  1. Keeps happening. Need some canaries.
  2. At his age, and for such a miniscule amount, just sad, very sad.
  3. I'm guessing he ran out of money.
  4. US guy, figures. Psychedelics are the new thing in the USA, and legal, or decriminalised, in some US states and cities. "Turn on, tune in, drop out" 555.
  5. There's the real economy, then there's stuff like this.
  6. "Caveat emptor" and all that. To my mind such shenanigans are pretty much par for the course in Phuket, and hardly justifies the rather hyperbolic headline "rocks Phuket".
  7. I'd be lost in the UK. I'm pretty sure reverse culture shock would kick in, me not having been back for 18 years, and with all the changes that have occurred, plus me getting on in years now.
  8. Ages? Teachers are, of course, in a position of trust; this is really a lot worse than those cases we read about where peers, exes, etc., do something similar.
  9. Yeah, hope it turned out OK in the end, but no doubt about it, from an anthromorphic point of view, nature is effing cruel.
  10. Nothing really novel about Katoeys robbing guys in Pattaya, and I recall previous stories about people slashing bags to get at valuables on the Bangkok metro/ skytrain. I suppose putting the two trends together generates interest.
  11. Mostly affecting the MSM community, apparently. Cases of Mpox in children and adolescents are infrequent and generally not severe.
  12. She left him penniless should probably read she left him because he was penniless.
  13. Agree with other posters, the dog, Nhu Dam, was probably killed by the grandfather to his own guilt.
  14. Yes, very happy with the service, and with the bank branch, who went out of their way to help.
  15. Really? I'm a bit surprised given that it is a life saving technique. I can remember reading on this forum about a guy dying after choking on a fish bone, the Heimlich manouevre might well have saved his life.
  16. Thanks. The problem is now resolved. I ended up using a branch (also in a shopping mall) near my lawyer at G. HuaHin Resort and Mall, who I was seeing on a related matter - getting a copy of my passport certified.
  17. I'm looking for an English speaker friendly SCB branch. I need to both change my current address, and get a bank statement sent to that address for the purpose of claiming under a will. I live in Sam Krathai, Kui Buri but am assuming that the most English speaker friendly SCB branch will be in Hua Hin. My original SCB branch was in Bangkok but no longer exists. Thanks for any help.
  18. Indeed, and not so difficult to get in Pattaya, even on a limited income. There was a time, some years ago, when overstaying was a thing, pretty much an accepted strategy, not so much these days.
  19. Don't care that much. Frozen anyway. Unsustainable though, given the state of the UK economy and demographics. That's fairly obvious.
