    Open old lockbox

    True this. Works every time.
  2. 20 baht/kilo seems very expensive for a bulk export.
  3. Is it possible to de-register a sim? I must have had at least ten over my years here, only three still extant.
  4. I have Thai acquaintance who was in charge of Supply Chain for a well known and respected Thai fruit juice company. The company claims "sugar free" or "no added sugar" on its packaging. She was buying in 20 tonnes of sugar per month!
  5. The perp looks more like 12 than 21, if that's him with the blurry face. Can anyone that undernourished be a serving soldier?
  6. It is worth a day trip to Taichileck (Mae Sai border). There is a booze shop there, excellent selection, much cheaper than here, for 25baht per bottle they will get it across the border for you, .
  7. At a small restaurant at Vinmanmek Palace years ago, I tried to order laab moo, which was on the menu. All I got was a blank look. I tried every tone and inflexion......nothing. Can anyone tell me any Thai word with which "laab" in any tone can be confused, off a menu?
  8. To me, the headline implies that Thai mercenaries exist.......and all are fighting for Hamas..........?
  9. In Pattaya, try this: https://maps.app.goo.gl/SWP1H8KXg34FJcR16 I had root treatment and post crown, excellent and fair price.
  10. Sattahip songthiews, blue/white colour, pass up and down Sukhumwit regularly through Na Jomtien and Bangsaray. I think they start in Naklua, so you can pick one up anywhere South of that. Get off before the Shell station opposite the new Ambassador flyover, it's a long walk to Drifters, etc. You could get a motocy taxi near Ambassador.
  11. Plus institutionalised racism and xenophobia, "hazing" and "fagging", all considered normal in such schools. Just like here. Very sad. RIP.
  12. I can recommend these:- https://maps.google.com/?cid=11312938875396094416&entry=gps for mechanical, https://goo.gl/maps/sA2Hkj93j9oi4xFMA for paint/bodywork.
  13. Not of death, just the process. I have an exit strategy. Do you?
  14. Looks like a cardboard box with barcode to me! But, it is a poor resolution picture.
  15. I call bs on all this ev nonsense. No infrastructure, no generation capacity, vehicles unreliable fire hazards, take forever to charge to not go very far, weigh far more than ice cars hence less efficient, poor resale value. When other systems mature (hydrogen, fusion, fuel cells, ......????, come along, evs will go the way of the dodo, except for public transport fueled by under-vehicle power transmission (trams).
  16. Interestingly, on the rare occasions when my Thai friends want, or need, to RTFM of anything at all complex, they do so in English if available. The Thai language version leaves them utterly perplexed! That said, English transliterations of other language manuals can be tiresome, amusing, or incomprehensible. Many years ago I had a piece of equipment from a top-of-the-line Japanese manufacturer. "When the globe is exhausted through elongated usage........." change the light bulb. It would be nice if Thai printers would ask a friendly neighbourhood Brit to proof read their output before committing to press!
  17. There is and has been for at least 10 years, a large wind generator on the breakwater at Ban Amphur beach. I have never seen it move. A complete waste of someones' money.
