HUA HIN, THAILAND Our issue back in the middle of November last year proclaimed the early announcement of this year’s Hua Hin Jazz Festival, which was to be organised by the Passion4Share agency, and held in June; unfortunately in May this year the agency announced their withdrawal from managing the event, citing a ‘lack of confidence in organizing a quality event’ and the reluctance of tourists and tour groups to travel to the event in what was perceived as a risk because of the political situation. A smaller event has now been organised by BOFFO Thailand and the Hua Hin Municipality, the Jazz Up Hua Hin Jazz Festival 2014, and will take place on Saturday 26th July 2014 from 5pm to midnight. The venue will be at Hua Hin Queen’s Park (Suan Rachinee National Park), often referred to as simply 19 Rai. As with the previous festivals the event is free for everyone to attend. The line-up of artists consists of The Saxophone Madness, a jam session of leading saxophonists in Thailand with saxophonist, Tong Tewan, as a special guest. This is followed by trumpeter Steve Cannon, with his special show “A Tribute to Chet Baker”. There will be a ‘Pop’ interlude with competitors from Thai TV singing competitions such as The Star, The Voice, KPN and Thailand Jazz Singing Contest. This will be followed by a highly acclaimed band from Japan - The Travelers, followed by well known Thailand-based fusion jazz band The Infinity. Soul After Six will conclude the night with their well-known ‘sing along songs’ and featuring songs from their new album. While this year’s line up is inevitably shorn of the type of international jazz acts that have been seen in previous years, due to the uncertainty leading up to it, the organisers must be commended for staging the latest instalment, and we must hope that 2015 sees a return to the festival’s roots.

This week it is..... as the crow fliesin a direct line, without any of the detours caused by following a road.The allusion in this expression is obviously to the ability of crows to fly directly from a to B, without the encumbrances of roads and landscape features that restrict man. Crows are perhaps an odd choice as, unlike many birds that migrate over long distances, their flight isn’t especially straight. Crows normally fly in large wheeling arcs, looking for food.The earliest known citation of the phrase, which explicitly defines its meaning, comes in The London Review Of English and Foreign Liturature, by W. Kenrick - 1767:The Spaniaad [sic], if on foot, always travels as the crow flies, which the openness and dryness of the country permits; neither rivers nor the steepest mountains stop his course, he swims over the one and scales the other.The term ‘the crow road’ has long been used in Scotland to denote the most direct route. it has also been used there latterly to indicate death, which is the meaning alluded to in iain Banks’ 1992 eponymous novel. This term is contemporary with ‘as the crow flies’ and is cited in the 1795 Statistical account of Scotland, where a turnpike, or ‘crow road’, was suggested as a means of reducing the costs of road maintenance, by eliminating numerous winding roads:One of which improvements is evident to the most careless observer; viz. in cutting a line of road from Campsie kirk to the Crow road.

Related expression: Make a bee-line forGo directly towards.The phrase derives from the behaviour of bees. When a forager bee finds a source of nectar it returns to the hive and communicates its location to the other bees, using

a display called the Waggle Dance. The other bees are then able to fly directly to the source of the nectar, that is, ‘make a beeline’ for it. This dance is a surprisingly sophisticated means of communication for a creature with such a small brain. The forager bee performs a short wiggling run - hence the name, with the angle denoting the direction of the nectar-laden flowers and the length of time denoting the distance.The phrase is american and all the early citations of it come from the uSa. The earliest found is from The Davenport Daily Leader, January 1808:“Gustav Stengel Sr., of Rock Island, was thrown from his sleigh on Third Avenue in that city yesterday afternoon, the horse becoming frightened and turning abruptly, ripping the cutter. The horse made a bee line for home.”Given the colloquial usage in that citation, the figurative phrase and certainly the original literal meaning of bee-line must have been in use for some time at that date.

