  1. Speeding again... CCTV footage showed that the ice delivery truck was travelling at speed on the wet road and had swerved to avoid colliding with a white pickup truck that had just made a U-turn. The CCTV footage showed that at slower speeds the ice delivery truck would have had ample time to avoid any collision with the white pickup that had just completed the U-turn.
  2. Delusion of the year. What kind of marketing crack pot has this guy been smoking?
  3. Koh Lipe, Koh Tao, Koh Surin and some of the other small islands have excellent beaches and marine life. Anywhere near urban areas is best avoided, including Phuket.
  4. The navy has the rock surrounded to prevent anyone escaping.
  5. Subject the kids to nasal torture every 2 weeks. Who will pay for all the testing? Staff and children will need to have an ATK test (nasal and throat) before being allowed back on to campus. Parents would then be required to test the children every two weeks at home and upload a photograph of the test result on to the school platform.
  6. You previous mentioned 0.25 Kwh/m2 as a reasonable value for a cloudy day minimum production, but from the sound of the above, some days can even be lower?
  7. That is a very nice bike, but you are also a very experienced driver. The X-max is more like a real motorcycle than a scooter. Could be my next bike one I have more experience on the Aerox.
  8. To avoid spillage, they usually only top it up with 100 baht of fuel. Would be nice to have a 8-10 l tank, so you could fuel for 200 baht.
  9. What year? The only thing I can fault my 2020 Aerox is the smallish 4.6 l fuel tank. The 2021 model now have a 5.5 l tank.
  10. What kind of tax, VAT and import duty can I expect for a small $300 electronic device, a sensor and a display, when shipped from Europe? The vendor only ship by DHL or FedEx and they include the real invoice.
  11. Developers are getting creative: Some 120 flats in several projects across the Southeast Asian country will be made available for bidding next month on whyborder, an online property portal owned and operated by a Singapore-based company. The flats are expected to be offered at 20 to 40 per cent below their selling prices. https://www.scmp.com/business/article/3148446/after-rebates-and-freebies-thai-developers-auction-flats-online-bid-shake
  12. The past 20 days strong run for the baht was a bit premature. The Delta force is with us again so let's aim for 33.5 this time around.
  13. Mass testing in Koh Tao. 9 cases or maybe a bit more. All restaurants and cafes only serve takeaway until September 19th.
  14. Like a Christmas present ????. The post office have a 100 baht wrapping service on top of the transportation cost.
  15. Great list and just want to add: 7. Check any floor tiles barefooted and WET. The tiles might look and feel great at the shop, but gets slippery as ice when wet.
  16. I got the 2020 Yahama Aerox. 5,200 km for 50,000 baht. 155 cc, ABS, keyless start. Drive like a dream. Can climb a 51% gradient with a 175 kg passenger load. Thai post ship anywhere, so you can search online across the country.
  17. As per the title, are anybody using a Z-wave hub? I believe this is the Google hub for a smart home, but there might be other Z-wave hubs on the market.
  18. 24,000 in 10 day or 2,400 daily on average. Hardly record numbers and certainly not news worthy. Khao Yai national psrk had 4,247 daily visitor on average in 2019.
  19. Mass testing on Koh Tao. Very little official news, but rumors have it 10+, possibly 20+ positive, maybe even more. That is a lot out of a total population of 8,000.
  20. Not working 100.0000000%, correct. Covid might have been rampant on Koh Tao long time ago without the restrictions. The island have been virtually Covid free for many months, so not a bad run for limited restrictions. The latest spell include a captain and the crew of the night ferry. A banking manager from a bank with the capital city's name in it and apparently a lot of migrant workers.
  21. Sadly Covid has reached the shores of Koh Tao. Could very well be more than the official 7 cases, but official information is scarce.
