The doctor can do nothing for you as he was not a psychiatrist. You are schizophrenic Bob. One day you are sober and being thrown out of restaurant and then you claim to be an alcoholic again. The doctor saw right through you.

Actually, all I've been in, which is most, didn't allow blocking others cars in or you'll be towed. My point is, it's not only illegal in most places, but stupid, as people blocking others in are inconsiderate and lazy. Someone might need to get into their car for an appointment or emergency and what happens when you can't find the owner and you can't push their car out of the way?

If the car can't be pushed they have dollies which they put under each wheel and move the car. Most carparks only allow double parking on once side of each aisle so if you don't like it just choose a slot on the side that doesn't have double parking. All fairly simple.

On topic to prove the hypocrisy of the Trump case. 
 

I know you don’t want to hear that.

If Eric is found liable/guilty in court of the accusations so be it. He will be just like Trump, a sexual predator.

Morning coffee? It's the middle of the night 

Still dark in my neck of the woods at 6am.

I was disturbed by a lot of rustling beside me when I was having my morning coffee a few days ago.

Side loaders are more efficient, and better, as far as I know.

Side loaders clean better....as far as I know.

 

Only problem is....

I have never seen one, either near the university, nor anywhere (around here), which can be coin-operated.

If I had seen one, I would have used it, for sure.

 

 

Are you living under a rock? In the last few years loads of laundry places have popped up with nice stainless steel front loaders and dryers. Saw two new ones last week within 100 metres of each other when I went to immigration. One of them in a PTT station. They had washers and dryers up to 28kg capacity. My medium size town has two places that I know of and I don't go looking for them.

a.  The AC with Nike shoe is machine ONE.  

 

b. The video is of vibration from machine on "super" cool.

 

c.  Also, this machine ONE has lower frequency vibration when the fan is running at medium RPM.

 

 

d.  The other video is of machine TWO.

 

 

e.  Now, both machines are located at same site.

 

 

If your problem is the AC in video one with the shoe then an earlier poster may be correct that you have a screw lose. Have you tried tightening the screws on the lid? If they are tight then remove the lid and check for rubber tape around the inside of the lid to stop it vibrating against the main case of the unit.

Ha! Thanks for pointing that headline out. You're right I missed the headline after clicking the "Breaking News" headline below. Went straight to the article body, then to The Thaiger source article, which said zippo. (That's zero 😄). Thanks for the rudimentary and unnecessary math lesson, but you're right...I correct people on that silly error all the time, so many probably learned something. 

 

It's early in the morning and I haven't had a coffee yet but it seems like a terrible math lesson to me. Where did the $550 come from? Seems he confused 600% with $600 half way through the lesson.

Not surprised with the prices of their quoted airfares 

Cheapest flight I could get to the UK last July. May have been cheaper ones with lesser known airlines with out of the way routes but beat Qatar, Emirates, BA etc..

The MRIThailand.com website quotes 14,000 for lower abdomen, slightly cheaper and locations around Thailand. 

 

Considering that is basically all they do, I would expect their testing to be of a high standard.

Does that include contrast? As the bill shows, if you require contrast it costs extra. Also I seem to recall Sheryl suggesting that if contrast is required it is best to use a hospital in case you have a bad reaction to the contrast medium.

15,000 baht for lower abdomen at a government hospital in Bangkok July last year.

Now that sounds like a plan. Thank you.

I would ask the bank about that plan first. Am pretty sure my wife was paid with a cashiers check for a property years ago in Samui. She took it to the bank there and expected to get the money. They told her cashiers checks had to be processed via head office and it would take a few days for the money to show in her account. Things may have changed by now.

Did you read the Dr respond or mines.  All one has to do is look at your bank book to see if it is current or not. Reason I make a deposit of a 1000 then get a letter to verified the total which should be last entry reason I xerox all the pages of the passport attach it to the bank letter.

This method Ive never had anyone question he looks at the dates on the copies that I have met all the requirement as you are noting and Im done in 10 minutes.

In fact the guy seems pissed at times that I have things in order cant make me jump through their hoops. This year just done ladt month he ran thrpugh everything twice then took my passport started to xerox all the pages making another set handed to me to sign I ask did I miss something said No, told him I have extra copies if he needed more. No humor I was out 12 minutes.

As I said, it depends on your immigration office. My office require proof of meeting the financial requirements for the whole year. I can't be bothered to update my passbook regularly then get a new one when it is full. My preference is to get a one year statement and update my passbook on the day I do my extension. In and out in 11 minutes.

Why would you need a 12 month statement unless you are using a monthly.

All I do for years is go to Bangkok bank the day before deposit a 1000 baht then hand the teller 100 Baht for a letter that letter just confirms the total amount. 

I also xerox all pages of the book, attached to application highlight the areas approved out the door in 10 minutes.

Immigration changed the financial requirements so you have to maintain certain levels in the bank for the whole year. At about the same time my bank would only go back about four weeks when I updated my book so unless I update it every month I end up with a consolidated entry which does not prove I maintained the required balance for the whole period. If your immigration office insists on proving you met the financial requirements for the whole year you either have to regularly update your passbook to avoid consolidated entries or get bank statements to cover the year.

Thank you for the helpful replies. The last time at CW I had used a foreign currency savings account with a balance of over 800K equivalent from another bank, which had a passbook, and it was also updated the day that the extension was applied for, but they still asked for a 12 month statement anyway, which I did have, so it wasn't a problem. 
 

Perhaps with Bangkok Bank accounts they know it could take up to a week to obtain a 12 month statement so they don't ask for it. Don't know. 

I just use photocopies of an updated passbook with a transaction on the day of application to cover the few days between the last entry on the one year statement and the day I apply for the extension.
