  1. I know what you mean, but I think the US and other governments would have known exactly what was going on, yet they chose to ignore it focusing on being diplomatic. It's a bit rich of the US to voice concern now in my mind. They should have done so when the military were changing the constitution.
  2. I think it's a valid issue he has raised, albeit it doesn't answer your question. I'd say it's the reflection that can be overpowering at times from dashcams and all you can see is the reflection of the dashboard. I think it's worth raising this with the people you will buy from/get to install. If its not a concern to you, fair enough.
  3. It seems like you have been awkward by not giving pretty standard visa related information and got rejected for it. I understand there should be a red asterisk and there isn't, but surely common sense tells you to add it anyway.
  4. Anyone simpleton could have seen this was going to happen when Prayut hand picked the senate several years ago. Nobody seemed to care back then and so we are seeing the consequences of it now.
  5. How much do you use and does this change the flavour of the vegetables?
  6. I know what you mean. I will usually buy meat from Betagro as I dislike meat left in the open with just a CD to keep the flies away. They also have better quality chicken available at a price. For the vegetables, I do worry about the chemicals and pesticides that are used, but hey ho. I've contemplated ordering medical grade vegetables from Distar fresh, but I know I wouldn't get through the weekly bags they send.
  7. I spend more, but it's mostly due to the car and eating out. I felt I had to change car due to the flooded roads and for my own safety in the event of a crash (I initially had an eco car). My pickup should now be good for another 20 years+. As my cats have aged, so has the spending on them. Changing their food to Royal Canin and occasional visits to the vets means I spend about 3k per month on my cats alone. Fortunately I don't have kids as I see they would the a lot more expensive to maintain than my cats. Regarding food, I have now started buying more food from the local market to reduce costs as I was spending more than 20k per month on food before that.
  8. We get it, you don't like British food. A quarter of this thread so far is you telling us this.
  9. I was referring to their businesses. I tried googling a few names on the list a few days ago, but came up with a blank relating to the information I seek.
  10. What I see is bad classroom management. I don't condone the girl's actions, but that's what happens when there is no discipline in the classroom.
  11. I'm still waiting to see a list. I assume once one is out there McGregor Marshall, from his western location will publish it.
  12. Power misleading ???????????? You only read what you want to see. You seem to omit the line after the 90% and that fact the author discusses how the doctors are not consistent. Regarding no evidence of overcounting, I never said there was. My response was related to people dying with or by covid.
  13. ''The U.K. records any death that occurs within 28 days of a positive PCR test for SARS-CoV-2 as a COVID-19 death.'' ''Similarly, in the U.S., CDC dataTrusted Source showed that COVID-19 was the sole cause of only about 5% of listed COVID-19 deaths.'' https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/how-are-covid-19-deaths-counted-and-what-does-this-mean#Excess-deaths
  14. I run windows 10 on 4gb ddr3 memory with a i3 6th gen processor. It only panics if I open photoshop. In the past I had problems with Microsoft Office click to run creating the 100% disk, not cpu, but changing from a hdd to ssd solved that. I've never used Edge, but I wonder if it has 'extensions' like Chrome. If so, you should be able to disable them from the browser settings which could help.
  15. Thanks for the info. I'll be sure to check it out when I head south to Hala Bala.
  16. Can I label these subvariants as common colds yet without receiving a backlash from others about their severity?
  17. I've already had it once so I'm also more proactive in protecting myself from bites. When I think I will be exposed, I wear mosquito proof socks by craghoppers from the UK. I have mosquito proof tops that they cannot bite through the weave, I take my own mosquito racquets with stands to outdoor restaurants, and naturally I use mosquito repellent. I don't really know of much more that I can do.
  18. I make Yorkshire puddings every week. The in laws even love them. Apart from that I usually make my own beefburgers, chorizo and beef penne, along with my sweet tooth needs of bakewell tarts and custard creams. I think after this thread I will give your pie a go. I used to make a lot of mash potato, so that's already half the job done. Rather than boil them in a pan though, I put them in the microwave for about 12mins. If I am having it with fish I will add lime juice to it
  19. Money talks. Hopefully it will be back to normal in a few years. Had some of the best times of my life as a tourist there. I particularly enjoyed the coffee shops, beer and 'tulips'
  20. I expect the calls for blood donations will be coming soon. I think I heard through Richard Barrow that us Brits can now donate blood in Thailand too, so I'll be waiting for the announcements to finally donate my rh A- blood.
  21. I'd normally think this could be a factor, but from the picture in the dark you can easily see through her windscreen. Looking through the windscreen, you can even see through the passenger side windows.
  22. Would you prefer the stalls to no longer be there? I generally avoid the areas in Nakhon Pathom like that because it's difficult to park (between Tesa Road and 25 Makara). Interestingly I saw this comparison yesterday in that area. It looks like the klong itself was thriving with life. Bring back the old way if you ask me which would help clear the pavements.

    Snake ID

    Golden tree snake, yes. The shape of the head is rather distinct.
  24. Without seeing the prices of a beer I can't possibly say. No dress code would be better too.
  25. That should just about make a Bangkok-Pattaya round trip in the Ford Raptor. Sorry got here from the newsletter. Didn't realise it was in the motorcycle thread.
