  1. Nobody gets it. It's total ???????? cuz there's no such thing. Life is hazardous and random. Regardless how seemingly deserving or undeserving...bad things happen to good people and good things happen to bad. No cosmic or divine justice. Only random events which affect random people in random and myriad ways. Nature and the universe don't give a flip about any of us.
  2. Or...just an extremely overdue action that is finally being reimplemented. Should have been changed back long ago...but better late than never, I guess.
  3. Watched the final game. Sides were mostly evenly matched, but Thailand was the better squad overall and deserved the win. Well done on defending the championship????❗
  4. Don't know if ridiculous short stay reporting is still "required" any longer or not. But regardless, why do everything "by the (silly) book"? NO one will ever know, nor care. I travel all around Thailand and visit/stay for days and even weeks with foreign and Thai friends/relatives and no one ever reports me. No one knows or cares about it. It's ridiculous to worry yourself over such a stupid, unnecessary and invasive rule over a weekend. If they were moving in permanently...that would be a different story. Enjoy your weekend!
  5. If DIY Last Will...where does one take it to be filed or registered when it's complete? Like where would one take it in Jomtien or Pattaya? Thx.
  6. Besides the shorter bill and narrower eyestripe is the all-black nape of Common. Greater has some white back there.
  7. OK! Then that is a fair price for sure and we'll worth it. ????
  8. Why not take a Bolt or even Grab? Prob cheaper or close...and even if more spendy, get door to door service. Stopped taking those airport busses more than a decade ago when they became more pricey than a metered Taxi, especially if 2 people traveling together.
  9. I use FedEx, but it's easy here in Chon Buri plus I get a 75% discount. FedEx is very pricey without the discount....about $100 USD for an envelope. If not for the discount, I would use Thai Post EMS as suggested above by @flexomike
  10. Nice yardbird either way, but that bill looks a bit small for Greater and eyestripe narrow. Possibly Common Flameback. Any other angles or views of it's head and face?
  11. Want the whole year with high season prices is all they want.
  12. Literally more than 120 Visa Exempt entries over 20 years and not once, EVER, was asked to show a return ticket. Of course, that could've changed over the past half-dozen years since having a "Retirement Visa".
  13. "Roadshow"? That's gonna be ugly with all the road carnage and death here!
  14. LOF.,.Land of Flipflops. Silly, impulsive flip-flop capital of the world. It's just hilarious watching these clowns trip all over themselves day-to-day. You'd think they might learn from SO many previous embarrassing blunders. NOPE...just keep on keepin' on! ????
  15. More likely to be Pink-necked Green Pigeon than Orange-breasted Green Pigeon in your area as they are much more commonly reported in and around BKK. However if the head of the male was definitely green (and not gray), could well have been Orange-breasted. Without a pic, impossible to know now. And sometimes even with a pic, can still be difficult to discern. They are very similar. I had up to a dozen Pink-necked Green just a half km off Sukhumvit year-round in Bang Chak area of BKK when I lived there a few years back. Below is a Pink-necked Green I snapped in BKK in 2016.
  16. Great big T I T. Land of...Confusion, Inconsistency, Clueless, Rules, Ideas and schemes-pulled-out-of-ass then cancelled/changed/not enforced/over enforced. All of the above depending on what day of week or direction of wind.
  17. Same for me. Not received an email newsletter since last year.
  18. Still no newsletter emails? Have I been given a permanent "time out"❓????
