  1. I think you've nailed it. My 9 year old grandson asked me recently what phone I had when I was a kid and I replied 'One with a rotary dial and a curly cable'. He looked at me blankly so I had to Google it and show him a picture!
  2. This was my experience transferring to Bangkok bank earlier this week. Also there was no drop down menu for the reason for the transfer. It just stated personal expenses with no option to change it.
  3. Thank goodness you didn't put some of your pineapple on it!
  4. I've just attempted to send GBP to Bangkok bank and for the first time Wise did not give me options to choose for the reason for the transfer. It just automatically selected personal expenses. Also, I will have to wait until tomorrow (Tuesday) for the money to arrive... Wise sent me an email confirming that they had received my money yet on the website it states that they are still waiting... This is becoming a bit of a shambles!
  5. Interestingly, I'm just attempting to transfer my monthly income using Wise to my Bangkok account and they are saying Monday 19th at the earliest! This was Friday morning at the time of writing. Like many have said it normally takes seconds, or at the very least a few hours. And yes, the amount is under 50,000 baht. Perhaps I will leave it and try again on Monday...
  6. Blind date. 20 years later we are still going strong.
  7. This very forum and numerous other media outlets have reported on many occasions that Thailand only includes those who die at the scene in their official figures. This has nothing to do with newbies.
  8. It's illegal to not wear underwear when you're out and about in Thailand. So he has every right to ask you...
  9. I hope he makes a full recovery. You cannot drop your guard when crossing the road here. You need 100% focus at all times, and a couple of additional pairs of eyes. All tourists should be warned of this before traveling.
  10. I, like many decided it would be better to be safe than sorry so I went and attempted to file a tax return. I got last year's bank statement then trotted off to what I thought was nearest my tax office only to be told I don't live in the correct area. We were then redirected to a much smaller RD located at our district office. On arrival we were seen immediately (there was nobody else in there). I was asked 'do you work here?' to which I replied 'no'. I was then asked 'did you remit large sums of money, for example one million baht plus?' to which I replied 'no'. I was then asked 'well why are you here then?' We, or should I say my wife started babbling on about 180 days and new tax laws on remitted income etc etc and all we got were bewildered looks. The lady we dealt with was adamant that I was not required to file a return nor did I need a TIN. So I left thinking that this is one office that clearly didn't get the memo, if there ever was a memo...
  11. 20,000 steps everyday. If it rains I have enough roofed off area outside to continue with my routine.
  12. Is it made from kangaroo milk?
  13. Yes I did and it's meant I've lived "rent free" for close on 15 years.
