    Good luck, unless it's hard wired . Some Thai will come along when you are not watching and plug your 110V device into the 220V and that will be the end of that. Been there done it.

    Better to pay by the hour, say 100฿

    A lot of Ukrainiens are pro Russian ,that is why it's a strange war. Putin can not stage an all out offensive .otherwise he would have won a long time ago. It's a shame Zalenski and the mafia that keep him in power are sending young men to die.

    Thailand is not a good place to hide out. Should have gone somewhere with no extradition. When his father was arrested should have took off.

    Corruption was the cause of Brexit. The moneyed elite promoted the pull out because the EU was going to start digging into offshore bank accounts.

    It's not just Thai weather that influences travelers. Some people come to escape the -40's at home and when that season passes they are quite happy to return home.

    If they are smart they will hire a Dutch company. They have all the right gear and could raise up that ship in no time flat. However the contract will most probably go to friends of the friends and will be a debacle.

    A lot of Ukrainians prefer Russia to Zalenski and the crooks that back him. This is why it's a strange war. Putin can't steamroller over the Ukraine without harming his own supporters. Western media totally refuse to mention this fact,

    The Chinese most probably have one already. However it's the software that makes them unique. They will most probably get approved for a dumbd down version, looks the same but with a lot of features missing.

    Be careful they are addictive, You always need one more to balance them out. I have three and need one more. After that I will most probably need more so I stopped .

    Don't you need an ATM card to deposit cash in one of those machines?

    I got screwed on the Thai Pass last year so used an agent second time I applied. Advertised time was 2 to 7 days. I had mine in 3 hours cost B3000 . I should have used them first time.

    Canada and the US took their time allowing craft brewers, but their time has come. It will come in Thailand too but when?

    My wife comes from a large family. Everyone that owns a house has it because they went overseas to work, Saudi Arabia, Taiwan etc. Couldn't make it in Thailand.

    The Amari hotel at Don Muang has a real good breakfast.

    That would be the wise way to go but you have lots of opposition. Crooks want it illegal as that keeps the price up. Cops want it illegal as it keeps the cash flowing " war on drugs". Owners of private jails in the US need lots of inmates to keep the cash flowing etc. Dope a medical problem not a criminal one and should be treated as such.

    MSN messenger works the same.

    I wonder if this is the <deleted> that stole the cable to my house 200m of copper. I replaced it with aluminium but you have to ask for it as they hide it in the back of the store owing to it being many times cheaper than copper.

    I went to buy a helmet in Udon Thani. Out of about fifty helmets the only one was big enough was a pink one. I bought it so I don't know what the next farang is going to buy.

    Fentanyl is nasty stuff . In British Columbia Canada six people die every day from it, 1200 this year to date .If it comes to Thailand you will see the bodies pile up.

    Thailand finally got it right.

    What a load of rubbish. The Crimea chose to go with Russia. The USA is waging war all over the place with 150 overseas bases. How many did they murder in Iraq and Afghanistan? Still in Syria stealing oil. Can't bear to see China getting ahead, dreaming up all kinds of ways to screw them. Truly an evil pox on the world. I have friends just returned from the Ukraine ,they welcome the Russians coming to run off the gangsters currently running the country.

    What I would like to know is if you can drive through Laos to Vietnam as that would be the nearest place to go to the beach. I could drive to Rayong in about 9 hours but since the fixed the road there is more traffic and it takes 12 hours.

    Waterfalls are especially dangerous at low water as the surrounding rocks are very smooth and slippery. I slipped on one twenty years ago popped my big toe nail. Taped it down, it was healing well till a big ant bit me and my toe swelled up and popped it again.
