    If you complete a UK tax return (or other documents) you'll have a UTR. Unique Tax Reference Number which would be too be equivalent. I don't know if you might have such a number otherwise too.

    Utter nonsense! It doesn’t matter where it’s paid. If it’s U.K. income it’s subject to tax.

    Then they're complete morons. If I go less than a kilometre to local shop I put on my full Face HJC helmet AND motorcycle gloves. Takes 30 seconds - an accident just as likely to occur at the bottom of your own road.

    I've suspended my getting involved in brawls until the thai authorities sort out the outrageous blocking of ambulances by irresponsible Thai drivers. It's just not worth the risk and they are curtailing the fun for everyone! 😡

    It's the body's natural mechanism as you age to wake you up in time for your night time pee, thus avoiding the worse outcome of bed wetting.

    I have an 18 year old plasma Panasonic bought in UK and brought out here when I emigrated. Still going strong. I did buy a 55 inch LG OLED about 4 years ago which I put in the new house. It was a bargain 25K baht half price because it was last year's model but is fantastic . Reviews say LG make the best OLED on the market. Can't disagree and being a smart TV has pre installed TV apps like Netflix etc.

    The best thing you can do with it is drop it in the bin on the way out. We were offered that or a smallish fan. We took the fan….

    Diesel is quite difficult to light vs petrol or gas. It takes immense pressure or sustained flame to do so.

    I live nearby and been a couple of times over past decade. However the 2 tier pricing (10 x normal price for Farang) 400 baht means I haven’t been for several years and won’t again. To be honest I was quite underwhelmed by it given it’s supposed to be Thailand’s biggest national park.

    Perhaps Halal busses would prevent collisions with trucks Carrying this cargo…?

    The authorities are "scratching " their heads as to the cause of the accident

    In worrying developments medical staff became concerned when she showed delusions that Scotland could become successful as an independent country... 🥴

    Can always be made to look good in a selectively timed photo. Quite different now to when I was diving there 33 years ago. But then no speedboat trips and the only people there were live aboard divers because you weren't allowed to stay overnight on the islands. Happy days...

    They’re not mutually exclusive.. 🥴

    Bit of a wild statement "There is simply no real fundamental cultural demand for safety" i would try saying that to the victims It is simply every ones responsibility for safety That’s my point exactly. It’s only when they become victims that it dawns on ,then evenly only some ,of them. Why else do they not wear helmets?

    There is simply no real fundamental cultural demand for safety. If there was you would see people taking simple inexpensive measures to protect themselves, like wearing helmets or not drink drive. They get what they deserve...

    Ah,this is what is meant when I chose a VIP bus company...

    Such a nonsense. What has that to do with a racing event Whoosh! Right over your head

    In further developments they have proposed using a bus converted to gas by Somchai as the Safety Vehicle..

    It’s a Faustian pact between the population who don’t have the intelligence nor inclination to include safety in their lifestyles and the authorities who will simply make the right noises and let them kill themselves - it’s no skin off their noses. Only a cultural shift will change this - it really isn’t worth reporting on anymore.
