  1. +1. There are now Superrich booths at some BTS stations. Asoke has one, but as Lorry said, they offer slightly less than the main ones in the sois opposite the northern end of Central World, to the left of Big C when looking at it. There is also another place called Vasu that gives pretty decent rates near Nana Soi 3 I think. It's a while since I last went there. BTW. SuperRichTH and SuperRich have apps so you can check their rates on line on your phone..
  2. Never see any fat Thai conscripts. Only officers.
  3. Preferential treatment for the rich, famous, hi-so etc., happens all over the world. Nothing new.
  4. Step aside for another Shinawatra? Perhaps that's what the golf weekend was about.
  5. OP. Be careful. Leaving bad reviews here in Thailand (deserved or otherwise) can get you sued.
  6. Maybe he tried applying for the THB10,000 Digital Wallet under a false name. 😀
  7. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/other/yvette-cooper-makes-migration-blunder-that-will-open-doors-at-border/ar-BB1qY00c?ocid=socialshare&pc=U591&cvid=e6bfe842ab8349c2aebed7982111c5d1&ei=25
  8. i read somewhere this morning that Labour will keep it at 29K.
  9. Could try contacting, what was her name? Khun Nat? She must have a lot of contacts in that industry.
  10. I just completed this quiz. My Score 20/100 My Time 90 seconds  
  11. That'll tell them David. Apple will be shaking in their boots. I saw nothing that denigrated Thailand. Queues at immigration? Even the stern looking Immigration Officer was spot on. It had a little bit of a feel of that Hangover film.
  12. By the sounds of it that Syrian (supposed schoolboy)was a real nasty piece of work, and some of the teachers at the school were warned off from telling the truth. Watch the Jordan Peterson interview of Tommy Robinson. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_3r0_0BoFY He also talks about the asian grooming gangs in his hometown of Luton who get young western schoolgirls hooked on drugs and force them to have sex with dirty old men. He describes how this was what started him on his activism. Good on him showing the movie in the UK. It has already been shown in the US. The whole West is in decline. The social cost of unchecked illegal immigration has taken all the money meant for welfare, education, transport etc. And God forbid WW III comes along. Does anyone think these people will be signing up to fight for their new hosts?
  13. Maybe, I was just thinking that if batteries have a short-ish life and it is expensive to change the whole lot, that might be why Thais aren't buying.
  14. How long do the batteries last in an EV before they need changing? How much does it cost to change them in an average sized family car? I am not up on EV's , but say something around Honda City or Honda Civic size.
  15. I don't know about Samsung, but the "Accessibility section" on iPhones is to do with things to aid people with hearing or sight problems. Have you turned anything like that on recently?
  16. Koh Samui Immigration. Thats why I posted it in the Samui forum rather than the general one, as different offices never seem to have the same requirements. As for the form, I can't recall if it had a number or not. I just told the IO what I wanted to do and he gave me the form to fill in.
  17. Was it Sretta's own idea to put a criminal in his government? Or was he ordered to by Thaksin? Either way, it seems a stupid move, leaving him open to just this kind of action. They never seem to learn.
  18. Went along to Immigration on Tuesday to get my visa stamps changed to new passport. It was packed after the holiday weekend. Why they can't provide a wall rack with all the various forms available I don't know. Would make things far easier. I had to queue for thirty minutes just to get the required form. The other bottleneck is only having two IO's checking documents downstairs. REQUIREMENTS TO CHANGE STAMPS: Completed form. Copies of both photo page and latest visa stamp in old passport. Copy of photo page from new passport. All signed. Checked downstairs and issued queue number. Handed in upstairs. Told to come back in a week. I will have to check they also move my Multiple Re-Entry Stamp. HTH
  19. That clarifies things. The message says they require extra information, but are asking for the exact same things that they already have from me. I.e. In my case a copy of my passport ID page and a selfie. What they are after is any actual changes / updates to that info., such as a new passport
  20. I too received said email yesterday. Will update through the app on mobile phone.
  21. Another one. I was just in the big Lotus top of Chaweng Lake Road. As you go in, turn right by MK restaurant and in front of cashier desks there is a phone repair stall. They have signs up saying Macbook and Notebook repairs.
  22. Nitecore. But not cheap. Over THB500. Might be better to just buy multiple cheap ones and keep swapping them out.
  23. Hydraulic Acid? Does that make you go like a jackhammer? 😀 Or do you mean Hyaluronic Acid?
