Location dependent ... Udon Thani, easily 4 months (A. Muang). Many areas in North (CM) and Bangkok may start as early as Nov and last till the rains in May arrive. We get about 2 months down here at Muang PKK, and Hua Hin, easily 4 months. Not even October yet and many areas are registering 'moderate' AQI #s, meaning the PM2.5 #s are unhealthy

I guess it depends what you consider the bar scene. A place that simply serves alcohol w/food, or also serves P4P. After living here, I've met a few lasses in bars, and never paid for their company. But they were Thai themed bars, clubs, not geared toward tourist/expat market or adult entertainment venues, where one would go specifically for P4P. A few gals I met in normal settings, not prowling the bars. At the markets, or service reps while going about everyday living, and no different than living and meeting like minded ladies in the USA. Obviously if living on P4P, need to be in tourist area, or larger metro, that has areas that cater to that market. Obvious choices, Bkk, Patts, Phuket. Udon Thani has an area for. Would guess CM and Hua Hin also have, though a bit low key. Khon Kaen probably still has. Though any area, Hua Hin and north of, you may have to deal with 4-6 months of very unhealthy air pollution.

I use to take this Rosuvastatin from MediSafe (online), 30 tabs would last 2 months as 10mg a day for me.

Exactly, and abortion, along with other social issues, fall on 'state' legislature to pass laws. Her opinion on abortion means nothing.

Sadly, our Solar System has hit a milestone, with our digital meter, installed about 2 weeks after Solar was installed, and almost 25 months to the day, on the digital meter. It broke the 1000kWh mark ... That's the same, as a few of our one month Solar production & consumptions numbers. Took 25 months instead of 30 days. So not quite 'off grid' ... average 40kWh a month, for ~฿130 a month. Damn overcast skies & owning a BEV car. Somedays, you just got to use the grid to charge the car. Like today, since overcast this week, haven't bothered. Then the bank calls and tells you that your visa extension paperwork is ready. Say what, only took 3 days instead of a week. Oh crap ... got to charge the car. And now, charging, as ran it down to 28%, going to Imm office about 250kms R/T. And plan on going O&A tomorrow 🙄 On the flip side, have produced 16+ MWh & consumed 15+ MWh. For a saving from PEA of ~฿64,000 without even considering the petrol savings of what it would cost for 17k kms worth of liters of 91 @ ฿36 (~฿43.7k) Guesstimate would be about 250kWh went to house/inverter, average 10kWh a month & 750+ going to the BEV (car), average 30kWh a month.

She never open advocates for anything ... but 'she's always open and would welcome that discussion' ... her usual 'dodge the question' tactic. She so transparently empty of any policy, it's unbelievable.

Finally ... about time ... ... Honey .... Already has a few 2.2kW outlets, up to 6.6kW output availability. Don't have to do much to run the 'camper conversion' that will be added to it ... Seats lay down flat ... I'm liking it 😁

@johnnybangkok We used to use Camillian 👍👍

I can relate ... as it can definitely get to you at times. And I'm a bit south, so feels like 40+C for a month, isn't strange at all. Even last work location in USA, would hit 38+/- for a month, and humid. Worked outside, and needed a shirt or 3 to stay dry, during the work shift. After a wave of flights, soaked w/sweat. But some folks simply complain a bit too much, and probably should have chose another spot to retire. I accepted it was the tropic, though a bit more than I actually thought would be. Down here / PKK, as Udon had half year on no brutal heat, even a bit nippy for month. Pros far outweigh the cons here / TH. I do the same here, as I did for a few months every year at Memphis USA, when not at work. AC house to AC car to AC vendor. Only plus with Memphis, they pretty much didn't have a winter. Bummer about no show. But living in PA, NJ, MI, WV and it was heated house to heated car to heated vendor At least there we had snow to play in. Spring & autumn always lovely, as it has been here this past week, and next week. Heavy overcast and don't even need the ACs overnight. Actually have to use the water heaters. Happy Relaxing ... in the shade with a breeze ... hopefully.

