I feel sure that this was mooted a couple of years or so back, I did a search on here but came up empty handed, it may have been in either the Nation or BKP, but I'm pretty sure the same scheme was announced before - Or am I dreaming

How do people know what their heart rate is on waking up ?? It takes me about 2 hours and umpteen mugs of tea to even know what century I'm in.

I really don't get the negativity.
I've been and lived in Thailand many times for many years, and find most Thai people to be quite agreeable.
Yes, I've seen the greed, and the corruption, but I can't believe that the head of the government is going to ignore difficulties and problems in his back yard.
And for those of you who disagree with my suggestions, may I please get the reasons why?
Anyway, I'm holding hope that there will be a reply, and a pleasant one.
Let's see.
We're holding out hope that the men in the white coats come and take you away

Who do you think causes the difficulties and problems in "his' backyard?Peter Pan?No it's the sole responsibility of the PM.He is the chief architect and instigator and sure as day follows night he will be ignoring your letter,but he might use the suggestion of raising the deposit of 800,000 baht to 1 million and credit you with the idea and that will make you very popular around here! This has to be a troll post as nobody would be that stupid would they?
Probably, there are a few stupid people frequent this most holy of forums

Financial services companies - banks, custodians, funds etc. I also have friends with SME import / export businesses who have contingency plans.
Businesses / business people always find a way!
Thanks for that, it is always nice to get some sort of positive feedback from people on the front line as it were, I had a long chat with one of my brothers last night, he hangs out with a few City of London high fliers and basically echoed your sentiments, the trouble for me though is the continued uncertainty and fear of what might happen, especially to the GBP.

I'm fine with Geckos it's my Mrs that has the problem, like a lot of Thai ladies, they don't like them, Very small ones in the bathroom I catch by hand and release outside, yeah I know they'll be back, the bigger ones, I take off the drain cover and hit them with they water from the shower, they flush down the drain and the Mrs is always very grateful ????
Tokays are noisy gits and I do all I can to discourage them.

99% of this is pure speculation, and solely focusing on (exaggerated) negative impacts. It reminds me of the stuff that came from George Osborne in the run up to the referendum. Or those that said we would be left behind if we didn't join the Euro (how did the ERM work out for us John Major?)
Every big business I've been involved with has plans in place to prevent disruption if we leave without a deal. That will be the case across most of the UK.
I would be interested to know which businesses you have been involved with, purely for clarification of course.

I wasn't aware that we had an "Honourable" Prime Minister !!
Hopefully if you sent via email you can delete it before its been read, or if by Thai post ask them to send it back to you.
You're not a body double for Steve100 are you ?
Never seen such tosh in all my years.
We're all gonna get deported now, cheers dude.

I am just over the moon that the whole of Thailand and the Thais in general find this so amusing, I just hope that we don't have to read next week or soon after that the moronic plod let them off with a smile and a wave had to go and attend an accident scene when they ended up under the wheels of a 10 wheeler truck or anything else for that matter.
When is this country ever gonna get serious with the blatant flouting of traffics laws and regulations, those imbecile cops should be hauled in front of their superior told to hand in their uniforms and set free to go & play with the traffic on a motorway somewhere, sheesh this country is so chuffin backwards at times.
And before some of you want to berate me & and my exasperated attitude ask a few members on here who have been screwed by stupid cops when the indigenous population run into the back of/ side of / front of stationary vehicles and the 3 morons reported on here yesterday or the day before that drove into the side of a Fortuner.

Well, I guess that says it all. ????
By the way--- what happened to Thaivisa's old selection of emojis? There were some great emojis, wonderful emojis, unique emojis, very useful emojis. Now they seem to have been supplanted by the usual ilk. ????
They are still there, the category is "Default" HTH

Mrs. Narumon insisted that the Prime Minister was not discouraged and has been working as normal.
Oh Poo, I was rather hoping he was slowly getting the message and maybe just a tad suicidal.

It wasn't a bitterly fought election at all, the JUNTA held all the cards and cooked the books and fiddled with numbers from the word go.
Will someone tell the author to please either check his or her facts and then report the truth that we all know and understand. Really..........................

