  1. Been in Portugal 4 years after 17 years in Thailand. Cost of living? Very similar. Property more expensive obvs. Food shopping mostly same. Beer less than half price. Wine ridiculous. Fuel costs more. National parks... Free! Loads of outdoor sports opportunities at great rates
  2. Knee-jerk reaction in Thailand? Well I never
  3. My Mrs was explaining to me about this and kept mis-pronouncing Rolls-Royce, so i couldn't understand it. Then she showed me the Thai news clip - they were also saying ''Loll-Salloy'' Tickled me
  4. Always transferred, never suspended/sacked
  5. Actually there are voice clips from various days when she was asking for the money. The anti corruption commission are involved. It's not just an allegation
  6. This is what happens when you don't fill the teapot to the top...
  7. Nothing new...except Chinese Junk normally arrives by mail
  8. Never heard of pickleball in BKK. There are 2 padel locations however. I have played both, and the one above the Ambassador Hotel is superb
  9. just follow the rest of the World and move on. Its a distant memory....unless you live in China. ???? Let them get on with ''zero covid'' alone
  10. Well, that saved our monthly outgoings of course. We were still operating at a loss but kept all staff employed
  11. We have always paid the company contribution PLUS the employee's contribution, so they have nothing deducted from their salaries. Just wondered if other companies did the same?
  12. Over the last 17 years, we have always paid social security payments for our staff instead of deducting from their salary. Just wondering if others do the same?
  13. Hello Guys, I have been struggling to find a solution for stains on black granite, which was caused by a cleaner putting a bottle of duck pro or similar on the surface, and the stain is in a perfect bottle shape. I have tried poultices of baking soda, talc + peroxide, even some obscure Chinese granite cleaning product on Lazada but nothing has worked. Has anyone else had this issue? Cheers LF
  14. I'm sure they'll form a committee to discuss it
  15. not the first virus the World has experienced, and certainly not the last. If you are vulnerable, by all means mask up if you feel the need...i prefer to strengthen my immune system
  16. ...yet they are all pictured wearing face nappies..
