Shurely shome mishtake? It will be operating any day now:

(from the above article)

[The then tranport minister] Arkhom said a total of 13 construction contracts for the Bangkok-Nakhon Ratchasima route would be open for bidding in 2018 so that construction could be completed and the system become operational in 2021.

Well...he's in that kind of brace thing...I imagine that it would be quite painful..but I wish he was still posting as II liked his "bon mots"-that's one for Monsieur Vol au Vent or P.C Wren or the usual hellhounds of the Legion..????

'his bon mots'?

First time I've heard my waffle described as such. Can I have a pint of what you've been drinking?

If only my brace was an Australian foreplay version - "Brace yerself Shelia."

Then it would have been worth the 1,300 Baht.

Deleted double post (making up for lost time)

I wonder how Bluesofa is going?

He has been very quiet after returning home post the bike accident..I hope that all is well...

It's the mind-bending drugs my nurse has been slipping me to keep me quiet.

I'm still here lurking.

I can't spent a lot of time sitting at the keyboard, I need to spend most of it laying on my back.

In my younger days I always had a problem getting my back off the bed in the morning. Now it's medically required for me to have that malaise.

after leaks that 41 navy personnel were to be transferred

Surely the navy is the correct military group if 'leaks' are involved.

Mr Owl is well, and is looking forward to joining you all soon. He tells me he has learnt his lesson, and will not, in future, be goaded into posting anything that might lead to a debate; and another hol'.

Hmm, are you sure?
This is still a spotted leopard:.

The market is closed only on Mondays for cleaning, Mrs Walaya said.

It's only cleaned once a week?

Given the current covid virus and and the government telling everyone to constantly clean all items, it seems rather worrying.

My claim to fame! I was the first ever customer when the Hard Rock Cafe opened thirty years ago.

I queued outside with a friend for half-an-hour, then rushed inside. The meal was free, and were were told our photo would be in Time Magazine. I think they meant Thai Magazine.

to enter the country without the requirement for quarantine, called “Sandbox”

If they start it in Pattaya, won't they lose the sand as soon as it rains?
