    But with that we would have the issues of government tracking or mind control which we hear even with this system.  

    Mind control' AI chips can alter a person's moods | Daily Mail Online

     

    I can see this leading to a chip being implanted in all of us. As if it is not enough that the Govt would know where I am, it's more the problem of Lady Roadrunner being able to track me with an App!

     

    Meanwhile they are talking about inviting Chinese tourists back. Will they get 14 days quarantine?

     

    Make your mind up Thailand, what the F do you want? Can't have it both ways.

    Move to one of these countries, if you are not happy with your pension not increasing. As far as the amount you get, you pay to play. In Germany, they contribute about 20 percent of their pay towards their pension. In the UK, you do not ????????????

    The UK has agreements with some other countries to protect the social security rights of workers moving between the 2 countries.

    These are sometimes known as ‘bilateral agreements’ or ‘reciprocal agreements’.

    So does anyone use the premium fuels? 

    I use Benzine 95 exclusively as my car does not run well on Gasohol. Had the expensive experience of Gasohol corroding the fuel system. Does anyone know if Benzine 95 will continue to be available? It is getting hard to find.

    are you Caucasian?

    you will be shot on sight by the Chinese soldiers.

    Idaho, Montana.

    I had to think long and hard before selling all my survival property and supplies in Montana.

    I had that place while I was living in Los Angeles.

    but in the end Thailand won out. I still have enough cash to get back to the USA and buy a small cabin. on maybe 10 acres.

    assuming there will be enough warning and flights before the war begins. 

    actually the pandemic has me thinking about something i swore i would never do and that is go back to the USA and buy a house.  

     

    Sounds like you are panicking. Cabin fever, or is the toilet paper about to run out?

    They can't wrap their minds around the fact that other races/nationalities exist

    You might as well be an alien

    Thais have never been colonised. You are dealing with the frog that lives in a well, they have no concept of foreigners or the world outside. As for the inlaws, best to live as far away as possible. You are never going to be accepted as a member of the tribe. I would not want to live like a Thai anyway.

    So you have pretty much paid for it all your life?

    As they are parasites, a woman will always cost you money. Often, slapping the money down on the bar works out far cheaper than marrying one of em and is a lot less hassle.

    What tourist would come here if they faced a 14 day quarantine on arrival?

     

    One thing I've learned about the pandemic is that things change very quickly. What's true today, might not be true tomorrow. Best not planning anything until the borders do open and you can assess the situation then.

    Looks like you copied that straight out of the minutes of a TAT planning committee meeting.

    A classic example of a feel good story being overtaken by speculation and condemnation with only marginal access to the facts of the matter.

    And why is it we only have marginal access to the facts?

    Quinolones typicall ycause tendinopathy. Doesn't sound like what you are describing. Overall muscle rigidity is more often down to inadequate exercise and sometimes also poor mattress.

    They cause a long list of other serious side effects and conditions, far more than that listed on the inadequate drug information leaflet. There was a cover up by big Pharma and the FDA. Go Google Fluoroquinolone Toxicity. There are also Facebook groups with a long list of sufferers. Many lives ruined by these evil drugs.

    Quite peculiar that this culture are raised as kid to show respect to elders or grown-ups through al the 'Wai' that they are forced to do when elders show up.

    Then when they become 'grown-ups' themselves, they have so little respect for other grown ups.

    Park anywhere, stop anywhere, endanger others on the roads, throw their thrash anywhere, let their dogs bark all night, makes as much noise as possible with motorbikes,  loud music, with no care in the world about how it might affect others.

    They have grown-ups here?

    Wonder what the penalty is for driving without a license these days? 

    I used to have a Thai licence, but found it cheaper NOT to have one! Just pay the BiB on the spot rather than waste time going to the police station, which will cost more. I will never forget the expression on the Thai policeman’s face when I told him he could keep the licence. Amazing Thailand.

  11. Not quite Roadrunner fast, but it proves the virus is airborne, as I always said it was. (Like all posters here, I am always right!)

     

    What gets me is that someone went to the trouble of doing a graph, even displaying different wind speeds. No doubt another sad case of lockdown cabin fever with nothing better to do.

    Anyhoo, another symptom of excessive lockdown to add to the list “ starting threads about grapefruit

    Strueth, you even went to the trouble of taking a photo.... of a Grapefruit. The suspense is killing me, I can't wait to read of your next exploit and the photo where you slice the Grapefruit just to show us how pink it is.

     

    Excuse me, I must return to watching lizards go up the wall.
