Krungsri Bank Daily Limit Transaction Change By Them
My Krungsri account has required facial recognition for transfers greater than 50,000 for over a year now. As others have said - it is a PITA. I hate looking (more) like a fool nodding and blinking at my phone - so multiple under 50k transfers is my preferred option. They have not changed my daily limits. Kasikorn - OMG! - I opened an account with them at the time that Wise transfers could only be 50K to Krungsri (now it is back to 1.5mill). They have notified me of multiple daily limit changes, and I also had to set up facial recognition with them. I tried online to increase my transaction amount limit - no can do. I went to my branch and spoke to the bank manager - who told me 'no can do for non-Thai' . Not sure if this is actually true - i am suspecting it is horse manure - just a bit too difficuIt . The only benefit of the K Bank account is that it is very easy to pay PEA. I will slowly drain the account paying my electricity for the next 5 years or so!

Which bird is most annoying??
The Koels are loud and annoying at times at our place - both day and night. The sound of the “bouncing ball” Nightjars early in the night can get a bit tedious. The Coppersmith Barbet sounds good to me - maybe because they are uncommon in our area. I LOVE the sound of Hoopoes in the morning. (Not the smell of napalm) ,

Safest seafood to eat
The only time I have had food poisoning here was at a Thai BBQ restaurant. It was totally my fault. Somewhat drunk, I mixed up my cooked and uncooked squid. That will do it for you!

Cold spell in Thailand, what's your REAL temp now?
Yes - the last few weeks have been quite cool, and we had rains until mid November. Now we will have no rain until April or May, and the temperatures will ramp up from mid Jan. A few years ago we had a spell from Jan to late March where every day was above 38. Too bloody hot!

Cold spell in Thailand, what's your REAL temp now?
Just out of Kanchanaburi - a chilly 22’ as we speak - should hit about 30 today. Perfect temperatures!! Not too hot - so can get a bit of work done around the farm.

A lot less than before. So many rubbish threads from the usual suspects. The place has gone downhill a lot over the last few years. sorry if I am offending the admins.. truth hurts,

The Ashes
What a demolition by Head! The Poms will need to do a bit of soul-searching after this loss. Effectively 100 in the lead with 9 wickets in hand - then 5 hours later - all over roverl

Spider
It looks like a decomposing Huntsman Spider. They are not considered dangerous, but could give a painful bite. They are defensive rather than aggressive, and will run away and hide rather than confront you.
