Nah. It's in a not really nice part of Bury.

Bury has a nice part?

Anyone know where I can buy a Playstation 3 or 4, in Phetchabun? I have a PS2, but it's years out of date, and no new games are available for it.

Thanks for any help

Doesn't alter my opinion. Watched games from all the major European Leagues over the weekend, most of them much better than the average PL game. If the EPL is so great, why don't the very best players in the world, Messi, Ronaldo, Haaland, Lewandowski, Neymar, Mbappe, etc play in it?

Your opinion. Not shared by many.

Really ? My comment on EPL referees is obviously shared by FIFA. Not a single EPL official was picked to referee at the last World Cup.

The EPl is vastly over rated. The referees are disgraceful, and the way they operate VAR is laughable, compared to other countries. 

beIN is great value, at a one-off payment of 699 Baht for the season. It's my second season with them. Live football every day from Serie A, La Liga, Ligue 1, MLS, A-League, FA Cup, Scottish PL, Liverpool TV, Chelsea TV. Absolutely love it!

Can you add me to this years list please, Wilai? Thank you

Today was the 2nd time I have submitted my TM47 online, what a breeze...........now that the system works after all of those years of depending on it work or not and so many TVF complaining that it was the pits, it makes it so much easier now not to have to drive 2 hours and 40 minutes return to drop off the form, saving me time and petrol, besides I like staying in my PJ's all day.

I'll say hello, next time I see you at the market!  lol

Well done and congratulations to Evenstevens, on your win. Again a big thank you to Wilai, for all of his hard work in running the competition.

BEiN is brilliant! I watch the MLS on a morning from my exercise bike, A-League on an afternoon, and the others at night. The SPL is a massive bonus! All for a very reasonable price.

My 90 day report is due in a couple of weeks time. Recently renewed my Retirement 'stamp" and suspect I lost the 90 day paper then. I can't find the 90 day paper anywhere, do I need to worry about this?

I've now qualified for my UK Government pension. I can either get it paid into a UK Bank, or paid into a Bank here, BUT as I understand it, they transfer the money as Thai Baht, and get the exchange rate in the UK, before transferring the pension here. The last time (20 years ago) I exchanged Pounds for Baht in the UK, the exchange rate (compared to exchanging in Thailand), was abysmal. Anyone done this recently? What rate can I expect, compared to the Thai rate?

Thanks for any replies

I'm in the same boat, (different condition), to the OP. How hard is it for Immigration to send out a three month extention to last years retirement visa, provided the financial rules have been adhered to?  Really disappointed, as it looks as though I'll have to put my life on the line, by going to the Immigration office. It's the 21st Century for goodness sake, they should be doing better than this.

Obviously another well thought out idea from the powers that be. You can't fix stupid. It would not surprise me if we end up with soldiers on the street with road blocks.

I'd be quite happy to see that. Better to enforce compliance, than allow the virus to run rampant through people's stupidity.

In my village there is only me and my wife who have been wearing masks for the past few weeks. There is no such thing as social distancing, and life goes on as before. A time bomb waiting to happen, unfortunately.

People seem to be under the impression that if they passed the temperature check at Makro, three weeks ago, then they don't have the virus!  Really!!

One of the main criteria for prevention is good hand washing. In more than twenty five years here, I've never seen a Thai wash their hands properly after using the toilet. Most have a quick rinse with jutr water (NO SOAP!!), and others just don't bother at all, even after taking a dump.
Unless they are shown how to do it properly by public information films, this crisis will get very serious here, very quickly.

Thank you!

Photos taken In our garden in Phetchabun. Photo of mother, and chicks, but no one know what the name of the birds is.

Thanks for all replies.

Wow ! Used that road for twenty years, never seen it like that before !

They had various sizes in the shop I need to measure up the distances needed in the house, before buying the size I can that will be the best fit.

If I use two of the orange sockets, for a laptop upstairs and one downstairs, will my wife still be able to use the wifi for her phone ? (She's a Line addict)  lol

Thanks to everyone who replied, for their help and advice, much appreciated.

That begs the question what is the router attached to?  And what speed is it normally?  

It's attached to a TOT box which is for our telephone. It's supposed to be 100Mb down and 50 up, but the best I've had was 70 down. Happy with anything over 20, as long as I can watch the football and the internet is not too slow.
Please see attached photo.

 just make sure you obtain the correct colour cable!

 

yellow or blue for example  for your peripheral connections.

 

Not the red ones  (computer to computer)

I'm pretty sure the cable I've seen was grey, had about 30 metres of cable for 299 Baht.
