  1. Or if you have the 25,000US to open a Schwab International account you can transfer money for free and get their debit card. The debit card rebates the Thai ATM fee instantly with no monthly limit. (If you already own stocks you can transfer them to the Schwab account to meet the 25K opening requirement.) The one thing I don't know is if you would have to pay to transfer the money from a UK bank to Schwab. From US banks you can transfer to Schwab for free. Just never accept the exchange rate the ATM tries to get you to use. Otherwise you get ripped off big time.
  2. Low railings and intoxication. Not a good combination. If you can lean over a rail at waist height the bulk of your weight is on the wrong side. But without seeing the particular hotel you can't really state the rails are too low. I see people that lean out way over the rails to get a better view. Looking at the photo in the linked article several bottles = 2 of them. Funny enough the Thai brand bottle is blurred out but the Jim Beam is not. It's still easy enough to see what the brand is if you are familiar with it. Condolences to the family.
  3. From the linked article, "The driver, Mr. Chanachon Khaokhuntod, 30, told The Pattaya News team, “I had lost control at a curve because the road was under construction, covered in gravel and sand. The vehicle slipped on the roadwork and overturned. This construction was not clearly marked and led to the accident, which was not my fault but due to the poorly marked construction area.” Or in shorter terms, "I was driving too fast for the conditions."
  4. On Facebook do a search for land Sakon Nakhon ที่ดินสกลนคร . You will find groups and individuals with land for sale so you can compare prices.
  5. you are assuming she can read but probably can't Also some accounts have the name in English. So even if they read Thai they may not read English.
  6. Maybe they did have safety straps but they were attached to the part they were dismantling.
  7. Except we have the 608 group excluded. Which includes a lot of us.
  8. The eyes have it. Perhaps it is just me. I can not tell if a woman is cute or not with a mask on.
  9. If they have any video of the incident they may be able to tell if the 'gun' he presented is the same as in the video.
  10. The side effects you get are from your body thinking it has an infection. So of course a less effective vaccine will have less side effects.
  11. Lots of repossessed homes in the mooban I live in. Some have been vacant for 8 years or more. Also gold has not dropped that much.
  12. Pranburi is a fairly quite place with nice beaches. It's about 30 minutes south of Hua Hin.
  13. Finding a way to keep the birds off the balcony is going to be the ultimate answer. Either putting up screens or those strips with wires to keep them from landing. Something like this: SNA [Ready Stock]Anti Climb Spikes Fence stainless steel Spikes Bird Cat Repellent Prickle Strips | Lazada.co.th
  14. Letting it expire would save the cost of getting a reentry permit. As long as the cost of starting over is about the same as an extension.
  15. Just tell them you lost the 90 day reciept when you do your extension. They should be able to give you a new one. Perhaps make a copy when you get a new one in case you lose it. Or take a photo of it you can print out later if needed.
