  1. Stupid? What about the Thai girls who, right in the middle of the epidemic, went to Mayanmar to work in the casino, got ill with covid, came back home by illegally crossing the border and recording it all on Facebook as evidence! Thats stupid!
  2. Dont quite like either choice but given the latter's long standing history of aggression, regardless of excuses made, I'm inclined to agree with you.
  3. I think you fail to remember all the good work the US has done in supporting democratically elected governments in places such as Guatemala, Guiana, Ecuador, Brazil, Dominican Republic, Chile, Nicaragua, Grenada, El Salvador, Haiti, Venezuela, etc etc etc etc! And this is just in Central and South America. History tells it all clearly. ????
  4. Hes not coming back to sit in a jail cell and somehow take care of his children lol!. The elections are over, the end results decided and the future all mapped out.......well, apart from informing us on whats been decided.
  5. One more thing to take into account is the renewal of your atm card. I had an account with Bangkok bank in Minburi and the card expired about 3 months ago. I visited a couple of local branches to try to get a new card but was told I would have to go back to the accounts home branch )I'm in Isaan). Now I know some people on here will say "oh no thats b**lsh*t" well it happened to me and many others and people say a lot of things on here but just be warned. I tried to get around it by closing the a/c and opening another locally, thinking I would save on the "other province" fees but alas they got me on the deposit fees. The whole thing is a scam with them treating Thailand like it is 70 odd countries, not provinces, and making you pay for it as though the internet costs more to cross borders lol!
  6. Well depends on what kind of life youve led. Aches and pains normal for me after 50 but havnt been kind to my body, worn my back into an arthritic mess amongst other things. 71 now but yes I have often pondered on the question: How am I supposed to feel at my age?
  7. Back in the mid 70's I passed thru a "wild west" town in Spain set up for making spaghetti westerns. Out in the middle of nowhere, just like in the movies, it was a main street, mostly props but did have a complete saloon, sherrifs office including cells and a gallows outside. But no church this time.
  8. I dont think I could have done a better job nor add anything to your concise conclusion lol! I think what surprised me more about this film was how the makers pulled no punches in letting us know what they really thought about him. I did enjoy him as a comedian but never knew this side of him. Wow!
  9. How can I not watch it now..........are you on a commission lol?
  10. No it isnt unless you are registered with Thaiger and I'd take a wild guess and say very few are so yes, a meaningless article to most.
  11. 1000 overstays? After all the crackdowns we still see clear evidence that someone is still not doing their job?
  12. I have used them quite extensively over last couple of years with few problems. Most deliveries between 10 to 14 days upcountry. There is no indication, unlike Lazada or Shopee as to from where in China its being sent from so time can vary. Like any of these sites it is essential to always read the reviews of a shop/product before buying. Customs clearance is handled on the way. I have had to pay customs duty on only 2 out of 15 identical items over time, and that was when the orders final leg was by Thai post which was paid at local post office. One trick to be wary of that caught me was because one time I didnt check reviews. I ordered goods from a store that in hindsight they didnt have in stock and needed to be brought in. The trick iis they order the carrier to pick up the non existing parcel which makes it a failed pick up on the logistics side. Now you know there is a problem as time goes by because still not picked up, but you cant cancel the order and start the refund process until a certain time period has passed (2 weeks I think) . In the meantime the store is hoping to get your order in and forward it before the time period ends thus leading to delays on your end. Another problem I have had is with payments. Sometimes you need to clear all cookies before making payment otherwise a failure due to some security reason. Separate to that I have had problems with using a Thai SCB debit card whereas my Aussie debit card goes through every time. With the SCB card very 2 or 3 orders (every 2 or 3 weeks) they want to verify my the card with statements, ID etc causing a delay of a day or 2. This verification never happens with my Aussie card except when first using a new card replacing an expired one. All in all I have no hesitation in using Aliexpress.
  13. Why investigate? We already know the results. But if the real results were acted on, the country would fall into anarchy because there wouldnt be anyone to police it!
  14. Why didnt the Aussie just holla "break failure"!? Seems to work every time for Thais?
  15. Ya baa? I thought we had to blame everything on cannabis now? lol!
  16. Yes Sir Les, I agree, The peoples votes may have been cast and counted but the big decision will come from elsewhere. Early days still.
  17. You send your dummy on flights and holidays? Oh no no no! My sex doll stays in the bedroom where she belongs irregardless what she says.
