  1. Any of you guys ever heard of Maidan and the (non-respected by Zelensky) Minsk Accords? Just wondering why so much love for Zelensky and so much hatred for Putin...
  2. Yes. I use BKK when talking about Bangkok town but, indeed, in a thread about Don Mueang airport I should have used that apt code, ie DMK. I'll keep that in mind otherwise it can lead to confusion. ????
  3. It has something to do with when she was a very young impoverished Isaan village girl. She saw a Mira one day and thought how happy she would be to have one like that. Now she can. So, it's more like a sentimental buy for her. Not really a practical one.
  4. Yes. She found one on the Net in very good shape in Pitsanulok for 250k. Just making up her mind before going there to check it and maybe buy it. She has a car but finds it more convenient to zip around the village on her motocy. The Mira would protect her from sun and rain. And it will be a new toy! No way I could fit in myself! And, Yes I think it's crazy money. ???? Thanks also to all who posted replies.
  5. We have a car and a couple motocys but now the wife has set her mind getting a Daihatsu Mira. She has been looking pn the net for second hand Mira. They all are second car since production ceased some years ago. Anybody has anything to say about the Mira?
  6. I must have missed something... According to what I've learned it's the EU led by the domineering Ursula vdL who decided to get totally away from Russian gas and oil for good. And Nord Stream 2 was refused certification by Germany not by Putin.
  7. Very good OP question and many thanks to the answers. My last trip to BKK from Ubon was a few years back. I then used the APT bus to BTS Mochit. Nice to know that I can now whizz easy to downtown.
  8. https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/liz-truss-ready-to-press-nuclear-button-tory-leadership-race_uk_6305d5e4e4b00c150d662c87 https://tass.com/politics/1497439 I very well understand the geostrategic and economic motivations of the US to wage a proxy war war against Russia in the Ukraine. That the EU vassal states follow diligently their American Leader to WWIII is clear to me too. But, though I've learned a lot about that conflict I totally fail to see what would be the profit for a Brexit UK to go nuclear against Russia, Unless the UK is truly well more vassal to the US than I thought. Because, of course the UK decision to go nuclear first against Russia will have to be approved the US.
  9. The drums of war are beating louder every day. The UK Armed Forces Chief has already declared that the UK military must be ready to fight Russia any day now and asked the troops to tell their loved ones that they're soon going to war. Liz Truss has said that she is ready to go nuclear against Russia. Boris Johnson has just made a surprise visit to Zelensky to tell him not to get into peace talks with Satan Putin. And Macron has made a very disquieting speech that has alarmed the French. Basically he said that their carefree life of abundance is over and they must be ready for "sacrifices" and privations from now on. Did he mean WWIII is coming? Enormous strategic and financial interests are at stake to make this Ukraine proxy war to go on and maybe develop into a full scale WWIII. Maybe nuclear.
  10. I'm in the same situation. It's look, talk but no come close. At the first signs of flu-like discomfort four days ago my wife fortunately went immediately in self-isolation fearing Covid-19 as it has returned in our Isaan district village. She did indeed tested positive and got high fever for a day. The fever has gone but she doesn't feel well all over. Another test tonight. And, yes it's irritating that I cannot come close to her even when just talking. Lucky I am as I'm not positive at this time.
  11. The wife just got Covid-19. She felt sickly three days ago and went in self isolation fearing Covid-19. Yesterday she got checked positive and with high fever. Today the fever has abated but she still feels sick all over. Quite a few cases have appeared in our Isaan district village. It's fortunate that she had the good sense of isolating right at first symptoms so me and the family may just not have been contaminated.
  12. So is the Russian-speaking Donbass minority that Mr Zelensky has steadily bombed for the past 8 years.
  13. I'm married and use the 800k method.. Simple. I don't plan to claim the married way ever.
  14. My wife decides. I follow. She decided for the H-RV and for Papa's Revo (he liked a Ranger...). ????
  15. Thanks to all who responded to my OP. I read all posts with great interest particularly about 4WD in aquaplaning conditions. The wife has decided that it'll be the top of the line : 2.8 lt with 4WD. She'll start checking online for a good dealer to buy from and what best borrowing rates she can get. No dealer in our district village!
  16. The wife has set her mind to buy a Fortuner 2023. Apparently there is an order queue. She'll drive it like she drives our H-RV now. I don't like to drive in Thailand. I just ride my motocy. She wonders if she should put X-tra baht into the 4W model. We live in Isaan but don't really go off-road. Any one here has an opinion about the Toyota Fortuner, 4W or not?
  17. Can an executor of a will be a beneficiary? It is legal and common practice for a beneficiary to be the executor of a will, like when a surviving spouse or adult child is named to serve as executor and also receives an inheritance from the will. https://www.policygenius.com/wills/can-an-executor-of-a-will-be-a-beneficiary/
  18. As long as my mother was alive I had no Will. After she died I made a Holographic Will to the benefit of my stepsister's children. In 2014 I made three Wills benefiting universally the Thai girl I was living with in Pattaya and cancelling my previous Will. I have only a motorcycle and money in three banks Money in the bank in Thailand : Thai lawyer in Pattaya wrote the Will Money in the bank in Singapore : Singapore lawyer in Singapore wrote the Will Thai girl is Executor and Beneficiary for both Wills. Money in the bank in Belgium : I wrote a Holographic Testament naming her. What is interesting is that both lawyers (TH and SIN) insisted in my naming a Plan B beneficiary in case the original beneficiary was no longer available at the time of disposing of the Wills. I named Green Peace. That Thai girl and I got married a couple years ago so this should simplify even more the Wills' executions.
  19. I see that a lot of posters on this Hate-Russia thread are quite happy with NATO goading Putin enough to force him to go for a nuclear war on European soil. How great the Glory of dying for Ukraine. Or, rather for the geostrategic and economic goals of the US.
  20. They want to keep on speaking Russian but Zelensky has forbidden the use of that language. So, the Donbass wanted some sort of autonomy. Anyway, they're now independent and can join Russia if they want to.
  21. Obviously you never heard of the Minsk agreements violated by US Marionette Zelensky. And the US planning to make Ukraine a Nuclear-armed hostile to Russia state. You also ignore that Ukraine has been attacking the Russophone Donbass region for 8 years.
  22. Yes, no need for more after a first big poo and he has leveled a couple of war mongering Western capitals. China and the US are safe.
  23. Yes! Yes! I want to bring some of my Monopoly Euro here... But wife says: Wait! Wait! When Euro @ 38 you make transfer.
  24. Wife had a problem with Shopee and so no more buying through them. I just bought a new HP computer from a big big name company advertising on its web site that model at a good price. I had a problem installing that new printer and realized that it had been sent to me by another company obviously subcontracted by the Big guy. No sign of a guaranty in the package. All my future online orders will be strictly though Lazada.
