Try Starling bank. I haven't had a 'proper' UK address for over 10 years but was still able to open an account with them. You will obviously need some address in the uk but it could be a friend or family member.

Used to have credit card debts of about $50K+ many years ago. Now debt-free, no credit cards ????

Good Lord..... next up asking TV members for medical advice! ????????????????

From OP "Is there any TVF members who are (or were) properly qualified in Economics to explain..." - seems entirely sensible. I also would like to hear an explanation from someone who is qualified to do so.

How can the numbers drop so quickly from 108 to 16? Some kind of miracle cure? Inaccurate testing?

I've told you a million times before, don't exaggerate.

No need to panic too much, though. Thailand is in a lucky situation due to its climate. Thanks to the hot climate, people are either outdoors where the concentration of the virus loaded aerosols is low, as the dwell time of droplets and aerosols in the air is short.

 

Or they are indoors with an AC switched on, and the AC reduces aerosols and droplets in the air as well, leading also to low virus concentrations in the inhaled air. This low virus load statistically leads to mostly weak or asymptomatic cases. 

 

If the above is correct (which seems a fair assumption), why have other countries in SE Asia (e.g. Hong Kong, Malaysia) or the Middle East had many more reported cases than Thailand over the past 6 months?

A refreshingly well-written piece; thank you :-)

Just ask them to stop! I had a few friends doing it and I politely asked them to stop. No dramas ????

My son shipped my meds to me from the UK over a month ago. Nothing seen (small jiffy bag)

They’ve just done this in my condo on Phratamnak Hill, Pattaya. I appreciate their enthusiasm and the desire to do good, but that lift is about 5ft across. I plan to stand on the arrow next to the door and watch everyone scratch their heads on what to do next if they want to get in the lift

All you need is something like this......

If your internet at the condo is always on, you can log into the camera from anywhere in the world with your phone and see what's going on. SD card will record any movement etc.

 

Just a suggestion as I have several around the property.

It's not very 'spy' (ish) LOL

That's last 2 weeks max then......

Shame, I like the Steakhouse ????

Best to use the dowsing rods to find the most suitable location - that'll nail it
