There were ladyboys in 1935?

I thought they appeared closer to midnight? Seven-thirty is very early.

What's No 2 & 3 got to do with a vaccination, 

Spoke to friends in the UK who have been vacciated, straightforward procedure, Received appointment from GP, vaccinated, go home takes about 1 minute,  so what happens if your over weight or to small/tall will you be sent away... 

It's part of their check-in system for just about any appointment. If you have an outpatient appointment for anything you need to be weighed, along with checking your blood pressure.

Turn up for a psychiatry appointment and they still want to know this, even if you were there the day before.

Perhaps checking your height will tell them if you're overweight (or just too short for your weight). Using judgement to see someone is fat doesn't come into it any more.

I think most of it has to do with Moon phases.  On this day, Feb.22, 2021,  the Moon will be in a Waxing Gibbous phase. This phase is when the moon is more than 50% illuminated but not yet a Full Moon. The phase lasts about 7 days with the moon becoming more illuminated each day until the Full Moon.  Why this particular moon phase has to do with anything, I have no clue. My guess is, that it has something to do with the Buddha's involvement with something.  Maybe he took a shower during this moon phase or passed gas or something.  ????‍♂️

Thanks for the insight into how it works.

Not that I can see why it should, but I am interested about any system used to arrive with these figures.

If it is lunar based, how does that fit in with the philosophy of buddhism, and why? I'm guessing it's part of the mumbo-jjumbo that's evolved down the (more recent) centuries?

It looks to me like some of the Sinovac will be here this month.

The Astra Zeneca will be here in August and December.

As there were earlier reports that our illustrious leader should not have the Sinovac injection as he is over sixty,  it therefore seems to rule the crumblies out?

Logically the over sixty population will have to wait until August - assuming the Astra Zeneca is suitable for them?

  Will TAT include Taiwan - The Republic of China (ROC)??

You'll be lucky. The government here are way too scared of the PRC to even mention the ROC in the same month.

Trying to curry favour with the Indian community then .. 

The one's I see arguing outside a pizza restaurant before even going in can't be in town to get married .. 

'curry favour' where's that? Is it near Curry Rivel in Somerset?

Is he miming a f'rrang carrying a box of beer across the beach ..

Yeah, must be - in an invisible box.

Isn't drinking banned on the beach now, along with all other types of enjoyment?

Look at that dirty ferang in the photo not wearing a mask. Won't go down well with our Thai xenophobe Anutin.

Looks Malay to me.

How can you tell? Is it tattooed on the neck?

Is there a restriction dependant on age?

I saw earlier our illustrious leader had volunteered himself to be shot (in the arm), only to read later later that he can't as he's over 60.

Maybe also expensive (at least on the budgetary estimate).

 

Is the sports area located in the middle of a road junction? Getting to it safely could be more extreme than the sports played within.

Rubbish Communication has the motto "We Love Keeping Thailand Clean". 

I wonder if they can talk their way out of this one?

At full capacity, Thailand was supposedly serving 40 tourists per year. If the demand is there, and if entry is easy again, I don't see why they wouldn't be able to manage ten million over the second half of this year.

'serving 40 tourists per year.'

While I realise it was an omission, you obviously don't work for TAT - I'm sure they would never accidentally under-estimate the number of tourists!

Health staff of Ban Nadee Hospital said hundreds of local residents already expressed their intention to be inoculated. The people are in the age ranges of 18-59 and 60 years old and over. The hospital will receive vaccination applications until Feb 24.

Is this application form available for everyone nationwide?

'The people are in the age ranges of 18-59 and 60 years old and over.'   Ah, they mean 18 and over.

She demanded money be put in a bag but Janya ran for it.

'ran for it'   I'm guessing that doesn't mean Janya (bank staff) ran to get a bigger bag, but away from the counter?

The robber apparently fled into the woods while station chief Pol Col Samer Yusamran ordered the area surrounded. 

Later the police will claim to be on her trail, after the body of a dead bear and an elephant were found.