Did my extension today (retirement), and in the office at ... 1337 ... 1348 ... 1st officer station open (11 mins in) ... 1406 ... my # is called ... 1418 ... done at station, now just waiting for receipt. So, IF, I had and agent, first officer open was 11 mins after arrive (not the officer that deals w/agents) But we'll be optimistic, and say we got next, and no other agents Q'd, as station #6 handles agents. Add the 12 mins, to the 11 mins, and it would have taken 23 mins, in the door, till done .... IF ... I had an agent. All things being equal, and 1st up at the station. 1337 -1418 = 41 mins, so the agent at best today, would have saved me 18 mins. And I'm going to pay at least 2500 baht for 'that service'. I DON'T THINK SO. Had a nice filling early dinner at BluPort Mall for 577 baht. Leaves 1923 baht that went towards a bit of shopping at Makro. I think I can pay myself 138 baht a minute, to read the internet, for 18 mins. You folks that have an all day affair at Imm ... yea, spring for the agent. Went to CW once years ago to get something done ... something simple (not extension), and it did take a good part of the day. So quite understandable, as I'm not the most patient person myself. Happy Processing

Because they are idiots and somehow forgot they chose to live in the tropics.

Not really, as always been crazy.

Have you tried simply pointing the fan at the corner of any 2 walls, or even bounce off one wall to the area you need it. Or any version of indirect air flow.

Finally, someone gets it right. They already got a pass to stay, as entering illegally. Now continue to commit crimes ... and what continue to stay ? Any crime should get them deported. Return and get caught, life on the chain gang. LIFE ON THE CHAIN GANG ... yea ... F'em.

@ExpatOilWorker Down 69% ... source

Great explanation why low carb helps with weight loss ... ... short answer @ 1:48 of vid ... you keep insulin low, by low intake of sugar, short or long, simple or compound, sugar, carbs, starches. Call them what you want. Good explanation on what intermittent fasting can or can't do. It still all comes down to what, when & how you eat. Fasting, with a bit of will power, will simply close that window of indulging. Still need to adjust your intake.

Why not swap out the 'seat bat' for a longer one, (custom made if necessary) that allows you to sit higher. If you like the rest of the bike.

I'm in the belief that insurance companies will use any means to not pay out a claim and high cholesterol would be an easy one for them to deny a claim. IMHO

Chose wisely in BangNa district, as some areas are extremely congested with gridlock traffic half the day.

Why ... you plan on talking to them, to straighten their butts out ? It's the same people that have been running things since the beginning of time, those with the guns (superior weapons), largest armies, or with the most money.

You can't fix stupid ... some folks have more money than common sense. Fine if you actually use all the features of a product, along with product not having known issues, but most buy (guessing) just for show. As other brands do the same or perform better, that are much cheaper to buy & maintain.

If you can't find a place to enjoy walking, running, biking at Krung Thep metro area, you're not looking very hard. Especially on a Sunday, employee & school traffic very minimal. Nice concept though, and should make more areas 'vehicle restricted' when possible 👍

That's not an assumption, just the numbers. Not assuming anything, just pointing out the not so obvious. As was pointed out, you do seem to start a lot of threads, but don't return to comment on. Nothing wrong with that, if that's what you enjoy. As first reply pointed out ... you couldn't get any more vague with your query. Some would wonder, what's the point. You even come back to comment on my post, but ignored all the rest, that may actually wanted to help you decide with some advice. Just a general 'thanks' probably would have been appreciated. But you're not alone in that aspect, as few return to express their appreciation for assistance.

And, as I stated, it still equals <29% market share worldwide, which in my world, is a small market share. Especially considering how long they've been around vs Android phones. You should wait till all the cherries ripen

No zoning law enforcement ? Surely there's a zoning law, pertaining to building within certain distance to high tide mark. Most are at least 50 meters. Example from Phuket zoning, and you can see how the laws are ignored: "Height Restriction Examples (source) It gets even more complicated depending on how far you are from the beach. The laws changed in or during 1997 and were issued by the Ministry of Science on building heights. They made the following rules with regards to height and distance from the beach (high tide mark): – Area 1: 50 meters inland, the maximum height is 6 meters; – Also Area 2: 50 meters inland to 200 meters the maximum height 12 meters; – Area 3: 200 meters to 400 meters the maximum height is 16 meters; – Anywhere else, the maximum height is 23 meters." Phuket also doesn't allow building on a 35° pitch or more ... hmm. Even 25-35° have restrictions. Landslides in the news lately ... go figure.
