  1. Yes, but... The metal is in my case aluminum, those holes could be ruined fast. That would require to have the metal already in exactly the right place fixed on the wall... Thanks for all your answers. I will go with the aluminum on wood on wall method. At least in my case I think that is the best option.
  2. In time? And in fair amounts? I don't know the situation but Thailand being Thailand I wouldn't be surprised if the compensation doesn't match the cost of a private hospital and maybe they have to fill many forms and wait many months to get paid.
  3. I have a few center punches and a few drilling machines. But none of those tools allow an exact hole on a plastered brick wall. Wood, yes, metal, yes, but not a plastered brick wall.
  4. As far as I know they have, or at least had, some meet and touch sessions with other famous girls in Japan. They seem to have lot of specialized events and places for anybody's taste.
  5. I work with computers, and with databases, since decades. And when I read something like above, then I have my doubts. How big can a database for a forum be? Not huge! If it is so big, can't all old data, i.e. everything until last month or last year, be transferred first, and only a little new data later offline? If you do it right it isn't that complicated and it isn't that time consuming.
  6. Thanks The way I understood is to take a straight piece of wood and put it with, let's say, 5 screws on a wall. If the wood is straight and the wall not, then there will be some screws with no gap to the wall and other screws with maybe 5mm or 10mm gap between the wood and the wall. Then fill those gaps, i.e. with little pieces of wood, and then you have a straight piece of wood on a not so straight wall.
  7. I had to train my young girlfriend, and I did that exactly the way I wanted it. Now she is still together with me - mostly well trained. 😉
  8. Music, good, nature, good, but how about a beautiful girl and not such old woman?
  9. How about girls with teddy bears, ponytails trying to act like a 20 years old?
  10. When I search on my Android phone I find SSO+ Social Security Office Thailand. I didn't install it yet. Is that the one?
  11. Can you please tell us the app name or a screenshot of it. I like to install it. Thanks
  12. Ok, the skirts could be a little shorter and high heels would be nice. But they are fine like they are. AKB48 same same...
  13. In part I understand that. But then, is there no better way to protest vote than voting for a serial liar maniac? He could do real damage. Yes, there is a swamp in Washington, and the idea to remove it is good. But is voting for the GOP and Trump the way to do that? NO
  14. I wouldn't bet that she will think even only one time.
  15. Like: before that she had significant mental health issues. And after that she had significant mental health issues. Blame the guard.
  16. I think Biden is a bad presidential candidate. But I still think he is a lot better than the alternative. Recently I saw an interview and one guy had a good description. He said look at Bidons advisors. He had many of them for many years and they are loyal to him. Trump hires people and tells the public how great these people are. And in many cases, it doesn't take too long before those people are fired by Trump or they resign and then Trump tells us what idiots these people are, and the ex-advisors write books and expose Trump. I think that shows a lot.
  17. Thanks for your comment. I agree with what you write. It would be good if nobody would use violence. But if person A uses violence against person B, then nobody should be surprised if person B retaliates - independent of male or female.
  18. I remember a couple of years ago I visited a DTAC shop to ask them about some prices. I think they had 3 people "working" there. I was the only customer. And what did they do when I asked them? They called their service line on one of their phones and handed me the phone. Ask them! That was not the service which I expected.
  19. Yes, I know that in general the service is not expensive in Thailand. What annoys me is that they clearly spent a lot of money on advertisement and marketing and this and that. But they are not willing to show the same information on their WWW and App and not when I call them. They could have that info in an Excel file, and it would cost them basically nothing. But no, they don't do that. Annoying!
  20. Ok, let me try again. There was a time when I used phone and SMS a lot. I had a promotion for 300min per month phone calls, x number of SMS, etc. Now I use most of the time WhatsApp to chat with people and call them, and that most of the time when I am connected to a WIFI network. I use the mobile phone provider data to check news and my email, I don't watch long movies in high resolution somewhere outside. I want a mobile phone provider which is reliable. And I don't want to pay more than necessary. I checked the invoices from the last couple of months. I never used more than 100min phone calls per month. And I never used all the GB from my internet package. I expected that I see on the website and on the app of the mobile phone provider all packages which I can change to, from the cheapest to the most expensive. And I would hope for honesty. I can see in my invoice how much I called and how many GB I used. That information is from them. They could easily tell me that for me the cheapest package is just fine, because I don't use anything more than that. But they make it difficult to change to something cheaper - even if that is in their range of products. Change in app: No Change with a phone call to their support: No Only after asking a couple of times do they offer what they have. Annoying. I save now about 3000B per year. That is not much. But what's the point of spending that money if it has absolutely no advantage? My gf also changed to the cheaper promotion. Another 3000B per year. A little here, a little there, it adds up.
  21. With the laws in this country, I am not sure if I am allowed to mention the name of the provider. I use a big mobile phone provider in Thailand since many years. I pay my bills at the end of the month depending on the usage. I used their 599B promotion since many years. Now they sent me a message that that promotion doesn't exist anymore, and they recommend the 669B promotion. So, I check in my app from that company to look at available packages. The cheapest they offer on their app cost 649B. Then I looked on their website. The cheapest there is 399B. So, I called them and asked to which package I can change. The friendly saleswoman told me the cheapest is 449B. I asked her how about that 399B offer from the web? Her answer: I don't see that, I will ask someone else to call you back. About 10min later someone called me back and I asked about the 399B package. Yes, I can have that. Then I asked if they have anything cheaper. Yes, 349B. Which conditions? And he told me about the free call time, internet usage, etc. Even the cheapest package was more than twice of what I normally use. So now I changed to that one. Summary: Now I pay about half of the price of their recommended package. The phone provider obviously knows how much I call and how much internet I use. They could have easily recognized that even the cheapest package includes more minutes of phone calls and more GB than I used in the last 3 months together. But no, they want to charge more. I write this here because others might have the same problem, they want to pay no more than necessary, but the phone company makes it extraordinary difficult to choose a cheap promotion which they offer. Annoying!
  22. Cost of treatment: maybe 200k or more Fine: 100k No surprise that they chose the cheaper option. After all, a private hospital is a business. To solve this, I suggest the following: a) Make sure any hospital would be compensated for their services. b) Fine them at least 10 times as much as the service cost might be. Problem solved.
