I always mispronounced it, until I saw a YT'er from Germany doing a kebab vid, and good luck finding something similar here:

Don't let you dogs/pets run free if you notice them spraying chemicals. My dog got a slight poisoning and thankfully recovered. Simply by the idiot a couple lots down spraying weed killer along the road, under the barbed wire fence. A warning sign would have been nice, as well known I walk my dog along there, for her evening Ps. Took her to the park for land mind dropping, this at a rental, to avoid land mines on neighbors front areas.

and does anyone pronounce it correctly here? Actually it's called a spit, it's the motion/rotation that is called 'Döner'

Yes, and when the rest of the car can't keep up with the battery pack, it would be a fine addition to our solar system. Phones have peaked on what they can do. Just a better camera, if willing to pay. Phones have peaked on new abilities so much, that now they make the battery not user friendly, so have to replace the phone, simply because the battery no longer holds a charge. Main reason I upgraded my last 2 phones. Couldn't find replacement batteries. AND ... give you a 'fast' charger, to kill the battery faster

Another wait & see news-blip Anticipation builds like the next superhero movie ... not. Who cares ? Let's see the blackmail sex-tape collection. Even that wouldn't be interesting. Do you really want to see fat old men with young gals. Like it's not everywhere on the internet already. I'm still trying to get the image of bill, monica & cigars out of mind You're Welcome ...

Yep, nothing but distractions for the bigots to contemplate, while their purchasing power along with their freedoms dwindle. On topic ... no savvy business is going to go too woke, as majority of customers, especially older non overly woke folks, still make up their customer base. That majority is also dwindling fast .... on paper anyway, as it's in style to identify as anything but white cis ? My issue would be avoiding companies that put diversity in front of experienced workers, such as the one airline announcing... Diversity being a priority in hiring pilots ... hmm, not sure I'd fly them. Best vs ethnic or gender quotas ... UP2U Don't care your politics, give me best quality for best price. Don't care who sells it, makes it or where it comes from.

There profit margins increases greatly if ordering the meals. Which I never do, when I do indulge my Whopper fix. Better to spend the extra on the extra meat patty, then it tastes like a burger, instead of a salad w/meat.

The weekly TAT challenge to increase #s. Followed by next weeks news- blip of increased tourist arrivals. Rinse & repeat ...

Then don't complain when strolling around with hubby, and he looks like he slept in his clothes and just rolled out of bed. I don't have that problems, since I live in a magic house:

Maybe the Russian tourist bashers, should direct their ire to the British tourist, as seem to make the headlines a bit more. A bit concerning considering they're supposedly out numbered here by them pesky Ruskies. Just an observation. On topic ... perp no too gun savvy. Or POS gun ... drop the mag out of it

Good idea, but can't say I've ever noticed anyone taking advantage of them. Taking a break or grabbing a free bottle water while stretching the legs. Maybe if there was a toilet nearby. PTT Parks rock, and newer, larger Bangchak stations, trying to complete, who can squeeze in more vendors. I try to avoid long weekends, and weekends in general, as simply too much traffic on the main highways.

For the curious, these are just the fast charging CS of just the 5 vendors we're registered to use. Yea ... if you can't find a CS, you're not looking very hard. This is an incomplete map, as vendor apps will show new ones, and ones under maintenance (which I filter out).

EA Anywhere also at Bluport Mall/Hua Hin, and one of the first CS that I've noticed, beyond MG's network. Recent O&As and they've extended there network way beyond BKK area. Have yet to use one though EA Anywhere network on Charge Loma app

After 30-40 yrs of working, some equity should have been built up. House paid off, if sold, should fund a nice 800k/oops fund in TH. Especially with housing prices today or last 5-10 yrs. Not so easy today starting out with inflation & housing prices, but we should have bought our houses in the 70s & 80s. Have you kids between 20-30 yrs old, and they are out of the house around 50 yrs. Gives you 15 ish years to plan your retirement. 800k = 18.3k GBP or 23.2 USD ... my car cost more. On topic ... BigMac meal must have been a promo, 160 is way too cheap, as just the price of the burger.

When does flying to TH for a holiday = poor Poor people steal food, necessities. Scum steal anything.

yes

21 is actually a low daily number for TH, as is the average of 42 or 43 a day. Holidays always seem to have lower number of roadway deaths than the daily average of the year. 2019 average was 54 per day. 2020 ... 49, thanks to covid 2021 ... 46 Actually those numbers sound low, but can't be bothered searching more.

Sounds like most of the members here, who came to TH for the young ladies of the night. Especially the ones concerned about the 'age of consent' Mirror mirror on the wall ....

Aside from possible illegality of short term rentals, it wasn't a good your for tourist rentals in 2020/21/22 and probably 2023. Yet the students still needed to be near campus, even if online learning most days. Initial investment would probably be less, not being in a tourist area, or the need to provide the amenities (higher maintenance fees) tourist expect & pay to upkeep them

weinstien had a working relationship with most involved and surely the rumour mill was well aware of it. The presenter (and not alone in doing so) at an award event made reference of it way before he was outed & charged .... "and the nominees are ... now you don't have to pretend to be attracted to Harvey" epstein was an 'American financer' ... and many may have been ignorant of anything else he was involved in. Not like those that knew or partook would be bragging about sleeping with minors/hookers or what not. If rich, why would you? @50 sec of vid epstein meets Trump, who already has a 29 yr old hanging on his are ... how's that conversation go. "How Donald, what to bang someone younger?" Now clinton on the other hand, known to have no respect for himself or women ... "Hey Bill want to" ... "sign me up .. "

AN ... a new low, and here I didn't think that was possible

I notice no credit or description on the rag photo...poor journalism ... Trump & future wife at his FL resort almost 24 yrs ago, and 8 years before epstein was convicted of sex crimes.

If read link, Trumps meetings were at his FL resort (in link), and he did run beauty pageants, also noted in the link. Pageants would be like a discount candy warehouse/store for epstein, soliciting the losers Not like they were private meetings with no other folks around he/epstein was plying his influence to, or getting from, along with their money.

Exciting new tech seems to be announced every month. Glad I waited as long as I did (due to ignorance of ). As the lithium packs seemed to peak, chemistry wise (LFP), and too old to really wait for any new tech to be mass produced. Great for younger folks, as next 5 years and maybe they'll settle on one type and go with that. Even lower cost & more range, though seem to have something for everyone already, budget dependent. As we see on the threads, EV's viability is linked so much to one's location, and how the infrastructure is keeping pace or failed to. Happy Motoring

Obviously clinton won't surprise anyone. Already known Trump met with him more than a few times, although may have been unrelated to sex. "The woman, in testimony at Maxwell’s federal sex crime trial, did not allege any improper conduct by Trump when she met him at his Mar-a-Lago resort."
