With a 10 minute window, that seems about fair. Just plan to be there early or on time. A work in progress. Planning is everything. Would think people against it would be those folks that don't plan, or don't follow through with their plans, or on 'Thai Time'. Ignorant & arrogant folks will always complicate things ... sadly.

For me, if weather permits, always been sandals, shorts, light cotton shirt. Always dress for comfort, and leave safety to my 'defensive driving skills'. A little road rash never hurt ... thankfully, been spared. Is big bike apparel different from small bike apparel. You go down doing the speed limit, 90 kph, and I don't think size of the scooter is going to matter.

Another she said ... he might chime in story. Drugged ... volunteering to take drugs, isn't being drugged. Raped ... maybe, but apparently, she doesn't even know. May have had a great time, just don't remember. I'd be surprised if police and or prosecutor touch this one, as that's one weak case to win. Hopefully lesson learned if she doesn't want a repeat night.

90% of our eating is in home, and better than most restaurant, and far from boring or monotonous. And social life ... chickies love a guy who can turn out good meals, and you're already steps from the bedroom ... win win in my world. On Topic, I think, as didn't read the other posts .. ... intermittent fasting works fine for me. Last meal/snack, before 2100 hrs, as can't sleep on empty stomach. Then first meal, usually 1100-1200 hrs, so 12-15 hr fast, almost half while sleeping, and the other half, hunger postponed by wife, large coffee, sunrise, internet, walk the dog.

He's one for the Anti-EV'ers, who think they spontaneously ignite, or blow up over speed bumps ???? They suspect this idiot purposely drove his Tesla off a cliff, miraculously survived, him & 3 others (2 kids), and appears the battery pack wasn't even compromised. https://www.foxnews.com/us/california-man-intentionally-drove-tesla-off-cliff-another-adult-2-kids-car-authorities

I also consistently exceed MG's range rating of 320 kms (WLTP), cruising at 60 & 90 kph, instead of WLTP's average test speed of 47 kph. Even exceed, occasionally, NEDC's rating of 403, by just a few.

I'm only familiar with MG's charger, and yes, you can reserve up to 15 mins prior I believe. If someone pulls up in that time, they won't be able to plug in, or simply wait, maybe, for end of that reserve time, and it will open. Haven't read the fine print yet. Everyone we've used has been empty, so we haven't bothered trying. If someone there, there's another usually just down the road.

Sexy girls cooking Street Food - Only In Thailand ...
KhunLA replied to juiso's topic in General Topics
"only in TH" ... you need to get out more. USA been marketing skin & food for decades. Remember my favorite bikini/thong hot dog vendor in FL ... dogs were good also. That was 30 yrs ago. Even having bikini'd eye candy at community car washes ???? -
That's cool ... I'd do the same, but don't think anyone would bother for a slow charge. Have 2 MG CSs, within 5 kms of house, along with 1 CS < 40 kms N of us, and 1 CS < 30 kms south of us.

Seems a bit of a lightweight (5m / 25kg) compared to these numbers ... "For example, length-weight comparisons in captive Burmese pythons for individual females have shown: at 3.47 m (11 ft 5 in) length, a specimen weighed 29 kg (64 lb), a specimen of just over 4 m (13 ft) weighed 36 kg (79 lb), a specimen of 4.5 m (15 ft) weighed 40 kg (88 lb), and a specimen of 5 m (16 ft) weighed 75 kg (165 lb). In comparison, length-weight comparisons for males found: a specimen of 2.8 m (9 ft 2 in) weighed 12 kg (26 lb), 2.97 m (9 ft 9 in) weighed 14.5 kg (32 lb), a specimen of 3 m (9.8 ft) weighed 7 kg (15 lb), and a specimen of 3.05 m (10.0 ft) weighed 18.5 kg (41 lb).[8][9][10][11][12] In general, individuals over 5 m (16 ft) are rare.[13] " --- wiki

If you can transfer data off to something else, then return for exchange. One of mine krapped out, and was surprised how easy the return/exchange was. This was a while back, and they tested and replaced with a better version, as mine was discontinued. Why I stick with SanDisk. No failure since, and think I have 3 larger externals. And a few small ones (32GB) for cameras

I know from experience, (not sure irrelevant) as I had approval from both parents, and told not to bother. This from the person, at social services, who had power to approve it. YMMV

Simply that, being an adult, not needing parental consent for anything. As a minor/dependent, their parents are responsible, whether they 'are or not', but legally have control of their children. Just wait, less than 2 yrs will go by quickly, then it really is too easy. Beware of lawyers who say they can do ... they can't.

