NO ... parents should do more. Parents raise & protect their children, it is nobody else's responsibility. Those that don't, more likely to attend funerals of, or visit them in prison. It's worldwide. In USA, seems parents want to be their kids' friend. They have plenty of those, they need guidance & discipline. Don't know W T F happened the last 5 decades, but society has gone to sh!t. It all falls on the parents ... nobody else.

Same as MJCM, 3 issued, 2 different provinces, on day asked for. Why is someone doing it for you ?

Maybe busy trying to sort out a few issues: https://lemberglaw.com/2022-hyundai-ioniq-5-problems-complaints-lemon/

Installer is going with these. Price ??? maybe 7k baht range, as charging 15k to add 2 panels from original quote of 16, to now 18 panels: https://www.suntech-power.com/wp-content/uploads/download/product-specification/EN_Ultra_V_STP550S_C72_Vmh.pdf

Not kidding myself as I'm: 1. Saving money 2. less air pollution 3. have independence & self control of my living environment Pretty much the only things I care about. More money in the pocket is always a plus, and less air pollution, who doesn't like that. Not seeing any negative, all pluses in my world. Global warming, don't care. But I'm not the ones complaining about countries not doing enough, when they themselves aren't doing anything. I avoid being a hypocrite .... when possible. Yes, EVs are a bit more eco friendly than ICE, and solar better than most grid power from fossil. Not much argument about that. Just saving 1 oil spill on land or sea is worth it alone.

I don't have a problem with it, just don't expect me to use it.

Forget 'Thai roads', forget the law, enforcement, lack of, test, blah blah blah ... ... what responsible parent lets 14 yr old drive a motorbike, possibly without a helmet ? Surely they'll blame everyone and everything ... except themselves. R I P

Paying for a wife ... nuff said. Can't fix stupid

Pop into a Boots or Watson's, should have the aluminum retractable at least.

Does it really matter what Thailand or any country / govt has done. Why wait for them? What have YOU done ? Still travelling international ? Still driving fossil fueled vehicles ? Still haven't gone solar at home ? So you've done nothing ... hmm

The longest & shortest days here aren't that far apart ... 1.5 hrs +/-

DISCLAIMER: Have not stayed there, but someplace I'd consider. On the return to Krung Thep, 6 ish hrs puts you at Nakhon Sawan, so should be plenty of places to choose from. City or riverside.

The brand carries a high price here, as I've peeked, and got a bit of sticker shock. Though admit to ignorance of, but roof racks & such I looked at seemed way overpriced here. Same with Thule brand. Probably explains why I only see them on high end vehicles ... ???? Here's an authorized dealer, may want to ask pricing to get a ball park idea: https://www.carryboynon.com/14329715/cb-727

Tourist seem to be back to normal and not using any common sense. Just looked at photos of the river/rapids/rocks in said river. Only for the most experienced. You can't fix stupid. And how does a properly fitted & worn safety helmet and life vest, come off.

Phuket old town ... excellent ????

On this subject, anyone have any experience making tea with leaves ? Amount used, as I'm seeing recipe online, simply stated leaf / leaves with boiling water poured over and allowed to steep for 20-30 minutes, then ready. Seems easy enough .... experiences ???

Already downloaded, then give it watch. It's OK, though nothing new about it, just a bit different. Didn't see the earlier versions, so can't compare, and wouldn't anyway. People that do are usually disappointed. The usual assassin, screws an op, then protects an innocent. Simply played by different actors you may or may not like. It's a movie, not a documentary. Good for killing time, as they all are.

What is with people apologizing for something they had no control over. Especially if happened before their time. As silly as people apologizing for being born white ... ???? 2022 ... catch up & stop crying about the past.

Going for stylish or practical (retractable aluminum). As mentioned, pharmacy for practical or any tourist / trinket shop will have wooden ones. Of course there is always online, LAZ has more than a few available.

If you haven't gotten it yet, then you must be doing something right. And new strains are apparently very mild, and you'll be lucky to realize you even have it, or any symptoms worse than common flu or cold. I wouldn't bother myself, and simply wait & see, and treat the symptoms, if any, that you develop. All you plan on carrying around with yourself is readily available OTC.

'Woke' ... just another label I tend to ignore. Good for a headliner, and that's about it. Anyone using labels needs to get a life, and to join the undivisive human race.

A fine endorsement for scamming the system ... hmm Pretend to be a resident when you are not to use the services you are not longer supporting tax wise. Theft & fraud ... lovely

There's more than a few people, legally buying guns with bad intent. Here, it's much easier to not buy legally if a criminal type. Don't understand the negative replies, to such a simple and straight forward op-ed. He thinks the gun laws are appropriated, and I have to agree. Being a past gun dealer, I can definitely understand his thoughts of not selling a gun to someone he doesn't trust, even if legal to sell to and own. I've done that myself to people I know, and refused to sell them a gun. If you're large shop, and they have the proper paperwork or able to buy, hard not to sell to then unless you personally know them. They've already been vetted here in Thailand. The cost of legal guns in Thailand is quite high. Silly high. More than enough unregistered guns here also, same worldwide.

They'd call that a 'flat white' here. Don't need anything special to make the coffee for that. Whatever you have will do, just need strong coffee with that much milk added.
