From your post: "It appears that the death toll from Covid is much higher than previously thought" From your link: "Excess mortality includes deaths associated with COVID-19 directly (due to the disease) or indirectly (due to the pandemic’s impact on health systems and society). Deaths linked indirectly to COVID-19 are attributable to other health conditions for which people were unable to access prevention and treatment because health systems were overburdened by the pandemic." So your post should read: "It appears that the death toll from the pandemic is much higher than previously thought".

The "call" is for one or more trained and armed persons to be on duty at all schools.

Ah, yes! I remember that moth from a few years ago. Very pretty. Haven't seen it lately, but it's obviously still around. And I did pick off a very big light green hairless caterpillar from my main desert rose a few weeks ago. OK, I'll keep removing those eggs and keep spraying with Acetamiprid. ????

I keep finding these yellow oblong shaped things on my Desert Rose flowers. Are they eggs? I spray with Acetamiprid every few days. I pick them off when I notice them.

With the twaddle you read and watch going by what you post on here I would say the only one dreaming is you and Putin's dream to have his "Special Operation" done and dusted within a few days. I'm so looking forward to coming back in a few weeks...

Keep dreaming.

Interesting! There's a Peugeot dealer in Phuket just north of Central Festival shopping mall. And it's quite close to Hyundai and MG and BMW and Kia dealers! Looks like I'm going to be busy.

Yes, it's the Deep Crystal Blue that I'm looking for. I went to the Mazda dealer called "Mazda 4S" in Wichit, Phuket and they didn't have the Blue - just the Grey. Then I went to Nissan, Chao Fah branch, and they had nothing of interest except a 999cc turbo-charged something or other that developed 100 HP. It was only interesting because it is a ridiculous car, and it costs less now than my pickup did 20 years ago. Now to check out the 2022 Honda Civic Sport Hatchback, which is described as Black on Youtube, but looks more like Blue to me: And then there's the 2022 Toyota Corolla Hatchback, to be checked later.

His career as a comedian, an actor and an owner of a production company continues. It is now called "The Government of The Ukraine".

Picky!

OK! I didn't look at that model, but it looks really good - MAZDA CX-30 Model 2.0 SP 6AT 1,199,000 baht - https://mazdacity.co.th/all-new-mazda-cx-30-promotion-2020/ I'm 5' 10"+ D*mn - just noticed - that's for 2020. I bet they don't have it in Blue! Unless I can be sure it's available in Blue, I won't bother the eye-brow plucking / spot squeezing sales assistant at Mazda, Phang-Nga Road, Phuket Town. I felt bad enough disturbing her today as she spent at least a minute looking in a mirror doing stuff, before I said "Sawasdii Krap" which triggered her to shout "Farang!" to the empty showroom.

That's a good idea! I could test drive the grey one and, if I like it, order a blue one from Mazda, not the dealer in Phuket.

I asked her if I could order one, but she said it was an old model. Crazy ????‍♂️

Another wasted day going to Phuket town. ???? So this is what I wanted to look at: Nice looking, BLUE, and there it is on the Thai web site: https://www.zigwheels.co.th/en/new-cars/mazda/3-fastback/price-amphoe-mueang-phuket So I went to Mazda, Phang-Nga Road and was greeted by much "Farang!" being shouted by various "sales assistants" until one showed up who could just about... oh, never mind. So I showed her the picture - the same as the one above - and she showed me the Grey one. "No, I want a Blue one", says I. "Mai mii! Old model. We have new model. Have Grey." Good grief! ????

Yes, that's on my list of possibilities.

My Renault 19 16V was blue and beautiful to drive.

A day wasted today! Note to self: "Check whether the car dealer has the entire range in stock." So I went to Subaru, north of Phuket town, to have a look at the new Impreza - nice blue, not too flashy As soon as I said "Impreza", he says: "Thailand mai mii - not have." WTH?! So tomorrow I'll call Mazda and ask Mr Anuphas(?) if he has, or can get, the Mazda 3 Fastback. In Blue. (I only want blue.)

You may have something here. And many thanks to "OneMoreFarang" for mentioning the years they last. I just checked the "Quality Assurance Test" certificates that are still stuck to the sides of all my APC UPSs: Use Bought TV1: 02/2013 WiFi: 03/2014 02/2015 - bad PC 1: 01/2016 TV2: 03/2017 11/2018 - bad :: I wonder if that one was made in the Philippines. But the good news is... I just checked the 3rd "Bad" UPS, and discovered that it was bought in May last year! And it wasn't "Bad" at all - it was a spare! ???? So I'd put it in the wrong pile of junk in the computer room! I've been using it for the last couple of days without problems. In fact, today the power glitched three times just before a howling wind and heavy rain came. The room lights flickered but the UPSs did their job. And I just got a call from Advice Computers to tell me the new UPS has arrived, so I'll go get that now and put a sticker on it that says "Spare"! ????

I have two: Neither of them can be bothered to run up trees 30 feet to catch a bird - too well fed. But occasionally the female will "play" with one: This one eventually flew off.

I want one! (In blue)

It's a lovely car and a lovely colour. Reminds me of my Renault 19 16V. It went around corners like it was on rails - fantastic suspension. I wouldn't get the hybrid version - petrol engine, manual gearbox for me. (I don't believe in all that CO2 nonsense).

I think you're right! (i.e. there isn't)

https://www.nytimes.com/2005/06/28/politics/justices-rule-police-do-not-have-a-constitutional-duty-to-protect.html Thanks. It's shocking, but thanks anyway.

It would have been fantastic. Not as many complainers. We were talking about the reliability of the electricity supply. Wake up.
