Liptons tea has always been expensive garbage. Buy Typhoo one cup tea bags on Lazada, 150bht for 100 bags.

You shouldn't be giving your children junk food snacks. The apple is better for them. All these sob stories seem to involve single moms. How many families with 2 working adults are going hungry? The problem is not expensive food. The problem is single moms!

Wear more clothes, sleep in a sleeping bag. As long as you keep the house above freezing, no point in wasting more money. When I was a lad there was always ice on the inside of the windows in winter. People have just got soft and spoiled.

Is it cheaper than a short-time room?

How do we know there weren't bullet holes, a noose around his neck or stab wounds? Someone should design a T-shirt "Believe Thai Police".

I know a few pensioners back in the UK, no income beyond state pension. They're doing OK, so I can't see how 'professionals' aren't coping. Probably poor money management skills. Back to the OP, "Case study: Victoria Breakfasts are a luxury, weekday lunches largely a thing of the past. There are no food treats any more, no desserts or cake. For Victoria, a single mother on a low income, this denial of her own food needs has one purpose: to ensure her two primary school age children never go hungry." Not much sympathy, she chose to be a single mother with 2 kids. The UK is full of desperate single guys that would like some company.

My relatives nearly all died in their early 60s. I've already outlived almost everyone I knew at age 66. Surprised myself, was expecting to be dead by now.

Sounds unlikely.

Agree, Yesterday I made shredded chicken and pasta soup, enough for 10 servings, about 100bht (same ingredients as yours -spinach +pasta). I'm betting all those people that can't afford meals only buy prepackaged, and can't cook.

I just tighten them up until the wrench no longer moves easily.

Just imagine if they changed the law, then went to visit all registered foreigners for a wee test.

Nothing like a bit of battery spot welding with your socket wrench!

Carbon Monoxide poisoning is very easy to spot. Blue lips and fingernails.

Hard to see how a dive instructor can't be fit and healthy. You're lugging air tanks and weight belts around all the time. Then there's lots of swimming, assisting the tourists on and off the boats, dragging the tourists that ran out of steam along in the water etc.

Cheaper to buy chocolate from Lazada, huge choice. English Cadbury's from Food Variety 150bht/200gm (bars) Indonesian Cadbury's from other sellers 200bht/400gm (jars) Raw chocolate (Fart Nibble) 85bht/150gm Bens 80% Cacao 120bht/200gm

1st Was in one of the boxing ring bars (right on the street) earlier this week. Bar girl squeezing against me notices I have some weed in my bag. 'Let's smoke it now, she said' I replied, 'I've no papers' so 30 seconds later, papers, ashtrays and a lighter appear on the table. Didn't think it was allowed, but she claims nobody cared and soon the whole bar (mostly Brits) were rolling and smoking. First time this has happened to me in a Thai bar! 2nd Was out cycling with a pal this morning, quiet rural roads 'I can smell cannabis', I said. 'I can smell it too', he replied. For the next kilometre we could both smell it. The worlds going mad! 3rd Sitting in a coffee shop with my pal (same rural road) Bunch of Thais came in wearing 'Cannabis Team MaeJo' t-shirts. Green Ts, decorated with cannabis leaf design an their company name. This is getting completely out of hand.

My daughter 24/Bachelor in Business Studies and foreign tourism, works as a logistics department assistant. 20kbht/month plus an apartment in Nakon Sawan (she has to pay the utilities).

Agree, lots of homophobes posting on threads. I have nothing against gay guys, as long as they don't expect me to buy them drinks

Lots of foreigners coming to Thailand and picking up rubbish. Is this story really that different?

I blame Trump!

I'd say it was unlikely ...... Who provided the money, you or your daughter-in-law? As for the will, I'd have the grandparents right to live on the property for life put on the deeds. Wills can be changed! Would point out my lot played the same game. Granny took out a 100k loan shark loan against the family house. I paid it off when the property was put in my woman's name. I keep the chanote.

Seems unlikely unless the kid already had undiagnosed problems.

My guy comes on the 27th, unless it's a Sunday when it's the next day.

Not worthwhile, the 312bht off peak service charge is more than my electricity usage. Don't understand how some of you guys can have solar and still pay big grid bills.

You're completely right!
