ht be of some interest.

Those damned cheap wires.... probably 50 years old too.

You're really a poor little boy. I feel sorry for you.

The solution is simple: make the punishment for (provable) physical sexual assault punishable with hard labour for (5) years. Problem solved! No man will dare to go near a woman ever again.

Not a situation to be sniffed at

Is it confirmed 90 day reports are needed on DTV? What is the issue with doing a regular 90 day report? Is this an issue everyone has or I must be misunderstanding the post?

My kind of Globalist ! Heir Elon! Free Speech warrior.

Shocking. Not my words but from the GOP Susan Collins.

Because it's Thailand.

Perhaps Speaker Johnson is suffering FOMO.

Pathetic....

When he grows up.

Yeah, just sleep in the airport. Save all kinds of time and money. You'll sleep much better on the next leg. I didn't spell it out clearly enough... Layover at a convenient hotel near the Airport. Most airports also have an air-side hotel, but they can be expensive. In Dubai (for example) We stay at the Crown Plaza which is next to Festival City Mall.. - Morning flight from BKK - Plane lands just after midday in Dubai - No need to collect baggage - straight through immigration and out of the airport in 15mins. - Arrive at hotel 10mins later - Chill / Pool / Evening meal in the Mall / Sleep - Wakeup - shower etc - Uber to Airport - Already have boarding pass so go straight through security to gate (grab a coffee and a bite on the way) - Take the flight fully refreshed. (no need to sleep in the Airport - the Crown Plaza has cost anywhere from 3000 to 4500 baht for the night) It doesn't time out so well on the way back - so we usually stop over for 2 nights after landing at about midnight.

Or more likely a child on a Big Bike.

That can't be good for Lindsay Graham & staff.

I think bathroom policy is still left to the states, but Big Government will be along soon.

Hopeless. Why not just go to any phone shop or booth and let staff do it for you?

I had nothing else to do while waiting for my sausages to cook!

Having suffered from constipation due to a "slow digestive system" according to the doctors at BUPA, I have tried just about everything to be regular and nothing has worked, not fibre, cereals, grains, fruit so I thought I would give the two unpeeled kiwifruit suggestion a go. Last night I put two whole unpeeled kiwifruit into the blender and drank the result before bedtime, expecting there to be movement in the morning. This did not happen and I waited for about three hours before deciding upon my tried and trusted remedy which I have tried to give up; half a cup of "good" prune juice, Sunsweet (not the ones with added sugar) and two dessert spoons of liquid sorbitol (which I can buy from Lazada very cheaply), mixed and quickly consumed and about an hour later the "explosion" happened (which is why I have tried to steer away from this concoction) – – it works, but it works too well!! The other remedies I have tried include; Sennakot tablets, Bisacodyl tablets, Resolor tablets (prescribed for me by the colorectal surgeon at Bangkok Phuket hospital), Miralax, Mucillin powder, and I thought I'd found a remedy with the "Posh Medica" powder which worked at least once, and then didn't, and also half a cup of olive oil which had no effect whatsoever and some licorice which although tasty, didn't have any of the desired effects. So what to do? I can revert to my Sunsweet and Sorbitol remedy, but I would like my digestive system to be able to work naturally without "prompting", BUT perhaps it is the scourge of old age where the workings of the body are not as keen as they once were and have slowed down. However I don't want to be like the aged gentleman who was next to me in hospital in Melbourne where I had my Turp performed, because according to one of the nurses he had been constipated for many weeks and they were pumping him full of something because every so often there would be a moaning and groaning coming from the bed and an awful smell filled the room. As far as I remember he was in his 80s, and I was out of there before I ever found out what happened to him, but whatever they were putting into him was certainly working, but geez, he was hardly conscious all the time. I'm 77 in a few days, so perhaps that's what I have got to look forward to, even worse than it is now – groan!!!!

And perhaps that causes a little confusion. Chiang Saen and Chiang Khong are both in Chiangrai province heading into Laos and neither crossing is near the other. So: (1) You attach a paper that you say you got at the Chiang Khong crossing. So why is the thread title about the Chiang Saen crossing? Do you know that the same 2-night rule applies at Chiang Saen? (2) Are you saying that the 2-night rule applies to those of us with a one-year Thai visa/extension (retirement/marriage), DTV, etc.?

Sexual assault is part of Egyptian culture? In that case, if he did this in Europe, officials would apologize for the cultural insensitivity caused in arresting him, and let him go free.

I agree, leaving wooden pallets in the road is reckless behaviour.

A good idea to blame the victims. Of course you could have asked if the Russian driver had a licence, how fast HE was going, if he had stopped at the junction as he should have done. You could also have asked if the Russian had a valid visa, was he working or perhaps part of a crime syndicate. However it is always easier to blame the victim, especially if they are Thai, and even more so if you have nothing to back up your words.

But they have to match it to an address.
