  1. Only Barclays? What about other banks?
  2. How can anyone leave a laughing emoji on the original post?
  3. Always feels like a shake down stepping in one of those.
  4. One of the biggest drivers of rising gasoline prices appears to be Russia's war in Ukraine, which has gone on for nearly 18 months. And adding to the upward pressure are the decisions by major oil producing nations Saudi Arabia and Russia to cut production.
  5. That's strange as it does not get a single mention on their web site. https://tmd.go.th/en/warning-and-events/warning-storm?show=50
  6. That could be due to the abnormally small circle of people you know rather than the reality most of the real world faced.
  7. Others might be more tempted to believe the facts that come with the interview but both need accepting with a pinch of salt. https://www.nbcnews.com/meet-the-press/meet-the-press/fact-checking-trump-meet-press-interview-rcna105297
  8. Aluminium and carbon fibre..................not much steel. OK, weight is kind of important when it comes to keeping a 'Aluminium and carbon fibre' structure flying through the air at hundreds of miles an hour. This is the whole point and nothing to do with obesity. Knowing an aircraft and loads exact weight will help with fuel efficiency, nothing more. I have been on numerous short haul private charter flights and they always measure a pax weight with baggage with no discrimination assigned to manage costs.
  9. The third paragraph of the op literally explains the answer.
  10. Considering who is on life support at the moment, a rather risky discussion.
  11. Don't believe everything you read. A wise man once said that.
  12. Firefox has always been my main browser, it is so configurable to my requirements and today it runs so well. Brave crashed on my Win11 so thats gone - same happened to Opera - gone also and won't go back to either. For ease of use Chrome and Edge are very slick on Win11, but I just use them when I am lazy. Firefox is brilliant.
  13. I think the idea was targeted at a person who isn't already settled with a family for 19 years lol. There's investing like you appear to have done and there's trading. The latter can be very lucrative using price action with leverage if you care to spend the time looking into and studying it - many free resources online. The benefits are that you are entirely responsible for your own risks and rewards, there is no capital outlay like when starting a business and in your own case no need to speak! Not for everyone tho.
  14. I had good root canal work done at LDC Nakhon Si Thammarat a few years ago, English speaking doctor. Very good. Probably changed now, must be similar dentists all over the south of the country in the big cities.
  15. Thanks for your interesting topic and I hope the visa extension works well for you. I am curious, not having been to UK so many many years, what is this city council accommodation you were hoping for - is this like a homeless peoples assistance? I always thought one had to book in a hotel or bnb if one had no home to their name, but as you say you couldn't afford it? Anyway best of luck.
  16. This story would make a whole lot more sense if you explained what business? A rice field perhaps?
  17. Girl Friends funds? Must be funded by sick buffalo story trading.
  18. Sounds like similar price. I don't have access to First Optic where I am. My lens were Zenni Blockz brand.
  19. Is it common for clinics to offer medicines not registered for use by FDA? Google street view shows them as a small shop-house type building only in CM. I asked CM Mediclinic about price and availability and they replied without price simply: >Thank you for contacting CM Mediclinic. >Shingrix vaccine will be available in October.
  20. I ordered my glasses on 19-Aug and they arrived 1-Sep. The glasses are a perfect fit with clear vision for me across all ranges so I am happy compared to the high street products here. I chose progressives with sun shading and a plastic frame I was familiar with as I already bought reading glasses from Zenni before with the same frame. The frame costs about 10USD and the reading glasses as much again, whereas my progressives cost more at about 120USD but could be had for 20-30 USD cheaper depending on choices. After placing order, Zenni seems to make the glasses within 2 days and mails it, emails about 4 days later with the tracking code, its not couriered so a bit slow. Postal cost was 9USD. I thought in the past Zenni mailed from Hong Kong, but the package seemed to come from Sweden, despite saying made in China on package, and via Singapore. There was four days transit in Singapore. Once in Bangkok it arrives next day on your door. So about 2-3 days manufacture and 8-9 days mailing time. I will order again unless I hear of any better services.
  21. Not too dissimilar to Indian Space RO rocket debris on Australian shore a couple months ago. It's amazing in this day and age countries can set of space rockets and expect others to clean up after them when parts fall off back on earth.
  22. I did that the year before. The queue desk#1-4 said I didn't need a queue# and to go straight to L1-32. But as soon as I got to L1-32 the IO said I must go to L1-27 for doc check first! So this year I went straight to L1-27 before anywhere else, and they were OK with that. Only issue, once again there was no queuing system for L1-27 either so you have to stand mingling around the entrance also, unless like some who used an agent who did the standing around for you . So I without agent stood outside and shuffled in when it looked like a good moment. Overall I would say the online queuing and checking system is worse experience than last year but time taken was the same.
