  1. Overpriced? This week I was in the Makro, Moccona is more than 30% more expensive. There I have little hope that Thailand will allow it, how about Aldi and Lidl, with that they are throwing up their own glasses, not going to happen. Incidentally, I have noticed that many foreign companies are now all Thai-owned, think Lotus, Makro and many others.
  2. Yes, now that you mention it, but are you aware that this figure was appointed this week as a temporary replacement for the president of the WEF? That also says it all, I think.
  3. Wonder if alcohol is consistently checked here after a collision.
  4. They have since found out after years that most were asleep during the film screening, and have now come to the conclusion that it does not bring down the number of road casualties.
  5. Until you find out that her battery is really dead, what will you do then? If it is a lithium battery it should never be discharged to 100%....
  6. The most obvious is that Ali is an Algerian or of Algerian descent, after all it was a French colony for years.
  7. Love making these things myself, meanwhile I make my own croquettes here, following a recipe from my mother, (recipe is over 70 years old)
  8. You can also make the ‘Leverkaas’ yourself if you have a food processor. Or roast mince, see photo. You could also try ‘Dutch Cheese’ by Gerrit Hoekstra Dutchcheese4you.shop
  9. Personally, I never go to eat Mookata, my girlfriend always goes with the family and I stay at home. No worries, then. By the way a weird photo, thought it was blood but it's the burn marks, would suggest putting a metal plate under it.
  10. "If Phuket was a toilet someone is about to press the flush button." Am I glad I left that area long ago. Otherwise, I too would be flushed. And when it was really washed away, with the tsunami, I was fortunately on the boat.
  11. That's a late response but it just so happens that I found an agent in BKK who does everything for 19,000, and don't have to show up at the immigration office myself. Still I have my doubts, get a new passport next month and have to send it with the old passport, bankbook, photos to the agent there, it seems a bit risky to me, suppose the envelope gets lost....
  12. All things considered, I wonder if they still want farangs in LOS.... What a world we live in, controlle, controlle and more controlle, and those who take advantage of this know their way around.
  13. As a former resident, having lived there for 11 years, from 1999 to 2010, I agree with you completely. My son wanted to go back again in 2023 have visited him then, but never again for me either, unfortunately. Destroyed by the people you described but also because of the unbridled building lust of the property developers.
  14. you could try the following, as I see many more, go to: https://github.com/mirroradept/pirateproxy, then choose: https://tpb.proxyninja.org By the way I use a VPN localised in Andorra, maybe that makes some difference too.
  15. Thais, as soon as they get in the car they feel like royalty, and the plebs have to step aside, you see it everywhere. And I don't think I will live to see this change.
  16. Believe me, I have a lot of faith in the Swiss, and especially when it comes to high tech and fine mechanics think, Omega, Studer, Rolex, too many to mention.
  17. It depends on how much time you have. About 40 years ago I first bought physical gold in Europe, after a certain time it started falling and falling, then you have to make a decision, nobody knows when it will rise again, then sold all the gold at a loss. And yes, with the knowledge of now....
  18. You would expect a bit more knowledge from a Swiss, wouldn't you?
  19. More than 10 years ago, I started buying 99.9% physical gold, in addition to Thai gold, concerns Thai gold from 25,000 Bath to now more than 52,000 Thb. As things stand I don't think I did wrong, for that reason I don't understand your comment very well. Yes, indeed, NOW you should not go and buy it.... Needless to say, when I first came to Thailand about 30 years ago, Thai gold was 5000 Thb/Bath.
  20. No, sorry that's not what I mean. Before the earthquake, there have been 2 incidents regarding viaduct collapse on the 35. Now I had read somewhere that a third incident had occurred during the earthquake, and about that I was wondering if that is really the case.
  21. Perhaps in the future these instructions will be given regarding ‘How safe can we build’ Was there another piece falling down on Highway 35 recently for the third time?
  22. Enter fake name, fake passport number...why make yourself known if you want to use the internet at the airport! That works too, for years.😚
