    During my time in the tropics I have been bitten by a hundre different "bugs".


    This worked for me:


    - At the first "itch", don't scrach the affected area. Take a cotton puff, drench it in 70% medical alcohol and apply it vigorously to the affected area. Minor bug bites will be neutralised this way. Important: Act at the first itch, not 3 days later.


    Not sure if this will work on spider bites, snake bites or bites inflicted by polar bears.

    It's not a bug bite it's ringworm.

    Can anyone recommend a trustworthy and reasonably priced ac tech? I’d like to get 3 old acs cleaned. TLC and Daikin brand. Located in Chiang Mai. 

    Shouldn't cost more then 500bht doesn't matter the make. Clean them every 6 months .

    I am with 3BB fiber and pay for V.I.P. guaranteed 200 Mbps .Bedroom TV with Ethernet often buffers using Wizz IPTV . Do a Speed Test , OOkla / Fast and they both show about 50 - 70 Mbps .No VPN is used . Daytime in my office , on my laptop using wifi , I get about 215 Mbps . Turn on my VPN ( Surf Shark ) and it drops to 20 Mbps . My phone that is using the house router , shows 200 Mbps not using a VPN .

     Do you think that the 50 - 70 Mbps speed in my bedroom  is causing the tv buffering ? Strange thing is that when the TV programme comes back on , it picks up from where it left off , which suggests an IPTV blip ?

    3BB techs said my devices were too old , Smart TV 5 years old and T95 Android box 1 year old . Techs connected their android box  and after 20 minutes of playing around achieved 1000 Mbps . Is this b/s ? BTW , the bedroom TV has sometimes hit 220 Mbps speed testing .

    A 1000bps will drop down to 200 using wireless a d. Ot a cable .

    Pounding on the car trying to get in would have made them cannon fodder in my book, I'd be leaving the scene too, probably head to a police station though. But if I am being threatened, I'll run over everyone in town on my way out of harms way, I have no problem whatsoever using my 4000lb weapon.

    And the insurance company are the mandatory insurance company would hand them over a couple of thousand dollars for each death.

    Surrounded by a mob of taxi riders with their actions well known, I can understand why he didn't want to exit the car...

    but he should have sat there and not got away, just waited for the authorities to arrive.

    If you call any insurance company they would tell you stay in the car and move your car away so it's not blocking the road and get away from the danger and wait for the police.
