    And they all appear large size! I like something a bit smaller.

    Nope, insurer didn't pay or defend him in court. His parents paid the compensation ordered by the court, his uncle was his lawyer. I didn't ask the court for compensation, I didn't have a lawyer. Public prosecutor Vs my attacker. I was just a witness/victim.

    Nope, the driver that hit and run me had 1st class insurance. Directly he admitted it was deliberate his insurance company said we only cover accidents, you will need to claim compensation through the courts. But they did pay for my m/c repairs as an act of goodwill.

    Would point out insurance doesn't have to pay for injury caused by unlawful acts.

    The old couples door was foreground right. The young couples door was background right. The old people appeared to have been planting beside the young couples house. The beating happens outside the young couples front door.

    True data SIM, 2200bht, 20mbs 100gb/ month. Doesn't look slow or expensive to me. https://s.lazada.co.th/s.Fsq1r

    Kamala again obviously, the woke always double down. My second choice would be Megan Merkel.

    Read the PADI instructors manual again.

    I don't think the Koran specifies the age or attractiveness of the virgins. They might all be large and old and averse to sex ....... but if you want virgins, OK.

    What diving course? PADI have no such rules and imposing 'extra' rules will get you struck off. BSAC maybe, but seem to have no schools on Koh Tao.

    Too expensive for me, and the one top left looks a bit manly.

    Fritz has been retired 20 years, he's way out of date with security. Still gives his credit/debit card numbers to online stores is the give away.
  14. BritManToo
    Only if they're holding my phone.

    I'm fairly certain my fingerprint is 100% secure, and that's the only information that allows access to my banking apps (and only on my phone). I don't enter debit card details anywhere, that's old tech, move with the times.

    Not even sure malware for android phones even exists.

    Not sure I'd want to eat shellfish from a canal.

    I am one of those foreigners!

    I was in China in 2017, everything seemed very peaceful and relaxed. I walked all over the place on my own, nobody minded. Maybe your book was set in the past.

    Tell me what you think the security issue could be? My bank account app is locked to my fingerprint, anything I buy is paid for by scan on delivery, I see no possible problem.

    And it was the old guy starting trouble at the young peeps front door. Which was probably why the olds got charged, in Asia they are very protective of residents on/near their property. Elderly foreigner starts trouble and gets an excessive beating. Best to avoid all confrontation.

    Tried to take my phone while I was looking at Google maps walking around the town. My grip was stronger then the snatcher riding pillion though, he almost fell off. Warned never to carry anything valuable in the m/c basket (Siam Reap). Never walk on the sidewalk nearest the road (Phnom Penh).

    Wifi IS everywhere, unless you're out trekking in the jungle very little need for phone data. Coffee shops, bars, restaurants, hotels, condos ............. Ask for password in every venue once, when having a coffee or beer, use it forever more. Usually faster than the phone data as well. Same in Cambodia, Vietnam, Philippines. Enjoy your trip!

    Not much in the way of property tax, insurance or maintenance costs on a rented home in Thailand. Rents in Chiang Mai haven't risen in the past 15 years either. My village in the burbs (12Km from moat), 3 bed house rented for 10kbht/month when it was built 12 years back, now they rent for 8kbht/month.
