  1. I haven't been to Pattaya in a long while, but stayed there last weekend. And there's something I need to ask. There are a few chain restaurants at beach facing end of Royal Garden Plaza... and when looking at their menu prices, they are exactly 2x the price of identical restaurant prices in Bangkok. Quality of food was good, service actually better than Bangkok so I am not complaining. But... Is that only this particular mall that doubled prices or is this Pattaya standard?
  2. Not necessarily about money. They could have simply checked him before he reached immigration point to give heftier fines. Sadao border crossing with Malaysia used to do that back in the day. They put up a police checkpoint just before border crossing and check everyone's documents. Anyone found on overstay would be arrested there. Maybe that idea is back.
  3. They are HE machines and require detergent for HE machines, else they bubble too much and leave residue behind. My first such machine was over 15 years ago and I ruined it by using wrong detergent. It was forced on washing machine manufacturers by the EU directive, if I remember correctly. Most new front-loaders are HE models now.
  4. Did not see this one coming...
  5. Father pardoned, daughter PM, uncle back to building condos...
  6. In that case I could only suspect that the type of boot UEFI/Legacy might be an issue and changing to the other one might be worth to try...
  7. In BIOS, change boot type from Windows UEFI to "other OS".
  8. Possibly bribe to allow truck to be heavier than legally allowed could be considered driver's fault. Below is screenshot of Thai discussion on it... This is Thai discussion over it...
  9. That's exactly why they should bring him... tied up... and turn away.
  10. And he's still driving other 13 year old girls around, it seems...
  11. Still a big enough market for these loud birds flying past my home at least 10x every day...
  12. When I was sitting in Phyathai 1 hospital, waiting for doctor, there was a poster in front of me about some steam treatment that deals with this... looked like a tiny metal pipe inserted that delivered steam to the muscle/prostate, which then made it smaller and stopped the problem. At least that's what the poster promised. That's quite a lot less invasive than cutting the thing out. Why not check it out?
  13. In our condo they called the cops to remove illegal airbnb tenants who weren't reported to juristic office for obvious reasons, but were making noise whole night and their neighbours complained. They were booked for trespassing and after police took them away, I haven't seen them again. So there must be a way to use trespassing laws.
  14. There's a word gone missing. Should be "Get married, they said. You will be happy for the rest of your single life!"
  15. And all of that achieved nothing. Shin family still running the country...
  16. So if he was a Grab/Bolt driver, it would have been OK to assault him?
  17. Sorry man, but... no. You could also be a driver for a government official without a driver's license if nobody checks whether you have one. But that doesn't mean you are not required to have one to drive. He flew under the radar "for years" in doing illegal jobs. Many people do. However that doesn't make it legal. But do ask him to go ahead and report it. And please do let us know how that goes. Big Joke needs new cases. Hasn't been in the news for a while...
  18. Telling a Thai that he's wrong is akin to a death wish...
  19. I bet 25 Satang they are not going to reach that target.
  20. Indeed. If he did work illegally, going to police to complain about it would not be a wise thing to do. There aren't many option in that case, as pretty much all would backfire.
  21. So nearly there. Just need to swim last 100m or so...
  22. Seems drugs legalization is having far reaching effects...
