How did they overcome the 50kbht electronic transaction limit on foreigner accounts? BKB, I have to go to the branch in person for more than 50k in a day.

The only foreign guy in Thailand that doesn't understand you do property sales with cash at the Landline Office!

"The young man's devastated mother Tracy King said her son was 'living his dream' by travelling the world and following his passion for scuba diving."

Sadly, I was a PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer and a BSAC Open Water Instructor. (Plus RYA powerboat level 2 license to skipper the RIBs) And I never found diving relaxing, mainly stress and effort from trying not to let people in my care die. Not to mention carrying weights and cylinders around, then towing exhausted n00bs back to the boat, etc.

How much did you pay for your 'Lilac Diesel'? It's too hot and humid and 'buggy' in Thailand to grow good weed outdoors. Then there's EVAP greenhouses, where evaporation cooling is used to lower the temperature Then there's indoor temperature and climate controlled grows which tend to be expensive. Also outdoors has big problems with bug infestations unless you're prepared to use serious pesticides. I've grown indoors (tent) and outdoors, so many aphids on the outdoor grows it was hardly worthwhile. Now I buy EVAP greenhouse grows at 5-10bht a gram which gives a pretty good bang for my buck, Mainly from 'Fis High' on LINE. They are currently selling 'Pink Diesel' at 11bht/gm. Not worth the effort of growing my own at these prices, but I did grow 'Red Diesel' indoors in my tent and it was really good.

Lots of dead divers in Koh Tao though ......... https://www.birminghamworld.uk/news/birmingham-diver-ian-jacobs-thailand-4023618 "In January 2000, Ian Jacobs from Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham UK travelled alone to Koh Tao, Thailand for a diving vacation. Within two weeks he was dead and his body was promptly cremated in Bangkok."

I said "I seem to remember" ........... do you think that never happened?

Really, I seem to remember a few cases where the body was 'accidentally' cremated, before being returned to the west.

They find what their bosses tell then to find, which in this case will be nothing suspicious, then burn the body so nobody else can find different.

Usually people with undiagnosed heart problems discover those problems on their first dive. Not to mention E38k seems a bit pricey for flying a small box of ashes back to the UK/Ireland, 25 quid should be enough for DHL. Let's face it, there's no way the Thai authorities are gonna allow a real medical examiner to view that body.

So there's a Greek guy running the British rightwing news that wants to keep immigrants out. Has the world gone mad?

Didn't go to the right school and have the right parents is the probable answer. It's not what you know that gets you the job!

An impossible 8c in MaeJo this morning.

8c in Chiang Mai this morning.

I had it too, like the flu for a weekend (Xmas), joint pain, then gone leaving a cough for 3+ weeks. No rash.

I thought he was trying to oust Starmer. Are you claiming Starmer is good for the UK people?

Most hate and disinformation is spread by governments and their security forces.

Bought a Kindle from Hong Kong via Lazada, arrived at my home by DHL 4 days later. Problem is the Thai government hates the USA but bows to China.

I have solar and batteries, the grid can go off as often as it likes.

The Spanish explorers called California the "Bay of Smoke" in 1542, so I hardly think the burning is anything new, and certainly not Trump's fault. https://www.pbssocal.org/shows/lost-la/why-did-a-1542-spanish-voyage-refer-to-san-pedro-bay-as-the-bay-of-the-smoke

People who read are never bored!

Probably best not to build in earthquake or volcanic areas of the world.

When you build your houses and roofs of wood, fire is a problem.

I have found no benefits in supplements, but they may be of some use to those with unusual/extreme eating habits, vegans, vegetarians, etc. There is no replacement for regular exercise and a comprehensive menu.

There is no neutral in light switches!
