Gen Prawit orders proactive crackdown on human trafficking
Thingamabob replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
What a load of drivel. I doubt that he could care less about this issue. -
Thailand announces reopening rules for tourism reboot
Thingamabob replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Unless the bars etc are opened I can't imagine many tourists will want to come to Thailand. The govt has to choose, either they want the tourists and the associated covid risks, or they don't want them. There is no middle road that will work. -
A rather odd posting. I really don't need to be told how to live my life, or that everything today is better than it used to be. It isn't.

Vaccine passport - nice to have or actually needed?
Thingamabob replied to JRG23's topic in COVID-19 Coronavirus
I was first issued with a yellow book in 1967 when travelling from the UK to West Africa. I still have it and wonder if it could be updated in Thailand to include my two AZ jabs here. -
As a youngster did you ever think of the future ?
Thingamabob replied to Golden Triangle's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
He's right though. -
Not afraid of dying, but I need to outlive my cats and dogs first....

9 months ago I received my 800k 1 year retirement extension at CW with my bank letter and bank passbook dated/updated the previous day, likewise the year before.

Poll -- do you take a daily dose of low dose aspirin?
Thingamabob replied to Jingthing's topic in Health and Medicine
One baby aspirin per day for over 40 years. Age 80, health good (so far). -
Oh dear...you have a lot to learn.

Clearly you must decline, but do so in as friendly a way as possible. A situation like this in Thailand can become very nasty very quickly.
-
Very sorry for your loss and may your much loved wife rest in peace. Keep going, and remember the good times.

Thanks for the unpleasant insult. I'm 80, lived here permanently since 1980, with a 5 year break in Taiwan 1987-1993. Very happy in Thailand, and still have my hair and my teeth although a bit slower these days walking upstairs.

Editors Pick SURVEY: When are YOU coming back to Thailand?
Thingamabob replied to Jonathan Fairfield's topic in General Topics
That's why I'm not going anywhere. -
Get a non-O visa based on marriage. Welcome back. Life is still good in Thailand.

Did You Listen To What Momma Told You?
Thingamabob replied to siftasam's topic in Family and Children
My father told me not to come to him with my problems, and to deal with them myself. Best advice anyone ever gave me. -
Suggestions on how to get 3rd shot preferably AZ
Thingamabob replied to gamb00ler's topic in COVID-19 Coronavirus
The hospital at which I had my 2 AZ jabs said, requesting confidentiality, that they will contact me after 6 months to arrange a booster. -
Wake up. Your own heading said 'Who needs foreign tourists ? ' . Maybe you've forgotten. Anyway, the answer is Thailand needs foreign tourists.

Lithium and Cobalt are horribly difficult to mine, and their reserves are finite. Batteries have a short life and are then scrapped. EVs are a waste of time, money and resources. Hydrogen makes more sense but is difficult to extract from it's source, ie gas. The internal combustion engine is not going to be easy to replace.

Connery sounded like what he was, a truck driver from Glasgow. Nothing wrong with that, but not the guy as portrayed by Ian Fleming.
