  1. Sorry. That video made me laugh. No doubt he will blame GPS.
  2. I know I am not the best with tones so harder to understand. But I think sometimes they see a foreigner and expect them to speak english and are trying hard to understand what you are saying. But you are speaking Thai and it all sounds like a big scramble to them because they are not listening for Thai. I once ordered at a coffee shop and the girls mouth opened in shock. I asked her if i said something wrong. She said no, you said it clearer than most Thai's do. I told her I must of got lucky.
  3. It costs around 5,000/year to insure our house here. To be honest I don't know what exactly would be covered. Like if the roof starts leaking I don't think they would cover it.
  4. We get insurance because it is required by law. Otherwise I am sure lots of Americans would not get it. Also in America someone can break into your house, fall down, get injured, sue you, and win.
  5. In the first photo look how dirty that one panel is. Maintenance doesn't seem to be a priority. I don't know about them partly blaming rainfall unless the roof also needs maintenance.
  6. They need 3 categories now, Men, Women, and Open
  7. No matter what it says it still often comes down to what the individual officer thinks is correct. I once got rejected in Ratchaburi when I filed it 4 days before the due date. When I went in and asked why he said I waited to late and to do 14 days before.
  8. It is normal for them to charge you a 2 or 3 percent commission when cashing a ticket. Alternatively you can take the ticket to the lottery office in Bangkok and cash it with no fee. Also I have heard that GSB, Om Sin, will cash tickets for you if you have an account with them. Also be aware that some lottery tickets now have a charitable donation(charge) on them. So if you win that amount is subtracted from the winnings too.
  9. Problem is most of us are too old to donate blood in Thailand.
  10. Won't be surprising when they can't find him in Thailand anymore.
  11. Try it both ways using a speed test and see for yourself.
  12. Stay with her so you don't have to worry about spreading herpes.
  13. I see charging stations all over the place now. I see them in hospital parking lots. The local Homepro has some. Local PEA office has some. Etc...
  14. Did he edit his post? I don't see anything about receiving a phone call. I also don't see where it says he edited it.
  15. Sexually abusing children is extremely horrible. Recording it is extremely stupid.
  16. Taxi driver will probably sue him for defamation. (and win)
  17. Not the first ex convict given a government job.
  18. The left wheel? Was he riding sideways?
  19. They have regular interest paying accounts and then they have the 'lottery accounts'. Instead of paying everyone interest they have drawings for the payouts. So for every big winner there are way more that got nothing.
  20. As others have said there are countries where you can legally buy your citizenship/passport. So there may have been nothing illegal with the sign.
  21. My wife worked for over 40 years. She doesn't work because, like me, retired.
  22. Just like condos, Stop overproducing.
  23. I bought a knife set on Amazon. It arrived with no problems.
  24. Arcoxia works great for certain types of pain. But I noticed my pulse goes way up when I take it. So I stopped using it. It was a reformulation of Vioxx which worked great too but was taken off the market because of increased risk of heart attacks.
  25. Hopefully he will spend the rest of his life in a Thai prison but I doubt it.
