  1. I'm praying that Malayasia offers a special 'Songkran Visa" to help us get away from this nonsensical rubbish holiday.
  2. I am not concerned because I have every expectation the Russian "mafia" and wealthy ellite here in Thailand will offer compassionate help to their compatriots . (likely at around 20% rate on loans and snapping up condos at bargain fire sale pricing)...after alll somebody needs to pay for those new yachts to replace the ones seized by sanction.
  3. So this caught me by surprise today at Big-C
  4. I explain this to GF almost daily. Hot day outside with sun hitting west wall, can set at 30 and will kick compressor on. Cool day or later in the evening must lower to 27 for cooling to take effect.
  5. It's puzzling because surely the Daikin techs have thermometers to gauge whether it is at proper cooling temperatures ? How could they miss that ?
  6. The problem is in a war zone all bets are off....perhaps you were ordered to shoot civilians but there may be bullets flying every which way including in your direction. Hardly a time to make rational decisions about shooting into the air.
  7. Then we know he did not die of Covid ? What are you trying to prove ?
  8. Chiang Mai: 5 Bangkok: 5 Siem Reap :5 Ubon: 5 Pattaya: 5 Sparktrader: 0
  9. So you can't process more than 1 news thread at a time ? The news has been reporting on price increases, economy, tourism, Covid status and Tangmo daily, pay attention
  10. https://www.dlt-elearning.com/Home/ForeignerIndex
  11. Ok...simple query...how much did 'your' opener add to the cost of 'your' gate ?
  12. I general, how much does an automatic (electric) system add to the cost of a gate system ?
  13. yeah...that is a very good point...not to mention GF whining for years about why we didn't get automatic gate...even more perilous...ha ha ha
  14. Great thread...also in the market for replacement gate....still deciding whether I want to go manual or electric, usually not in/out more than once a day anyway.
  15. When I first came to Thailand I taught in a school in Bang Kapi near Saphan Sung. Once you got off the airport link there were two ways to get across the highway...use the pedestrian bridge and grab a moto on the other side to school -or- grab a moto taxi on the ARL side where the driver would navigate narrow dirt paths along a network of small khlongs (one way only and someone had to stop and get off to the side if a bike was coming in the opposite direction). Only did that a couple of times when I was very late for work...harrowing
  16. Had both in screen and back/side scanners....never a problem with any but prefer the side on/off button scanner just because more ergonomic to use.
  17. The Lazada app in Malaysia and Philippines is mostly English, the fact is Lazada Thailand has the vast majority of customers whose primary language is Thai, we may think we are important enough to get everything in English but expats are but a tiny slice of the biz here.
  18. Very similar in Malaysia, the 'Chinese' brothels all look like this or are so called Karaoke lounges
  19. I would go broke just on the 350 baht SomTam...
