  1. You wouldn't drink and drive in Canada, so don't drink and drive in Thailand, or anywhere -Taxis and win moto taxi are dirt cheap and everywhere -you don't want the hassle of thai police at dark thirty and drunk -court cases are expensive as are lawyers, see point one -time in the lock up, this alone should alarm you
  2. Like this temp? Jan 12 Edmonton doing the school run, airport temp was -45.9C I lived with the high temps in Thailand and middle east and honestly I prefer the cold. Not the - 40s, but just winter in general Also the extreme lows like this generally only last a couple of days as opposed to Thailand's weeks or months of 37c or higher
  3. January 6 Insurrection BLM protest There, fixed that for you How any sane person can view the thousands of hours of January 6 and say it was just folks sightseeing is absolutely ludacris
  4. My housekeeper kept all my son's old schoolbooks with the "poor people can use them" When moving house there were about 5 grades of old school books and worksheets, bagged them up and threw them out.
  5. I've used Wise for smaller transfers, something like this I like the security of dealing with real banks. If a mistake is made with some details and it can't be sent it will come back to your sending account automatically. ( ask me how I know this) Having done this from CIBC, and HSBC to Thailand. You'll need your SWIFT ID for your Bangkok Bank account, google it. You'll need your IBAN number, (International Bank Account Number), also from Bangkok Bank, should be on your e-statement Go to your Canadian Bank with these details, don't know about the free amount transfers offered, I'd be skeptical, nothing is 'free' Bank will send in CDN funds and BB will deposit into your account in Thai Baht I would send it all in one go, cheaper than multiple transfers, And make sure you note on the transfer's purpose that it is to be used for a condo purchase, this will help get your FET from Bangkok Bank Buy condo Just FWIW when I sold my condo in Jomtien pre covid sending Bank didn't care about the FET, just the tax paid on the selling amount, supplied by the land office
  6. https://solectrac.com/about/ This is one, can't find a price but it not going to be cheap This Farmall/Case looks more like a real working tractor but again no price https://www.caseih.com/en-us/unitedstates/products/tractors/farmall-series/farmall-electric-tractor#0
  7. Thai driving philosophy If you don't look you won't see If you don't see, there is nothing there
  8. Most of their radar is focused on the frontlines, It's a VERY big country This kind of plane is almost transparent to radar, very little metal, fabric covered wings etc Precedent On May 28, 1987, West German Private Pilot Mathias Rust managed to make international headlines by flying his Reims Cessna 172P from Helsinki Finland to a spectacular landing in Moscow's Red Square. His flight was both an amazing achievement, and an immense humiliation to the Soviet War Machine.
  9. Apparently called a Foxbat, Ukraine designed and built, bit smaller than a cessna. Low slow and not very visible on radar, 5 hours flight to that drone factory
  10. Poor click bait title. Province of BC not Canada British Columbia is trying the decriminalization and doing it poorly, as is Oregon. Lots of places look to Portugal's model which does work and requires a lot of support systems from the Heath care providers. Portugal doesn't just hand out the drugs to users, they have to be registered into a harm reduction program, get counseling, prove they are trying to reduce their use. And it seems to be working BC and Oregon just decimalized hard drugs with no support system and the drug users love it of course, but there is no systemic support for them and it's a failure Half azzed measures get half azzed results.
  11. For a country without a navy they are kicking buttt sinking ships
  12. Interesting to see the flight and impact Good targeting, keep it up
  13. Looks like refineries are back on the menu
  14. Might be the Gravy Seals, or even Meal Team Six, or YA'AL-Qaida
  15. Why don't you wait until the bung Fai celebration comes along, after Songkran in Issan Take your class to the rocket launches and talk to some of the competitors on how they build there rockets
  16. I think this is the same refinery from different angles. The last week has seen a massive amount of damage to their refining capacity Real war time targets, not apartment blocks in Odessa
  17. Another one, right in the cracking tower
  18. Another day another burning refinery. Long range drones getting the job done one report I've read is that they are targeting the cracking towers in all the refineries, just another thing they don't have the ability to manufacture
