  1. It's the first step in experiencing 'stupid and ill-thought out' with everything govt. in Thailand.
  2. You can get 9 months out of METV almost, regardless. Just have to keep an eye on expiry date stamped on the visa, and leave a day or so before then to be sure and you can get an additional 3 months almost beyond that expiry date...60+30 extension.
  3. Yes, it seems that way to me too regarding the traffic....was over half of year this year...quite gloomy finding out half my coffee shop/restaurant loop had gone bust. I doubt CM will have the same tourist buzz about it for 2 more years.
  4. The trick is to have both panes of glass different thicknesses...it has same sound killing effect as triple glazing more or less..or you could go triple using that trick. Your wall may also be trassmitting sound though as walls can be shockingly thin here as I found out.
  5. Agreed, we are an out of control virus on planet earth at this point. Maybe it was just testing the water before the main course...haha.
  6. Shokz OpenRun... fixed my typo.
  7. Try Shok OpenRun bone conducting phones..both bases covered.....music that does not disturb others, and having to deal with people. Pricey, but good sound and investment in not getting mown down if outside.
  8. So sad....peaceful in sleep best way vs something like that. That is how my dad went, though it was induced.
  9. This will give OP on overview...can stay in near guest house listed
  10. 1) Get "beat up by a sausage queen" and have super pricey gold necklace stolen to pay for the trip.
  11. Technically not a vaccine since they do squat to stop post-injection infection...should be put in a new category as they are not like flu or chickenpox vaccines etc....Immune boosters/preppers etc. I had covid for 3 weeks after getting 3 jabs in last 1.5 years.
  12. Oh boy, thanks for heads up on that if I ever bring g/f to UK...nightmare. Hope you get it sorted.
  13. I could read it - but if pasted in probably deleted....basically tad tougher to get back in for those here a year/+ ...some being told to fly in to Thailand at such a remote point (!) and other criteria ..will be due to excess traffic coming from Mae Sai being closed - making them fussier maybe so they are not seen as a soft touch. The town there is pretty bleak if having to stay overnight, but Beer Lao big bottles 40 Baht and no horrorcore hangovers like Thai beer being an upside....Lao border towns restaurants/guest houses tend to have low hygiene...was my exp. there anyway if you have a good look.
  14. Confiscation and direct strain to strain testing time for the plain clothes boys....
  15. That will put an end to METV visas for all but those that get a helping hand over the 'stupid' wall.
  16. You mean they are making ammendments to visa rules ? WHAT ?
  17. I guess the smart ones go where there is little chance, or no legal basis for extradition.
  18. Advaita Vedanta says yes...and you are the Matrix maker.
  19. Singing for their supper as usual....pass the mic.
  20. At crossings with lights - assume nothing and look once, look twice, look thrice and be prepared for a sudden halt or a sudden run. I ended up looking every direction automatically living all over Asia with left/right driving lanes mishmash. They are going to hose Thais with bigger fines soon enough all through automation..the death stats can't go on and the detection tech gets better and cheaper. They will dial on emptying offender wallets next 10 years I guess.
  21. Dear oh dear, when did it start to derail like this in former gung-ho LoS ?
  22. I finally got covid...glad I never got delta if this is what lesser omicron is like..it's stuck to me 2 weeks later...severe fatigue every afternoon.
  23. 37 going on 67. Check under bed...oops, nope they don't look like Gen Z NOOB backpackers looking to pay for their trip via insurance payout.
  24. 6am par for the course back in day in after-hours places...out the door into sunlight wasted - ouch !
