How do you know?

I guess he married her because he loved her at some time.

Drugs change people tremendously. And some people give up drugs and are normal again.

I think in a situation with a young child it's a good idea to try to restore the situation, even if it is difficult.

If he finds out the situation is impossible then he can still divorce her. 

At the subjective level you are correct. At the objective level it's difficult to see how she could ever give love or be loved.

Drugs not mentioned. It's not worth trying to fix people with serious drugs problems. If she's just acting out that's probably even worse bc of the lack of mental health assistance and understanding here.

We as farang are at numerous disadvantages here. It's ok to toss in the towel. We didn't move here to be hated, shi+ on or made miserable.

If she's erratic and up late, odd sleeping hours, let's everything go to ruin.. could be meth. Often meth users do not exhibit erratic behavior but certainly it's not weed or cocaine lol.

Oh really, what do you want to do or talk with village guys? Daydrinking and talking about the upcoming lottery numbers? The place is a ghost town, because everyone who can, left to Bangkok or another city to work and have higher standard of living.

I could have written this hahaha. This all day long ????

I really don't want to be outside central Bangkok anymore unless I'm on a beach. It's sort of minimum level intelligence for me. The air isn't clean, nor are the streets but I like the buzz and the roving packs of beauties coming and going.

No car, moto. Depreciating assets plus maintenance.

What's good money? Above 67.5 plus bonus?

It will be very telling if they cannot simply add it into the online purchase BUT as they have a criteria - those with work permits are exempt. 

I know of no way that could be verified online prepurchase. Therefore, I believe it will either be

1) all farangi (wp or not)

OR

2) a  staffed kiosk system pre immigration or prior to exiting duty free zone. They will take cards and all currencies.

Please like this post if you absolutely fresh out of fks on this one. ????

Appreciate the direction but I'm in Bangkok. Zenni has nothing for me.

I don't see this as anything new. Up until the early 20's Thailand had a departure tax of 300 baht which was collected for international departures via booths at the airports. They are merely reinventing their own wheel.

I believe it was 500. I don't see that went away.

Why do tourist coming in via air have to pay 150 baht for marine transportation?

 

 

This is an excellent question

The rubbish they are fronting as an excuse (reason) is to promote tourism and vicariously to shore up ???? blah blah medical farang blah blah blah.

There is absolutely no reason broke axx border jumpers should pay less except that this is just a funnel for corruption so in that respect they are easing the burden on the poors.

Absurd

its insane to charge by the word for editing -- every piece of writing has different issues and it can take minutes or days to untangle the mess created by people writing in a second language,  

Truer words never spoken.

Is anyone aware of a good place to have lenses made without purchasing frames?

I'm going to go back to Rutin for a check.

I'm also very curious if anyone might know if it is possible to remove my old lenses and replace them with new ones.

The issue is that they are rimless and the lenses are held only by two tiny rivets each at the nose and temple. My concern is that the technician will destroy the frames in the process of replacing the lenses leaving both unusable.

I don't mind buying frames and in fact if I could find frames like the one I have I would buy three. The only thing approaching what I'm looking for are silhouette brand frames. Everything else has not been acceptable for various reasons. Yes, I have looked on the Zenni site many times and I'm sure a few others that have been mentioned here. I admittedly very picky. 

Does anyone have any idea how the silhouette frames value is in Thailand compared to somewhere overseas? I'm assuming that these frames or at least these types and quality of frames are probably 50% less outside Thailand.

Thanks ????

Is the a raspberry pi group in BKK?? Microcomputer...

Sorry to hijack**

I've often wondered why Thailand doesn't send it's army over the border to sort Myanmar out. This is typically bad news. Drug labs in Shan state been happening for decades

Oh yeah, nevermind...

I don't eat live animals...because they run away and are faster than me

Exactly. The virtue signaler could have chosen his words a bit better ????

What I don't understand is why the entire lot of new guard get together and just say enough and install the prime minister. State it's done and they do not recognize court rulings AND new judges will be the first order of business.

They need to get down to their level and figure out how to deliver a deceive and fatal blow to the dinosaurs.

Looks like a scam.

"Penny stock" billion dollar company. What's wrong with this picture?

Drops one baht = 50% perspective.

"Cables" not necessarily high tech.

Anyone read about this IN Thailand news? More interesting.

How did they ever get those loans approved? Shares and and bonds just a suckers gambit

Thanks, she's based in the north of the city and the school would have to be in that area, so like Laksi/Don Muang/Ngamwongwan area/pakkret areas.

Kaesetsart Lab, Horwang, St John's, Sattriwittaya 2 she might like (girls school, not nearly reputation as 1), Bodindecha. Best schools northwards of BKK.

Not uncommon for students to travel considerable distances to attend better schools.

Rangsit also has a few okay schools although none are top 20.

why eat dead animals when you don't have to? just because 'it tastes nice' The suffering, pollution and environmental damage raising millions of animals for people to stuff down their throats is unsustainable

Well, better than trying not eat live animals.

Why? Because vegetarians are the most unhealthy people I know.

Not a virtue signaler.

This product is an absolute fail. Recent articles show no one wants the sh it and no one trusts the sh it.

Double and triple entry tourist visas were discontinued a number of years back, and replaced with the six month multiple entry tourist visa only available from your home country (or country of residence).

Haha, yeah I think my last double TR was 2010.

Well, that is both good and bad news for him. Mostly bad. It is no wonder why he'd take another route especially when it would probably take a week in some random country. Total idiocy. My guess his financials are top 1% of those visiting Thailand. They moan.

Watch copy sellers - all foreign (S. Asian). 101%. Even the street bosses are foreign ????

Seen the same blokes for YEARS
