  1. No, I guess she meant 40% to P'lok, another 20% to N S, and the rest, plus any getting on at P'lok or Ns, go to Bkk. Still pretty stupid.
  2. Ha ha ha. Any Brit, or anyone for that matter, who drives a motorbike without a helmet, unqualified and pi55ed, deserves all that happens to them. The British Embassy isn't going to help them out in any way.
  3. Why concentrate on Foreign Tourists. Apply it to everyone as there are more Thais killed or maimed than us lot.
  4. I don't think you can. The GBP must be converted to THB somewhere along the line, so I do it myself, bit by bit over the month when the rates seem good, and make sure there is enough THB on the 1st of the month to transfer to satisfy Mr IO.
  5. Why is Abbreviation such a long word? 5555 And why use Latin abbreviations for example, ie. eg. NB. etc. etc.
  6. No. Wise will automatically convert from say GBP to THB, or any other major currency, without your intervention. Not enough THBs, then they will top it up from your GBP balance. As a slightly off topic post, at 6am this morning I transferred GBP 1000 from Nationwide to Wise = 5 seconds, then converted to THB, another 5 seconds, and sent it to my Bkk Bank account, as long term stay purpose. As always, it arrived as an International Transfer at 14.02 this afternoon. No problems with Wise at all.
  7. Get some Right Guard first.
  8. ONE kilo = 2.2 lbs!
  9. Probably OK for two women, but not two men. Transgenders, who knows.
  10. My bro and his wife want to get a train from Chiang Mai to visit me in Phitsanulok, on Sunday 9th February. On checking online, both he and I did it, it says that the tickets are not bookable. So today I went to P'lok Station and asked, first a young girl in the booking office. Brought up the needed date and time on her computer and said, 'Cannot, it is Full'. Another older lady took me to her window, said the young girl was new to the job, where she checked the same journey with "yes you can book it, but need copies of both the passenger's passports, and must book, and pay for, from Ch Mai to Nakon Sawan, but get off at P'lok. When I questioned this she said that only 40% of the passengers want P'lok, 60% want N Sawan and the rest go on to Bangkok. Hey, it's only Bht 477 per pax so not arguing over a few Baht, but what a silly way to run a railway, eh?
  11. Wasn't Bob's real name Colin? 555
  12. That's what I posted, but with two Ms. It was deleted
  13. Price and photos, colour please. PM if you want.
  14. Just bought a haeflere machine from Shopee for Bht 3820. Brilliant, spent thousands on Lotus and Makro rubbish. French recipe seems best, and this handy tool from China/Shopee.
  15. Yes, tried it several times on other mornings. Still same inaccurate results. I have uninstalled it from my Android.
  16. Surprisingly not bad......it's useless, as several other similar Apps. Said my BP was 181/ 88 this morning with a beat of 76. Omron said 124/74/50 as usual. So now I shall use the 'more reliable device' all the time About as much use as indication when it says that you are driving at 90 kph when really you are doing 120.
  17. Sent GBP500 from my Revolut to my son's. Took 10 seconds. I am due to do my monthly Wise Transfer today. Will keep you posted.
  18. Assuming that he has either.
  19. Wish I knew what RECO meant.
  20. I wonder if it is legal, and safe, to read emails, notifications and take calls on your watch while driving or cycling as opposed to your phone.
  21. My new phone has an App which says it can take Heart Rate, Blood Pressure and O2 levels by putting a finger on one of the cameras. Heart Rate, yes, although it does not agree with my Omron arm monitor or my counting per minute. But I was led to believe that Blood Pressure needs an artery to be compressed/restricted, and then slowly released, as a sphygnamometer does. And as for measuring O2 in the blood...HOW? Please.
  22. Or is this in Scunthorpe? 555
  23. Is this in Penistone?
  24. And as for Premier League footballers? I tend to notice the ones without tattoos showing.
