Rules can be interperted in differant ways by any imo depends on who you get, what mood they are in on the day

I have been told a number of times by thai people, if you hit a motorbike with your car regardless if they caused the accident you will still be regarded as in the wrong in the eyes of the police. I know makes no sense. I almost hit a bike the other day he was driving fast cutting in an out of traffic, and cut in front of me just before road works on the road, if I had not been aware of him or had not braked I would have hit him as he cut in front, my wife said if I hit him I in the wrong. But.... Not worth arguing about it with the police just take the good offer of 50/50 you are lucky it was not 100%

40 baht? that is cheap, here in Chumphon it is 42 Baht and up to 44 baht for 95. The petrol stations use to have the same prices but now they have differant prices Shell is the most expensive then Esso and Bangjak and PTT are the same prices. Are you in BKK? Would be interesting to know what people are paying in differant provences

The site said i was inacive, so have now just registered again. It is a great site with excellent information, sad to see that it is not used so much these days

Do you know of any websites that cover building in Thailand? I use to read CoolThai house but the links on their site have stopped and it looks like not much input these days.

How about a photo of the end product? Interesting to see

Not the router then? Problem somewhere else. Depends on where you live and how far from the Network centralizer. The speed of your connection also depends on the distance between your terminal device and the network centralizer. The further you live from the operator's broadband centralizer, the more it affects the speed of your connection. Did not know there is a month discount if paid one year in advance, I will still stay with monthly as it allows me to move if ever I choose to do so, saying that have been with them 5 years lol

I live in the south Chumphon provence, 3bb is overall very good, I pay 700 a month + tax so 740 in total. We did have a slow service for a while, went to 3bb and they looked at my account and told me that I have an old router, next day they were out installing a new one. Back up to speed now. I would never pay a year in advance for anything in Thailand, month by month is better, costs no more and you can change when you want

Really? Just go to Watsons and adapt to what is available

why not? Can on a NZ passport and on a UK passport (going into NZ and the UK)

show the USA passport when leaving and show the Thai passport on arrival

Can I ask what you pay for taking it out in Dubai?

If unsure then go live in the country of your first choice for 1 or 2 years, just rent a condo, travel around and see if you like the place. Living in a new country for a year or two is totally differant from dreaming about going to live there or being there on a weeks holiday and saying that is the place to retire.

The third option which I think she took was to give him a few kick and a punch or two to let him know he messed with the wrong girl. She may know that if she had dropped him straight away or did more damage then she is the one in jail, so a light smack and kick gave him the message.

40 wins out of 50 fights in the ring? Dubious? Looks like she was holding back in boxing him. Lets see your boxing skills in a match with her

Yes true, she did carry on a bit to much, yet great to see her stand up to him, he will think twice before he trys that again with another girl.

You need to look up the meaning of "vigilantism". She was standing up for herself and remember the man started it. For every action there is a reaction

I had dual pricing in July last year, found the price at some hotels for Thai was cheaper than for Farang for a 14 day stay. What can you do? And they want tourists back. Also what happens if on the second test you are positive for Covid, how much do you have to pay for quarenteen in a hotel?

3BB, have been with them for 4 years, generally very good I pay 740 a month (1gbps/500mbps) Is good enough for watching movies online at the same time as the house is watching movie on TV via youtube. It was a bit slow last month and we told 3bb about this, the sales girl looked online and said you have an old router, they booked a new router in for us and it was installed two days later. Happy with speed, all back to normal. It is worth keeping in mind where you live, so may be worth mentioning it so you get feed back from expats who live in your neck of the woods

Yes very true, the rules, guidelines change from office to office, person to person. It depends also what mood they are in on the day. If you have lived here long eniugh it is not a surprise and you learn how to navigate around these things.

I have been caught like this with sending a letter to the UK, said something about not many flights and covid, as the letter had to go I sent it, around 800 baht. But I have found if I go to another main post office I can send at the normal rate. So I suggest you check out anoher post office. You may find it is the normal price.

50% cash and card

what about on the pavements? Even worse and have you noticed how Thai people will walk around a man-hole cover? They are not silly, many cases of man-hole covers giving way

so true, the BIB need to enforce the law and the fines should go up, 500 baht for speeding? People only learn when it has a direct impact on them and the best way is enforce the law, fine them and if no insurance or road tax then take the car and hold it until they have shown the car insuance and tax. That is the only way you are going to get through to them

Yes they have the long hour video and when I took the drivers test and had to watch the video I was surprised by the number of people playing on their phones, one person sleeping and a couple going out for a while and coming back later. So all a joke.
