Keep meditating, enlightenment is near!

.... well I also wondered when you would be along to put him straight too!

Have you known regular Thai people to worry about the future, plan ahead, perform maintenance.....at the time, there were certainly comments and complaints... but tomorrow problems are put aside until tomorrow. Prayut and the team have been smart....

Of course not... just read it in rantingravingloonies.com

Probably Facebook.

Perhaps my irritation towards my neighbour's noisy dogs is better controlled than I thought if monks can lose it!

Yes I went three for a week, nice bungalow on the beach with AC and hot water... lovely place.

Selling baht then?....

Rallied 0.5 baht/USD, 1.5%. I think that qualifies actually.

I don't think they notice indicators, I followed someone several KM on Sukhumvit yesterday that had one on continuously. When I am on my bike it is indicator and an arm stuck out and plenty of looking behind for right turns, I have been known to go to the left side sometimes and wait.. better than a pause in the middle of the road.... what else can you do?

As I read elsewhere, now tour buses can drive down there with gawping passengers! The days of the flag procession are behind us!

Probably better pickings in some motorcycle gang club house!

Well that was all there was in the headlines for some time so you basically disproved your own point!

I wonder if the Kuwaiti ambassador really has much of an idea what to do.... they themselves have probably raised brats too! Arab male children are spoiled more so than the locals here is my recollection.

Yes male only sports facilities, including saunas and cold pools are a thing..... a bit of a male bonding session, an opportunity for men's talk. The laughs we had chatting in the sauna after doing the gym were legendary.... USA the men aren't strong enough to keep their women out.......

Not in bars like you do I suspect! Heck a good old Chinese flag following procession is more people than all the Walking St bars contain!

Haha, you hand it to immigration officials who are strangers, so another point missing. The difference is probably closer to 20,000... but in reality I think many do not have the 800k to spare, and live off pension income. I talked to some who are very adverse to bringing that much into Thailand too..... why I am unsure.. again ready to leave at the drop of a hat perhaps. As said, I do as you, more than the 800k needed actually. I have expected it to go up at some time, maybe as a medical cover requirement one day.

Isn't going to happen.. too much money being made. You are in the Pattaya Forum so differing province comment not applicable.

Having the 800,000 baht equivalent on deposit, which might make you 40,000 in interest each year elsewhere, is reason enough for many, tied to the flexibility to just up sticks at any time. I actually do the same as you, but can see the reasoning to do otherwise.

He is paying the same as before, for the previous 7 or 8 years, so I expect he is happy enough.... they are getting rid of the old network, so should upgrade for free. What are True offering now....I am still on the 1Gbps/600Mbps?

Well the reality is they will take a COR only, making taking the pink card/yellow book as well unnecessary. As to his question.... I have heard both yes and no answers!

Had one at my place recently... although it ran away, it gave me an impression of being more than a match for a stiff broom. Very strong and a swipe from the tail looked dangerous. Great laugh watching 2 Thai guys chase it down and catch it.

Only the latter is possible in most countries.

I am not believing that, where would he find toilet cleaner in a Thai toilet?

That is their choice and it is not his role to apply hearsay to that decision..... So what did I read....11 were on junkets, 6 found something else more important to do than vote for a PM, and 16 weren't feeling well. (No effort to turn up in hospital pajamas then like Naz Shah in the UK....)
