bought a new car last February. Took 2 months for the white plates to be available. Did not keep any log books and regularly drove out of province and passed through numerous check points in both directions, for 2-3 days at a time while on the red plates, and was never stopped by the police or army.

I doubt that very much. The yanks have even changed the spelling of words because they aren't capable of spelling them correctly AND can't comprehend that some words with the same pronunciation BUT different meanings are spelt differently. e.g Tyre & tire. The lazy yanks use tire for both meanings. Most of their spelling takes the lazy route as it's phonetic. Most of the bastardisation they are responsible for doesn't go back to the language you say was allegedly spoken in England Centuries ago. but relates more has occurred over the past 150-200 years. I wouldn't even call what they speak American English, it's just American. It may sound like english, but it's anything but.

Only yanks, and possibly Canucks, call them crosswalks. Your comment is just another example of how America has bastardised the english language.

Not the case at my local revenue office. I use PromptPay to receive my tax refunds. Have done so for the past 2 years without being linked to a Thai ID card. This year showed my pink id card as I left my passport at home. No issues at all with revenue office personnel processing my tax return.

that's because there's so few of them

Every Thai household in this part of the country already grows their own marijuana, including some police & local govt officials, so DPM Wissanu should just rubber stamp A Nut in's previous public comments and legalise it outright.

that's not the lottery. Systems like system 8 are in LOTTO

my son lives in Singapore and he told me about the possible side effects from exercising too soon after getting a booster jab. Unfortunately he didn't tell me until after I told him what had transpired.

none

Some hospitals are not sticking to the above schedule. My wife had 2 sinopharm jabs and I had 2 AZ jabs. We both received our Moderna booster 2 months after our 2nd jabs. Although I would issue this warning re Moderna booster jabs. Do not do any serious form of exercise for at least 10 days after receiving the booster. I was unaware that exercise soon after the booster could, in some cases, bring on a nasty side effect. 4 days after I had my booster I was participating in the Chiang Rai Road Classic (50km race). At the 40km mark I stopped at a water refill zone and my vision went blurry in one eye and total loss of vison in the other. This lasted for round 1 hour before vision returned to normal. My son also experienced something similar when he went to the gym 2 days after receiving his booster. Like all side effects, not everyone will have them, but this one was rather scary while it lasted.

Have another look at the name of the person (Chalermchai Sri-on) making the statement. I think you'll find it's NOT the guy (Thamanat Prompow) that spent time in jail in OZ for smuggling heroin.

A norwegian friend of mine has told me how to differentiate between wild & farmed salmon. Farmed salmon is paler in colour and has more predominant white lines in the flesh. See pic attached

It was always my understanding that joint accounts were not acceptable and that it was mandatory, even for a foreign couple, to have individual accounts each with the 800k. That's certainly been my experience when I was in BKK and had to go to CW for my extensions. Perhaps that has now changed

the only politicking was from the Victorian Premier. The prime minister never wavered from the current actual requirements for entry into Oz, especially as both Tennis Australia and the Victorian premier both received 2 lots of written correspondence from the Oz govt in Nov clearly outlining the requirements to enter Oz. So as per another poster get your facts right randirona.

Not correct. The exemption was NOT issued by the Oz Govt, it was issued by Tennis Australia, and it was not an exemption to enter Oz, it was an exemption to play in the tournament as an unvaccinated player. Djokovic had the WRONG type of visa to start with and could NOT provide any proof that he had a medical condition that exempted him from being vaccinated when he arrived at the border.

those other 3 players are being investigated, and if their situation is the same as Djokovic, they will be deported. But I'm guessing they were able to provide the required documentation to support their exemption, which is why they are on the practice courts and not in custody

You've got it wrong. The visa was not cancelled because of public pressure. Despite 2 letters from the Australian govt to both Tennis Australia and the Victorian State Govt stipulating the conditions of entry into Australia for unvaccinated people ( viz. 14 days quarantine required ) Djokovic tried to shortcut the process by saying he had had C19 in the previous 6 months, but he didn't do his research properly on the conditions of entry to Oz. The conditions of entry for those who had had C19 6 months prior to arrival in Australia was that they ALSO had to be double jabbed to be considered as fully vaccinated. Djokovic did not meet those conditions, and Tennis Australia & the Victorian govt issued him with an exemption to play the Aussie Open despite the correspondence they received last November. Djokovic may well have a valid medical reason for not being vaccinated, but he did not use that reason, and has not provided any proof that he does actually have a medical condition that prevents him from being vaccinated. On top of that he has made numerous comments online and in the media clearly putting in the category of an anti vaxer. I don't agree with a lot of things this dumb aussie govt does, but I support this decision 100%. latest reports are that e will remain in custody ( in a hotel ) until Monday when his appeal goes back before the courts.

Agoda's prices are misleading, which is why they are initially lower than booking.com Booking.com's prices are inclusive of teh 10% & 7% taxes. AGODA's are EXCLUSIVE of them. SO in reality AGODA is the more expensive site to book through.

only problem is AGODA's prices are misleading. If you book through AGODA the advertised price is NOT the actual price. AGODA add the 10% & 7% to the advertised price after you confirm the booking, whereas booking.com's prices are inclusive of the 10% & 7% taxes, and also cheaper than AGODA. The other big difference is that with AGODA and some others you must pay in advance. With booking.com you don't have to pay until you check-in. Booking.com also have a better cancellation policy. I've never had any issues using booking.com. Recently made a reservation through them for May. Realised after confirming that the room/price booked did not include breakfast. Was able to change the booking quite easily.

They'd be hard pressed to outdo the current aussie prime minister. Every time he opens his mouth he tells more lies than Prayut and all his cronies combined.

Fat chance of that happening. What hope is there when the police who are on duty turn up at our friends houses, in uniform & driving clearly marked police cars, and consume copious amounts of Sang Som, and when they leave they are well and truly over the limit. Don't anybody try to tell me this doesn't happen, because I witness it on a regular basis, and when I ask them why they drink & drive, let alone while on duty, their answer is simply "I'm the police I can do what I want".

He's based in Vancouver but perhaps he was spending Christmas at Bowen Island where he goes sometimes to visit his son

received my paid for Moderna booster yesterday, 1 month ahead of the time I was advised. If people registered with THG they can transfer their jabs to another person using their app, and you just get the cash from the other person if you want to sell.

never been there, but received a message from a friend who is Vancouver at the moment. He says it's -43* Now that's cold.

I'm with ttb ( TMB/Thanachart ) and I received an international transfer yesterday for 130k baht. Something doesn't sound right with this story. To me this sounds like the daily deposit & withdrawal limits on the account need updating. When I first opened my accounts with TMB the daily deposit limit ( dometic & international ) was 50k baht and the daily withdrawal limit was 20k baht. These can be changed by logging into the ttbonline web site and signing into your account. I easily increased both limits to suit my needs.
