  1. Both..... also include 'as a consideration for the sentiments of others around, who wear masks.' I do not see that as a misconception. Rest of your post is nonsense.... I was wearing a mask on a motorcycle because you are sat behind smoke belching vehicles frequently and I have to breathe.
  2. So what are we saying, at least 1 not affected, 6.5 million dead?
  3. And yet Sterling depreciating substantially is being regarded as a disaster here.. can't have it both ways.
  4. Happened to me, I received a random 'small' deposit into my account.... soon after I am getting calls from someone crying over the phone in Thai and I had no idea what it was about, They talked to my wife and she dismissed them as scammers, until I told her, yes I had received the money. (Yes I sent it back!)
  5. And no amount of sanctimonious garbage will override the fact that they are temperamentally flawed, prone to jealousy and are a physically very strong and capable breed. If you want a companion that brings back sticks or slippers, look elsewhere. I would suggest if you have small children, you do not consider them. They are a working dog, not a pet.
  6. So we are openly admitting the punishment for a foreigner would be substantially different to that a Thai would receive?
  7. You messed up the quote... but I most certainly had an insurance premium go up after I had made a claim... they added a 5% surcharge for one year( it might have been 2). Perhaps policies vary.
  8. Because most of it is built on low lying land that was once swamp.... and now, being fully built up, the water has no where to go to and no path to get to the sea. Buakhao mean white lotus, and a lotus is often called a water lily.
  9. On the other side of Father Ray's,, ie on Sukhumvit, there are no such markings, and I suggest disabled people do not use it as it is dodgy even in a truck! A pedestrian bridge over Sukhumvit was built especially for them to cross over, it had a lift fitted inside. I have often wondered if that even still works.
  10. Just the old 'move them out of the limelight' shuffle for a few weeks until the fuss dies down.
  11. I am presuming this was Wednesday night. I was woken up by very very heavy rain 3-4 times. In the morning it looked like 4 inches at least had fallen. That would be some serious dangerous weather to be riding a bike home.
  12. The condo could issue a memo to residents warning them, and from then on, it is up to the vehicle owners to suffer the consequences.... but therein lies the issue...the won't be any. The condo does not own the street here.
  13. McDonalds, KFC, Taco Bell, Ford, Toyota, Red Bull,
  14. Yes, the dogs must have suffered unable to get away. Wonder if their barks were ignored simply because they always did that!
  15. I think it is more the type of vegetables that we don't really see in the West.....
  16. Well it was not specifically mentioned that I saw....if they were new wires being put in for some lighting, and the other end was also stuck up in the air, it is a brouhaha about nothing! That doesn't mean I would want to stick my tongue to one to check like an old PP9 battery!
  17. The beach is pretty flat already. They need to set out the rules wrt vendors.... we all hate the pesky hawkers but need a cold drink, a beer, or snack now and again!
  18. And paint.... pretty much all rad markings are a waste of paint. Lane markings are completely ignored, I wonder if many know they are even there.
  19. The ambulance took 30 minutes to arrive ....... She was alive initially.
  20. Hardly unusual and difficult to resolve, as the authorities have usually received a pay-off. The added concern is retaliation when they find out who is complaining.
  21. I would never pay that much... maximum 500,000. I paid for the last one for her father and it got sick, then died!
  22. Were they even live? Looked for comment on that and did not see it.
  23. Kuwait does not really perform such executions, the last being in 2017, that reputation is really the neighbour to the South. Inexperience with alcohol and some arrogance likely.... get them deported after a while in the cells.
