  1. But.. what did they fee the chicken with? But I agree, a lot safer than one of those English breakfasts..
  2. I am busy right now, but I'll keep this in mind and come up with my "blame the victim" post shortly after lunch. A bit difficult, as I remember the pre-Covid Thong Lor, pee tests and body searches...
  3. This is an annoying trend, and not only banks are involved, Lazada for instance forced me to install their app to transfer from my wallet to my bank. I guess that now everybody has access to a smart phone while only a fraction of the population has a computer at home, so they are pragmatic. I have to look into IOS emulators, but I am not too hopeful.
  4. No need for that get an LTR visa, much better value for money.. and effort.
  5. Just let it where it is, it will die eventually and smell bad for a few weeks. Just get one of those "Dead cat" deodorants from Makro.
  6. Indeed, the most popular good seafood places some 10 km north or south of the Pattaya RLD.
  7. Strange times, I am in Sukhumvit now and many hotels are full and overpriced while a meal at Monsoon cost 30% more than last year. Seemingly the indecent attraction of Thailand will last for ever, whatever the price.
  8. Like most of today's financial markets. They worry me just as much as crypto as my pension depends on them. But indeed we live in strange times where wealth has become a tradable product instead of being a reward for production.
  9. Interesting, when I am looking for a great flute player, I wander around Lower Sukhumvit.
  10. Somehow these shifts and adjustments lead me to think the IQ scores at BOI must be 20 points higher than those of TI.
  11. OMG, with all these Russians Phuket must be now the second most unpleasant place in the world, just after Moscow.
  12. It is indeed, in that it is the idiot (cheap) tourists who are getting fleece by the Patong police, and that for decades.
  13. Backpackers go to guesthouse at 400 THB a night, Chinese go to hotel at 2000 to 6000 a night. Can this subtle hint get your modest brain into gear? And I won't speculate about the often brainless shopping by Chinese tourist...
  14. It is "zero Dollar" only for the small players: street food, motorbike rental, small hotels and guesthouses, motorbike taxis, etc. But any "zero Dollar" tourist will have a larger contribution to the Thai GDP than a backpacker, or budget westerner.
  15. Relevance? I don't want to burden moderation, but these posts don't help to make this place civilised...
  16. Why are these idiot tourists still coming to this god forsaken place?
  17. But Koh Chang is such a nice place. And surely you must have a proper insurance to cover that.
  18. You are not the only one in this situation. All my UN former colleagues have managed to get their ASHI coverage approved, I quote our association's focal point: "The only proof of my Cigna insurance was the very same you attached. I had applied end of September, perhaps by then, and as a reaction to your “groundwork” earlier that month, they had decided to accept the “open-ending-date” version. I am certain, for your next attempt it will be sufficient.". The next attempt is 5 years down the road, but never mind the alternative didn't required any juggling, so I went down the path of least resistance.
  19. Thought that lovemaking had gone silent since we had to wear masks.
  20. Yeah.. Can't eat that sort of obscenity after 3pm anymore, but seeing this video makes me a bit jealous of the guys living in Pattaya.
  21. So must be more than one guy surely, one is attracted by women xor by other creatures.
  22. You shouldn't show sex toys here, this is a decent forum.
  23. By which they make their contribution to perpetuating the corruption of this third world country.
