  1. I just completed this quiz. My Score 60/100 My Time 140 seconds  
  2. You shouldn't have done. You'd have had a really good laugh!
  3. I just completed this quiz. My Score 40/100 My Time 51 seconds  
  4. I think that's how I did it, but a lot of hide bound Brits don't do change very easily. It took many folks years just to accept kilograms instead of pounds and ounces.
  5. With Krungsri you can update your passport number easily enough, however I later discovered that, just like you I couldn't activate my phone App when I replaced it. Long story short, it turned out that changing your passport number on the bank's main database does not alter the database used by the mobile apps. I had to sign a request at bank authorizing them to re-download my mobile app data from the main database. It took about 3 hours in total to get my app working again. New passport coming up in 3 years, but at least I know what to do now.
  6. I think the simplest and most logical answer to that is the huge cost of changing all the road signs. (plus maps and travel guides etc) The bigger confusion came when they switched from selling fuel in gallons to liters in 1995. So now how does the Great British public express fuel consumption?
  7. Surely the police should have been notified immediately and Tong's body impounded until released by them, (the police) not by the hospital. What a topsy Turvey country this can be at times.
  8. Good for you. Keep right on breathing.
  9. I have a book called the Science of Breath. which outlines many different routines and there are many more on the web. But I think the real secret is to find the one that suits you the best. Following ones instinct think is the best way to go.
  10. By 'fake' I simply mean not produced by an official source, i.e. the South Yorkshire Police and on that point. you do seem to agree with me. And indeed I do agree with you as to their (the producers) intent in producing it.
  11. I was requesting a change of bank details within the UK for which a form is not necessary. Thanks to @Raindancer above, I now know about this Equiniti website which might be useful in the future. https://equiniti.com/uk/contact-us/veterans-uk-overseas-pensions-payment-forms/
  12. Which country are you transferring from? If it's the US or Canada perhaps you should read Wise's Q2 Mission update. See link below. https://wise.com/gb/blog/q2-2024-mission-update-speed
  13. 1. His height is reported in feet and inches. The UK went metric in 1965 and the police, being an official public body would use centimeters. 2. The post refers to the 'British Police'. There is no such entity. The police in England Wales are divided into regional divisions. If the South Yorkshire Police really produce this poster then that is how they would refer to themselves as. 3. In yesterday's post it was reported that: 'South Yorkshire police have confirmed that Simon’s case has been reported, though they have not launched a missing persons appeal'. So why would they produce a poster? I therefor conclude the South Yorkshire Police did not produce this poster. It's a fake.
  14. I would suggest to the forensic team that they look for a long stick with bloods stains at one end and Yon's dabs at the other.
  15. When a phone is static it will 'ping' on just one mast, usually the nearest. When a phone moving it will 'ping' on a number of masts in succession, thus indicating is direction of movement, a tracking technique that often used in crime detection work. The phone company would therefor have been able to report that Simon's phone wasn't just 'near' the airport. They would know whether it travelled to the airport at that time. It would be one of the first things that any investigator would want to know. "Where was he and what were his last known movements'.
  16. I caught an MRSA from a hospital bed in Udon Thani! I've sworn (to myself) never to stay in a hospital again. What else is lurking in those disease ridden places?
  17. And it's pretty obvious that they DID release the information. (to an appropriate person) How else would his sister have known that he was on that flight?
  18. Yes, the story of my wayward life. My mother once mailed me 2 blank sheets of writing paper and a pre-addressed envelope!
  19. My apologies if my response to your earlier post confused you. It was your reference to the 'many hotels all around here' that confused me. And it still does.
  20. I rather doubt that any airline would reveal passenger details to anyone other than authorized entities such as the police or immigration. The Sun newspaper hardly falls into that category.
  21. So this 'poster' is fake. I was suspicious of this right from the start. What else is 'fake' about this story?
  22. The conversion rate is fixed the moment the customer selects 'confirmed'. The local agent operates in THB and issues the appropriate amount to the customer's bank in that currency. Nothing changes once the amount has been accepted by the customer.
  23. No it doesn't. It only indicates where the phone is. However the story suggests that his last call was to his girlfriend letting her know he was on his way to the airport. What other conclusion can one draw?
  24. Once again I refer Wise customers to their Q2 Mission Update blog. Read the righthand panel and then click/tap the 'Learn More' If you all did that there should be no more of these dreary repeats of the same topic. https://wise.com/campaign/mission-update-q224
