If your worried about infection thru the eyes wear eye/sun glasses

Sorry, but airborne viruses blow around in the air and can "float" in from the side of glasses, which is why medical staff wear goggles or face shields, not glasses alone.

yes, but having glasses on is better then not having them on. its also better then nothing.

its all about damage contE ol, not 100% containment. if you do npthing and hold out for a perfect solution it does not help you if you cpntract something while your still shopping for that perfect mask.

did you pass gas? sounds funny, but i do that on occassion in an empty isle and almost invariable someone comes down the isle in a hurry right when the bomb is hitting. i have learned to brush it off and put it down to bad timing, or karma.

This is a good idea......Close down 100%.....And pay zero rent and zero utilities........And if things get good again...Boom.......Your back in business and you have saved a whole pile of money.......

easier said then done.

more likely that owners hold on as long as possible trying to outlast the downturn or running on "hope". throw in the towel at the worst possible time, probably just before things turn back the other way.

by that time its real hard to jump back in, even if you can still afford to.

one of the drawbacks of owing your own biz where you get emotionally invested and attached whether you realize it or not.

I miss seeing all the uni girls throughout the day, even if they are a bit young.

this guy sounds like a perv.

who posts these things? does it really matter?

the city and country is in the trash. no need to worry about it until this thing blows over. i do have some other topics to discuss to fill some page space if needed.

UK government spokesman was asked at a press briefing could people start booking their summer holidays.

He reminded the questioner that unless absolutely essential UK citizens should not travel abroad.

Beginning to feel that we are living in a giant prison camp.

pandemics can goto martial law, especially if the social order gets disturbed. we are seeing that around in some places as frustration grows with the lockdown.

your rights go out the window with this sort of stuff. its that serious.

so get back in your room and stop causing problems. also, no visitors allowed and stop looking out your window at your neighbors wife.

go drink a coconut shake, you will lose weight, and its healthier for you, fatty.

checks have not gone out yet, only direct deposit

drink a banana shake, its healthier

You've got almost no chance. It's no different in Thailand than in Europe or the US: Sports models are almost never on display and they are for back order only. You may find a 114060 Submariner or something similar if you are lucky.

 

Pepsi's, Batman's, Hulk's, James Cameron's, etc - never seen one in stock. And why would they be when they are worth more on the grey market than they are in the ADs?

what do they do then, just hand you a catalog or refer you to the website?

taxi guys will try to drive u in circles. avoid and take grabs whenever possible.

It absolutely disgusts me and fills me with rage the stupidity that comes out of the authorities mouth and their feelings towards westerners. Who are they to say anything about anyone of any race from any country that comes here to spend money. Thailand has absolutely nothing more to offer than any other country in SE Asia that has beautiful beaches. These people and their so-called authority are a disgrace to the country and the people of the country and their religion. A religion that teaches tolerance and acceptance for everyone is being completely ignored. My message and advice for you is to lose the deplorable attitude and be grateful that everyone comes here no matter what their race or religion is or the color of their skin. Live by the motto "the rest of the world doesn't need Thailand - Thailand needs the rest of the world".

good try, but no cigar or patatoe.

the country is catered to a certain drive much more then others. thus, the powers that be can get away with much more figuring people will always return.

if that catering shuts down like it has now, its goodnight for bozo.

...but its nothing a long vacation in a german hotel wont fix ????

my advice, dont look up and stare at it

insurance during a pandemic? unlikely to approve

Did you read the OP?

Not all are shutting. Those remaining open are not noticeably cheaper than before the crisis.

 

probably more like asking price or shut down.

maybe an insignificant discount if you grovel and ask, but thays more of just a social lubricant.

try drinking some coconut water, you may lose a few pounds

It doesn't block access to your eyes, and that, IMO, is how most people will contract the disease, when they get the virus on their hands, and rub/ wipe their eyes- something most of us do, often without even thinking about it.

true, but its better to have your nose and mouth covered and your eyes uncovered, then to have all three uncovered.

if your wearing a facial shield, its still better to have a mask on then to not have one on.

If not coughing or sneezing and stay away from others how exactly will one be infecting others by not wearing a mask?

 

touching things after you have touched your face

Yes we do have a bit of a rep for our brekkys, especially our Superman or Chicken Fried Superman Brekkies.  Hope to see you soon to say Thank You for the compliment.

i hope you dont serve up those american brekkies with the hot dogs for sausage. i hate those.

And where are the facts to back up your statement?

 

How do you sanitize yourself after you touch the mask? How are you disposing of the mask and how often are you changing the mask?

where is the evidence that its harmful?

it blocks access to your nose and mouth via your hands. you can take it off without touching your nose or mouth.

better then nothing.

so the virus is still just some conspiracy theory, unlikely.

in many countries if you dont comply they just grab you, if you resist your hands are tied.

they may want to try this, or maybe there was not enough support there.
