  1. 50kbht would be a mid range bike. Cheap costs 15kbht, expensive 100kbht.
  2. Never met one of these 'good wives', must be the quality of the foreigners I mix with.
  3. The answer is to drive in the UK on your Thai license and avoid all traffic fines as they don't bother to fine overseas visitors for minor traffic offences.
  4. Lucky you didn't ask if the 3 of you would be sharing the same bed!
  5. Or you could buy one ready made for 56Kbht https://www.lazada.co.th/products/nmc-48v-246ah-125742kw-smart-bms-i3540994257-s13213589046.html OK, so it's Lithium, but it's also half the price. 16kwhr for 66Kbht https://www.lazada.co.th/products/48v-300ah-smart-bms-150300a-1585kw-i2554477759-s9087152255.html
  6. When I left Israel a few years back they kept my suitcase for a longer inspection and sent it on a flight the next day. But I guess anyone can make a mistake. Wondering what a 'bullet magazine' is, would have imagined it was just an essentially harmless box shape bit of metal. Whatever the offense, 18 months seems a bit harsh considering you can kill a policeman and get away with no sentence at all. (both Red Bull and that drunk Thai lady)
  7. And yet, frozen chips are up from 99bht to 165bht in Makro. Which would make chip inflation 65% in Thailand. (Oddly enough, potato prices remain unchanged)
  8. So I need to move countries because the west has gone mad? Actually I have, but chose Thailand over Afghanistan. (apart from the vote, essentially the same rules as Afghanistan) Presumably, by the same reasoning, you should return to the UK.
  9. I don't believe the quality of education for the British masses has change significantly in the past 100 years. Excepting in the replacing of religion by wokeness (which is effectively the new religion).
  10. I would disagree, the reason Christianity is dying is because its been watered down to nothing. By including everyone, they become interesting to no-one. Islam hasn't changed, so still attracts the masses. Another example of "go woke, go broke"
  11. Odd as I was under the impression that Mr. Hitler thought the same of black people and Jewish people.
  12. I didn't know the Queen had 'ladies in waiting' with dreadlocks! Looking good for 83 years old though.
  13. It's a Thai racial slur and always has a negative intention. You may not understand the negative implication, but it's there. The missing of of the personal title (Kon, Pee, Lung, Khun, etc) before it is the giveaway. Humans are always given a title, animals and things are not. Back to the OP, As you're not a racist Thai, why do you feel the need to insert that word in your sentences? If you want to talk about foreigners, call them foreigners.
  14. I think I know better. Big pharma only wants to make money. The professionals are only in it for the money. Same with climate change.
  15. She says, no witness. More likely a lie to get her 'brother' off.
  16. I'm already a right nasty idiot ......... I'm hoping smoking MJ will cure me.
  17. I own the mobile phones and tablets in the household. Any naughtiness and I don't let the kids borrow them. Never any problems for me, never any need to shout, I just say give me my phone/tablet back. The misses shouts at them all the time.
  18. Agree, Systral from most pharmacies.
  19. As a Brit, I've never bothered about straight looking teeth. It's an American obsession.
  20. Breadfruit Mealybug (Icerya aegyptiaca) https://goodstreecare.com/its-time-to-tip-the-scales-on-scale-insects/
  21. Voting is pointless as all the candidates, from all the parties, are from the people that own everything. As examples, Tony Blair is a millionaire, Tony Benn is a lord.
  22. It's hard to talk about equality when a very small group of people have inherited vast tracts of land through accident of birth. Add to that the 'charitable organisations' and the Church that have permanently removed large areas of land from the people, and the general public are well and truly shafted. I see no way forward without revolution
  23. My Thai cycling pal is a retired English teacher, he can't speak a word of English, I have to speak Thai. I would suggest the way forward would be to employ qualified teachers that can speak English. Not 1. Unqualified English speaking foreigners and not 2. Thai teachers that can't speak English.
  24. The great man Karl Marx believed women were property, married a Baroness and lived off her income, then had children with both her and her maid. Nothing woke about Karl!
