  1. That's not really important. The Kurds do not represent the Syrian government. The American troops are there illegally. They should leave.
  2. Biden should instruct the uninvited, unwelcome, occupying US troops to leave Syria.
  3. There's no evidence at the moment that those children fell ill because of the Cesium-137 cylinder. As I posted in another thread, their symptoms include a cough and a runny nose, and those two symptoms don't seem to be related to exposure to high levels of radioactivity.

    Ads

    I don't see any ads when I'm using my laptop but I get quite a lot when using my phone.
  5. Temperature set too low (20 C). 24, 25 or 26 degrees C should be about right.
  6. The article says the students have fallen sick with symptoms of "a high fever, cough and runny nose," I have read a few articles on radiation sickness and none of them mention a cough or a runny nose as symptoms.
  7. I take a vitamin C tablet two or three times a week and a multivitamin/mineral tablet once every two or three weeks.
  8. What did you take, Yamba, taxi or train?
  9. I prefer bottles of coconut water to fresh coconuts. It's much more convenient and has more potassium than a single coconut. Edit to add: Bottled coconut water (Cocomax) also has a bit of sodium in it.
  10. 471 GBP for a return? That's very good. How long is the connection?
  11. Electrolyte drinks are easy to source in Thailand. You can get them in pharmacies and the 7 eleven (usually near the counter next to the condoms). There are different types - one sports type to take after exercise and one aimed at people who have vomitted or had diarrhea. The main ingredients are the same (potassium and sodium) but the sports style drink has more sugar in it. Just mix with water. Cost between 4 baht and 7 baht per sachet, depending on size, brand, etc.
  12. I don't think it has to be a UK card. The amount will be taken from the card in GB pounds even if using a Thai card.
  13. What they do is warm up/heat up the milk using steam to create a foamed milk, so the milk contains a lot of air. Another reason it might not be as hot as you would like is because they are probably trying to prevent the milk temperature from reaching a certain level, probably about 65C. That's because the flavour of the milk deteriorates when it is very hot. That's what I have learned from reading about coffee making and watching quite a few videos on YouTube about it. There are lots of videos on YT about coffee making. A good place to start is with James Hoffman, but there are plenty of other coffee making videos to watch if you don't like his style. https://www.youtube.com/@jameshoffmann
  14. In the 1980s, I owned a Z1000 J2. I much prefer the 70s and 80s style of motorbike to the modern styles.
  15. @still kicking You started a thread about the same topic a week or so ago, which was locked by a mod. https://aseannow.com/topic/1289054-what-is-the-point/ I suppose you still don't understand something about the forum. I am fairly new here but I have tried to observe and work out how it works. I assume you are talking about notifications you get. I have noticed two types. 1. posterxyz quoted you in a topic 2. somebody reacted to a post in a topic In type 1, the poster is named. If you click on the notification, it will take you to the post so you can see what they wrote and you can reply if you want. . In type 2, the poster is not named. It just tells you a member has reacted by giving you a thumbs up, like, etc. If you click on that notification, you can see what reaction type you got but as has been pointed out to you in this thread and your "what is the point" thread, those reactions are anonymous. https://aseannow.com/topic/1286218-reactions-an-update/
  16. Good question. IMO, of there is only one speed limit on the sign (90 or 120), it should mean all lanes. However, my experience in Thailand tells me that clarity is not always important and reading between the lines (no pun intended) is necessary, so I would interpret that as 120 for the outside lane only again. But I could be wrong.
  17. What is the source of that assertion?
  18. 90 km/h is a common speed limit on roads but there are some roads with a limit of 120 km/h. This section of road has a different speed limit for each lane.
  19. Perhaps you could get your wife to write and sign a letter in Thai and English saying that she's happy for your child to go with you on your trip. Make sure she includes her telephone number. Also take with you a copy of her Thai ID card and house book/tabian baan (signed by your wife). Better than nothing, I would say.
  20. Did your electrical guy do something like a "Megger test" to test the insulation resistance of the circuits in your property?
  21. After a quick search* for "katoey", I can confirm that there are. *Purely in the interests of research, of course. ????
  22. Is the OP implying he/she can't find many videos of transvestites on Tiktok? Do you need help looking for more, Menken? Is that what this thread is about?
