UK expat pensioners in hua hin suffer from stingy uk government

hua hin, THAILAND Apologies to AWOL’s army of non-British readers, but this week’s front page story is specifically aimed at our British readers. Many of you will have either reached a certain age, or will in the next few years, that has been designated the official pension age, currently 65 years old for men and between 60 and 65 for women depending on year of birth. From this point, UK citizens are allowed to claim the State Pension, and other accrued benefits depending on the amount of National Insurance payments made during their working life. However, if these citizens do not live in the UK or certain designated countries (e.g the USA), they are not currently entitled to any increases in the pension awarded from that point on; Thailand is one of the countries that UK pensioners have their state pension frozen in. More than half a million UK expat pensioners are currently affected worldwide by this ludicrously unfair situation. Other countries affected include Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and India, and the British Government claims that the situation is thus because there is no ‘reciprocal agreement’ with those countries; however the UK is the only western country that does not upgrade it’s expat pensioners each year in line with inflation, so other countries do so without any reciprocal agreement in place. If you think something should be done about this, please sign the online petition at http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/38618 and spread the word to your friends and family. This petition has nothing to do with AWOL but we encourage everyone to sign. The UK’s Daily Telegraph has an ongoing campaign to right this wrong, and you can find out more on their website at http://www.telegraph.co.uk/expat/campaigns/frozenpensions/.

italy ’Fake pilot’ who travelled for free across Europe arrested A jobless man who posed as an airline pilot to hitch a free ride across Europe has been arrested, Italian police have confirmed. Wearing a homemade captain’s uniform and using fake ID, the 32-year-old Italian set up a Facebook page under the name Andrea Sirlo. Police were alerted to the scam after ‘Sirlo’ introduced himself as captain to an aviation lieutenant, who became suspicious of his young age. ‘On at least one occasion in 2012, pretending to be a pilot of a foreign commercial airline, and with a fake name, he succeeded in flying as the third pilot in the cockpit,’ police said in a statement. He sat as the third pilot on an Air Dolomiti plane from Munich to Turin in April but did not touch the jet’s controls, say police. The man, whose real name has not been released, has been charged with endangering air transport security, while further claims he hitched rides on other Lufthansa flights are also being investigated. The case echoes the film Catch Me If You Can, in which Leonardo DiCaprio plays a conman posing as a pilot.

auckland, new zealand Hospital removes ‘asparagus-sized’ eel from man’s bottom The unidentified man showed up at Auckland City Hospital’s A&E department last week to get treatment for his embarrassing problem. Hospital staff sent the patient for X-rays and a scan, which confirmed that the eel was lodged inside him. ‘The eel was about the size of a decent sprig of asparagus and the incident is the talk of the place,’ a hospital source said. ‘Doctors and nurses have come across people with strange objects that have got stuck where they shouldn’t be before, but an eel has to be a first.’ It is believed the eel was successfully removed from inside the man, who was later discharged. A spokesman for the Auckland District Health Board said ‘We can confirm that an adult male presented at Auckland City Hospital this week with an eel inside him. No further comment will be made out of respect for the patient’s right to privacy.’’ In 2008 a vicar claimed a potato got stuck up his bottom after he fell on to the vegetable while hanging curtains in the nude. However, it remains unclear how the eel managed to get stuck inside the man.

Do you wonder why we say certain things, or what they really mean? Each week we will examine a different word or phrase and tell you how it came about. This week it is... . Two phrases using candles Not worth the candle Worthless. This phrase relates to occupations, games etc. that were thought so lacking in merit that it wasn’t worth the expense of a candle to create enough light to partake in them. Candles were as significant a drain on household expenses as is the electricity bill today. There are several phrases in English that express regret at having wasted valuable candlelight. The best known is the Biblical ‘light under a bushel’, which appears in several of the gospels - for example, Luke 11:33 (King James Version), 1611: No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light. Stephen Gosson’s The ephemerides of Phialo... And a short apologie of The schoole of abuse, 1579: “I burnt one candle to seek another, and lost bothe my time and my trauell [work].” William Lambarde’s, Eirenarcha, 1581: I shal but set a Candle in the Sunshine. ‘Not worth the candle’ is ultimately of French origin. It appears in Randle Cotgrave’s A Dictionarie of the French and English Tongues, 1611, where it is listed as: “Le jeu ne vaut pas la chandelle.” Cotgrave translated that into English as “it will not quit cost”. The first known printed record of the phrase in English is in Sir William Temple’s Works, circa 1690: “Perhaps the Play is not worth the Candle.”

