  1. Must have been a brain transplant.
  2. The only surprise of this gimmick is that they didn't paint the elephants pink.
  3. Clearly Russia's government works like Thailand's.
  4. Korat has far more westerners than any other place in Isan.
  5. Expect the security at malls' entrances to be on full power........for the next week.
  6. Presumably against Siam Paragon. How did someone with a gun get it through security?
  7. Depends how old you are. If over Thai retirement age, you probably will not get it.
  8. I think the OP should get a health check at a hospital.
  9. I should also mention that Barclays actually only will provide services for UK residents and not simply for a UK address and intimated that they will be checking further if they suspect someone is not resident.
  10. Barclays called me in July to tell me they would close the account in August. They told me a string of lies: 1. They had sent me 2 letters. I have not received either; the last one I had from them was well over a year before on another matter. 2. A copy of the letters would be on their app; they were not. 3. The account was being closed because of Brexit and they didn't want to register in each EU country; I pointed out I was not in the EU. 4. They would contact me again in August to explain what to do; they did not. They sent an email on 12 Sept to say that my latest bank statement was available on the app. I could not log in. When I phoned them they said that they closed the account 0n 8 Sept. To download the claim form one needs to log into the app. What a useless bunch of idiots.
  11. You can certainly import used cars into the UK.
  12. I wouldn't get involved with anyone with breast implants. Nor one of those abysmal nose jobs that some Thais favour.
  13. It has always amazed me that Thailand continues to make people do border runs. It achieves nothing except to put money into the governments and businesses of neighbouring countries. Apart from anything else, this puts a big dent into Thailand's reputation for being able to make money from foreigners at every opportunity.
  14. That would be the best reason to promote him. One of the main reasons the police have such a lousy image is that Buggins gets the top job and has only 1 or 2 years at most to do anything positive. That's not enough time to get any results and simply results in stagnation.
  15. Smile Signature have several branches. I go to the one on Ratchadaphisek in BKK and have have been very happy with their work.
  16. It's not an elementary school uniform. They use it in secondary school.
  17. It would be better to say make a new will.
  18. If it's of interest to anyone, here is how to calculate import duties and taxes for just about everything in all countries. https://www.simplyduty.com/import-calculator/
  19. I never rely on approval email. The link in this thread gives 2 options when you sign in. "New application" and "check status" I just checked mine.....still pending and my due date is in couple of days. Been pending 7 working days already (CW) Im resigned to fact of having to go to CW doing in person report. Same thing happened last report. I'm losing faith in the damn thing. This has happened to me on the last 2 occasions. Ended up having to go in person on final day.
  20. That's nonsense. There has been a mass of people posting on having their accounts closed and last month my bank informed me that mine will be closed this month.
