Try me, or have you run out of AI produced quotes?

Well, one of the points of this forum, originaly named "Thai Visa" was for anyone that needed information about visas etc. was to ask for and hopefully receive informative comment from fellow posters. Of course I can go and try it out but the more information, tricks or tips there are, the easy it can make it for anyone that needs to go through the process.

Re Bar quality is a glaring quality consideration for the most obvious of reasons however, I would venture to say that even more to the point is, the quality of the cement should come under scrutiny too.

I agree on the black heat absorption reasoning and that is very well known. But, you haven't calculated one iota of <deleted>e, black space bodies, celestial nonsense and roofers not having attended astronomy classes are all a bit of a stretch, would you not concur?

Awesome, thanks for adding the Thai script. I would have struggled to understand otherwise. Do you actually understand what you have posted?

The roof is not a celestial object and roofers do not study astronamy. What is wroing with you apart from an outstanding ability to consume more drugs than anyone else on this earth?

Ok, So, what fields do you have to leave blank and what exactly is stopping you procceeding to the next stage. Sorry but I am interested in understanding the whole process, as I guess many here are.

Agree on the biannuals and with a rigorous follow up tracking system to record where and when the inspections were carried out. I know, don't hold your breath right? I doubt that wood is used for framing any more however there are plenty of plastic window surrounds, vynal & foam rubber seats and no doubt plenty of other combustible material used. I thought about the LPG / CNG factor too. but as was pointed out earlier, the fire started in the front 1st and 2nd levels of the bus. As this is a rear engine model, any fuel storage, be it compressed gas cylinders or diesel tanks, including fuel lines of course, would be located much closer to the engine. Only one other cause of the fire that I can think of, is that the truck that was rear ended was carrying something flammable...

So, the drivers are never the root cause or even contributing factors to these incidents? Is that what you are implying?

Why would workers installing roofs have ever studied astronomy? And what is this nonsense about black bodies in space, who are they, ejected astronauts? Please tell me what you are smoking today Gamma.

I am no expert Pinot, however, I do know someone that was in a similar situation and another Bankok hospital was involved, Bangkok Pattaya. The guy I know, talked to them and explained the situation. They just downgraded the MRI cost and itemised it accordingly in their (in this case a different procedure) final operation cost. invoice. It all still came out under the insurance cost limitations. The costing was just adjusted to fit in with the insurance companies requirements. No harm done and problem solved. I don't know what would have happened if surgery was not required after the MRI results were known, I can only assume that the hospital would have made sure that some form of on going treatment was required, in order for them to recoup their reduced MRI cost.

Tell them what they want to know. No need to skip anything. Just put in the information that is asked for on the form and you shouldn't (but obviouisly not gauranteed) have any problems.

I haven't been there for a coupl of years but the Makro on Sukhumvit heading from Pattaya to Satahip, on the right, always had an isle full of all sorts of bags. Might be worth a look.

This eyewitness account "Eyewitness Lamson Puangphu, who was driving behind the ill-fated bus, said he noticed the vehicle descending at high speed. “I knew right away the brakes had failed,” he recounted. “I followed cautiously and then saw the crash unfold. I pulled over immediately and tried to help.” Although excessive speed and unable to stop in time to avoid running into the truck convoy would be my guess. I'm assuming that many of these buses are running CNG because I think it's inlikely diesel burns that intensly.

So, what will declaring the decision void achieve? Will they send him to prison to serve the 181 days that he managed to avoid? Highly unlikely.

For banks sending codes or one time PIN's etc, 2 banks I use send them by sms / text which doesn't cost me anything. The 3rd bank I use has it's own app, which I have on my phone, for logging on and / or sending codes. Line and Whatsapp are reasonably good for call quality and have the video call option as well.

Whoremoans for Trump...

Thai beef certainly takes some investigation, research and trial and error to find something actually edible. The only place we can find some half decent steak is from a local market where we can order a tenderloin in now and then. Have to agree about the Aussie beef, very hit and miss both taste and texture wise. When sampling the imported stuff, New Zealand beef is usually very good but you do pay for what you get.

Yes thanks for that Airalee. That is what I was alluding to, not what I seemed to be focusing on.

There is obviously more to this story than we are being told but, the level of violence in many of these same type situations is just sickening. This sounds like Thai on Thai but it seems any combination of nationailties, when caught up in a drunken / drugged situation and fighting, a much more serious level of violence is becoming more and more prominent.

