Duh, New York didn't have a Mardi Gras parade, think that may have had something to do with the difference   

New Orleans had the mardi gras.

I expect this is why the death rate is so high.

The post is highlighting New Orleans death rate.

. They also want a print out of the email received from the Embassy.

Can't see anything wrong here.

It's quite easy to type a letter and print it off.

They're just making sure it's original and not fraudulent.

I have tourist visa

I have bought and sold many cars and bikes on a tourist visa over the years

Thanks for this information.

I have been reading information that's not correct like

1. 40,000 baht fine for not wearing a mask when walking along Jomtien Beach

2. Must wear a mask while riding a bike

And so.

Please keep us up to date with rules and regulations that must be followed.

Too bad they cant enforce this (strange) safety behavior to wearing helmets while riding motorbikes.

 

i like your thinking; wear a mask that the WHO recognises does very little, if anything, to prevent infection, or wear a helmet that will potentially save your life. difficult one...

Yeah I probably worded it wrong, that and my fat fingers on this small telephone. 

99% of the members would have got the gist. 

It's always a good idea to think outside the box for those 1 percenters out there.

The officer told me I have to use a mask

The world is in short supply 

Masks should only be worn if you're sick

The police should be more focused on road deaths, lack of wearing helmets

Why are Thais so obsessed with these masks?

It just doesn't make sense.....riding motorbikes without helmets / wearing masks when not sick.

Whats going on?

This is a very selfish behavior.

Mask should only be worn if you're sick

These masks are in short supply

Too bad they cant enforce this (strange) safety behavior to wearing helmets while riding motorbikes.

I did my renewal at Jomtien a few months ago with my Bangkok Bank dollar account.  Smooth as silk.  Didn't even have to show them the baht account book.  You just need updated bankbook and a letter from the bank (100 baht).

Wow, things have changed.

Only 5 or so years ago jomtien wouldn't except my USD account or fixed interest account.

Hopefully can subscribe to HBO separately without the internet.  Had 3BB Fiber before and my experience with them was terrible.   Speeds never reached what was advertised and their customer service and call center are seemed clueless when dealing with them. 

You'll find all the service providers are the same

Dear one-month tenants of my condo,

Leave the short term tenants for the hotels.

The money sounds good but it comes with too many issues.

6 or 12 month contracts only.

You realise you're not obligated to buy one of those cheap helmets. I have a few friends who went online and ordered some expensive helmets from the US.  Other's have bought durable/high end helmets at shops here in Thailand not the 200 baht cheap ones in Tesco or BigC

Helmets are not the issue.

No, you did not answer my question at all.

 

The question you attempted to answer (but failed miserably) was post #31 not post #50 so it appears to be you that is struggling with English.

English no problem for me.
