Had lunch with a dear friend at our family run restaurant. River level high, no problem, a "ferry" was provided!!

Today high:- Pak Kret Muang Pathum Thani

Yup, and scarily it's not necessarily old Unix systems. Unless it's specifically stated in the documentation one of my standard questions during a software review is "is the system Y2K38 compliant". It's really scary how many are not (mostly embedded systems like POS and credit card terminals).

Government are employing Sir Elton ... Album art from "Don't shoot me, I'm only the piano player" - the first album I ever bought.

Cue the "Jaws" music ...

Yeah, always very pleasant and quick although we usually have to wait for the Big Boss to roll up to sign off (his parking spot is right by the waiting area).

High tide this morning: - Definitely up on yesterday, 90cm until "worry". I hope the occupants of that spirit house are "water-gods"!! Pak Kret Muang Pathum Thani

Yeah, "activity" and passbook update isn't an issue can use the machine any time.

Got an actual link??

Mainly coz the banks aren't open when we usually attend. Otherwise, we end up sitting under the hot sun (ok there's a roof) for hours!

Thanks @Liquorice I reckon even our dozy lot can duplicate that. Famous last words there!

During the mega-flood we stayed in our 10th floor condo. Unfortunately, both the building transformer and genset were in the basement!! We spent nearly 6 months operating with a 1.2kW generator on the balcony. No lifts of course, we hauled food and fuel up using a block and tackle.

In the past I've been using local income to obtain my marriage extension at Pathum Thani. This year I have to use money in the bank, the $$$ has been there since March, so no issues with seasoning. A couple of questions, please keep specific to Pathum Thani, they have their own little quirks: - How old can the bank letter be? Do they need a passbook update on the day of application? Does anyone have a sample bank letter? I just KNOW that our local bank will find difficulties in providing the requisite documentation. Anything else that's special to our friends at the Pathum office.

Not to mention that it needs to be treated as a hazardous cargo

Madam is talking to Puyai-Baan about sandbags!

I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you!!

Does Thai NGV/CNG really have no (added) smell?? https://www.pttplc.com/en/Products/Ourbusinessbypttplc/Gasunit/Pttngv/Pttngv.aspx I'm not sure I agree with point about "remarkable safety"!!

"American Express will do nicely thankyou ..."

Promptpay at the bottle shop and builder's merchant (and to our building contractor). Truemoney at Lotus and Seven. Local credit card at Makro, Homepro etc. etc. Cash for the maid and gardener.

Yeah, it wasn't going to take a rocket scientist to work out there was a CNG leak, buses, even ancient Thai ones, don't go whoosh like this one did with no leak 😞 The unauthorised modifications (which failed causing the leak) and the failure of the axle is more than somewhat worrying 😞
