  1. My grandson is staying for the holiday season, so I took him to the Mall to buy some things and play in the game's arcade. The games were always operated with little token coins. You go to the machine, put in 100 baht and you get 10 or 11 coin tokens. Now this simple system has been replaced with electronics. Okay, go to the machine with its digital screen. No English option. No problem, I read and speak enough Thai to go through a registration process. Wait. A registration process? Yes. Now you need to register your personal information and get an electronic card to play on the game machines. Okay. Pay with credit card, no thank you. Pay with cash. It needs 20 baht deposit. Fine. Next screen. Type my name and phone number on the digital keyboard. Okay. Put in my 20 baht note. It spits it back out immediately, landing at my feet. It literally threw the money on the ground in front of my feet. Okay, put it in again, no. Turn it over, no. Try another two 20 baht notes, exact same. Press cancel. Tell the machine to go <deleted> itself. And tell the grandson we'll play on his Nintendo Switch when we get home. What was wrong with the simple coin tokens?
  2. I'd have gone to the bin liner section to prepare for load up.
  3. Damn Muslim Nazis of Europe 80 years ago. Transporting, medically experimenting and exterminating millions and millions.
  4. At least the police didn't hack off her arms above the elbow with a machete. Like the rejected policeman in Kanchanaburi.
  5. There sure are. As I found out on my first ever night in Thailand.
  6. Free insurance. Exit tax is now 50,000 Baht.
  7. Moved to Mahidol road, just past the 106 junction on the way to the airport.
  8. Or the IO makes it so difficult with extra demands for documents that cannot be procured in order make money off an agent.
  9. Don't offer an IO directly. It can cost you a lot more than 20k.
  10. It's not higher for foreigners! It's less for Thais.
  11. Posters that say his arrest is bad obviously have no problem with illegal immigrants in their country.
  12. And if closed can leave it at the temple for the monks to safeguard.
  13. Apparently she went to the police. But they were charging 900 per day.
  14. The model is more than2 years old. My son had one then upgraded to the 14 model. He works. His money. Up to him. I'd still have a Nokia if I could understand how to use a phone or if I could tape it to my forehead in order not to forget it somewhere.
  15. Brave Thai soldiers. For at least one week until it's been documented, published, then redistributed
  16. It's hard to understand that the parents would not have clues that their 10 year old son is being repeatedly anally raped by an adult male.
  17. I guess it isn't an emergency fix or die situation, like faulty brakes, and a faulty knock sensor will be okay to drive for a while as we research it.
  18. They reported that a new knock sensor is around 3xxx THB.
  19. They said they need to investigate why the knock sensor is bad, and it would take 1-2 days to do this. They look cheap online, less than 1000THB.
