    I'm drinking Sponsor (sugar free electrolyte) and lots of water everyday to keep the hydration.

     

    Someone told me that Protein Milk is also good.

    (I'm not talking about beer and booze...)

    Greetings and for any help and good perspective and advice, I thank you in advance.

    A friend of a friend has just informed me that on the offer of a job and relication to BKK, that they have overstayed and been living in Phuket for 7 months on overstay. They have suggested that they know a thai guy in Phuket who will speak to immigration for them and all he will have to do is pay the 20K fine and all should be well.

     

    I'd say 7 months is a seriously long time and how likely is it that they will turn a blind eye to it?

     

    Ive lived in thailand for 16 years and have only ever over-stayed by a couple days.  Usually thats not taken seriously and you just pay the fine.

     

    7 months seems a bit robust....?

     

    Is it really likely that they'll turn a blind eye or he'll be turfed out..?

    What is wrong with people these days?

    This is the best way until we get clarity. International ATM withdrawals can't be tracked back. Larger purchases is where they are shooting themselves in the foot. Who on earth is going to buy a condo/house/car knowing they might have to pay a 30% tax premium on top of the purchase price come the end of the year? Who is going to put their kids in a high end school if the cost is now 30% more? Who will open a business, if to fund it you'll be liable for income tax? It'll all have to come from offshore without touching the local bank...

    Why is it 30% when Thais only pay 7% and most dont TIT

    I asked this question before some time ago but when I searched for it nothing came up. I am having mobility problems. All I want is a gym with a walking machine so I can walk on a flat surface (albeit slowly). I don't need aircon but I would like the machine to either have a TV nearby or even facing the road so I can watch something, rather than a wall.

    Having such basic needs I would like it to be as cheap as possible. I look forward to your helpful replies.

    Just buy 1 aint expensive WDF is wrong with people nowadays, i have a home gym so i do not have to put up with stinking meat eaters

    I know.....

     

    How can a toilet seat crack in half?

    This has never happened to me before.

    Could be dangerous, even, if a brittle plastic shard from a cracked toilet seat cut my privates.

     

    Is this just a case of cheap plastics OF Yore?; about 35 years ago?

     

    Or, are the tiny toilet seats designed for Tiny Thais just poorly designed, now that we know that Thais are becoming heavier, by the year?

     

    FYI:  I have seen PLENTY of Thais who are double my weight.  And so, I think that toilet seats should be designed to withstand at least 200 Kilos to accommodate the commodes of Heavy Thais.

     

    Obviously, this is a perfect case of inferior plastics being used 35 years ago.

     

    NOW:  Here is my problem....

     

    The lousy garbage toilet seat is held in place by some metal screws, instead of what is now used...the plastic screws and bolts, which are easy to remove.

     

    And, now, even though I have a new toilet-seat replacement, I cannot remove the old lousy garbage toilet seat.

     

    I have unscrewed the right-side bolt, but the left-side bolt is completely locked, frozen, and corroded.

     

    This is very unnerving.  

     

    And, there are even Blogs discussing the stupidity of using metal screws to hold the toilet seat in place.

     

    As you know, where there is water, then there is bound to be corrosion.

     

    So....HOW do I remove these lousy garbage screws holding the garbage plastic toilet seat in place.

    If I cannot remove them....

    Then, I cannot replace the toilet seat, and sit upon it.

     

     

    Here is what I mean:

    I have no drill, at the moment.

    If I HAD a drill, then I would drill down through the head of the screw,.....

    OBVIOUSLY....

     

    Tks for any advice.

     

    I do not want to take a sledge to the toilet.

    I am trying to not waste money, by destroying the toilet with....

     

    ONE FELL SWOOP of the sledge.....

     

    angle grinder fix almost anything ceramics can handle heat

    I had never heard the term "butt naked" until a few decades ago. Back in the day, people said "buck naked". 

     

    I know both mean the same thing, and neither is wrong, but I wonder why this change came about and when.

    Not where i came from never heard buk naked before im in mid 60s, what planet you from

    Just returned from a well known supermarket chain after having to jump over and push past trollys loaded with goods and trays of eggs on the floor with staff cross legged alongside them. It makes shopping very difficult and  makes it impossible to look at or reach certain items.  It does not seem to matter what time of day I go in their is always someone stocking shelves and causing a blockage. In other countries they have staff to resupply when the shop is closed. I realise that some products need to be restocked during the day but today every aisle had someone in it and the ones that did not had products causing a blockage.

    Because TIT night time is party time, it does not make sense just accept it

    He should have vaporized dry herb instead and he wouldn't caused lung problems.
    I traveled for an extended period and didn't use any cannabis for four months and the only difference I noticed was that I'd remember my dreams. I didn't consider that a benefit. The most dangerous side effect of using cannabis are the laws.

    still not great for lungs though

    Police arrested an Australian man for allegedly stealing a motorcycle from a rental shop in Koh Samui and taking it on a joyride to Koh Pha Ngan in the southern province of Surat Thani.

     

    The manager of the Fanta Group Car Rental Shop in Koh Samui, Jurairat Janrung, filed a complaint with Bor Phut Police Station on March 3, reporting the theft of a motocross motorcycle worth about 300,000 baht. The 32 year old Jurairat suspected the theft occurred on the night of March 2.

     

    Officers checked security cameras and saw a man, later identified as 56 year old Helmul Ing Obritzberger, enter the rental shop and disappear. Another CCTV camera reportedly showed Obritzberger leaving the scene on a motorcycle.


    Further investigation revealed that Obritzberger took the motorcycle to a ferry at Ban Bangrak Pier in Koh Samui, heading to Koh Pha Ngan. The Australian man then disappeared from police sight after arriving on the island.


    Police tried to track down the motorcycle using its registration number, ปป 4493 but were unable to find it anywhere on the island.

     

    After three weeks of searching, police found that Obritzberger had changed the registration plate of the motorcycle to 1 กว 1982, changed the colour of the wheels, and changed his clothes upon arrival at Koh Pha Ngan.

     

    However, officers managed to identify him by his footwear. They located Obritzberger and apprehended him on Koh Pha Ngan at approximately 5pm on Tuesday, March 26.

     

    Obritzberger is facing charges under Section 335 of the Criminal Law for committing theft during nighttime. The penalty for this offence ranges from one to five years of imprisonment and a fine ranging from 20,000 to 100,000 baht.

     

    Although Obritzberger admitted that it was him captured in the security camera footage, he denied stealing the motorcycle and requested to engage his lawyer. However, the officers remained unconvinced and transported him to Koh Samui Court for temporary detention.

     

    Police told MGR Online that the Australian man frequently visited Koh Pha Ngan but did not stay in hotels or resorts on the island. He was seen staying in a tent near a hotel or shopping mall.

     

    Police added that Obritzberger previously rented motorbikes on the island and refused to pay fees, although no formal complaints had been made against him.
