You think there's many Chinese members on the board ?
To me all Chinese New Year is is one royal pain in the arse as for me it simply an annoying disruption in the manufacture availability and delivery of various goods from China to the UK. i mean how DARE Chinese workers, after being stuck living in almost slave like conditions in dormitories all year and working on factory floors dare to take a week or two off once EVERY bloody year ! And all just to attempt to go home and see their families - and all when there's still plenty of orders for Cheap chinese copy goods to be made for the rest fo the world to buy up ! I'm going to have a word with Donald and ask him to speak to his best mate President Xi to see if there's not something that can be done to see can we not put a stop to this inefficient waste of time immediately !

Unfortunately the Year of the Pig is unlikely to be a happy one for many Chinese pig farmers. African Swine Fever has already meant the cull of a million pigs. There is no form of prevention apart from expensive bio security measures and no cure. ASF has devastated pig farming in Russia over the past ten years, halving pig production in total and consolidating production in the hands of those who can afford to implement the bio security measures. Many have lost their livelihood. The same will happen in China. Source: The Economist for 2 February
oh wow...this must be a record...how did we go from chinese new year to african swine fever...
Easy answer, frequent!

Freaky loves to keep dropping in the names of the newspapers he reads.
I often wonder about his early morning posts.
4 hours after Australian time, before anybody in Pattaya ,there he is again posting
Maybe the former priests and brothers who are now 'retired' , may be used to these early morning activities.

You are not the only one to wonder about the Freeks posting times. Assuming (now be careful here) he really is in BKK then he must be an insomniac.
Alternatively if he is in the USA then he keeps regular hours.
Which would one believe?
You may have missed my post yesterday in the “Roya House massage” thread, #157, copied below.
“””Well that is a very interesting comment Sglad. In fact it made me draw up a list of some of Frequents more prolific posting times in the last few weeks.
