There is a limit. I can't remember what it is exactly, but I think it is around US$10,000 / day.

Isn't there a small daily limit on "Tap to Pay"?

I would recommend getting one of the larger capacity ones. We have a Tefal. 3 litre capacity I think, and though great, it's far too small for the three of us. I can just about get away with doing four fish fingers with fries, or a couple of chicken breasts. My next one will be one of the Phillips 5 litre ones. I'm no expert with it, but recently been cooking some fantastic Kentucky Fried Chicken style fillets lately. Found a recipe on Youtube, tried it and the little one loves it. She tells me it's better than "Kimtucky Fried Chicken.", as she calls it. One thing that I have found handy for cooking with the Air Fryer is an olive oil spray. It allows me to lightly coat some foods with a spray of oil, but not too much. Also have to experiment with the cook settings for whichever model you buy.. E.g. I find the settings for fries 200 degrees for 20 mins to be too high and too long. I find 180 for 12-14 mins to be enough.

To paraphrase Jerry Lee Lewis. Goodness gracious! Great balls on fire!

Assault causing death? I would have thought murder would be more appropriate. And filming it <deleted>?

This whole legalisation idea has "gone to pot". Excuse the pun. Those that pushed for it couldn't organise a p*** up in a brewery. Surely they could have drafted a clearer set of laws around this A lot of people will end up doing time due to the confusing way this has been implemented.

If they take white clothes with them, I believe it is some sort of meditation, eat only veg, pray type of thing. Sort of like a three day religious retreat.

I sense another "hub" article coming soon.

Got away from a crowded, polluted city when I retired, to a tropical island with cleaner air, less traffic, better weather. It's not perfect, but I know I would be less fitter, less healthier, and less happier if I had stayed in London. Thailand has its downsides, but the good outweighs the bad as far as I am concerned. As for any hedonism, I outgrew that a long time ago.

If it gets that bad that there is no food, those that have farms and food gardens will have to up their security, or get raided by hungry locals. Shares will be the last thing to worry about if a starving population revolt because they cannot afford to buy anything to eat.

Maybe worth trying the Post Office via EMS.

And where are people going to get this understanding and education if not by ingesting it? I admit I have no interest in trying it. Not by smoking or in my food.

Incurable knob rot. Scary. So what treatment is left? Amputation?

In a few months there will no doubt be an article along the lines of: "Doctors report an increase in death and injury among the elderly. Related to falls caused by them trying to stand on one leg."

Not corruption, but when our little one was about five or six, she once asked as we were driving along, why do policemen alway drink beer, eat pizza and play cards? Don't know where she got that from. Mind you, she might be sharper than me. Whenever she saw a temple fair, she used to point and shout, "Look! Monk party! ????

i used the camera on my computer. Sat in front of it, holding my passport open at the info. page, alongside my face and took the shot.

Maybe the monk has been smoking weed. Everything else is getting blamed on it at the moment. Not nice attacking the old boy like that though.

Some are careful drivers, but in general I find Thai drivers to be inconsiderate and have a real Me Me attitude. I think it's due to a lack of both proper driving lessons and road policing. Everything from overtaking on bends or before the prow of a hill, to just parking their car in the middle of the road while they pop into 7-11. They drive how they like without fear of any likely punishment.

Shorts every day here in Samui. The only time I wear trousers here is to fly back to UK, or if we go to a fancy restaurant. Which is very rare. I have a couple of pairs of lightweight, loose linen trousers, which are fairly comfortable. How the young Thais and Burmese can walk around in this heat in those skin tight stretchy jeans, I don't know.

Someone on this website recommended this the other week: https://www.lazada.co.th/products/i624970696-s1194352662.html?urlFlag=true&mp=1&spm=spm%3Da2o4m.order_details.item_title.1 Food grade so good for drinking water pipes.

Bear in mind the Chinese are forcing many citizens into lockdown due to Covid. This may impact the logistic services the same as we are seeing worldwide.

GF tells me the shop takes a cut of 3%. Maybe all the lottery sellers should start selling Rizla's instead with all these weed shops opening up.

Air con on in room before bed to cool. Switch off when go to bed and just have a fan blowing. In this hot weather, I normally wake around 2:30 and turn it on again for 10-15 minutes. Tips. put something along the bottom of the bedroom door if there is a gap. It's surprising how much cold air escapes there. Also. If you are waking up dehydrated, put a saucer of water in the room to help slow the air drying. Other things that can cause you to wake up dehydrated, are eating late, eating carbs like bread and biscuits, salty foods, and lots of sugary thing. That of course leads to diabetes. Get tested if worried. And certainly not drinking enough water during the day in this hot weather.

Maybe the old boy should have kept one of those guns loaded and on his person.
