I didnt pay her money and decided to cut contact and told her so.....and that was it. She did not call anymore nor write me an email, after all we went through.....end of story.

Despite the short term pain, you must know that you're better off in the long run.

we don't have any plans in regards to where we'll go or the mode of transport we'll be using. We definitely won't be driving. We'll either be using buses, trains, (ferries if and where necessary), and maybe flying.

when not flying, I'd recommend taking the train. It's safe, economical, and gives you a chance to see a different part of the country.

If you don't book a first class car, go for a second class sleeper in an air conditioned car.

Condolences to his family and friends.

^ Good advice.

Also, if your shoulder, arm and hand are still twice their normal size in a couple of days, you might want to consider getting a second opinion on whether or not you have any fractured or broken bones.

have you lost weight due to a better diet intake compared to what you used to eat back home. do you eat far more vegetables and fruit now, a long with a lot more thai food. exercise regulary in the heat and sweat it off.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

Of course diet and exercise are vital, but I think the heat plays more of a role than most people think.

Impressive.

I'm looking forward to seeing this movie.

Well done!

I live in a relatively small town, so I don't encounter many foreigners that I don't already know.

And those I don't know, I don't "acknowledge". Simply because they're not Thai is not reason enough for me to "acknowledge" them.

Was it the same machine?

Were the "two days" you mentioned, Saturday and Sunday?

If so, perhaps the machine was actually empty and will be refilled on Monday.

He said he had compared prices in Tesco/lotus in Krabi with Tesco/lotus in Phuket along with other shops and found many things 100% more expensive...Who knows?

I know one thing.

Claiming that Tesco Krabi is 100% more expensive than Tesco Phuket is utterly ridiculous.

They've got their work cut out for them.

Helmets weren't mentioned, but "high-speed" was.

And considering they flew off the overpass onto the road below, I'm not sure how much helmets would have helped them in this case.

Very happy with my Jazz for city driving.

Especially making U-turns.

I lived in Krabi a few years ago, and while some grocery items were expensive, I didn't encounter anything like what you heard.

Are Tempurpedic or Posturepedic mattresses sold in Thailand?

It's not blocked here. My wife is on Facebook at this very moment.

My wife is on Facebook right now.

Not making light of the inconvenience you're putting up with, but to be perfectly frank, I'm somewhat surprised the Internet is up and running at all during this time of unrest.

It could have been practically anything.

Best to get it checked out by a professional.

This is troubling.

I wonder if this will be part of a country-wide, coordinated strategy.

Very unlikely.

Wrap it in a couple pieces of paper to help lower the possibility.

Why Is The Thai Baht So Strong?

The countries of the currencies you're comparing it to likely have significantly more debt.

In July of last year, silver was trading at ~$12/oz on world markets. Now it's at ~19/oz.

A couple of dogs will provide plenty of security.

SWIFT transfers are quick, reliable, and the fees are negligible.
