What is a SHA Plus hotel? If there is a global award for acronyms, I nominate Thai leaders to win it.

Hmmmm classy move by the town leaders. Perhaps the penis, when it goes limp, will urinate on the crops. 

Clever move by our genius leaders.....I always expect bars and pubs to be open wherever I go, but not in sandboxes, so if Phuket is now officially a sandbox then I will not be expecting any alcohol to be served in restaurants or bars, so this closure ticks all the right boxes for me. I suspect the owners of 7/11 will be well pleased. Expect Phuket to be swamped with tourists in July 1st looking for directions to 7/11s.

I don't feel any different in my mind and I'm usually shocked when I look at my reflection in a store mirror.

However my body started failing in my 60s with sleep apnea, obesity, diabetes, joint pains etc. I literally couldn't live in a cold climate now and function. I'm 68 and don't hold out much hope for the next decade other than an increasingly rapid decline in my abilities. 

I "registered" about 6 weeks at our mooban. They were supposed to be collecting info on the elderly & vulnerable etc. Have heard absolutely nothing since. I'll wait I suppose as I don't fancy sitting in these rooms full of people waiting for jabs.

Pretty naughty stuff. A lot of needy patients will be going without their medicine due too this totally unreasonable action by BiB. 

Panda seems to dominate in our little backwater of the world. I don't like to generalise but their drivers are <deleted> awful. 

Were they wearing clothes or bathing suits?

....."no stone unturned"....(in the swimming pool?)

We all know that the police do excellent, unbiased, detective work on all crimes, so why should this be any different. Tip from 2000 years ago: cui bono?

Most of the scams I have ever read about involve mobile phone banking. They never seem to involve home based computer banking. I decided many years back to avoid phone banking and computer banking on my Thai bank accounts. I see no reason to change my position.

....like a well oiled machine.....

Remind me again why we are in June and just starting mass vaccinations....

There is probably a dead body in one of your spare rooms which is causing the flies. Shame about the ice cream.

Why not pay COD?

Personally I have had a number of issues with Lazada delivering very poor quality goods which seem to be misrepresented in pictures on the website. Obviously Lazada themselves are not liable for this....they only take the order and arrange delivery, they don't make the stuff. I cannot see myself spending much over a couple of thousand baht on their stuff. 

Overall I am less than enamoured with internet shopping generally and feel with any important purchase I would like to actually feel and touch the merchandise before buying.

On the positive side Lazada seem good with timely delivery, although I wish they would put all items bought in one single delivery instead of 6 deliveries for 6 items.

I swear I Googled caverject and I found the following description on a website among the first results:

 

"This medication is used to treat male sexual function problems (erectile dysfunction). It works by helping the blood flow into the penis to achieve and maintain an erection. This medication is not for use in women or children."

 

really? ????????

Caverject is Prostaglandin E1. It is injected into the corpus cavernous on the side of your penis. Generically alprostadil. It was introduced in early 1990s by Upjohn but was never a commercial success due to the unpleasant idea of injecting your willy.

Normal countries shouldn't have to change their immigration laws every five minutes (or every year). Thailand always seems to have an urge to change its laws. Any new law that comes out will be subject to further (negative) changes in the days, weeks, months and years ahead. The half life of Thai immigration laws is about 20 seconds, plus it would be activated at the local level and each different locality will interpret the new rules differently.

I've never been to Turkey. I wouldn't mind seeing Istanbul before I die, but I am not tempted by the the idea of living in any Muslim country. No thanks. The movie Midnight Express is seared into my mind.

How does this clown know there won't be another wave of variant viruses in the intervening period?

Some bankruptcies in the offing????
