I reckon some of these big corporations must have whole departments nowadays staffed with numerous people just fielding complaints.

Yes, they're called diversity hires. HR staffs are full of them because they have no other skills.

Why it’s high time for a gay Love Island

"From Playing It Straight to Towie, queer people haven’t always had it easy on reality TV. But times are changing – and ITV has a chance to lead the way"

There's an island in the middle of your pond no?

[stattointhailand]

there should be lesbian love island.

Err ..... a few years too late on that one I think

Lesbos

The island is widely known as the home of the ancient Greek poet Sappho, from whose association with homosexuality the word lesbian derives its modern meaning.

Took a holiday there once on Ryanair. A bit overrated IMHO but that was the only non-stop.

Visited a few of the Greek islands as a teen package tour hols... Rhodes , Zante , Corfu ..some tales to tell marvelous times.

Never ventured to Lesbos ... which gets a mention in this classic Bottom sketch with the late Rik Myall (Richie Rich) and Ade Edmundson (Eddie Hilter) who is playing Richies wife to get a free break at a hotel. ... full clip worth a watch ... if not your thing 2 minutes onwards on gets in the Isle of Sappho mention.

NOTE .. dark /strange sense of humour required

I think you will find Lesbos is now over run with economic migrants , basically making it a no go holiday destination .
I went years ago and really liked it , very quiet , and yes it was then full of lesbians .
Favourite Greek island , Kos .

Never heard of this person and, no wiser from the article if he's a man/woman or a woman/man (I did get bored halfway through the article though).

Either way he needs to get a dictionary and review words such as "crucial" and "important".

Born a female. Came out as gay seven years ago, transgender last year and recently gone for the "double-tops" so that the 3-piece suit fits better... well, the top bit anyway. I wonder if she dresses to the left or right?

"Page said it was the "little things", such as being able to wear a T-shirt."

Hell yeah!

Should such a dictionary also include a definition of "personal"?

Here's today's little snippet for the "Woke and Easily Offended" out there. Most of these phrases wouldn't be seen in regular UM banter and probably more infrequently in our regular face-to-face conversations but it just goes to show what some people consider as important advice and post on the internet these days.

As my dad used to frequently say when I tried to get away with something .....

"Do you really think I came up the Thames on a banana boat?"

If you lived in or around the East End of London/West Essex it was a phrase used all the time

I can't view YouTube's as the SEAL team that I am currently embedded with forgot to pack the flux capacitor so I will assume it's about some silly American female blogger of Asian ethnicity saying that we are insulting the great Indian cuisine by calling anything vaguely Indian a curry? I think I read her article in The Guardian (but please don't tell Alex).

Bloggers?... shoot the blighters!

To put your mind at rest (is that even possible ) it is the horse-faced harridan who was the brains, and probably balls, behind Tony Abbott's failed Prime Ministership of Oz.

Ms Credlin now spruiks her obnoxious wares as a conservative talking-head on Sky News After Dark, Rupert's Australian version of the execrable Fox News.

You will be pleased to see (when you return) that many of the Thai based You tube boggers have b*ggered off from LOS in the last week or so (I've seen about 4 or 5 thumbnails saying I/we are leaving Thailand, so hopefully the 50 000 vids showing Thai market stalls/motorbike food vendors etc etc will not grow at the alarming rate they have in the last couple of years. Also one can only hope that by the time they return drones will have been invented that can be attached to your belt to enable you to ascend to see the views that it are currently impossible to get and therefore pointless in showing.
