Ridiculous Electric Bill Loei Provence
As others have said, the first thing you do is check the meter reading on the bill with what the meter actually shows. If those numbers are close to each other then turn all the breakers off and see if you still have the meter turning. Turn them back on one at a time and check each time to see if there is one circuit you can isolate as the problem.

Diarrhea Frequency & Treatment in SE Asia
As someone else mentioned carbon pills work good to absorb the bugs in your gut. There are different brands. I recommend the capsule ones over the pill form. The pills are very dry in the mouth, make sure you have water ready with them. I think one of the most important things is to eat where they are busy. I don't eat at slow places because you don't know how long the food has been sitting around. I also avoid the places where everything is premade in big pots. You know they don't throw it out and just keep adding more stuff to it as needed.

12 month bank statement
My last extension in January my bank was talking about whether they needed to do a 12 month statement or just 3 months. They choose just to do a 3 month statement. I didn't say anything and decided to give it a go. I didn't have any problems getting the extension. (Ratchaburi)

Pattaya Police Investigate Stores Following Fatal Drain Cleaner Incident
Most bathroom cleaners here have hydrochloric acid in them. I get organic ones for our housekeeper to use. Also you can try putting baking soda in a sink or toilet and then pouring vinegar in to clear plugs. It foams up quite a bit.

New car, driving without plates
Not only should they have given you a red plate. They also should have given you a book with it too. You are required to fill the book out in advance when taking trips outside of your province.
