  1. I thought I read it fell from 29000 to around 7000 in a minute, pulled out and then nosed down again.
  2. careful there ???? https://www.cedars-sinai.org/blog/grilling-cancer-risk.html Hmmm grilled hotdogs
  3. 786,000 died of sausage last year. No, wait I think it was something else. I watched a show a few years back that listed natural foods that were carcinogenic. Beansprouts was high on the list, but as was mentioned, nobody would ever eat enough to really cause any harm. No long ago they were searching for the cause of a high rate stomach cancer in one region of China. It turned out to be an edible mushroom that was popular in the area. So, I think, unless you are a 3 pack a day sausage eater, you can probably find some else to worry about.
  4. I am guessing that the flight to Thailand is the same as the one you reported on your Thaipass. If so I can't see where there would be a problem. The only one I can see is if you had canceled the original ticket and bought new with the connecting flight. If so the airline may notice the reservation numbers don't match. When I came no flight matching was done in Thailand. Again---I don't really know.
  5. Many airlines will allow one flight change. So, say you didn't get your covid test back in time you can change the flight time to a later time. If the price has gone up since you bought the ticket, you will have to pay the difference. The airline I took only gives this option on roundtrip tickets. I may need to change my return ticket to the states because my extension ends on the 5th and my flight out is on the 4th. They will not let me apply earlier than a month in advance with a return for final stamp date 2 weeks after my flight date, if I I don't get it within the month, I will have to reschedule the flight.
  6. I would check for free changes. If this war continues I am sure the price of tickets will be going up a lot. If you don't have to change then you will be money ahead. If you have to change will have already paid part of the increase.
  7. Just one example. I needed a MRI at Bangkok Hospital Korat. I was put on a hospital bus, driven to the government hospital, put in the front of the line for the MRI and then driven back.
  8. Are you using a VPN? If so try turning it off.
  9. Did mine a couple of weeks ago, no problem. I don't know what they look for. One year I left out a digit in one of my bank account numbers. I did discovered it myself the following year, heard nothing from them. I would think it as something to do with your personal info. Have you moved or changed something since last year?
  10. Although it is nice to have encase of unforeseen, if you are really planning to live here it would be a waste of money. What you could do is opt out for a year and see if you need it. You could save the extra for medical use here in Thailand. You can always reinstate Medicare, but you will have to pay 10% more for each year you are out.
  11. Unless they are proving that they know you personally, just mark it as spam and forget about it. Often e-mail list stolen from some site show up on the "Dark Web" or are sold. They may make assumptions about you from what the website it was taken from.
  12. I don't think those traps work out side. The just call out for more to come over. Inside they are pretty good. I would be more inclined to think foliage may be the problem. I have a low going plant ground cover that the mosquitos just love, Stays moist under the leaves. If I go near that area, they swarm. I have planted things they say repels them (lemongrass, Where Citronella comes from) but not sure if it has done any good.
  13. I am happy with my life. Lots of big mistakes, lots of what if"s. But would have been that way no matter what other decisions I made in the past. There was a great movie about a dying man telling his life story. But the stories didn't make sense because they all hinged on a one decision he made when he was 8.
  14. The last time I was in there, they only let one person in to pick up the PP anyway, due to Covid,
  15. 75 years ago I was born in the old US south. Maybe a third of the locals were black. I rarely saw black people, not in my school, not at the stores my family went to. You know why? They just wouldn't fit in.
  16. What, working with his own prejudices and assumptions? I guess he should also be able to pick who he serves?
  17. We grow our own rice and vegetables so I don't notice the price on those. We bake and have seen the price of flour go up over 10%. Packaged chicken sold at Tesco went from 300g to 250g, I think to hide the price increase. I also see less butter croissants, and more margarine croissants being sold at the old price of the butter. The butter ones are at least a third more now. Seasonal price differences makes it hard to know what is what.
  18. Maybe they are not staying long enough. Maybe every thing is fine at first but the problem comes up after a time.
  19. That is how I got screwed last year. Korat always set my last 90 day to the end of my extension. Last year I didn't look at my extension date and went in using my 90 day -date--7 day overstay! Did the 90 day online as I usually had done.
  20. Check both the country you are going to and the airline. To go to the US, I only need a ATK test within 24 hrs of the flight, but if my layover is longer than 24 hours in Japan I will need a PCR. I think when I came I had to have a PCR to fly JAL.
  21. Just wait to meet someone riding the other way
