  1. I thought we weren't supposed to discuss illegal things on the board? Visa / extension money gets not only a pass but helping hand every time.
  2. We would take the MRT. We travel light and it's only a few stops but for 200b pax 2 a cab saves dragging the bags about.
  3. Well, to cover all the Biden family conspiracies I'd first direct you to THE ARTICLE
  4. Seems to be this summit was a huge fail. There's been nothing the least bit substantive come out of it. Not even solid declarations, position papers. A good many demonstrators got hurt I'm sad to learn. But which democratic county were they reaching out to? Because there were none. Bangkok lost three workdays for this circle jerk.
  5. It's still mid November. Could we get cool weather in BKK? Sure. Should we get it? Perhaps not for another month
  6. Russians will win. There was never any question in my mind. Purely objective. From day 1.
  7. Best post I've read in weeks. But why did you marry her? Guess I'm lucky my wife thinks I'm pretty clever and with six trips, months in US and visiting other countries she clearly understands the best way isn't always the Thai way. I kinda pity that ignorance although I work with educated people who hold similar opinion
  8. Usually my wife and myself book a taxi from HuayKwang. No wait. If alone I'd probably do the ARL. It's not always 15. Sometimes 20 it's just whatever. I always seem to arrive a minute or two after the train leaves so it's always 15 minutes. I used to work out at Hua Mark and trip out in early morning fine. Trip back was dire even at 3-4pm.
  9. I'm not recalling this clearly but when I had everything transferred I do remember her looking at the letter. Maybe it was nothing to read - she knew what it was. Try doing it in BKK without the letter if on O visa
  10. The problem is her getting out. She will be questioned. Saying she's visiting a bf in Thailand she'll be taken for a prostitute in all likelihood. If she has a degree she should bring it and say she's a friend in Thailand going to line up English teaching interviews
  11. The thing about the ARL is that you can wait up to fifteen minutes and perhaps more to get on the bloody thing. When it was at it's highpoint pre covid it was far too crowded. I think they dropped the two trains - one was local. They should bring it back. One local train stopping at Lat Krabang. And another airport train Phaya Thai - Makkassan - Airport.
  12. Sure it will. Swim out as far as you can until utterly exhausted. Now, can't get back in. Not a great way to go... Drowning Condoms are odd. Didn't care about his health but was minded of others?
  13. A solution in search of a problem. Costs money, prone to break, carry clutter about, probably less than seamless experience. Yeah, thanks I don't need _______ that badly.
  14. I left the Apple ecosystem when the IIci was replaced by the Quadra. The corporation would be dead were not for the phone. Always underpowered and overpriced. Irony, Apple a cheerleader for most closed OS, payment system and control of DRM in the tech sphere. Only PayPal I dislike more. It's not about being a Luddite but rather about safeguarding ones privacy which apparently you have little to none left. And what if that small point about using an overseas payment for Thai transactions? Thailand has digital transactions. Digital money is something else entirely. I'm certain that digital money will have entirely differing issuing requirements and as it's been stated before digital money - you can be cut from the system and disallowed to spend and potentially earn money. Digital money can be turned off.