Not Patts ... but topical. Yet to find a better place to shop than Makro for most things. Like Gourmet Markets also, except their silly meat prices. No matter what province I've been to, they've consistently beat Lotus's, Big C, FoodLand, VillaMarket, to the point, I don't even peek in them anymore. Exception to western offering outside of Krung Thep & tourist/expat ghettos ???? Most of which, I don't need anyway. Our Makro carries just a bit, but not even close to what Makro/Hua Hin or Gourmet Market/Hua Hin carries. Aside from Makro, we'll get some veggies & fresh herbs/spices from local fresh market.

Easier if you wait till he's 20. I tried to do the same (Udon Thani/family services), and told almost impossible. Daughter just last week, with us, put the paperwork in, and done same day, at Amphur Office. Took all of 1 hour, with wait time, and cost <100 baht, I think. She's 23, so her MIA parents weren't needed. We filed a couple wills while there also, as she's starting to acquire some assets, and wants nothing by default to go to her birth family. So if I bump her off, I not only get a new townhouse, free & clear, in Rangsit, I get 1 million baht in insurance pay out. Told her she shouldn't tell me things like that. Bumps us off, and she gets a vacation home at PKK & new EV ... bi-atch.... ... we'll be looking over our shoulders now for those full face scooter riders coming up from behind.

Picked that up today also, along with pulse check/7162 second notice, along with 3 IRS letters; 1. one stating they can't do the FBAR in that office, from 2019 2. one stating they need more time to do 1040, which I told them the 2 previous times, they didn't need to do, as I'm not required to file. Got to be the 5th letter stating the same that I've received, 'need another 60 days'. 3. 1040 investigation results ????, and I don't owe any balance on any accounts, this was for tax year ending 2020 ???? The is one inefficient waste of gov't taxes office. So I made 5 copies of 7162, and will mail back, 1 a week, maybe 1 will actually be received. First time in 20+ yrs they haven't received. From the postings, seems to be a current ongoing thing.

Life's choices ... with any luck, "we'll" just drop dead in our sleep. Maybe another stent or 2 ???? But open heart / bypass ... I'll pass at my age, as just a matter of time before something else kraps out. NHS ... lovely system ???? Medicare is USAs version, for retired & poor people, open to all (retired/poor) and almost free, and have to take you, without expectation of being reimbursed at public hospitals. The drug plan sucks though, and overpriced. IF I can make to the states, then I'm saved ... IF ... and IF actually wanting. As my niece has privileges at a few Philly, PA, USA hospitals. I would need a long healthy prognosis to even bother, if not ... I'll pass. I'd rather watch the sunset here with my dog, kid & wife.

Sheryl usually prices private hospitals. Be kind of hard to spend 5 mill at a gov't hospital. But if you're at that much of a risk, then maybe you should adjust your living location where healthcare won't effect your loved ones. I got few baht, but at my age (if emergency), I'm not wasting their inheritance on a couple mediocre years more of hanging around. Take me home let me die in peace. Non emergency, and I'm on the next plane out to be a burden on Medicare, use them tax dollars I paid 30 some yrs into.

NO ... he was irresponsible and selfish, knowing he didn't have the funds for TB treatment. Should have been on the first available flight to USA when diagnosis, while still having the airfare. Now family & friends are suffering and burdened, when he could be sitting in a hospital at no cost to them actually getting treatment. Probably avoiding the progression of the TB that required ICU and ventilator. His previous tax dollars at work. Immigration need to step up their game and require expats & tourist to have insurance or funds of at least 1 million baht. I myself don't do health insurance, but have a nice oops fund that doesn't get touched, for any reason, except medical emergency. Guessing he uses an agent for visa ... and why I'm against them unless just for convenience. He has no money & no assets, so he certainly isn't bringing in 40k a month.

What time do you go to sleep? (Poll)
KhunLA replied to BananaStrong's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Hour to kill ... get some Bon Cafe ground coffee, use a cheap cone drip filter, warm up your milk/cream, cheap frother, and heat up a Makro butter croissant in the toaster over, wrapped in foil.
