  1. Better in Cambodia forum not Thailand MOVED
  2. Well done youve managed to continually disrupt this to the limit. CLOSED !
  3. Interview with Enoch Powell from 1971, his forcast for the beginning of this century was spot on !
  4. Great British Sattire !..... https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSRyBUAtA/
  5. The model is also on youtube ! But you'll need a Thai ???? also has contact telephone number, which may be of some help.
  6. Be aware if you POST it to an agent you may not see it again for several months. This may impact your 90 day reports and other potential problems. Make sure they send it back after the applicatio. Is made and dont hang on to it waiting for the new one to arrive. It was this aspect of frequent handling and postage (risk) several times back and forth that deterred me. So I went myself. There is a pinned topic with downloadable forms and other information at the head of this forum.
  7. Trendy Building Bangkok. Sukhumvit soi 13. The Passport Office for renewal is on Floor 8. Best to get there about 15 minutes before your appointment. The staff are super helpful and the whole process is easy and straight forward. There is a place to get photocopies, photgraphs, even translation done (if required) all on the same floor so dont panic if you missed anything. The staff are very understanding and will wait while you get whatever is needed to be done to complete your application correctly.
  8. Go to the dealer and talk to them, take it from there.
  9. Only go there usually if we have gone to that complex for something else [ pizza place kfc swenson etc) and its convenient to pop jn there for the odd item. No way would we go justfor them. As others, its Makro then/or Big C.
  10. Reported post and responses to it removed.
  11. most experts agree that 70 to 93 percent of all communication is nonverbal.That.makes me 70-93% competant in ANY language you like. ????
  12. Toyota Yaris in this color 5 years, no issues.
  13. Agreed ! The Scots accent is one that requires alot of concentration, a thick accent combined with speed and its a challenge for sure ????
  14. Australians sound like they mixed tneir vowels, goodiy mite switching a for i, as an example ???? As for Britain, I think you woud be hard pushed to spot an actual real Englishman in many towns these days.
  15. Reading this forum over the years it has become quite easy to identify some nationalites by how they write, and certainly easy to spot a non-native English speaker as I think many can. Certain phrases and attitudes are difficult to mask when in the flow of conversation, sometimes I can tell who has written something without looking at the avatar/name! the OP is a perect example ????
  16. I boughta phone recently, should have realised "too good to be true" I didnt receive the phone advertised I got a new phone but it was in an unmarked box, bore no resemblane to advertised product and appeared to be a cheap plastic Chinese item. I also paid COD. I contacted the seleer via chat, took photos, sent to them. I requested a return based on jncorrect item received. I was then told, and this was unreal for me, that the seller has to decide !!! After 3 days the seller agreed the return. I sent it back and followed it back via Lazada system to the seller. I then got a msg the item was being inspected. The seller would then decide if they will accept it or not ! Another 5 days went by, and I had a full refund. The point being that whilst it was refunded, the system and procedure is ALL in the sellers favor and unlike the West, where its predominently on the customers side. Be very careful what you buy and from who, I consider myself lucky, but it coukd very easily have gone bad. Lazada is a portal for some very unscrupulous sellers, BUYER BEWARE seems to be increasingly the best policy for many online outlets.
  17. Cruise Halong bay Vietnam. Or as suggested above combine that with Japan.
  18. Inappropriate comment and responses removed.
  19. In the right place....it was an Anahonda ! Ok I'll get my coat.
  20. Inflammatory remark and bickering exchange removed.
  21. Downloaded the Grab app but didnt proceed and uninstalled it after not being happy with "permissions", why the heck they need access to my physical activity, photos and media files, camera, audio files is a step too far for me. ???? Bolt was easier so will try that and see how it goes.
  22. Is there any truth in Grab are x2 price of metered cars in your experience ? Anyone know how Bolt compare in price to metered ?
  23. Havnt been to BKK for a few years,which one is better for getting around these days ?
