I like to have the freedom to travel by car in my aged-retirement and that’s means owning a car in my name. Can’t do that in Vietnam.

Agree about laying back and using an immigration agent. Rather than dropping 800k into a little or non-interest earning Thai bank account, instead invest it wisely in your home country. I did that 10 years ago and it’s now worth close to 2 million baht net after paying annual agent fees. Hope this helps.

From the noms, so far I have seen 4… I liked “CODA” & “Don’t look up”. Was not impressed with “The Power of the Dog” & “Dune” Yes agree, “Finch” was a notable omission, as was “Last Night In Soho” - best music track ever! No pick yet for the Oscar. Watching another 4 over the few days. BRB…

Ah yes, of course, of course!

Agree, no big deal. Agree, just start over again. But not so sure about “cannot”. If one is game enough, could they not securely post (or give to a visiting friend/family member) their passport to their reliable Thai-based visa agent maybe ???? ? Would never do it (!), but just challenging the “cannot” advice.

Says the “Pattaya Bottoms” trawler ????????????

By your own admission you know all about where “bottoms in Pattaya are welcome”. So stay there …. and enjoy your bottoms!

Thanks but am already fully aware of the grey girls and other ‘ladies of the night’ out and about during the day in high-end shopping malls. Not hard to spot those ones.

Really? Why not??

I meant to say “desktop gadgets” in the title, not “screensaver”. Apologies for the confusion ???? To clarify… the screensaver has been down disabled. Looking for any useful gadgets to leave running on the desktop (rather than bury the old laptop in a drawer somewhere). Some members have suggested a few already - thank you to them again.

Ok will do. But please first ask your mates at Nana Plaza to open daytime! - as stipulated in title

Thanks but Pattaya not in BKK ????

Thanks but NP have no HiSo’s and is not open daytime????

So far none have wanted to marry me ????‍♂️, so I must keep trying. Need more locations to let them see me. Have tried the high-end outlets at: EmQuartier Central Embassy CentralwOrld Emporium Siam Paragon Icon Siam Gaysorn Village Central Chidlom Any where else? ????

As showing, I presently use mine to permanently display: a large analog clock, a digital clock for day of week & DD/MM/YY, a battery level indicator and an auto-refreshing app that shows current outside air temp, air quality, humidity and wind speed. Am looking for more useful widgets to load. (I can fit more by adjusting size of the analog clock). Any other “clean” suggestions!? (Not interested in live share-market feeds, other time zones nor TVF message alerts ????)

Any good “cinema experience” movies now showing? (As opposed to watch at home stuff).

Agree. I just like a puzzle to enjoy with an early morning coffee, not completed before it’s even brewed ????

OUIJA is good but I prefer ADIEU, difference being the (more popular?) D and E are working for me, instead of your (less popular?) J and O !

I only started playing it a week ago. Unfortunately it’s too easy and I am not good at other word games such as crossword puzzles. Pic confirms I’ve solved it twice on my 3rd guess. Can’t understand why such an easy game is so popular ????‍♂️, but like so many others, I still enjoy it!

Asoke, Bangkok by far! - after having lived in/visited all parts of the country. BTS, MRT, Terminal 21, Soi Cowboy outside my front door. Loads of variety and things to do in BKK. Having a vehicle allows quick access to many coastal and island locations. Airport close-by for direct flights to '000s of international destinations (post-covid restrictions).

No need to waste your time talking with the merchant (AA). Simply show evidence of them not providing the service to your credit card provider and they (the CC p) will reverse the transaction.

Most famous racehorse? Phar Lap - from New Zealand. National emblem? Kangaroos - shot and fed to dogs. National anthem? (that many want): Waltzing Matilda - about a homeless person stealing sheep.

Olivia Newton John - born in UK Most famous male actor? Russell Crowe - born in NZ Most famous female actor? Nicole Kidman - born in USA Most famous food? Pavlova - from NZ Any more…

5 years of driving Chaiyaphum to BKK and back. Stopped at check points nearly every trip: Thai licence shown, smiles exchanged, passport never asked for.

Seen the show, really enjoyed it. If you want to discover some fantastic, hidden BKK entertainment, dining, music and drinking experiences (without tourists and sexpats), then this professionally made doco is for you. The mongers will not enjoy this show, they will need to stick to the amateur YouTube “docos”.
