My wife and I have set aside about 20 Rai of our land for trees. The species is mixed but mainly Yang Na, Pradu, Sactong and various Acacia varieties. The land is in central Buriram and there is no restriction on harvesting other than what you cut down must be replaced with another tree. Land values have increased more than ten fold over the last ten years or so and is currently selling for 300k/Rai but that is the price off the beaten track. In villages an towns and adjacent to main routes the sky's the limit.

Minor correction. HTMS Chonburi moored anchored at sea after accidental weapons discharge Unless, of course, there was a mooring buoy handy. Skipper is due for court martial tomorrow.

Here you go: The following is in bold print below the picture in the OP. "The Navy has relocated HTMS Chonburi out to sea, from the naval base in Chon Buri province, after a jammed artillery shell was accidentally discharged into HTMS Khirirat, which was docked nearby."

Thailand has been fabricating basic semiconductors and integrated circuits for as long as I can remember. There is no IP problem with that and if there was then it would not be shipped offshore.

Why do I find myself believing this?

This is total rubbish. AI or human. Rice will never "keep" for ten years. What was the moisture content? What colour were the tested grains?

Can someone please explain how a shell which is jammed, can be fired?

This is right but the unmentioned caveat is the length of journey between charges becomes less and less over the years. Lithium ion batteries, like all other chemistries, will fade. Keeping the batteries fully charged in high ambient temperatures they fade quicker. Trying to charge them in very low ambient temperatures will destroy them quickly.

Ah Yes. They'll be the ones with the "Made in China" sticker on the back.

Deliberately written to tick all the ministry boxes. Professor Stanley Unwin would have been proud

They seem to do that or something like it already.

You might like to make a note of the boat racing in Satuek, Buriram province. It is in the beginning of November every year with between 30 and 40 boats taking part. Categories of races depends on boat size and number of paddles/boat. Would you believe there is also an elephant swimming race? I don't have the dates to hand for this years event but I expect it's on the internet somewhere.

But if the OP is indeed fluent, then he/she will be bored out of their mind. It is a visa requirement that the student attends the course.

There that's fixed. Some people are saying that the ruling party fears Pite and his pals. I don't think fear comes into it. The ruling party and the military are way too arrogant to be bothered with fear. They know they can get whatever they want.

Not so good in a country full of termites.

Will thus mans death change anything? No. Of course it won't. Villagers will simply regard it as his bad fortune and carry on as normal.

Yes. His is looking pretty good too don't you think?

Bring back the Kettering system. Clean the points. Change the coil. Change the "condenser". Spray anti condensation stuff all over the place. Crank the engine with the starting handle. Ah. Yes. Those were the days.

ALT....CTRL....DEL.

"A driver told of how he was trapped behind the wheel of his electric car when it sped up to 90mph and would not respond to him pressing the brakes." Full story here: https://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/electric-car-motorway-driver-nathan-owen-jaguar-ipace-b1143726.html The fact that the car uses batteries is not relevant in my opinion. I think the blame lies with the computer. One thing is certain. Jaguar who have discontinued that particular model will take a big hit and maybe MG also. Nobody wants to be in a car that suddenly decides to do it's own thing.

Dunno. But I don't have to drive for 5+ hours to get to the London Steak. Pattaya lost its "charm" when the Pig 'N Whistle went.

Clayton also has daughters in that age group who occasionally put in an appearance.

London Steak has both Thai and Western food and is frequented by as many Thais as westerners. There is a choice between air conditioned or non-air conditioned seating. The menu is huge. The western menu has vegetarian as well as all the usual choices of fish, pork, chicken and, of course different steaks. All foods are cooked well and generous portions. No intrusive loud music. Waitresses do their job well and for those that like such things they all have nice legs. Wine is plentiful. The restaurateur, Clayton, goes out of his way to take care of his customers.

You've never quite made it to the London Steak then.
