  1. She was a pretty girl and still good looking. Nat brightened up many lives by being to prepared to show a leg in front of the camera and <deleted> off my missus 55. Cut her a bit of slack or a bit of firm depending on your feeling.
  2. There is a lot of COVID about and Bangkok COVID wards are full with about 24 hour or more wait lists for a room. It doesn't always go away in 5 days. I have it and am still positive with slight symtoms after 12 days. However, the worst I had was a day with low grade fever at the beginning. Other than that is feels like a mild could. I am fully vaccinated and had a Moderna shot 3 weeks before becoming infected. I also took a course of Paxlovid which may account for the prolonged symptoms, as Paxlovid can cause a rebound effect like Joe Biden got but hopefully keeps symptoms mild. Due the hospital situation, some miitigation measures are necessary. Letting people go about their business after testing negative seems fine and anyone in close contact with someone positve should exercercise caution and wear masks in my opinion. My family got COVID before me and I moved out until they were negative and avoided uncessary contact with others but didn't isolate, as I had to buy food anyway. I didn't get it then but did get it later from another source. But right now it is largely up to individuals to decide and government has very little influence. The only cases that are reported are the ones that need hospital treatment or Thais who get a motorcyclists to take their ID card to a public health clinic to get free supplies of paracetamol, ineffective cold pills that don't contain pseudoephedrine and the official MoPH "anti viral" placebos Favipiravir and Green Chiretta herbal pills for which there is no evidence of efficacy against COVID at all but nice little earners for some and makes people happy that the governemnt gave them a placebo. People who need to earn a living and have no sick pay are obviously going about there business as soon as they feel well enough. This must include all self employed including market vendors, taxi drivers, prositutes etc.
  3. I believe that wil be the case by default. However, it has now been reported that the second reading of the bill outlaws online sales and advertising of cannabis products and paraphanalia, which was not, I think, in the first draft but I could only find a summary of that, not the full version. I am not sure, if vendors will still be able to send products to customers without online websites. It is difficult to stop businesses from having a FB page with a phone number. And it will be impossible to stop overseas retailers like Aliexpress from selling bongs and pipes into Thailand. Anyway the bottom line is that, since the reports of the second reading emphasise the banning of online selling and advertising only, it is clear that there is no wording to ban recreational use per se.
  4. Sounds like the sense of this was lost in translation as it makes no sense.