I fear that some Neanderthals may have survived and that their decedents live among us.

Sunscreen helped Homo sapiens outlive Neanderthals, study suggests Neanderthals became extinct leaving modern humans as the sole-surviving hominin left on Earth. Cave dwelling, clothing and sunscreen may be the reason Homo sapiens outlasted the Neanderthals, a new study suggests. Neanderthals became extinct about 40,000 years ago, leaving modern humans as the sole-surviving hominin left on Earth. Now a new theory suggests that the replacement could have been down to how the two groups responded to an increase in harmful UV radiation from space, sparked by an unusual flipping of the magnetic poles. About 41,000 years ago, a temporary reversal of the poles occurred – known as the Laschamps excursion. It lasted about 1000 years and weakened Earth’s magnetic field to about 10% of its current strength. It may not be winter yet, but the winter bugs are going around Earth’s magnetic field protects the planet from harmful solar radiation and cosmic rays. Without it, populations can be dangerously exposed. Scientists from the University of Michigan modelled the regions that were most vulnerable during the period and found they tallied with human activity in Europe and Asia. Archaeological evidence shows that around the same time, Homo sapiens started making tailored clothes, dwelling in caves and using ochre as body paint – all of which would have screened them from the increased radiation. “Having protection against solar radiation (from clothing) would have conferred significant advantage to anyone who possessed it,” said Dr Raven Garvey, associate professor of anthropology at the University of Michigan. “There have been some experimental tests that show ochre has sunscreen-like properties. It’s a pretty effective sunscreen, and there are also ethnographic populations that have used it primarily for that purpose. “It’s increased production and its association primarily with anatomically modern humans during the Laschamps is also suggestive of people having used it for this purpose as well.” While clothing, ochre and cave dwelling could have protected Homo sapiens, there is little evidence that Neanderthals had the same practices. At sites associated with modern humans, archaeologists have found hide-scraping stones, as well as needles and awls, which were probably used for sewing, but these were absent from Neanderthal sites. Tailored clothing, as well as protecting from UV rays, also brought warmth, meaning people could travel farther from their hearths and shelters in search of food. Homo sapiens also probably stepped up their use of ochre, a naturally occurring pigment comprising iron oxide, clay and silica that has been used by many species to paint objects, cave walls and decorate their bodies “I think it’s important to note that these findings are correlational,” Garvey added. “But I think it is a fresh perspective on the data in light of the Laschamps excursion.” Earth’s magnetic field is created by the rotation of its molten iron core, which generates an electric field that forms around the globe. This magnetic field has a north and south orientation, the North and South poles, but occasionally these poles wander from their traditional geographic positions, known as excursions. The Laschamps excursion caused Earth’s magnetic poles to drop down near the Equator and would have caused aurora to be seen all over Europe and into northern Africa. It coincided with a big shift for humanity. “In the study, we combined all of the regions where the magnetic field would not have been connected, allowing cosmic radiation, or any kind of energetic particles from the sun, to seep all the way into the ground,” said Dr Agnit Mukhopadhyay, a climate, space sciences and engineering expert at the University of Michigan. ‘Prehistoric sunscreen’ “We found that many of those regions actually match pretty closely with early human activity from 41,000 years ago, specifically an increase in the use of caves and an increase in the use of prehistoric sunscreen.” Mukhopadhyay added: “If such an event were to happen today, we would see a complete blackout in several different sectors. “Our communication satellites would not work. Many of our telecommunication arrays, which are on the ground, would be severely affected by the smallest of space weather events, not to mention the human impacts, which would also play a pretty massive role in our day-to-day lives.” The study was published in the journal Science Advances.

Oh, I'm sorry Crying Dick, was that an attempt at sarcasm? You know what they say about sarcasm and wit, right?Sorry, my but my sarcasm meter must be confused by all of the unadulterated drival that it has to filter out. What is with the derogertory age comments, is that your best shot at a put down? I see them often appearing on this forum i.e. references to being old and past it. Hell, I was even accussed just the other day of using "out dated terms". Be off with you, you gelded Cretin.

It has come to light that the young man is an avid Rugby fan. He went into a state of severe depression shortly after finding out that the Wales national Rugby team had just become the wooden spoon recipients in the Six Nations Rugby Championship 2025. He thefore chose to withdraw from human interaction and emotionaly distance himself from his family and country.

Nope. A woman is a woman and a man is a man. Anyone else inbetween cannot claim either title. Easy answer really.
