no, not in the slightest


just imagine that it was your child in the cave there, found by the sheerest luck and rescued in the nick of time through the expenditure of a huge amount of effort and goodwill - would you be forgiving the coach?


interesting also to see the use of cultural relativism - 'thais do it differently' - as a justification.

i don't know whether child endangerment is a crime in thailand, but it is also a place where feudal power structures persist, to the extent that no Thai may stand in the presence of the king, and of course a notorious centre of exploitation of women and children.

those conditions are more likely to account for the resignation and gratitude shown by the peasant families whose sons were trapped in the cave than 'buddhist forbearance'

You seem just lovely. If you want a good debate/argument, this forum will provide in spades, but really, why do you and two or three others get off on joining threads for no reason other than to call them boring, or "drivel" or whatever? Whom does it benefit? Does it make you happy? If so, seek help.

I am lovely thank you, and you're another person who delights in critical clap trap so don't bother in joining the bandwagon.

You just have to click on their name and look at their posts on the two forum games where they appear to spend most time to get a feel for what kind of person they are.

Ah yes, I see. A lovely person indeed, as lovely as a ten-year-old scrawling obscenities on a lavatory wall. Can't see a single comment that's not a stupid joke to attempt to belittle others or just to say that a thread is boring, or "sucks". Pathetically sad. Strongly suspect from their tone and attitude it's one of the previously banned come back in another guise.

i may have rushed to judgement KK, apols, and what i've since read about the coach's actions in the cave makes me reconsider my views a little bit - but no change in my total admiration for the rescue teams

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
