from my mentor, some thing gone to shit, all the minnions sitting around the conference table arguing and playing the blame game, fingers pointing.... My mentor told them all to shut up, " sorry if was my fault" got up and walked out..meeting over, argument over, completely disarming all the managers and fkcers sitting round the table...they didnt know what to do or say  I agree with that, too be honest I can live with them. My problem is the company pricks who wont make a desicion and who think asking for advice is a sign of lack of knowledge and leadership and how it may affect their promotion chances. If I was ever faced with a problem I hadnt come across before, the first thing I would do is ask the lads, any of you ever encountered this before? If the answer was yes, ok, what did you do? Answer xxxxx, my reply ok have at it. If the answer was no, go to my boss and tell him I am ferked here and heres the reason why, please advise. |

I enjoy your posts up until you become that sanctimonious halfway that lectures us things like misogyny. As if I need a drunken depressive to explain to me the rights of my mother, sisters, and daughters. Just sayin" And not sorry for sayin"  And you have told me that i have denied my Thai son his British (scottish) inheritance. I don't mind you saying so. Even reflected on it. No family, close family in England, grandparents dead before he was born His grandparents there at his birth and there every day for him. As are the aunts uncles and cousins. Yes he has British citizenship, my wife does not. So i take him , minus his mother to poverty in England. Just saying. Yeh you did. And it's your fault for blowing all your money to the point you don't qualify to take your wife to the UK. Different matter if you never had it. You had it, and you blew it. |

I thought i explained my wife could not adjust to living in the UK. That was long before our son was born. By then i had settled in Thailand, had no desire to return to the UK. My son has an excellent life and that is my concern, not yours. I would never deprive him of the love of his family. As for blowing money. I blew it if that is the term , when i ceased to fight a legal battle over my (our) property in england. Handed it over to my sons. Started afresh here in Thailand. There is no way i would take my son away from his family. Why should i?
Just saying.

And this property is worth ten times more now than when i bought it. I bought it? No , that would be illegal. No it belongs to my son.
I am very much older than i ever anticipated. When i do die, then i have done all i could have to secured a sound foundation for my son and wife Family will see to that. Yes the Thai family, my family.
Yes we could sell and go to the UK, for what?
Just saying.

Definition of poverty .
Of not having the wealth, not money necessarily, of more than that. My son is Thai. His family is Thai. His friends are Thai.He is happy. What more should i desire. For sure his aunt, younger sister of my wife, sometime enemy, would never allow my wife , when i am dead, to jeopardize my sons well being. Neither would his uncle, wife's older brother and de facto head of the family.
There is wealth in the family as well as love.
What chance would son have in the UK? Poverty.
Just saying.
Have i ever said my Thai family was poor?
The family house is not quite so grand as ours, but it is theirs, as is brother in law's house, also extremely desirable. Then other family members, all very wealthy.
You bleth might be confused as my wife was once a bar girl. How that came about is a long story. Not through lack of wealth, more through her hard head and anger at abuse from her ex.
No problem bleth, it is hard to fathom.

I don't have any trouble saying sssssssssss. Saying ssssssssoooooooo. I don't have any trouble saying sorrrrrrrrr. Damn. You should have "trouble" saying sorry. Not just a throw away word. Sure we can use it like that, an accidental bump into a stranger and the instant response "sorry", well i do, inculcated in me.However stating, enough, i know where i was wrong , you do not need to save your face, i have done it for you, takes effort and is not a throw away. I do need to shave my face and will do it right now. |

Its Friday night....I won't be feeling sorry until the morning...If at all hehehe. You mean the shock of looking in the mirror late morning, the bloodshot (or is that bloodscot) eyes, the awful stink and the small gnomes hammering in your head ? Just take a bloody mary with lots of alcohol and you'll be all right  |