Every week in this article helen Couldrey, a financial consultant with the deVere Group, and also a qualified English lawyer, will give you tips and ideas of how to take advantage financially of being an expat. helen has clients in Bangkok, hua hin and Cha-am who she helps to maximise the financial benefits of living overseas.

uK PEnSiOnS - Tax SaVinGS anYOnE?• Do you have a uK pension? • are you living in Thailand? • are you interested in tax savings related to your uK

pension?if you answered yes to the above, then read on.holders of uK pensions that have moved overseas often face difficulties with their pension schemes as the pension benefits are usually frozen in the uK. Further, if you leave your pension in the uK and something were to happen to you, the uK government could apply a tax on the pension pot, sometimes as much as 55%. This would result in less money for the remaining spouse or beneficiary. This is often the case for those holding uK pensions however, is there anything that can be done to improve the position? if you are living in Thailand as a non-uK resident

then the answer is yes…, and it comes in the form of a QROPS. QROPS were introduced in april 2006 in order to simplify pensions and allow uK Pension holders to access their funds in their country of residence. a QROPS can also have significant tax advantages.

• What is a QROPS?a Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme (QROPS) is an overseas pension scheme that (i) has met the requirements of the hMRC, (ii) that can receive the transfer of uK Pension Benefits without penalties for unauthorised payments. • What are the benefits?

There are many benefits to a QROPS. here are a few. Firstly, if something were to happen to you, the 55% death charge tax on your uK pension can be avoided. Secondly, you can pass 100% of your remaining pension onto your loved ones. Further, a QROPS will also allow you to take investment control of your pension funds.• i have more than one uK pension? Can i consolidate

them into one plan?Yes. Rather than having a complex web of finances, a QROPS can consolidate your pensions into one pot. This makes your financial planning much simpler and saves you having to sift through various different schemes. • i have already started drawing down my pension.

Can i still transfer into a QROPS?Yes, provided that you aren’t (i) drawing down from a final salary scheme/defined benefit scheme or (ii) receiving an annuity.• how much do i need to have in my pension pot in

order to do a QROPS?QROPS transfers normally start at around GBP 50,000. however it is always worth making an enquiry if your pension pot is smaller than this.• Do i need to be a uK citizen to benefit from a

QROPS?no. having a uK pension is what allows you to apply for a QROPS.

ThE PRinCE anD ThE FROGa prince goes to see his doctor because his manhood is a massive 60 inches long.“it’s ruining my life complained the prince. “is there anything you can do?”“i’m sorry, there isn’t,” said the doctor, “but i think i have an answer to your problem. i’ve heard there’s a deep pond in the middle of The Magical Forest. When you find it, you will see a frog sitting on a lily pad. You must ask it to marry you and when it says no, your manhood will shorten by 10 inches.”The prince sets out for the forest and sure enough, there’s a frog sitting on the lily pad.“hey frog,” he shouts, “will you marry me?”“no,” replies the frog and the prince’s appendage shrinks by 10 inches.The prince is overcome with happiness. Two more times he asks the frog to marry him and it shrinks another 20 inches. Wonderful, thinks the prince, just once more and it’ll be perfect.“hey froggy, will you marry me?”By this time the frog is so annoyed with all the pestering that he shouts back “i’m fed up with telling you, no, no and no again!”

DRESS CODE FaiLuRE“i’m sorry you can’t come in here, you have to wear a tie” said the bouncer at the night-club.The man goes back to his car but can only find a set of jump leads.he slings them round his neck and walks back to the club.“Will this do?” he asks.“OK, but don’t start anything.”

CinEMa goers: Please have consideration for pirate DVD viewers by having a pee before the film starts.

