So what's the first option then? There are different ways of wording things you know.

Who are they mourning?

I've been renewing my marriage extension at CM for fifteen years now and for as long as I can remember I have always got a bank letter and a statement. I just go to my bank and I get both. I couldn't tell you if a statement is required or not but I always take everything I think I need plus some things I'm not sure about just in case... To me it makes way more sense to plan for every eventuality rather than get caught out and have to make a second trip. Put it this way, they have never handed me back my bank statement and told me it's not required.

It doesn't need to be reported. It's just par for the course here. Actually I'm blaming the vehicle because a bad workman always blames his tools...

What I'm confused about is why anyone would place an order and then carry on looking to see if you could find the item cheaper elsewhere. Wouldn't it make more sense to check around first and when you're 100% sure you've found the cheapest, then you place the order?

I'm guessing you've never bought groceries online here? Because if you had you would know that everything you purchase is individually wrapped in "copious amounts" of bubble wrap. So, if you had ordered 20 items it would probably take nearer 10 minutes to unpack and check everything.

This is exactly what should happen and made public to deter others. But in reality, he will just bribe his way out of trouble like they all do and then return to his life like nothing ever happened.

He fled the scene in an act of pure cowardice. What more evidence do you need??? The fact that he ran away from such a horrific accident should be enough to jail him for at least 10 years. In the real world, part of being a coach or bus driver is the responsibility and safety of your passengers. This being Thailand all they care about is getting paid at the end of the month.

The pound actually bottomed out at around 34 during the first year or so of Brexit. In those days most British expats would have been chuffed to bits to get 43.

But isn't that just the Thai way with everything? Not admitting fault, blaming something or someone else for their own failings? I must be honest, I rarely have an issue with the logistics companies used by Lazada. However, I did recently have a parcel that was quoted as being "In line haul" for about 24 hours. I'm presuming that it got lost in transit somewhere and was sent to the wrong location. Or the vehicle it was traveling in broke down or crashed... But they are never going to admit that the fault lies with them.

The problem with stinky beans is the smell that emanates from someone who has consumed them can happen hours after they've been eaten. It's like sleeping with someone who has been eating numerous cloves of raw garlic.

The smell in our bedroom after she has been eating bitter (stinky) beans.

Yes, but only if you are a complete moron who shouldn't be in charge of anything more complicated than a shopping trolley. Literally anyone who was is reasonably competent driver would have avoided this accident. But the problem runs much deeper than that because anyone crossing a road has an obligation for their own safety. You should be focused on what is going on around you at all times. You can never assume that motorists will see you and stop, even, or perhaps more importantly at zebra crossings.

Yes, because the majority of Thailand's own working population don't financially contribute directly to what you have mentioned above. They need to go after their own people first.

I've now sorted the problem. HBO had decided to take issue with me for being logged into too many devices. Even though it's over a year ago I last logged into a new device.

For the record, I'm based in Chiang Mai.

This evening I found I was logged out on the app on my TV but not on mobile devices. I currently can't login on the TV with either a QR code or an activation code. The latter requires you to visit a HBO website and all I'm getting is this...

I trying to mentally picture the Thai police force donning riot gear and trying to protect us foreigners from a raging mob if similar events were to happen here... Nope, it's just not happening!

If your bank book won't update in a machine there maybe a problem with the magnetic strip. Although I don't use the same bank as you, I know from experience that if you report the problem in local branch they should be able to reset it. Also, branches of banks that are not in supermarkets or shopping malls normally open at 8:30am.

These people are just incapable of excepting responsibility. They always have to blame someone or something else for all their own failings. 2 year olds have to be supervised 100% of the time. He clearly didn't do that and should be man enough to pay the price.

Basically he copied what most of the thais have been doing for years with no repercussions. He took a shortcut across the central reservation.

Indeed, it's interesting that there are people out there that actually assume that we are all the same. In my opinion there are few things better than savoring a good glass of wine or a quality beer.

Have you never heard of drinking in moderation? I will let you into a little secret. Not everyone who drinks alcohol is an alcoholic.

But not locals?

For a minute I thought the OP was saying England should be thrown out because we are allegedly boring cheats and the rest of Europe hates us. But I think they don't understand that the UK are still part of Europe geographically, if not politically.
