Nemises replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
He looks Middle Eastern -
Sure beats paying 28 bucks for it in Aus!

My point? Pretty easy to work that out. Hint: Look for the words & amounts displayed in bold text in the first post.

On my own? You are WRONG. Embarrassed? WRONG, again Thais were all eating steak? WRONG, yet again. Eating biscuits? Definitely WRONG! - went there to eat healthy 💪

All-you-can-eat salad bar: Straya: AUD27.95 / THB 600 *LoS: AUD7.50 / THB 159 ( if paying w/- Line membership - takes 1 minute to join up when checking out) * includes free French toast. God Bless LoS.

Expensive? I thought a course of (inexpensive) antibiotics fixes the UTI.

How much closer does the Fusion cut than the next best?

Minuscule agent fees. Never said it was hard. Better things to do with my time.

Nice! But in planes? What do you plug it into on a plane, as the picture doesn’t show a USB connector?

Unfortunately not all hotels have kettles in their rooms.

Pattaya's Pedestrian Perils: Crumbling Walkways and Traffic Chaos

Do you mean like this? (look for the 23 seconds left-to-go, green pedestrian signal at the start of the video) E5426DFB-36FA-4DF1-A1AC-C430B769C4FC.mov -
Pattaya's Pedestrian Perils: Crumbling Walkways and Traffic Chaos

…and the seawater contamination is even more dangerous. Living the dream in Pattaya! 😭 -
Nothing “dodgy” about the Visa agent I used to get a tourist visa to Aus for my TGF. In fact I used them again to get her 2nd visa …and will continue to use them in the future. The agent did everything. Couldn’t be happier.

Yes, Kraft was acquired by a USA company 10 years ago, but as an Australian, seeing Vegemite sitting on the supermarket shelf labelled as a “Product of the USA” just doesn’t sit right. Especially as most Americans who have ever tasted it, hate it!

Australian Aged Pension
Nemises replied to VOICEOVER's topic in Australia & Oceania Topics and Events
2 in 3 pensioners who rent in Aus are living in poverty. Page 3 today’s Syd Daily Telegraph RETIREES LIVING IN POVERTY Jade Gailberger A $2bn boost to federal rent assistance is needed as more retirees face homelessness, with two in three pensioners in the rental market living in poverty, new research shows. The Grattan Institute report calls for the maximum rate of rent assistance to rise 50 per cent, $53 a week, for singles and 40 per cent, $40, for couples. Lead author Brendan Coates said this would ensure single pensioners could afford to spend $350 a week on rent – enough for the cheapest 25 per cent of one-bedroom homes across capital cities – and pay for other essentials. “Australia is failing too many retirees who rent,” Mr Coates said. “Only a further substantial boost to rent assistance can ensure that all Australians get the … retirement they deserve.” Under the proposal, Commonwealth rent assistance would be indexed to changes in rents for the cheapest 25 per cent of rental homes in capital cities, instead of inflation. The rent assistance increase would cost about $2bn a year. The Grattan Institute recommended funding the boost via controversial measures such as the tightening of super tax breaks, curbing negative gearing, halving the capital gains tax discount, or counting more of the value of the family home in the age pension assets test. The report found “two in three retirees who rent … live in poverty, including more than three in four single women”. -
No, because I never answer calls from unknown numbers. Those callers get to enjoy the pleasure of leaving a message - if they want to.

We are there for about a week staying near Shibuya, Tokyo. Apart from shopping, she only wants to go to the snow (for the first time) to take the customary 1 million Insta selfies - not to ski nor stay there. Simply get the selfies and get out. I have skied all my life so I’m happy to also get out immediately after Miss Thailand finishes her photo shoot. We want to catch the Bullet Train. Can anyone advise the closest ski field to Shibuya to suit her purpose? TIA

Not all AC units are designed to remove PM2.5 effectively. To specifically target PM2.5, look for units with specialized filtration or consider a dedicated air purifier.

Good question, nothing noticeable. Probably worth researching though.

I use a % on a ped fan. The % depends on how hot it is as the cloth obviously reduces the air flowing out. I cover ALL of the air-con intake when the AC is needed when air temp/humidity gets too high for the ped fan. As mentioned above by another, the 3M HEPA cloth is over-priced. Lazada has much cheaper cloth options which work just as good.

Thanks, and as evidenced in my photos!

Simply place a piece of PM 2.5 filter cloth behind a portable fan. Watch it turn black in a few hours. Thank me later!
