  1. I did on-line three times successfully but the last two times by mail. Now each time I have the paper version ready, try on-line and if that doesn't work just mail the paperwork. Both times reply after six weeks.
  2. Looks like some unsettled business with the overseers, maybe a score to settle. There are many bars in this area that have been serving wine and beer for weeks already, albeit in a paper cup or a teacup.
  3. There is an even spread among the different brands. This is what you can expect, because there is no "best" beer under the pilseners.There have been blind tests with beer lovers in which they were not able to determine their favourite beer nor their most disliked beer. The choices were no better than what you can expect by chance. So you just believe what you drink. I love craft beers and IPA, but just one.
  4. You don't really need the Mor Prom app. Just scan the QR code on your certificate from the hospital and you will be taken directly to the website that shows you the green certificate. Make a screenshot, crop it a bit and you're done. You get precisely the same thing as on the app.
  5. A colleague of mine took it for no other reason than to be on the safe side and had a cerebral hemorrhage. Don't take it unless prescribed says me (MD).
  6. I just scanned the QR code on the certificate i got from the hospital. This produces an approval which is the same as from the app. Make a screen shot and crop it a bit.
  7. Yes, and in UK too, but other countries also have the name and in my case it is derived from Dirk, a hundreds year old name that also has been in the family for some generations. Polite people (with sufficient IQ) tend to call me Richard sometimes....
  8. It is the name my parents chose for me and that has been mine for decades. In spite of the unfortunate synonym it is a perfectly normal first name in the country where I am from and in many others. It should be clear (but here the IQ comes in again) that it is an original first name and not a fantasy nickname. So not chosen but given. It is beyond me to choose a fantasy name just because of disrepectful morons.
  9. And mocking someone's name in a pathetic attempt to be funny is inversely related to IQ.

  11. There is an inverse relationship between the dB's of noise and the size of an essential part of the (male) driver's anatomy.
  12. But I'm not sure if a tourist on a tourist visa can get a residence certificate. I got mine only after the personal 90-days reporting.
  13. Being pro-vaccination is not a belief but based on a plethora of facts and evidence. If non-vaxers would be 1-2% nobody would spill a word, but the numbers like 20-30% are a serious threat in terms of them needing hospital beds. As they die away the threat becomes less, but until then they cause costs and are a considerable burden. You cannot really compare this with other diseases like from smoking etc, because the numbers - although still too many - are manageable, unlike a Covid outbreak. But over time according to Darwinian principles the problem will solve itself.
  14. My experience is that what they actually wanted is proof of some address other than a hotel or guest house. I live in a condo that is in my wife's name. So we drew up a rental contract stating that I rent space there for unlimited time. And that provided for the tick in the box. Apart from that the visa needs to be OK, I don't know if a tourist visa will do, since I have a retirement visa. But some proof of address may help.
  15. I married and almost all my savings are in het name in accounts that I can use as my own as long as I'm alive (saves a lot of tax back home). We have three condos that are also in her name.
  16. I was in a music bar last night (Friday), three musicians, a full beer list and drinks served in large paper cups. It probably depends on who has the best contacts with the local law enforcers.
  17. Here is where I ordered my QWERTY keyboard: https://www.lazada.co.th/products/i1441140475-s3742126259.html?urlFlag=true&mp=1&spm=spm%3Da2o4m.order_details.item_title.1 You can even use it for other languages than English!
  18. I ordered one on lazada. Pure latin QWERTY keyboard. I have difficulty logging in to Lazada, so can't send a link. But it was easy to find.
  19. I also get many, but I disabled something in their app and that did help to reduce the garbage a bit.
  20. I did the same. It worked well in the past but the last three reports i did by mail. Can take up to six weeks.
  21. Sheraton Grand Sukhumvit's beautiful pool is normally open, no restrictions.
