I don't think Mrs Jones will have a problem there, she's 5ft 9ins tall.

I bought a Lenovo AIO about three years ago, it was terrible with all sorts of problems, then I was advised to get an SSD fitted to it, and it has been great ever since.

Can anyone tell me what you call the thing that you connect to your desktop that stops the computer from stopping caused by a power cut. I want to buy one and need to know what to ask for as my local engineer does not speak English. Thanks.

That is about half the price of my evening meal at one of the local food stalls, so it would be a bit of a worry.

I do not like it when any ordinary, I emphasis ordinary, person gets scammed, except of course scammers themselves.

The OP doesn't say where he wanted to go in the taxi.

"especially if the next election favors an anti-military coalition in Parliament". I would think that will certainly be what the vast majority of the Thai people will vote for, even if it's not a coalition. So why do I think there will still be soldiers around somewhere no matter whatever party "wins" the election?

That's true, but suppose the more tourists that came meant that the unelected caretaker government's personal finances went up it would be a different story. It would not matter to them that having more tourists coming would be greatly beneficial to more ordinary Thai peoples livelihoods.

More to do with the unelected caretaker PM and his soldiers method of government than just Thainess.

I already have it and it has worked well in some places, I had planned to do that on my second visit, but I could not get near anyone as people behind me were getting served in front of me, for the benefit of a certain poster, I will repeat what I said. The bank is a shambles.

A sensible post at last, nice to see someone genuinely trying to help.

It all depends on how much money you draw, if you drew over 200,000Bt you are talking about 250+ Bt. It is not the actual money, it is being robbed by paying to draw your own money that get's me.

I found that parts of Chinatown were bad for this.

I was told the bank was the only one who did not charge extra for drawing money at a branch in another province.

It did, I first went last week and the teller went and brought a guy I assume was the manager, he could not understand a word of English, he went and returned with a phone and gave it to me, I answered and the person at the other end was speaking Thai, he went away and quickly returned again with the phone, I answered it and the person at the other end again spoke Thai. He asked for my phone number and said someone will get back to me. they never did. What a shambles of a bank.

Yes. Sorry TTB.

"I can remember when you were Possum... ?? Or is that incorrect." Yes, that's correct.

I can remember all my teachers names from Primary one right up until I left, also the majority of class mates. Here's a few of P1. David Cooper Gillian Paul John Rutherford Marie Brownlee David Paterson Eleanor Mitchell Ewan Grant Jennifer Mears Robin Cummings Barbara Orr Ian Davis Fiona Keys Gordon Robertson Carol Taylor Alan Muir Sandra Collins Alan Hendry Elaine Walker Ian Riddell Morag Jamieson Ian Henderson Kathleen Young Alister Davidson Margaret Todd Billy Syme Jim Tolson James Armstrong Alistair Black Neil Douglas Douglas McAra Drew Ballantyne

I would be very interested to know how many names you remember from your first day at school, I think there would be an average of about 40 in the class.

So do I when I was not well and about 3 years old.

Absolutely nothing, The woman who says she is Maddy could only vastly remember one thing about being on a beach when she was 5 years old.

I walked in to the TTJ bank in Nakhon Sawan to try and open an account, went to get my ticket. I was given a choice of which service I wanted, there were about seven or eight choices, all in Thai no English, I did not know which one to press, then a guy pressed one for me, I took my ticket, thanked the guy then sat down. I looked at the numbers in order, there were about one of three different letters and three numbers, ie A 230 in no order at all. As I was sitting, I began to notice people getting served in front of me who came in behind me. I then just got up and walked out. Is this bank so much against western customers that they can not have services printed in English? What are the thoughts of any customers of this branch of TTJ? Do other branches of this bank not print their services in English either?

If it is true that what some posters were saying last week, that the majority of the Russians agree with their invasion of The Ukraine, then yes, I would deport them back to their mighty leader in Russia. But I still say that the vast majority of Russians do not agree with the invasion.

Soldiers and politicians in government spring to mind.

This is not related to Thailand but I think it may be interesting. In the News now is a woman who says she is Maddy who disappeared age 5 about 16 years ago. It is reported she only has vague memories if something she remembers when she was about 5 years old. How Far Back Can You Remember? I remember at 4 years old talking to my pal at the back of the house where I lived, who was 5 and at school. I remember telling him I was 4 and cannot go to school yet. I can remember where this was said and all the houses, walls trees and an old wash house nearby. Another thing, I can pick off nearly all the names of the children who I started school with at 5 years old. What about you?
