    I reckon ..... Spain 2 England 1. No penalty shootout please!

    Nothing like it used to be back in the good old 90s. Fairer prices & nicer girls. Also 95% western customers. Times have certainly changed.

    Should have been a Kasi'cornsnake' or probably an 'adder' ... Okay, I know that's really bad. Have a good weekend.

    TIT ... Not only do I frequently see motorcycle riders forget to turn off their indicators, but also car drivers who sometimes forget to turn on their lights when it's now dark outside. 🤔

    Recently got a new debit card from BB in Bangkok. Staff took a copy of info page & visa extension. I took that as normal procedure.

    That's right. It's okay & just around 40 baht.

    I think you need to add .... but have a plan B ready just in case.

    Boiled eggs from 7-11 are fine. Just keep an eye on the expiry date.

    Had a few 'very fast meters' in Bangkok. Each time told the driver in Thai that I know the distance & cost of the journey as I take it often. I tell him how much I will give him & to stop the meter. They always accepted.

    You 'usually' get what you pay for. They are definitely among the most expensive.

    In a century (or less) most countries will be equal as everyone will be like zombies controlled by AI. 👎

    Sent a letter to UK a couple of months ago. Took about 7 to 10 days.

    Sardines on toast. With cucumber & tomatoes.

    My apartment has a water dispenser. I've started using it a couple of times a week for about 6 months. I do continue to buy water from 7-11 too. Actually can't notice the difference and feel okay. The dispenser looks like it gets 'cleaned' once every 6 or 12 months. Have to check the paper on the dispenser again.

    I take the same walk a few times a week in Bangkok. I know the areas where it's best not to breathe for a short time. There's the garbage smelling area followed by the sewage smelling area by the small canal. 🤢

    Do you still have a Thai debit card? I got a new card from Bangkok Bank last week. The member of staff when she copied my passport info page and latest visa stamp said, "Oh, you are retired" I wonder if I would have had a problem if I now had just a tourist stamp. 🤔

    Never been a huge fan of internationals. Would never stay up so late. Highlights on YouTube will do for me.

    Why not? Keeps staff in jobs & branches open. Keep using cash as an alternative option.

    Where would you get a travel card from, the bank? Is it worth it?

    Just thinking about the poor girl. Awful. 🙏

    Not a joke, but anyone else having problems accessing aseannow? Is it down? I can only access community forum! Been a few days now.

    Yep, a couple of very wet days already in my area of Bangkok. Couldn't walk down the soi last Thursday as it was flooded. This is just the beginning.

    Sept & Oct usually have the heaviest rains, but it will certainly rain in August too. Heavy downpours last around an hour or two.

    I'd say that 90% of Thai male adults (not well educated) probably smoke. I guess it's cheap, & they're addicted now. They possibly think it's cook & manly too. As for me, it's a disgusting habit!