Burn the candle at both ends To live at a hectic pace. Our current understanding of this phrase refers to a life that is lived frenetically and unsustainably - working or enjoying oneself late into the night only to begin again early the next day. It didn’t having that meaning when it was first coined in the 18th century. The both ends then weren’t the ends of the day but were a literal reference to both ends of a candle. Candles were useful and valuable (see previous) and the notion of waste suggested by lighting both ends at once implied reckless waste. This thought may well have been accentuated by the fact that candles may only be lit at both ends when held horizontally, which would cause them to drip and burn out quickly. Nathan Bailey defined the term in his Dictionarium Britannicum, 1730, by which time the phrase had already been given a figurative interpretation and the ‘two ends’ were a husband and wife: “The Candle burns at both Ends. Said when Husband and Wife are both Spendthrifts.” Like not worth the candle, the phrase derives from an earlier French version. Randle Cotgrave recorded it in A Dictionarie of the French and English Tongues, 1611: ‘Brusler la chandelle par les deux bouts’. [To burn the candle by the two ends] Is there an English phrase or saying that you would like to know more about? Email it to us on submissions@awolonline.net

hired hands Paddy McCoy, an elderly Irish farmer, received a letter from the Department for Work & Pensions stating that they suspected he was not paying his employees the statutory minimum wage and they would send an inspector to interview them. On the appointed day, the inspector turned up. “Tell me about your staff,” he asked Paddy. “Well,” said Paddy, “there’s the farm hand, I pay him £240 a week, and he has a free cottage. Then there’s the housekeeper. She gets £190 a week, along with free board and lodging. There’s also the half-wit. He works a 16 hour day, does 90% of the work, earns about £25 a week along with a bottle of whisky and, as a special treat, occasionally gets to sleep with my wife.” “That’s disgraceful” said the inspector, “I need to interview the half-wit.” “That’ll be me then,” said Paddy.

Soi 94 Indian restaurant Curries from only 75 baht

Eat in or Takeaway 081 455 5298 Capricorn Dec 22 - Jan 19 Do not enter the courtyard in the center of the Pentagon. You are a demon, and the courtyard’s five-sided configuration will trap you in its confines for eternity. Aquarius Jan 20 – Feb 18 Despite what those eggheads in Stockholm say, you will feel no closer to your captors this week than you did at this time last year. Pisces Feb 19 – Mar 20 Try not to eat anything containing trinitrotolulene this week. That stuff explodes. Aries Mar 21 – Apr 20 An unfortunate typo in the instruction booklet for your new exercise machine results in your developing rock-hard Abs Of Veal.

Taurus Apr 21 – May 21 Your belief in the omniscience of God will be shaken this week when you happen to see Him lose 2500 baht in a street-corner game of threecard monte. Gemini May 22 – June 21 You will learn a little bit about other cultures this week when Rabbit, a Native American trickster god, drops a 10-ton safe on your head. Cancer Jun 22 – Jul 22 Your significant other will suggest that you both see other people. Put mace in the heater vents of his or her car. Leo Jul 23 – Aug 22 Life imitates art this week when you are lucky enough to witness two guys walking into a bar.

Virgo Aug 23 – Sep 22 Though society has long known the reason for shipping charges, you gain fame this week when you discover the rationale for “handling” charges. Libra Sep 23 – Oct 23 You will receive all the recognition you’re ever likely to get when you’re awarded your own star on the Hollywood Walk Of Ineffectuality. Scorpio Oct 24 – Nov 21 You will have a hell of a time explaining to visiting relatives why you’re being followed by the floating disembodied head of deceased comedian Frank Carson. Sagittarius Nov 22 – Dec 21 An abrupt lifestyle change will find you joining the skua, sheathbill and killer whale as the newest natural predator of the penguin.

Featured Game Sunday 30th September 2012 PREMIER LEAGUE Aston Villa v West Brom 22:00 Villa Park, Birmingham, England This week we feature a game that is primarily a classic Midlands derby, but with the intriguing sub-plot of the contrasting fortunes of new managers; Paul Lambert came fresh from a good season with Norwich to Villa, while Steve Clarke was the perennial number two before landing the hot seat at West Brom. Villa have struggled while WBA have soared, and neither are showing any signs that is likely to change soon. However the Baggies have not won away yet, so Villa fans can take some heart from that, and this is likely to be a pell mell local derby, normally a great leveller. We can see this ending up as a hard fought draw, with a few yellow and possible red cards scattered around both sides.

John Terry lifts world gloom by retiring from international football

london, england PEOPLE from across the world came together last night to celebrate and give thanks to John Terry for retiring from international football. Terry insisted his resignation was due to the FA making his position untenable, but admitted the fact that he has the turning circle of a hippo with a javelin through its head and none of his teammates can bear him had not helped matters either. He announced his decision ahead of the FA court case, sparking street parties, a moment’s pause for a brief prayer of thanks and a temporary ceasefire in many of the world’s trouble spots. Footballologist Wayne Hayes said: “I was watching BBC24 when the news broke and it was like the scenes in Independence Day when the alien ships start getting blown up at the end. “There were grainy shots of Amazonian tribesmen lighting fires in celebration, remote Tuareg nomads shaking rifles against the starspattered Saharan sky and all that was really missing was a bunch of Ewoks dancing around Han Solo. “But I think it was when I saw Benjamin Netanyahu hugging Mahmoud Abbas and the pair of them getting drunk together that I realised I was witnessing something special.” The celebrations were tempered with the realisation that Terry would still travel abroad for Chelsea’s Champion’s League matches. But the stock exchanges opened this morning to buoyant trading, leading economists to call on teammates Ashley Cole and Frank Lampard to make a similar gesture to help get the world economy back on its feet.

Treasure these moments.”
