My mobile is 6 years old. Searching online, I can't find any cases to match what I bought originally. Now the case is about to break - the magnetic strap on the right side is close to breaking. The main requirement, apart from size, is the position of the slot in the back for the camera. So, where to find a mobile phone shop specialising in cases or covers - including 6 year old phones? (Yes, I will be getting a new phone soon.)

Agreed. ????

I usually go for "Fish and Chips" at my night's out in Chalong Bay's "Klong Beach" bar. I've little idea what the fish is, but probably a "snapper" of some kind. But it tastes good - close enough to cod for me.

Brilliant! ☝️

I got my extension renewed at the end of April this year, without health insurance. My current extension ends May 2023. My original Non-OA was issued before 2017 (well before!) and I've had continuous retirement extensions since. I would like health insurance, so if anyone can recommend a good one (doesn't have to be cheap), I would appreciate it.

Brilliant, thanks!

I'm not too familiar with where Honda used to be. Do you have, say, Google Earth coordinates? I've also searched for "New Wine Pro south Phuket" without luck. Even the Wine Pro Facebook page doesn't mention it.

I wouldn't mind COD only! Is it possible to set that as default on my Shopee account? I don't use a bank account for online purchases. I use a Kasikorn Bank "Shopping card". It's "virtual", not a real piece of plastic - they sent me the card details (it's a VISA number) and it works on Lazada and AliExpress. The card has just a few thousand baht in it, so I'm not too worried about being hacked. I've used it in the past on Shopee, but always on my Windows 10 PC at the Shopee website, so I don't know why it has stopped working now. Here's the screen displayed while I'm waiting for the OTP on my phone. There's nothing personally identifiable there (I blacked out the card no.): It may be just this store that has a problem. I'll try buying other stuff to see if the card works elsewhere on Shopee. If not, I'll try to set up COD as default, or I'll have to pay a visit to the bank.

Thanks so much! Now that it's in English I checked that the "Bank Accounts / Cards" setting is correct and "My Addresses" is correct. I also set my Birthday to the correct date but, after trying to save the change, I got the same "loading" message with rotating white circles. I aborted that and tried to pay using the mobile, but no OTP received. So I reckon it's because my phone is very old running an old (v6.0.1) Android..

I can't get an OTP message when buying on their website using my Windows 10 PC (I used to get them), so decided to install the app on my phone. But it's in Thai. And after "signing in" with the username and password (that works on Windows) I get a black square with rotating dots and the word "loading" (in Thai) underneath. It never loads. Anyone use it without problems?

On what basis do you say this? History.

That's exactly what I do: - run Google Chrome to play the video on a website - click Windows+Alt+R to start and stop recording the whole screen - use AviDemux to: - edit the recording to retain only the video (crop off the unwanted Chrome page surrounding it) - change format to 16:9 - reduce size, usually to 512x288, which is still 16:9.

A thai girlfriend would love to take care of you. I'm afraid that, at I my age, I wouldn't know what to do with her either. ????

Sorry, I should have said "my net worth" has increased by 50% (roughly) - that takes into account all the money I've spent while living here for 20 years.

A Michael Mann film: Collateral - Tom Cruise, Jamie Foxx Another great film from the last two decades that I've missed while living in Phuket. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0369339/

I use AviDemux (2.8.0) for most jobs. http://avidemux.sourceforge.net/

Congrats at getting to 75! A few years (not many) away for me! ????

I leave it all up to my financial adviser. I'm worth 50% more now than when I arrived here nearly 20 years ago. Don't know what to do with it all. ????‍♂️

Just watched Panic Room, again, with Jodi Foster and Kristen Stewart ????. I'd forgotten how good it was.

My thanks to the mod who moved my post to this thread, which I didn't know existed. ????

No kidding, he looks exactly like a friend of mine who has been happily living with his Thai lady for years. I'll send him and a few friends a link, just for a laugh!

Looking forward to the new James Bond film, recently announced: ????
