  1. What is so offensive about xTdSx that it is censored? Surely it's not the reversed version!
  2. I have had a <removed> meter for years, from Lazada. Our water is from a communal borehole, supposedly filtered before distribution, and reads 240+ out of the tap, and stings like hell if you get it in a cut! The same water after passing through our reverse osmosis system reads between 4 and 16, depending on time since filter replacement, normally six months or so for carbon and particulate, and salt for the resin. The r-o filter lasts two years. The <removed> is highest immediately after filter change and reduces over time, then creeps up when changes are due. There is no residual taste to the water. Bottled water bought outside generally reads 38 or more. The chart on the stick says anything under 150 is safe to drink!
  3. Factor in, the 800k may not be reduced to less than 400k during the 4th to 10th months....or thereby.
  4. Not true. My farang wife is retirement lead, and I follow. The 800k is all in her bank account, I need show nothing. The status is not equal. Her extension stamp shows (in Thai) "retirement", mine shows the same but annotated by hand "follower". Originally we were both on retirement, when we changed immigration inadvertently marked them incorrectly, which caused problems at the next renewal. They retrospectively issued new extensions, at no charge, before processing the new extensions. I imagine that in order to change over as you describe, you would need to shuffle your monies around to meet seasoning requirements for the leader. There are none for the follower.
  5. I have in the past tried to buy Tonic at that time. "Sorry, cannot, no alcohol sales allowed, khrap."
  6. Pardon my ignorance, and Googles', what's an Amart?
  7. "A sentiment shared on Facebook by the Office of the Administrative Court underlined a broader criticism, stating, "Thai education is overly focused on uniforms rather than on giving students skills for use in the future and preparing them for the demands of the global economy."" Sorry folks, that is exactly what the powers-that-be do not want to give or prepare.
  8. Yes, you are right, it did.But why should I have to?
  9. It would have been nice to tell us what the acronym stands for. I still haven't worked it out, and I can't be bothered to Google it!
  10. Agree, and there is nothing racist or wrong about calling a spade a 4king shovel!
  11. Got one too. Ignore, unless you depend on the account and it's your only bank. Otherwise, tremble!
  12. I know what it is trying to say..... but what it actually says is the opposite. Somebody needs a proof reader what speaks proper!
  13. Welcome to my (very short) ignore list. Even if you are actually already on it, in another guise.
  14. My wife had a foreign godfather 'cos she's a foreign wife; their mutual residence in Thailand is purest coincidence He was not very mobile, and hammed it up a bit to get the sympathy vote: slack-jawed vacant look, and tripping over everyones' feet,
  15. Some 3 or 4 years ago, my wifes’ godfather (now late), then in his late 80s, was taken by me to Jomtien, wheelchair, zimmer and all, and reduced the place to chaos. "Don't bring him back ever again", they said, and photos of his condition were sufficient for future visits.
  16. What a load of utter rubbish. Both op and responses. Off with all their ghoolies.
  17. How much simpler if they just executed him.
  18. "Unexpected Technical Problems" ....implies that they will fly with expected ones? then "unforeseen incident".... aren't they all?
  19. .......Mostly......😁
  20. I am surprised that no one has stated the blindingly obvious, that the last thing the powers-that-be want is a well-educated, English speaking, thinking population. If they had one, they would very quickly cease to be the powers-that be. The education system is set up exactly as it is wanted to be, and very effective at what it does.
  21. but if they won't stop at a pedestrian crossing for a pedestrian, why would they stop for a policeman?
  22. This DuckDuckGo on Redmi pad. Same on my Redmi phone. It opens ok in Brave and Chrome. I wonder what triggers it.
  23. This is a screenshot of what I get when trying to access the page in the address bar. All other links tried seem ok.
  24. And that is one of the main reasons why I am here, not there.