Former army chief General Prayuth Chan-ocha was elected prime minister thanks to votes in the upper house, the Senate, which was entirely appointed by the military junta Prayuth had led since 2104.
Well that's it then, we are screwed if these morons have been Back to the Future.

Okay, I'll lay my cards on the table, I voted to remain, because it is what I firmly believed at the time to be in the best interest of the UK as whole, I won't go into the ins & outs of my decision, but I firmly believe that the pigeons are now coming home to roost. And it ain't gonna be pretty for any of us.
At this moment in time I am completely peed off with our politicians and how they have kidnapped what the British (UK) people voted for, the majority voted to leave and as of today we are no closer to an amicable solution than we were over 3 years ago.
I want this travesty, farce, stupidity to be over once and for all so that we can all get back to living some form of normal life and not forever fretting over our future and standard of living which has deteriorated rapidly for the last few years.

Ok, let's say "when" then. So can you answer the question?
What I'm suggesting is that the backstop is not in the WA because the EU are concerned about a hard border. The backstop is in the WA so that they can retain control over the UK indefinitely. Because if we leave with no deal on 31st Oct, the EU will miraculously find a solution to the border issue.
Or do you think the EU will start building border infrastructure on 1st November?
Do you believe that to be true ? I would like to think so but find it highly unlikely, david555 poses an interesting question ????

Trust me annoying neighbours aren't only found in condo units, I have a neighbour on one side who is a total bell end, he has the ugliest dog in the world that makes a really noise when it barks, a sort of cross between a bark, a whine and a whimper, oh and it has football eyes, one at home one away, his Mrs will sit out the back talking on her phone at top volume for the whole village to hear and boy does she ever have the most irritating grating voice I have ever heard, and when they actually speak to each other !! well I'm pretty sure that they are both hard of hearing because one and all can hear them talking about the most personal of details.
I have asked him to keep his noise down but it's like water off a ducks back.
The other idiot opposite, what can I say ? I could go on for ages, so now during the day if they make a noise I turn up the radio to drown them out, at night I have rechargeable Blue Tooth headphones for the TV.
I like the suggestion of putting the stereo up loud with the emphasis on the bass and turn the speakers to the wall and bugger off out for a few hours or overnight, do that a few times and he may get the hint. Good luck

Wow, that made me laugh. One of the strangest answers to a comment I've read in ages. Your opening post asked for serious/valid replies and what you seem to have is a load of people arguing. I'm on your side, at least I thought I was until I read your answer. I think you and I have totally misjudged each other.
Just one thing though I won't be told to keep quiet by anyone. IF I break the rules somehow then admins can step in. Suggest you put me on ignore if you don't like what I say. Have you read my two previous post on this thread? Is that not what you're looking for?
It would seem that I'm guilty as charged, I have read every reply in this thread, what I sometimes don't do is to check who posted what, when I read your comment I took it as a baiting post suggesting I had an ulterior motive or hidden agenda, not so, so I apologise unreservedly. Okay. ????

If it's just 2 or 3 of them they may have come thru the front door. I live in a very small condo on a high floor.. been here for 8 years and very rarely had a cockroach, i think about 3 times.. everytime they had entered thru the front door at night in small groups, like 3 of them.
Not through the front door, the bathroom is the en-suite at the back of the house, the windows are shut and locked as are the fly screens, and as shown in my OP the drains have mesh covers and the sink has the overflow covered with electrical tape (not pretty but effective) and all sink plungers / plugholes have been adjusted so water flows out but nothing like a Roach can come in that way, they only reappeared after I had opened a new 28 pack of bog roll, I would imagine that the factory where they are made or the warehouse that they are stored in is infested with them.

Maybe not the replies you were looking for then? Pity ????
I don't have a problem with the replies so far, therefore I don't understand your comment.
I wasn't looking for any particular type of comment, just that the conversation be kept civil with valid responses, unfortunately as far as I can tell yours doesn't fit that criteria, why would you say such a thing ? do you have an agenda ? Tell you what dode whatever unless you have something other than trolling in mind keep quiet please.

Everything is pointing to using an agent, sorry but that is true, you may as well get used to the idea because otherwise you won't get what you want.
