These are the TOU tariffs from 2023: Residential should use the Below 12 kv figures, obviously VAT and FT will be added giving actual charges close to: Peak 7.0 baht/kWH Off peak 3.2 baht/kWh TOU times: No doubt there will be an additional charge for supply and installation of TOU meter. -
The 16e has mixed reviews, it is classed as a budget model but still has very good specs compared with a 10 or 12, but lacks some options found on recent ( 15 or 16 ) Pro models. There are many comparison videos on YouTube where you can see differences and recommendations between, for example, a 15 Pro and the 16e. Difficult to recommend as depends on what your boy feels more important in a phone. While the 16e might lack some features it is a small neat package and the battery life is excellent. The single camera makes the phone more visually appealing imo but obviously lacking Macro and Telephoto options found on other models. I have looked at the 16e and it is appealing but would go for the 15 Pro Max for the larger screen and better camera features. There was very little change from 15 to 16 models so hopefully would find a 15 PM at a reasonable price.

I have, albeit back in 2017, and understand that finding someone to sign off on this in the U.K. can be difficult. I got a letter from my GP stating something about searching through my files and not finding any signs of any of the diseases listed, which i thought of as a bit of a cop out. I had the opportunity to get a signed medical certificate here in Thailand, at a local hospital, for around 360 baht . At the Thai Embassy in London they refused the gp letter but accepted the Thai certificate. As the medical certificate was in Thai and English language i suspected it might work and luckily it did. Sorry i don’t have more up to date information but if possible i would get the medical certificate in Thailand.

So, after the ordeal of passport renewal changing the stamps was a breeze. Your IO might have different ideas but in Ayutthaya it went like this: Signed photocopy of new passport photo page. Signed photocopies of every stamped page, + photo page, of old passport. Application form. Waited around 20 minutes while the io’s had the usual game of pass the parcel with my paperwork ! 90 days report date stays the same ( June 17th ) 1st report to be done in person.

Musically - Is this as good as it gets?
Andrew Dwyer replied to Don Giovanni's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Don’t agree with the Hendrix comment. My elder brother used to own a bunch of experimental rock music albums from artists such as Zappa, Can, Gong, Faust and many other Krautrock bands from the sixties which I could never get into. Seemed like they were producing sounds by any manner necessary to create “ music “, indeed Pink Floyd were working on an album using only household objects in their early days. But among the weird were the classic stuff and some lesser known bands that stood the test of time to create a cult following, one such band is Pink Fairies. -
Retirement Visa Requirements / Criteria
Andrew Dwyer replied to djeetyet's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
2) Yes, the one year statement requirement is not uncommon and some banks need a few days to provide this statement, Bangkok Bank do. 4) Yes, home visits are common for the first 1 year extension, even on retirement. 5) Another requirement which is location dependent, I have had OA visa and O visa and many extensions but have never left my passport overnight with immigration. -

Music is indeed subjective and while one man’s Hendrix might be another man’s Frankie Laine we should respect the abilities of all. Over the years my tastes have changed slightly but it seems anything with a guitar is good in my opinion and this guy is my current favourite. Could listen to this any day . -

Deepal E07 https://autolifethailand.tv/official-price-changan-deepal-e07-thailand-jan2025/ Saw one of these in the flesh today, very striking in the grey colour. A beast of a car next to the S07 with its 21” wheels, bull nose front end and an unusual rear looking a little like a cross between a Cybertruck and an Aztec !! Choice of RWD for 1.599m with 342 HP and a 6.7 second 0-100 or AWD for 1.999m with 598 hp and 3.96 seconds 0-100, current prices, normal price is +100k on both ), NMC battery chemistry on both. Obviously very striking rear end is its main selling point. The rear glass window slides up over the roof to create the pick up visual and has the drop down tailgate with a small glass window as the top half which can disappear into the tailgate at the press of a button, indeed it is all electrically operated. Not sure about driving with the tailgate down as the licence plate will not be on show, unless that swings down to be visible ? With the rear end all closed it provides 524 ltrs of storage which, imho, is good but not groundbreaking, but an impressive 131 ltrs frunk. Separating the cargo space and the rear seats is a panel with the top half glass and the bottom half plastic, electrically lower the glass panel, lower the rear seats and the plastic panel can also be lowered to provide a lengthy sleeping area. Inside is the usual array of functionality v gimmickery , gear changes are via the right hand steering wheel stalk meaning the centre console is clear of buttons or switches. Hopefully using the stalk to ( forgetfully) indicate right at speed won’t put you straight into reverse !! Seems like changing the habit of a , driving, lifetime could be difficult ! Hopefully also the brown interior is not the only option for AWD, a black version is available only for RWD. The 15.4” screen can be tilted towards driver or passenger ( not sure if these are the only two positions ? ). A host of accessories available mainly aimed at camping. 10 year free internet access. 360° camera with full dashcam type recording on all 4 cameras when driving ( if that is what this means ): Sentry mode. Supports up to 240 kw DC charging. The versatility of the rear end is definitely impressive, if you are into camping !! Not for me but i do recognise the technology advances and the gadgetry is no doubt going to attract a crowd at the Show. -

BYD, amongst others, don’t release the booking figures until after the show is finished.
