  1. the article does not say its a shared path, in fact it posted ''The trial was told that police could not "categorically" state whether the pavement was a shared cycleway.'' and '' Cambridgeshire County Council subsequently reiterated that and said it would review the location, but in his sentencing remarks Judge Sean Enright said it was a shared cycleway.'' so the judge stated it was a shared path, but against what the police and the council have stated, that must be grounds for an appeal, either the council have made it a shared path or not, signs etc should show one way or another.
  2. I am with you on that, he and the women he left his wife for, are not well liked by lots of the country, save the tax payers money, save the monarchy and abdicate to a foreign land ( a bit like his uncle did) and let William reignite the love for the monarchy that his grandmother enjoyed
  3. so your thinking that over 18years, the car will pay for it self in saved petrol. so the running costs will be wear and tear on tyres and parts, not sure about the money saved to be used buying a new car at 18 years in the future prices, but i get your point, what sort of mileage do you expect to drive in those 18 years to save the 1million? 20,000km per year
  4. no i am not saying that and my post doesn't imply that, the gym is open to all and when you took on the condo, you were fully aware of the associated costs of the gym and all the communal areas, not someone plugging in a privately owned electric draining device for personal use ( phones and tablets are a minimum drain) if the scooters were communal that would a different matter, when would personal devices become over the top, EV motor-cycles, or EV cars,etc. i refer back to my post on extensions leads to run kitchen appliances would that be taking the p**s or would that be acceptable to you, at some point the people will be seen as taking the p**s, given an inch they will want a mile. it will never affect me, but why should others pay for other peoples EV's to be charged
  5. looking at all the pros and con for an EV as opposed to an ICE machine, i think battery costs as highlighted in the BYD crash, are prohibitive, yes some come with a long warranty, and yes advances in the future will make them cheaper and extend the distances between charges, but that's in the future, not know, and in the future EV may be replaced by the next advancement, (look at cd's replaced bu mp3's) but at some time everyone buying an EV vehicle now to keep long term, will need a new battery sometime in their ownership, and that comes at a huge cost, also taking into account the charging of the vehicle, queues on motorways waiting for chargers etc, ICE is well tried and tested, and has been around for a 100 years, all these points are why i choose a new ICE car over EV, i still think nearly a year later i made the right choice, regardless of all i posted above, it may make sense for some owners to go EV, as in the op 's case, but looking at the cheapest EV that is fit for purpose would be the way to go, almost a disposable vehicle after a set number of years.
  6. hybrid i think the best value would be the MGEP, in the 700,000thb range, the zs is in the 900,000+ range, the good cat is no longer having orders placed, due to demand but again in the 900,000thb range i believe, the really cheap ev vehicles are not road legal, the volt city ev is for the 4 door 385,000 or 425,000thb, not sure is they can be registered, or if they are safe enough especially if carrying children
  7. so lets plug an extension lead in, and run the air fryer and fridge
  8. but how long is the licence valid for, less than 5 years or more than 5 years??
  9. it seems to be a difference of opinion, it seems one is from personal experience, the other ''it will'' so a guess
  10. my wife changed address in Pattaya office to a Rayong address for a car registered in chon buri, another car registered in Bangkok has a Rayong address in the book, so can be done but needs to be done in the dlt where the vehicle is registered,
  11. he is past all the police involvement, he has already appeared in magistrates court, failed to turn up at crown court
  12. you became Thai after entering Thailand on a non Thai passport, if you were already Thai on entry using a non Thai passport, you would have to obtain a 1 year extension to non Thai passport entry, until you entered on a Thai passport
  13. not sure that would be the case, if they missed the flight
  14. only way to stay in Thailand if having entered on a non Thai passport is to get a yearly extension for being Thai, 1,900thb and the required 90 day reports
  15. 45 days not 30 until end of the month, pong nam ron/ban pakkard would be my choice, unless your north or south Thailand, flying is easy
  16. i think it a stretch to compare dallas with yellowstone
  17. can you not register on gov.uk, use NI number etc, should be able to sort out coding on there
  18. as i posted if applied after expiry, it will be for 5 years + time to next birthday so a day or so short of 6 years
  19. 99% of the time, wise from Uk to Thailand takes a few minutes or less.
  20. it will expire on your birthday so 5 years + the time to next birthday, ie apply the day after your expiry date and it will be valid for almost 6 years
  21. renew after it runs out, will get 6 years that way QR code, passport, driving licence, doc cert. C of R, required, can use any office
  22. come on do a google search, here i have done the hard part just type this into google - border bounce cambodia from pattaya
  23. don't read the guardian. ok following your post i read it i won't get that 2 minutes back
  24. its either get the highest deductible insurance that covers your OA visa entry, or 2 x border bounces and 30 day extensions
