Don't they also have the Death Railway in Kanchanaburi? Bridge on the River Kwai.

I agree. it's not easy to find cotton t-shirts etc in most Thai shops. Maybe in the big malls in Bangkok, but even there you have to search. As for all the synthetic stuff, It's a marketing ploy by the manufacturers to charge fortunes for what is basically polyester. They now call it "Technical fibre", and even the big fashion houses use it to make most of their clothing nowadays. Best to find a shop that sells materials, like this one on corner of Sukhumvit Soi 14 or 16. Can't remember. Couple of minutes walk from Asok. On the corner where you turn to Benjakitti Park. https://www.facebook.com/hyhfabric Then find a tailor to make your shirts. Or order on the internet. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=100+percent+cotton+polo+shirts+for+men&crid=BTHQ4QF1YXNN&sprefix=100%+cotton+polo+for+men%2Caps%2C342&ref=nb_sb_ss_ts-doa-p_1_24

We all know about the various different parking areas in Central, limiting use to specific groups; VIP, Exclusive, Family, Pets, Women, Supercars, Superbikes etc. I might have missed one or two. Well on a visit on Saturday, I noticed a new one. It seems they are building an EV charging station parking area. Pretty soon I will have to buy an electric Ferrari, take the girlfriend, daughter, and the dog when I go shopping. Just to get a chance of parking. What next? Ladyboy parking?

Nor have I until about a month ago. When all of a sudden, every Google search on my iPhone requires me to complete one or more Captchas. Either that or I get a message along the lines of "detected suspicious activity from your IP address. Please try again later." There is an option on iPhones that is supposed to prevent or reduce this, but it doesn't work for me. See below: You can turn this bypass on or off. Go to Settings > [your name] > Password & Security, then turn Automatic Verification on or off.

Back in the old location by the look of things. They were doing it all up (Sound Club) when I passed by there last week. KhunPer probably still sleeping after two nights of closing and opening parties. ????

I have recently had to stop using it due to constantly being asked to tick Captcha boxes with every search. I tried every remedy that I could find on the internet, without success. In the end I changed browser search engine to DuckDuckGo.

A question. If someone arrives on a visa exempt, then wants to change to Non O, See where I have copied and marked in bold below from No.8 on that linked form, How can they show a rental receipt for the past three months? RentalAgreementbetweentheApplicantandtheLandlord; Acopy of house registration. Location map of the house and a rental receipt Past three months.

Looking at that beach photo in the article, I can see it is only 'near full capacity'. There are still a few patches of sand that don't have deckchairs on them. ????

When I saw the title of this thread, I thought "Elephant Buffet." ????

When I asked, I was told it was for good luck.

But if you visit their website, they make various different named pot noodles.

Dare not name which brand in the interest of safety.

Looks like whoever took the photo of the lady beat him to it.

Make sure you pronounce her name right: An Yu Ching. Or you might get this one:

Yes. That is their business model. Hook you with cheap printer prices, then charge the Earth for ink cartridges. My Canon printer, scanner, copier is not that old, but as you say, it might be better to buy a new one if this shortage continues. I have finally managed to source the particular black ink cartridge I need from Lazada. Though not deivered yet. A bit late for printing all the documents required for my retirement extension, but it should at least last me the next few months. @Ginkas. Yes. This article still applies. There is a severe shortage of Canon ink cartridges.

Perhaps he rushed off to write a song about him. ????

I took a photocopy of the Blue Book for my apartment building. It does not have my name in it, but is always accepted for proof of where I live, and has been for years. The IO then stapled a piece of paper in my passport that acknowledges that I have reported my address to them. That paper stays in my passport and I even photocopy it along with all passport pages each year as part of my retirement extension renewal. Obviously different for each Imm Office. HTH

It's not so much the technology that's the problem. It's fitting it all on small screens. Not everyone has 20/20 vision. Plus, the banks should think of their elderly customers who don't use, or are afraid of using these new technologies. They are numerous and often have accumulated wealth throughout their lives.

I went into Kasikorn Bank this afternoon to apply for the new Online Debit Card as they will be terminating my current one at the end of this month, due to the fact that they are moving said card from online banking to their K Plus app. I couldn't apply through the app as they said I could in the SMS they sent me. Even the staff in the bank couldn't find it in the app. Instead I had to do it through a K-Bank ATM. This is the replacement for the K-Web online shopping card. Next stop, some new specs as some of the font on those apps is too small for my eyes.

Why TF is a caretaker disciplining the children in the first place? Surely that's the teacher's job. Not some jumped up janitor on a power trip.

I like the white sourdough bread from Tops. 90 baht, but although they haven't increased the price, the loaves themselves are getting a lot smaller. Doesn't seem to go hard as quick as the other white breads they sell.

I'm not sure using smartphones is any more secure than using internet banking. Nothing to stop someone forcing a victim to hold the phone up for facial recognition in order to steal from their account. Also. Phone screens are not good for those with bad or impaired vision. At least with internet banking, it can be done on a larger screen. And as another poster said, there seem to be more options available via internet banking. Personally, although I use the scan feature to pay for things in the supermarket, I feel much more comfortable doing online banking in the comfort of my own home, on my own network. As an aside. Kasikorn are waiving fee for their new K Online Debit Card (100 baht joining fee and annual fee 150 baht) first year, from Jan 1 2023 until 30 Apr 2023. I presume this is replacing the old K-web shopping card. But they are also moving it from online banking to their K Plus app. So it seems other banks are pushing their apps to replace some online banking services.

While trying to source printer ink cartridges, I came across this article. https://www.windowscentral.com/canon-printer-chip-shortage Basically, due to the current worldwide shortage of semi conductor chips, companies such as Canon are being forced to ship ink cartridges without chips in them. They will apparently provide a work around on their website for the warnings given when using unofficial ones, or any without their chip in them.

Did you sneak out without paying her? ????

Expect they will shortly be seen being sold on small stalls everywhere.
