Hilarious and honest or boorish and bigoted? The enduring appeal of Jeremy Clarkson
I don't find him remotely funny in fact I consider him to be a vile piece of excrement.

Renewal blues 2
You transfer income received in your home country to Thailand so in effect you are sending yourself your own income to your Thai bank account to facilitate your visa extension. It has to be money transferred from outside of Thailand using the monthly method and proof of that is required by the IB.

Customers Complain of Bank App Deducting Money Every Minute by 33.28 Baht
Another blow to the Thai tech 4.0 dream of which we don't hear anything about anymore, wonder why...

PM Srettha pledges to woo back Russian tourists with revived flights
No morals in the Thai government it's all about money and numbers. Allow the communist butchers in free but anyone from a democratic country has to endure the bureaucracy.

Did you know that a Christian organisation has rented a shop next to the bars soi 6 pattaya
Plenty of souls need saving in that street... I wish them well but it won't make a jot of difference.

Delays to key infrastructure projects in EEC discourage foreign investors
Or the unelected senate usurping the will of the people and the losers get to form a non representative government.

Thai Immigration Online 90 day Reporting Disruption
I popped into my office yesterday to do my 90 report, the satisfaction of seeing the IO Muppets actually having to do something far out ways sitting in front of a Heath Robinson IB App. Despite the signs there promoting the so called online system I shall continue my personal visits.

Liquor Policy Committee drops plan to extend liquor sale hours, for now
Governed by Dinosaurs. No doubt hidden in the roses was a large amount so help the DPM with his decision. 300 out of a population of nearly 70M.

Second Bank Account.
I have Bangkok and Kasikorn, very happy with both and use their online banking Apps which are great for paying bills and money transfer. Despite the KTB plaudits I have to say they are without any shadow of a doubt a absolute shambles where I live. Often only 1 teller working the counter out of 5 positions etc etc

Since pre-pandemic: Have you, yet, returned to your barber?
I never stopped going to my barber and at 60 baht a go every 3 weeks I see no reason not to continue being his customer.

New TM 7 FORM
I gave up taking in a already filled in form at my office because they threw it in the bin and gave me one to fill out in their office a few years back as they said it was a old version. I imagine in all things IT related in Thailand nothing gets updated online as they do love paper...

PM Points Out Problems Related to Chinese Goods
That's what happens when you deal with the criminal communists and then you allow them visa free entry. Whatever happened to Thailand is for the Thai's...

Renewal Blues
I apply for a 12 month statement a BBL for my extension, 200 baht collection in 7 days. I then get a mini statement on the day of application, done in branch while I wait to cover the 3 weeks or so between the end of the 12 month statement and day of application, along with updated book and letter from BBL confirming it's my account. Been doing the same for more than 15 years.

Pattaya police crackdown on underage entry at local club
I am not the least bit surprised, on my visits to the same venue and other similar ones, there has always become extremely young looking girls there.

Changes at my local barber.
I feel sorry for you, my barber charges 60 baht and has done so for 10 years. But of course this is in Isaan and not the big smoke or PM2.5

Isaan Funerals
People imposing their western, so called values/culture on Isaan folk really pisses me off. We had a Swiss guy here recently who got involved in a Thai family's funeral because he didn't like them taking photos of the corpse in the coffin. I have seen this many times in my 15 years here but this prick just had to say, no, no you can't do that. Subsequently he's been told to go back to whence he came if he doesn't like it. Arrogant farang with no respect for other people's culture.

Pita Confirms Appealing Suspended Sentence Over 2019 Rally
More mumbo jumbo from the corrupt judiciary the country really is a joke when it comes to freedom of expression. The silly old Muppets who have to dye their hair and can't win a election will do everything they can to keep feeding from the trough.

Power Poles Spark Fear of Fires in Yasothon
Another pathetic example of a Thai organisation laziness in not dealing with a potential catastrophe. If the head of the local PEA office house was underneath that mess it would be dealt with immediately. But as a mere customer you receive the usual customer service experience in Thailand, nothing.
