  1. You have little idea of how immigration or any office works. You think they might not find out about it and not tax us?
  2. Five years ago, I asked about the 90 days thing, and was told that I can "avoid" it by paying the fine in advance for the year to come. I think it was ฿2000.-?
  3. 1. My granddaughter spent the summer allocating TIN numbers to people that didn't already have one, and this included a few Farangs. 2. I have a Thai ID card for Farangs, and she tells me that the number on that card is the same as your TIN. So all you guys that have the pink card don't need to worry about that. 3. I watched the video and decided that it was useless, at least in my case. 4. At the local tax office they don't know what is going to happen, and they will likely as not interpret all this in their own inimitable, Thai fashion. So WAIT and see. 4. I asked at Immigration, their reply was "Why worry about something that hasn't happened yet?". I agree. Just WAIT
  4. I can't imagine that a pressure washer of normal dimensions would damage roof tiles (unless they pick it up and drop it). The only things you can change on a washer are" distance from the object being cleaned and intensity of the jet. Just tell the guys to start with an open jet (not a direct, pinpoint jet) and see how it goes. It will be difficult to ensure that no water at all will penetrate between the tiles, but that applies during heavy storms anyway.
  5. Well, yeah, that's a good, rational argument. McD's say they have no trace of her ever working for them They checked twice. That doesn't matter. What matters is when people have their precious world view challenged, and respond with "that's a lie".
  6. Oh, it's substantiated alright, even MacDs has said they can't fing any record of her employment. Try reading something else than your current news source.
  7. I have seen Turmeric planted in such situations, and believe me, after a year or two it really takes over. Cash crop also. Plenty of other tropical herbs are equally useful.
  8. OK, so vote for Kamala, who seems to be mentally unstable and judging by her performance in recent interviews, incapable of forming a rational argument (or sentence) , negotiating or making a decision.
  9. My granddaughter just spent three months allocating TIN's to people that didn't have one., including some Thais. If you don't know your number yet, you will when the time comes.
  10. FEMA has failed multiple times in the past to overcome its bureaucratic nature when an emergency occurred. He NEVER said to inject bleach, nor any of the other outright lies that are told about him.
  11. After getting my grandchild through 10 years of schooling, I can categorically state that: you will learn when the holidays start about a week before. As for the end of the holidays, you may (as we experienced it) receive a message at 9pm on the Sunday, telling you that school starts the next day. It may turn out that what actually happens is a totally unimportant 'orientation day' to be followed by another week or two of, not holidays exactly, but being unable to plan any excursions with the kids. I have the feeling that not even the class teachers know any better, only the school head acts on a whim. You get used to it.
  12. If you are sort of 80 years + or so, most doctors will be happy if they can reduce your BP to 140/. Not to say that that is desirable, but the side effects of BP lowering drugs at that age becomes important. Questions asked should be: do you smoke, alcohol consumption, exercise, consumption of carbohydrates (which includes sugar and starch)...? Seed oils and ultra-processed foods also play a role. It's not just about living longer, it's about living a healthy life for as long as possible.
  13. There is no proof that saturated fat is harmful. I thought that this was slowly becoming known. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9794145/
  14. Farang muck. Use coconut oil.
  15. It still confuses me why Farangs still recommend olive oil here. It will usually be adulterated and expensive or unadulterated and VERY expensive. Coconut oil is a much better solution.
