I thought that the bag had already been stated to be genuine by Hermes.. If so. I hope he hasn't had the full nip and tuck down below. Reverting to plain old Mr. S. might prove difficult

Not Buriram, but seeing as its your eyes, Rutnin Eye Hospital in Bangkok is pretty good. https://www.rutnin.com/en/home/index.php HTH.

Yes. It can sometimes get boring in the wet season if it rains pretty much all day for many days. That puts the beach out. Luckily not so bad so far this year. Lots of gyms. A few beach clubs. a go cart track, a Padel (like tennis) club, a climbing wall, but not open yet, and I think a shooting range, but not sure if that is still open. I suppose it depends what you like to do. There are a couple of cinemas, and a fair bit of nightlife. Girlfriend? You will have to look yourself based on your own preferences. HTH

It seems like the Chinese are operating secretly not only in Thailand. https://apple.news/A1SRsh-DFQDu8K9nFKJZuOQ

I wonder if any will be blacklisted?

Looking at the photo. Were they also selling Mercedes spare parts?

I presume they just pay in using their passbook. Once the regulation is implemented, those without a card, who have to pay in via a Teller, will be charged a fee for doing so. For many Thais, that could be almost half a days pay if the banks charge a similar fee to some card withdrawals. I don't know about withdrawals. Perhaps they can use Passbook and Thai ID card.

Now just waiting for the next news story where a student from the attackers school gets jumped in a revenge attack.

Thanks. I was wondering if I could just do a walk in as haven't been resident in the UK for over seven years now.

It might be that they have some software algorithm that changes the price according to popularity of any item. Or if coming from outside Thailand, due to currency fluctuations. I had a similar thing on Aliexpress the other week. I watched the price of an item change daily in a particular store. I put it down to dollar fluctuations. I stopped watching it for a week or so, checked it again yesterday and the price had dropped. Not talking big numbers. Ranged from THB5000 to THB5100.

I think if one already has a UK Paypal account, it can continue to be used if no longer UK resident. I still use mine connected to my UK bank account. But as for applying for a new account while non resident it would be neccessary to check the current requirements.

If you have an amazon account, you could order one from Amazon UK (www.amazom.co.uk) and have it delivered to you here. You just have to add your Thai address to your account. I often buy from both Amazon UK and Amazon US and have things sent here. You probably want to look for one that already has some credit on it so you can use it straight away.. Some examples: https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=uk+sim+card&crid=3K9QAMSFDRLKG&sprefix=UK+sim+card%2Caps%2C273&ref=nb_sb_ss_pltr-ranker-acceptance_1_11 Other than that. Get somone in the UK to buy one and post it to you. HTH

I have used Residence Certificate for driving licence application, buying and /or selling motorbikes, opening bank accounts, and recently as part of a KYC request for proof of address.

I think you can only get a Moderna booster by going private nowadays. I have seen Both Bumrungrad and Dr. Donna advertising Moderna booster shots. i wouldn't mind another Pfizer booster myself as I am going back to the UK in a few weeks and the infection numbers are increasing there. I might try a get a bivalent shot while there. .

Thanks. I just looked them up and you are right.

Handed himself in. Monkey House time beckons.

There might be a few Russian oligarchs willing to take them up on their offer. So they can moor their yachts on the Chaophraya.

I noticed that one of my girlfriend's roses has these weird white things on them. Can't tell if they are some sort of white lice, a form of fungus, or other infestation. See photo below. Do any of the gardeners among you know what they are? Also what do we need to do to get rid of them before they infect the other plants. I tried spraying them with alcohol hand sanitiser, but they did not move. Which I thought they might have done if insects.

The one thing that I have noticed our youngster picking up from Youtube, is that US propensity to use the word like in almost every sentence. I am trying to drum it out of her, explaining that when she makes a statement, it is, or it isn't. It's not like. This video of Miriam Margolyes explaining to Will.i.am shows what I mean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLOi5p59O_A

I know nothing about tailoring, so this is just a suggestion. What about trying one of the fashion schools? You might be able to find someone there that could do such work.

There was an article here a few weeks ago saying that bivalent vaccines would not be available in Thailand until next year.

I often wonder how all those people that live to be over 100 feel. They may still have family, but looking back, must have lost all their friends through life.

I tell you. All these transfers and moves to inactive posts that are coming up. It's starting to look like musical chairs.

Yes. First the supermarkets. Now the mobile communications. Wasn't there also talk of AIS taking over 3BB? Lack of competition is never good for the consumer.

So what. Looks like he is enjoying himself.
