DO NOT just transfer the money over before you have spoken to your bank as they will just give you the bog standard exchange rate. You can negotiate preferable exchange rates directly with your bank (I do it all the time with Bangkok Bank). If they refuse just shop around to see who is offering the best rate. Then tell your bank you will take your business elsewhere unless they match or do better. The only caveat is how much they want your business. I use BB for my business as well as personal so they are always bending over backwards to accommodate. Just remember they are a business like any other business and should act accordingly. P.S. Talking to the right person is also key.

Not sure if you're being facetious here but I use a fastrack service all the time (only at Suvarnabhumi so can't comment on Don Mueang) and had guest use it about 2 weeks ago. You get picked up at the gate, stuck on a buggy and fastracked through immigration. Guy/lady stays with you whilst your bags arrive (doesn't fastrack your bags unfortunately but that's to be expected), then takes you to a waiting car for journey home/to hotel. If it doesn't exist then I need to dose down on the weed I'm smoking. -
So predictable. I suppose you have to go on about the border because there really isn't much else to moan about; inflation under control (and done quicker than any other G7 country), employment at an all time high, stock market going gangbusters, infrastructure finally getting sorted, medicine prices coming down, trying to reign in Israel, respected again on the world stage. But yeah, the border.

Again with this false equivalency as if Biden and Trump are two sides of the same coin. Trump is MUCH worse than Biden in any manner you care to mention but even with that, the 'hatred and loathing' is kept solely for him. I don't mind GOP supporters in general, hell I don't even mind some Trump fans (I have a few friends who are) - I just can't stand the man himself.

Yet you feel qualified to say “nether diverse or inclusive enough “ -

And what is so 'diverse' and 'inclusive' about the MAGA brigade? Have you seen his rally's? Apart from the strategic blacks placed directly behind him for the camera's, it's literally a sea of white.

If you bothered to read my posts then you would see I have been consistent with what I’ve said about this particular “incident”, giving Trump a pass on this one but pulling him up for his numerous other inflammatory comments. I can certainly see how others would think differently though. -
Have a look at Gift of Happiness Foundation - Home (gohappiness.org) This is a small but fantastic charity that is has been run by Eddie for many years now. They have very small operational costs and the vast majority of donations go straight to the kids. I've been supporting this for many years now and have never had to worry about them 'spend inordinate amounts on "management" (a particular bugbear of mine as well). P.S. It's also non-religious.

I don't have to believe anything. I can see it with my own eyes and hear it with my own ears. All of these things are on record either by video or in his numerous tweets. None of it is subtle; none of it is complicated. It's you who is also seeing and listening to exactly what he says but then choosing to either ignore it or excuse it. Or more worrying, just agreeing with it. So lets not get into IQ. -

So you too are good with this language. That's good to know. -

So you agree with what he said. Ok -

I agree. I can't see why anyone would get 'frothy at the mouth.' I mean it's only in regard to things he actually says and does. How terribly unreasonable. I'll give the same question to you as did to ol' G_Money. What do you think Trump meant when he said 'undocumented migrants are “poisoning the blood of our country. It’s so bad, and people are coming in with disease.” or when he said '“We will root out the communists, Marxists, fascists and the radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country' Do you agree with these statements? Do you think they are being misinterpreted? -

I think Ozimoron has answered you deflection particularly well so no need for my contribution so how about you answer me this? What do you think Trump meant when he said 'undocumented migrants are “poisoning the blood of our country. It’s so bad, and people are coming in with disease.” or when he said '“We will root out the communists, Marxists, fascists and the radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country' I'm genuinely interested to hear your take on this.
