Great story. Please post video, especially of the last bit

DeeMoney worked for me. I was in Thailand when I set it up but I can’t remember doing anything that wouldn’t work in the UK. They recently sped up the transfer process to a day or two. 

I have to return to Thailand in August for work and Emirates just cancelled my flight from the UK to Phuket. 

I like your single malt choices. Are you buying these in Thailand? I thought whisky was expensive enough in Scotland!

I use an RSS reader to browse through the new posts. Much faster, much easier to read.

Golf discs

Have you tried the bbc global news podcast, updated twice a day? Or try the Sounds app for live radio 4, which switches to the world service at 7 am. (Neither requires a vpn)

Sounds like the walls of my apartment 

Is it waterproof? What happens if you take it off? Presumably it needs charging at some point. 

Will they use the data to spot people leaving the island (not that anyone would be stupid enough to wear it while they did that) or are they going to be actively looking for groups of people in unexpected places on the island and then turning up to bust up drinking, etc?

Do you know stuff about vaccines? You’re literally <deleted> it up for the small minority who can’t Take the vaccine.  

I would guess that most light coloured Thai beers would be below 20 ppm gluten (like many other beers around the world), but I guess if you’re super sensitive, that may still be no good.

Stampy?

Is teach the right word? Human cells don’t learn how to make spike proteins, they just use the mRNA blueprints and then destroy them, like the mRNA made naturally by cells every day. 

I’m still wondering why my go to shopping app has to stall me with ads and show me clunky notifications about supposed tokens I have won. Just let me shop?

Seems fair, so you can come in (domestically) with a negative COVID test? Can’t imagine I’ll be vaccinated by July. 

Can Thai residents visit Phuket without a vaccination?

I have something Yeelight. The app is junk and works so inconsistently that I have lost interest in automation. Adding a time switch to turn the stupid thing off and on again every night helped, but what’s the point in relying on automation that works 8 out of 10 times?

Most decent hills in Thailand have roads right to the top. And a car park. 

I think it would be a good measure of how quickly you need to get to a hospital. 

A couple of points. Rushing the second dose may be counterproductive given a new study in the UK which suggests that a wait of 12 weeks more than triples the response.

Also, protecting teachers is great but what about all the other staff that help the school run, not to mention the children and their families?