RaPPERS: avoid having to say ‘know what i’m sayin’ all the time by actually speaking clearly in the first place.

maGs meaNderiNGs: frOm sOm tam tO musHY Peas

LaST OF ThE SuMMER WinE?Once upon a time in hua hin most expats gathered in their bar of choice in order to watch major sporting events. in the days before farang home ownership really took off, and even, shocking as it may seem, before there was a Tesco in town, cable TV in rented homes was the norm. and although cable did guarantee a constant supply of the Simpsons, it wasn’t quite up to coverage of events like the World Cup or Wimbledon. So it was down to the bar to watch footy, tennis, golf and F1.Of course technological progress has brought us huge screen TV’s, which can still draw people to a bar to watch sport. Even here in little old hull there are people flocking as i write to pubs in order to watch the World Cup on screens which are bigger than my living room.. Or at least they were flocking until Englands’ efforts came to nothing, and Suarez’ propensity for cannibalism caused a mass switch over to Wimbledon.neither of which i’m afraid - football or tennis - float my boat. So it was a relief last weekend to have the welcome diversion of the Glastonbury Festival on no less than three Freeview TV channels in the uK.Coincidentally an article about ageing rockers had appeared in a popular tabloid just the week before. Citing certain Rolling Stones and Sir Paul McCartney as being well past their best. and i have to agree. Sir Paul should really have retired before the last Olympic Games. Some of the Stones have a bit more going for them - God knows how - they just

do. But i personally wouldn’t pay to see them again after their urban Jungle tour in the 80’s. not because it was bad - far from it - i just don’t think it could be bettered.The reality is though that in the uK at least there is a resurgence of old rockers who simply refuse to rest on their laurels and retire gracefully. Maybe it has a lot to do with the inadequacies of uK pensions, or maybe not, as the Eagles are also up and about again, and they certainly haven’t paid national insurance stamps.But although some old rockers can still get away with it - the likes of The Who are a good example - there are others who quite frankly have lost the plot. Which is where our female readers will probably understand more. Especially if, like me, they watched Bryan Ferry at Glastonbury. he has certainly aged well. That lean figure can still carry the narrow black trousers and snazzy jacket. The voice is still the same. But something has gone from those eyes which once made us weak at the knees. Botox certainly has a lot to answer for.This weeks’ word is for those of you who suffer from travel sickness and have to take medication for it. as we all know medicines of all kinds were originally derived from plants, and one plant substance still used in potions for travel sickness is hYOSCinE.hyoscine is poisonous, but hopefully the pharmaceutical industry will know exactly how little of it you need to settle your stomach safely.

SATURDAY 5TH JULY 2014FIFA WORLD CUP - qUARTER FINALArgentina v Belgium 23:00Both of these teams have been tipped as potential winners, and they will have to be close to their best to get through here. Argentina have stuttered a little in the last two games, but both have been doing just enough to progress to this stage. This will be a tight affair and a lot will hinge on how well Lionel Messi plays; given his recent performances we think Belgium might well sneak this one.

MOnTiViDEO, uRuGuaYA DECADES-LONG conspiracy to discredit Uruguay and their star player Luis Suarez has been revealed.The multi-billion operation, involving body doubles, faked footage and carried out with the full cooperation of media organisations across the globe, was co-ordinated by MI6, the CIA, and Mossad under the direct control of David Cameron and Barack Obama.Uruguayan President Jose Mujica said: “1994, and George Lucas begins work on Star Wars prequel The Phantom Menace.“Why? Not because anyone wanted to see it, but in order to develop the CGI techniques that, 20 years later, would be used to fool the world into thinking they had seen Luis Suarez actually biting a man on a football pitch.

“The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan were a smokescreen, funnelling billions into the ongoing program to discredit our country’s hero and stop Uruguay replacing the dollar with cattle as the reserve currency.”Intelligence operative Tom Booker said: “The entire Italy-Uruguay game was filmed on greenscreen and digitally

composited live. Mario Ballotelli is just Andy Serkis doing motion capture again.“Every photo of Suarez ever taken has been Photoshopped to make his teeth look bigger and hungrier to subliminally prepare the world for our masterstroke.“You’d think we had better things to do, but we didn’t.”Stephen Malley of Merseyside said: “Oh come on. It’s absolutely ridiculous to suggest that there’s a massive international conspiracy to stop the Uruguayan side reaching their rightful place at the top.“It’s clearly all aimed at Liverpool.”
