  1. My grandmother bought me my first watch with a Roy Rogers dial, when I was 7 years old. I've worn one most of my life. I never owned a mobile phone before I came to Thailand. Never had the need for one in my work or day to day life. I had a landline at in my home with caller ID, if someone I wanted to talk too called. My life has never centered around me needing to be available 24/7, so someone can talk to me. The main reason I have a mobile phone now, is if I'm out and about the wife and I can stay in touch.
  2. Simplicity. I wear my Casio Edifice solar-powered on my left wrist. My carry my phone is in my left back pants pocket. If I want to check the time it's easier and quicker too just look at my watch on my wrist, than taking my phone out of my pocket and powering up the screen to read the time.
  3. That is a treatment and not a cure. Presently there are no medically approved cures for type 2 diabetes, just treatments.
  4. I wouldn't call those water filters but strainers. They have a stainless steel wire mesh meant to trap larger particles of dirt, sand and etc., from the water. They wouldn't remove odors and microscopic particles that are removed by Micron filters.
  5. Mueang Surin has road marking like this. There is one street with white lines around where a food vender parks.
  6. A filter system always be installed inline as close to the entry point to the house or point of use.
  7. Most government hospitals have a Cannabis Clinic. I get my CBD oil from the Surin Government Hospital. I pay a 240 baht doctors fee and a 140 baht pharmacy charge for a 2 month supply.
  8. I got my booster at Central World today. I arrived at 12 noon, the registration table told me the fee was 380 baht. After I filled out the registration form, I received queue number 73. After another staff examined my Passport and my 2 prior vaccination certificates they said being that my wife was Thai, the shot would be free. In and out in less than 45 minutes.
  9. I use both Ultimate Nutrition and Dymatize ISO 100. Both mix well with water or milk, for extra protein. I think Dymatize has a slight favor advantage.
  10. How can you tell that the radiator is damaged with the AC condenser mounted in front of it.
  11. The car is a Pocco, it has red plates and the seller hasn't supplied the registration paperwork yet.
  12. Premier: as a noun refers to the highest ranking government official of some countries. It has nothing to do with gasoline or fruit. It appears you are confusing premier and premium. No it is not. Pres is the accepted abbreviation for the word president. Pres is usually used when referring to those persons that serve in lower governing bodies such as school boards, universities, etc. When referring to the President of the United States, POTUS is used.
  13. On my last extension at Surin IM, I summited the auto-filled forms, but during the signature signing process I noticed the IM officer had replaced them with his own hand-filled forms.
  14. I second. The meds I take are lower in cost than at SE Pharmacy, Bangkok Drugstore and other shops I have checked. They will ship COD by Kerry Express, etc. Best to make an in-store purchase first and provide them with your personal details for future orders.
  15. It's available on Shopee. https://shopee.co.th/ยากำจัดเห็บหมัดสุนัข-En-Dex8000-สำหรับ10-20โล-i.237628505.22640468487?sp_atk=962ccdaa-cf8f-486d-9df3-3948a6049afc&xptdk=962ccdaa-cf8f-486d-9df3-3948a6049afc
  16. Last Fall, I had the MIL's house's leaky corrugated tin roof panels replaced with BK metal panels with sandwiched PU foam. There are no ceilings in the structure leaving the underside of the roofing panels exposed. The ridgeline of the roof runs N-S with exposure to the Sun all day. The interior room temperature with the old panels was always hotter than the ambient air outside. The PU foam panels lowered the temperature inside at least 10 degrees.
  17. If you use the DM airport taxi queue, the staff will ask you where you want to go and they write the address on the taxi drivers paper. I've never had a problem with a driver taking me to my hotel. I try to stay at a hotel near a BTS Station and if I arrive several hours before hotel check-in time, I sometimes have the taxi drop me off at Victory Monument BTS and I take the train. This allows me to pass the time having lunch.
  18. Either turn off the main electrical supply breaker switch or "unplug" all electrical appliances and then check the meter. The meter wheel should not be moving. If it is, you either failed to unplug something or your meter is being hijacked.
  19. Siam Pharmacy's (Ploenchet BTS) price was 2350 baht a box OTC or 50 baht shipping for up to 2 boxes, when I purchased in Oct. There used to be 3-4 sellers on Lazada at around 2400 baht plus shipping, but none now. I have purchased from a shop on Lazada that sells it, but you have to contact them by chat to inquire. You buy an item they list on Lazada that sells for the same price and they will send Androgel instead. PM me for details if interested. Testosterone replacement therapy has been shown to raise hemoglobin, not lower.
  20. Not a genius. But, unlike you apparently, I always read the complete article from the original source before posting comments. It's simple to do. Click on the underlined Sanook at the start of the article. I always have Google Translate activated. You'll find the this quote in paragraph 6. "The staff had to use a forklift to lift it out of the water. Because the safe weighs about 400 kilograms, it is in a demolished hole". The hole in the back of the safe is clearly visible in 4 of the 13 photographs below the article.
  21. If you had read the complete article an viewed the photographs, it would be clear.
  22. No, it was not reconstituted, it was 100% milk as stated on the carton. Foremost stopped selling bottled milk about 5-6 months.
