Tastes OK to me, not a lot of whole wheat in it though , I though bread would

have to  have some sugar in it to feed the yeast , to produce Co2 to make the

bread rise,  some Thai bread products do have a lot more sugar in them.

regards worgeordie

A lot of sugar in everything here even pizza!  Thats why it has one of the highest rates of diabetes in the world (although sticky rice is also a culprit).

Once again everybody is sure quick to blame the drugs, drink, and failing mental health on every problem today.  But I can tell you I would not have got through this marriage of near 20 years without them.....no way!!  ????

Its not stated in the article but I imagine this was another inter college war.  Tribalism at schools is nothing new.  We as kids used to have wars with other schools which always reached a peak at the end of the year inter-school athletics, however our attacks usually only involved flour bombs, jumping up and down on the oppositions' straw school hats or deflating their school bus tyres.    Now its guns and knives......how things have changed.

Yes I am so grateful to the Thai govt for capping prices to ease my living costs as my electric bill only increased by 300 baht this month lol!   And as Mrs Felix so rightly pointed out, you never see these increases go back down when the fuel prices drop again.......but then Thailand is not on its own there.

Been a while so could have changed but Lak Si amphur were greedy enough to take the right envelopes from us to pay staff to witness but I got a feeling the envelopes didnt get passed the boss.  No appointment required back then.  But be careful of the friendly scalpers outside who are kind enough to arrange photocopies you were unaware of and filling in missing paperwork correctly for an up-to-you donation only to discover most of it was not required.  Pretty good scam really.  They gave the appearance of working for the amphur, were certainly not chased off, but I imagine their little business thrived only as long as their envelopes made their way up the stairs periodically too.

Just billion?? I thought the lowest bar for any Thailand projection start from Trillions!

Its a misprint, it should read multi billion baht per hour.

For Phuck's sakes!!  Who is the enemy?   Neither Burma nor Cambodia has anything with which to fight.  Vietnam and China would clean up Thailand in a half a day.  So where is the threat that needs defense?

 

Or is this about kickbacks to the Thai Military Bank accounts in the Cayman Islands?  Just asking.

Vietnam and China would have to have victory in half a day because Thailand would be all shut at 12 oclock sharp for lunch.

BS. Who is a threat to lol. Thailand? Just more toys for rich militaristic PM. What about feeding hungry people? 

Hungry people are hungry because of some evil they did in a previous life, so they deserve it and none can change that lol!

Against what? Nobody wants to invade Thailand.

What would the prize be?

 

A very unusual race of homo sapiens.

How dare he question authority, what is wrong with the children of today?

Check with your local Imm office to be sure.  Each have their own different requirements.  My office in Isaan requires cert from a hospital and rejects those from a clinic.

Guess he will have at least an hour's training facing him before he gets his licence back (what licence I hear you say)

Up my way he would have passed the driving test for staying on the road for that long.

It seemed to me that international post went up considerably when the covid started but domestic post went down to promote people staying home.  From memory domestic parcel post is still only 22 baht for up to a half kilo.

I always keep my ladies panties locked up in my make-up drawer.....too many weirdos around.????

It is not down. Its security certificate expired on the 27th.

I assume you are getting this message or similar,

 

If you click advanced you can bypass the security certificate problem.

Correct.  I had same problem the day before yesterday, bypassed via 'advanced' and no problem.  Received approved report yesterday.

A few years back a young kid was killed on a local school crosswalk and their was a local campaign to pacify all the concerned parents.  At 2 oclock  in the afternoon a team was out repainting the crosswalk with the mayor addressing several TV camera crews.  An hour later they opened the road again and left.  By 5 o'clock the still wet crosswalk paint had gone again due to rush hour traffic.  I guess it would have been too hard to get the mayor out at 2 in the morning when traffic is light and the paint had time to dry.  Most importantly the light would have been too poor at that time for the mayors TV coverage!

AIC: Russian-Ukrainian Tension and Chip Shortages Affect Vehicle Exports?

This has got to be fake news.  Its well known that Russia is a major producer of potatoes??

Hahaha...like the capitalist in any country care. What they care are more profits...

Yes, protecting American interests!

Actually I am surprised the US doesnt have a law prohibiting the import of any goods manufactured in a prison, I know Australia does.  However I imagine where the almighty dollar is at stake paperwork can be juggled to get around the laws like a few years ago when the US exported aluminium tubes to Iran for its uranium centrifuges even though they were under severe sanctions.

Thanks for the tip, I'll be doing mine this week.
