Don't believe anything until 'The Yong ster' has spoken. (He is usually a couple of weeks behind though......)

Yes you can, but my experience in Pattaya at least has been hit and miss with availability and prices range from around 60 to nearly 200 THB in some cases. What I found best is ordering from Lazada/shopee. I ordered 20 nasal/throat test kits on the 2nd Jan, were here by midday on the 4th. With post charges worked out around 65 baht a kit.

I know plenty of guys coming a cropper due to poor roads and driving in Isaan.

Thanks, I see this on shopee

What they could do is have a 'SHA restaurant' downstairs serving beer, when you get infected just pop up the stair for a couple of weeks. With 8000 rooms to fill, not sure if home isolation is a go in Pattaya now.

After too many close escapes with the fingers (drilling and cutting) I think its time to invest in a work bench with some form of securing mechanism. Space in the store is limited, so rather than a permanent fixture, any recommendations on folding solutions?

Fridays news? Miraculously 847 on Saturday.......... ????

Something like this i guess if you live in the back of beyond.

Pay mine at the Post office

Thats why I ordered from Lazada, could see that they had stock. From ordering to delivery was only 2 days.

They work out around 65 baht each on Lazada, many ways to pay, have you considered cash on delivery? Other than that, I understand they can cost up to 150 in some pharmacies, heard 7-11 and Mr DIY may stock also (subject to availability) I'd go cash on delivery with Lazda/shopee

So the isolation at home is now out the window?

and nothing else

Must depend on the kit then, my kids school swab both, the kits I have at home allow both.

Pardon my ignorance, but I thought the whole idea was to swab the nose and mouth at the same time? A kind of capture all? I certainly dont think ATK kits should be taken with a grain of salt, I know numerous people who displayed symptoms and used them to test, the result was positive and now they are self isolating. I'm recovered now, but that was the route I took. This kits allow people to act responibly without the prospect of being hauled off to the Gulag if they tell someone.

Last year I put a SSD into a 12 year old lap top that was ready for the bin, works wonderful now!

Thats the Thais most likely got infected somehow else

I'm guessing you are a financially secure senior citizen? Edit, you are winding us up ????

London had its peak just before Christmas I was reading, both deaths and hospitalizations continue to fall. Its in a sub story on this page https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10366875/Leading-Oxford-vaccine-expert-warns-giving-regular-boosters-not-sustainable.html There is also another interesting read on that page; 'Are we on the brink of OVER-vaccinating in the fight against Covid?'

Giving Covid booster jabs to people every six months is not “sustainable” and a fourth dose should not be rolled until there is more evidence, the head of the UK’s vaccine body has said. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/fourth-covid-booster-jab-omicron-b1986348.html

I would give it a miss too, was never any good at connect 4, always lost my money.

Still a gamble to put your hand up with the last 5 words......'or at facilities designated by the state.'

You can turn them off.

My history was all over the place on the web before new year. Logged in one day and saw a picture of some cupboard handles ordered from China and a description of an android box I bought.
