Why did they wait 10 years to sell the rice?

Like fine brandy, it improves with age?

Who will fit his dog collar?

When first I read the announcement on AN I immediately checked the date in case it was 01 April 2024! Then saw it on Thai TV news and Thai English language newspaper websites. So, fully out in the public domain, it must be true. Checked the London Thai Consulate News and Visa info but no mention. Still need a Tourist Visa for more than 30 days on entry.

Now D Day arrives and no change. Cynicism is alive and well! 🥺

I wish I was a 'content creator and dancer'. I would create soothing scenes around me and pas de deux with my wife into the sunset......🤗

If he was leaving why not just let him go? 

To spite the AN lawyers who advise overstayers to pay their fine at the airport before boarding a booked flight to avoid detention😀

Standard off-the-shelf electrically driven water pumps are reliable and longlifed with routine maintenance. 🙄

3 years to fit an engine ?.................

The Chinese builder is unlikey to commence construction until the revised contract is signed by all parties. The Thai cabinet has yet to approve the purchase.

Effectively, the engine needs to be installed before the pressure hull is completed. The sub is powered by an electric motor fed from a battery. The motor drives an electrical generator to charge the battery and electric motor when surfaced.

The forthcoming submarine is seen as a monumental step

And, will likely end up moored alongside its sister vessel, the aircraft carrier monument.

Pity that Thai infrastructure, in general, does not support wheelchair users.

I'm impressed that food inspectors are being stringent on the need to maintain quality in exported produce. It is vital in ensuring that overseas buyers have continued confidence in their large-scale purchases.

Last week, from a local UK Asian market, I bought an unfamiliar brand of imported Thai Hom Mali rice marked as five star. It turned out to be the best steamed rice in every respect that I have eaten in my lifetime including in Thailand.

Sounds like a pretty good deal to me, 83 quid a day including accommodation and transport. His overheads must have been quite high. 

According to the previous post, the accommodation was 'free'. 😀

Good to see that the paroled cum-convict is under police surveillance during his tours although I am concerned about the impartiality of the senior police officer tugging his forelock. (Refer to OP image)

Escaped from Chiang Mai Zoo which is below Doi Suthep?

Could be here to learn Muay Thai but got beaten and humiliated by a Kung Fu student and bolted for the airport?

so people do not call the police or they did and they were to busy with other things like collection envelopes ?

......the police, along with forensic investigators and volunteers of Ruamkatanyu Foundation, hurriedly reached the scene ......

Usually, they would have 'rushed' but for this incident there was less urgency.

Somewhere, out there in the forest, is a bear walking on stumps......

I hope the police track down that infected expat Brit mingled with the crowd in Korat. You know, the one that gave our Tony the Covid......😮‍💨
