  1. It seems the police have their instructions from the ministerial level and now proceeding like chickens with their heads cut off. This shows that many immigration offices do not know who lives where, that is, whether American or Irani. Pathetic.
  2. Two police visits in the past few years. We arrived in 2008. A Captain and two sergeants asked to see my passport and driver's license. Second visit I call the "music police". They were in civvies, plainclothes, and no ID produced when asked. They were selling tickets to a Carabao show near Hua Hin. My wife told them we were well past caring about music. They finally left.
  3. Also, as a confused adult, Boo Radley, in the movie To Kill a Mockingbird. Please see: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056592/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_to%2520kill%2520a%2520mock
  4. This is still true 13 or so hours later. There is an unformatted link at the beginning that is somewhat faint. Terry just south of Hua Hin...
  5. In 1982 I worked a communications center in Panama. My 12 hour shifts became easily 15 hours after the Argentine invasion. Many teletypes to Whitehall. I saw the British freighter Atlantic Conveyor transit the Panama Canal on its way for modification to be a helicopter carrier. Our back channel intelligence activities skyrocketed in volume. I heard several Latino born American soldiers refer to the Malvinas. A previous assignment for us was to the NATO/OTAN communications center in Naples, Italy, that is, Allied Forces South. I learned that France was intensely involved in the military exercises. One customer was the French Military Mission. The French tried to game the system in which they used the Italian Post and Telegraph to send and receive telegrams. Distant end was a French Navy activity in Marseilles. They sent a service message in French stating the circuit was out of service. I pasted that to a sheet of A4 paper and added my own simple translation. I heard the French admiral was chewed out by Admiral Shear. I'm just reminiscing here.
  6. Nothing on my iPhone I bought in the U.S. I recall getting some kind of alert several months ago.
  7. Yes, the dial pad to make outgoing calls does not work for me. I did activate my account recently. I will try again. Thank you for your help.
  8. Thanks for your reply. That Skype web site will not allow me to call. H.?.? Terry
  9. I only had Credit, therefore no Paid Products. Can one get reimbursed? Terry in Thailand...
  10. Skype had a web site where you supposedly could use your credit to make calls. I call my U.S. bank from time to time.
  11. Yes, indeed a travesty as Cambodian media says they want peace while Hun Sen and his son Hun Manet wage war.
  12. I've used HHIO, Hua Hin Immigration Office, since 2008. There is only minor corruption such as a fee for Proof of Residence (driver's license renewal) and for transferring first and last visa stamps when getting a new passport. It has changed locations several times, about six or seven in all those years. Terry ( a few miles south of Hua Hin )...
  13. Mr. Nawat was on that cooking show with three others and did well. Then he has Wuhan virus (COVID 19) and went to hospital. He wanted to have a longer stay in the hospital. The doctor asked him to leave. Maybe he has long COVID.
  14. Yes, see a doctor to make sure no other issues. Omeprazole and its previous drug has worked for me for 35 years. Here is a bit of history, a story from Australia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Marshall
  15. I noticed that IMDB dot com was not answering a query. It is OK today.
