Buy 3 jars of ordinary marmalade, warn all 3 in a pan of hot water, pour through a strainer into a saucepan, put the unwanted peel back into one of the emptied jars cover with some strained marmalade, replace lid, do the same with the strained marmalade, then send the peel one to me, don't mind paying for 1 of the 3 jars plus postage.

Thanks,but I would rather just buy the shredless marmalade what I have been doing for years.

Anyone know where I can get shredless marmalade, may I emphasis shredless, used to buy it from Lazada but they seem to have stopped selling it. Siam expat food shop in Pattaya sells it, but looking at their website they do not have it for delivering.

If you can't be helpful, just run along and stop using a stupid sad emotican.

There are an average of about 60 people dying on the roads in Thailand EVERY DAY.  I don't know what makes some deaths newsworthy than others, because this was a very typical accident - it involved an underaged rider on a motorcycle, a combination that is statistically over-represented in traffic fatalities.  

I get the impression that in most cases where there is an underage fatality, it is mainly kept out of the news.

Same old story - enforcement.  If there was proper enforcement there would be no 13 year old kids riding motorbikes and car/pick up drivers would drive to a better standard.

 

In most countries, a few tragedys would spur some form of action.  In Thailand all that happens is some talk about new laws, road safety campaigns bla bla bla......... but that's all that happens, talk. Two weeks later, all is forgotten until the next time. Never mind, fill out this accident report sir.

 

Meanwhile the police sit in their offices eating Som Tam.

The Highway Patrol drivers have only a small budget for using fuel, that is why they can't always do their jobs as they have to spend a lot of time in their offices.

Take a look when you pass a Highway Patrol station. there is usually always at least one patrol car parked up.

Allowing U-turns anywhere into oncoming traffic is dangerous.

 

That's why clever societies have roundabouts. 

Have you ever watched the average Thai drivers behaviour at roundabouts?

Depends on the bank, bangkok bank only allows the app on one device

The bank is Krungthai.

Is it possible to have the same bank app on both my smartphones?

I would say 90% of the folks here disagree ....  there is no way I'm going to sit in a Thai bank for 1/2 hr or more just to deposit money into my account,   the ATM is quite fast and convenient if one know to press the buttons.  

I would always want to put the money into my account in the old fashioned way, but you are right in saying you would not want to wait if there was a few folk in front of you. Neither would I.

Sorry to say, but you complicate it far too much. The only thing he would have needed to know all was ok, was a receipt on his deposit, which the machine ask if you wish to print after transaction done. Receipt is not a new thing, but something we always been using to confirm things. The bank has no obligation as the person who deposit money did not care about any receipt.
 

They could help for good PR, but have absolutely no obligation to do that. Moreover, why would they return the deposit, when the person not wait for his receipt of the transaction?
 

What? The bank is wrong? What CDM, not ATM, is not working? No, the sensor did not fail, because another person came to do a deposit, which led to that the box opened. The ADM worked perfectly, but the man who deposit, did not finish the transaction, nor waited for the possibility to print a receipt. Please do not post wrongful information.

What a mixed up post. What is CDM? What is ADM?

The only way the bank could help would be if the people who took the money from the machine actually used an ATM debit card there. How could the bank help without some identifier telling them who it is or a worker there that knew the couple?

I once walked away from an ATM leaving my phone on the machine. The bank reviewed transactions there at the time and informed the police which customer used the ATM after me. I was told they only keep video footage for a week from their cameras.  

Also, the man failed to confirm the deposit. How does anyone know if he actually put 30k in the machine? So why would the bank offer to give him the money? 

Is it really a crime to find money sitting in an ATM machine? What person would not take it if you saw it sitting there? True a police report for theft could be made. But to get the police to actually find and prosecute someone is a different story. 

"What person would not take it if you saw it sitting there?" I wouldn't. That is stealing and I would never steal from ordinary people.

If the government are being greedy and want to make more money they should start a police force up that enforces the law,there is always a motorcycle or car traveling in the wrong direction without lights or someone speeding.

There are times when ie the traffic police cannot enforce the law, if you pass a highway police station why are there always at least one police patrol car parked there?

The answer is they do not have the funds to buy enough fuel for the cars, so cannot do there jobs.

Increased Testereone eg TRT injections can cause this 

 

Overuse of testereone 

What about all these overmuscled testoterone filled guys? They all have big boobs that would shame some of these shirtless big bellied, ugly guys with no shame who fill the streets of Pattaya?

Don't get too carried away.....we all look the same to Thai girls.

Are you saying that the average older farang, with the tattoos. big belly etc look the same to Thai girls as me? When I first came to Thailand I never frequented bars or Beach Road, I never even knew what a barfine was.

I did date plenty of girls, mainly office girls of market stall girls, and I would bet none of them would have dated the average guy over 50.

   That is not true . 

The U.K doesn't support any war crimes by any Country .

The U.K is not "happily complicit in war crimes " .

That is a false untrue accusation . 

But your Grandparents fought for the freedom for you to tell those untruths 

 

 

 

"The U.K doesn't support any war crimes" Really?? What about the British Empire and their atrocities?? What about the way they treated the Irish for 600years?? They tried to stop the Irish from getting their independence, they had to fight and die for it and eventually won it, unlike another country I could mention.

Without knowing all the details, it's hard to tell if this visa will be yet another failure (just like the SMART and LTR visas before) or finally a success story.

 

At this point, it's not even clear where you can apply for this visa and where those 500,000 baht financials have to be shown and kept. That in itself could make or break this visa.

 

Eagerly awaiting more details!

Success stories and Thai governments do not go together.
