  1. Go try to buy aspirin in a Thai pharmacy all they have is the 80mg "heart medicine" at stupid prices and hidden away behind the counter like it is a class A narcotic !
  2. Nine and three quarters.
  3. I'll be watching this early night very shortly.
  4. I'm still confused what is the advantage of "live tv" over "streamed on demand" I can only see advantages to streamed on demand ie: you can watch what you want when you want not when some one else decides as with "live tv"
  5. More bloody palm trees...why oh why do they hate the huge shade trees that grow on the shoreline naturally ? I have an idea the palm trees provide next to no shade so the deck chair and umbrella vendors have a "captive" market ( when/if the tourists ever return) the vendors of course have to pay for the concession to use the beach.
  6. I think Thai PBS has some English subtitles on some programs probably other channels with subtitles too. There is also often another soundtrack with original audio so if the program was in English it will be an English sound track and Japanese would be Japanese etc don't think they translate the news though...I'll have a look through the channels later this evening.
  7. If you haven't seen it yet "Black Mirror" series might be interesting too. https://www.thetvdb.com/series/black-mirror
  8. Just had a quick look at the PDF mentioned above and its also 200 baht fine for not having a bell/hooter on your car/motorcycle/ pedal cycle or horse drawn chariot ! ????
  9. Strange there is no - very little media interest in anything other than vaccines and how many have been "double jabbed"
  10. Best just to find a place that charges the proper rate directly from the PEA or MEA electricity authorities there is no shortage of choice especially now with the Covidiocy.
  11. It means you get a nice breeze through the room so you don't have to turn the air con on.
  12. My old 2 smoker (Nessie ) finally running ok (not 100%) after a total engine rebuild probably could do with a new carburettor I did try a cheapo china copy and it runs but there is no needle height adjustment to get the mixture just right..so its running on the old one for now..maybe forever more.
  13. You can(could) buy from 11am to 2pm and then again 5pm to 12.00 midnight ( now last orders at 8pm due to Covidiocy)
  14. In the "olden days" they would also have to get up and change the video CD to disk number 2 ????????????
  15. T-Sports was recently added to the Digital terrestrial TV package ( free tv via an antenna )....maybe since the Olympics started ? I only accidentality found it a few days ago.
