Reminded myself why I NEVER ride with these scumbags unless I have no other choice. Had to go to Bumrungrad hospital so tried to get a cab soi 11.  Im not joking but everysingle one of the 7 cabs that stopped all rolled down the front window and all wanted a 100 baht. It was bizzare they all wanted exactly the same amount for what is a 37 baht trip......You COULD Have " WALKED " That very SHORT Distance,EASILY !! Unless You've got 2 Broken Legs that is ?? If You couldn't why not pay the 100 Baht ?? Jeezus it's 2.50 gbp OR 3 US$ !!!!!

I needed hip x rays ....maybe that gives a clue why I needed a cab. You always make a fool of yourself like this?

Engage brain first..think...engage key board last. Good boy 

Im a man of principle and money has nothing to do with it. I got a meter cab on number 8. Its total idiots that jump into a cab at any old price. Those idiots are part of the problem!!!

If you are heavy then it wouldn't hurt try a diet. I was on a cane full time and pain with strong meds etc but lost 10 kg and made the world of difference, no cane and no pain just some stiffness and a very mild ache occasionally..still 10 kg to go

I doubt that we will see burning banned, Taxis using meter or bikers with helmets in our life times. 

I guess Somchai wasn't off his face on yaba or 3 times over the limit so he hung around. Dont see that often.

70 isnt so bad to check out. RIP

SUV = me me me

Could just be the drop in wind speed and other atmospheric changes.

 Nope, my bedroom Sharp model and living room Honeywell model are only manual, with high, medium and low fan settings.

 

That's why I have sensors in my bedroom and living room, so I can adjust the purifiers' operation as needed (except when I'm sleeping, of course!) 

It is, IMO, very rash and premature to declare the planes safe.

Almost certainly the cause of this tragic crash and the Lion air tragedy are one and the same, the similarities between the two cannot be pure coincidence.

Time and thorough investigation will tell, it appears that it is something to do with the anti-stall system, which automatically puts the plane in to a dive if it senses an imminent stall, which is fine, if you have enough altitude to play with.

It has been reported that a lot of airlines / pilots were not aware of this anti stall system, which was introduced as a consequence of Boeing having to reconfigure the position of the engines from previous models, which in turn changed the dynamics of the aircraft, the FAA were convinced by the manufacturer that the aircraft did not need full re-certification, using previous certification of the 737.

The European certifying bodies rejected this at first, but were persuaded to accept it by the US Government. 

The 737 MAX series was a rushed attempt by Boeing to compete with the A320 NEO series and possibly there were some short cuts taken that, in hindsight, should not have been.

Apparently there have been changes made whereby the pilots can override the anti stall feature, I'd imagine that any pilot flying a 737 MAX will now be very aware of how this can be done, so sad that it has taken two fatal crashes and the loss of 346 lives. RIP.

automation taking over from the pilot . Something similar happened with air bus crash at an air show. Pulling back with full power did nothing, and the pilot got fired.

I went to bed last night with my bedroom purifier running on low, and my bedroom sensor showing a reading of 2 mcg...
 
I woke up this morning with my bedroom sensor showing 22 mcg with the bedroom purifier obviously still running on low (which now has obviously been switched up to high and thus brought down the levels to the high end of the "good" range).
 
Outside in our unpurified living room right now in downtown central BKK, I've been getting readings of 52 mcg or so all morning long -- roughly 142 AQI / the high end of orange, unhealthy for sensitive groups.
 
It's the first time the PM2.5 levels have been this high in at least a couple weeks.
 
Silver lining in the dark clouds - today's return of heavy smog spurred me to finish some of the window and doorway sealing work that I'd left only partly completed when the air had turned good the past couple weeks. Anything to prevent the cr*p outside from getting inside is a good move.
 
What the heck happened overnight???

None of these countries compare to Thailand. I have been to all of them. 
If it must be european then i would say, pick any from the ones mentioned above. They are ok. But dont even come close.

Bikes dont stop for anyone on soi Buakhao. taxi bikes are by far the worst , they cant stand it when the are forced to go slow behind a baht bus so solution is overtake with speed on blind corners and hope for the best..to bad if a pedestrian is crossing the rd ahead cause he wont be seen, just felt!

I wouldn't bother with my Beer. Give it a few months and it will disappear off the shelves also.

Stick with san mig light, Just 6 carbs a tall bottle and goes down easy in a hot climate unlike the others which are thick and fizzy

15k for 27sqm. ????

I would and make my own and have wild moonshine parties

what model is it

The immigration issues aside. I got quotes from 6 different insurance companies.  All the others won't even write a policy past 64.  The others all limited to International plans.  The cheapest was 700 usd a month. No Thai insurance company would even quote me except a premium International plan.

 

I had several friends help me look.  Everyone came up with the same results.  

 

Please show me an insurance company that will cover me for less, initial coverage at age 66 for less.

 

Thank you....

Right you are all of SEA will be problematic. Cambodia , good for cheap beer and relaxed attitude to pot but poor health care system requiring medivac to Bangkok for serious e issues and the premiums appear to be similar

Columbia has glowing healthcare reviews and far cheaper than SEA if south america is on your itineray
