  1. When you get the Easy Pass, also register for the m-flow - then you can pay/top up through the one easy pass card from your bank app.
  2. To London:- EVA is direct and good. Finnair is also an option via a quiet and calm Helsinki, and around 120k bht return - in their new funky seat.
  3. Here's hopefully some useful info. Do NOT buy an Android box - cheap and worse than that https://techcrunch.com/2023/05/18/popular-android-tv-boxes-sold-on-amazon-are-laced-with-malware/ and worse is usually they are running some version of android rather than Google TV - so interface will be rubbish for the usual type of tv remote (most of those Android boxes will require an 'air' remote to be usable...), on top of the underpowered chipsets used in them. Buy the "Chromecast with Google TV 4k" (you can check it also from Google itself) - easily avaliable Shopee etc for about 2000bht. this actually has the proper Google TV software. you can easily install a VPN app if needed, and i'd recommend Tivimate (or TVSmarters) for an IPTV app. For Tivimate best to go into Settings>General>User-Agent and set it to "VLC" just in case to prevent nay problems with your stream provider. ps Smarttube is also useful as an alternative to the usual youtube app for reason you'll quickly find out. pps an App called Button Mapper is good too - remap the Google remote Youtube button to SmartTube and remap the Netflix button to Tivimate, for example. ppps if you use an iPhone then install the Google home app, and you can connect that to the Chromecast box for data entry etc from your phone rather than faffing with the onscreen keyboard
  4. It's not so much as needing an alternative to Kindle (Kobo is an option), but to take control & download your books - my advice is to use an app called Calibre. https://calibre-ebook.com/about You can check on MobileRead forums and elsewhere how excellent & trustworthy it is. Download your ebooks after purchase, and then you will have a copy of your book under your control.
  5. No - both the Withings BPM connect and a new Omron are on the arm device - wrist ones are npt recommended at all. Omron Evolv is their equivalent.
  6. There are newer Omron and Withings blood pressure monitors that don't have the tubing - a one piece item that also logs your readings to your phone. Withings BPM connect is good and on Shopee for about same price as Amazon US https://shopee.co.th/Withings-BPM-Connect-Blood-Pressure-Monitor-i.71913621.7556898484?sp_atk=76487996-363a-46b4-bc27-d814043670c5&xptdk=76487996-363a-46b4-bc27-d814043670c5
  7. Available at many district medical centres the wife says... We went for our booster (Pfizer) a couple of weeks ago at the Bangkok Youth Centre Thai-Japanese at Din Daeng as it's fairly close to us. Free and well organised - I think it's only weekends at that location google "Bangkok thai-japanese youth centre" and you'll get it if that's handy for you (Din Daeng and Rama 9)
