  1. “Would you sleep with a stranger if he paid you $1,000,000?” the lawyer asked the pretty defendant. “Yes.” “Would you sleep with him if he paid you only $100?” “Certainly not! What do you think I am?” “We’ve already established what you are,” came back the lawyer. “Now we are trying to establish to what extent.”
  2. VFS provide the form to "ask" immigration to transfer the stamps to new passport. Usually when you get your new passport.
  3. He is the number one advocate for the recently legalised Cannabis, perhaps he is testing it out too often?
  4. Meaning of SWAT Sitting and Watching All the Traffic Simple Waste of Action and Time Seniors With A Touch Stunts, Wheelies, and Aerial Tactics Students Working As a Team
  5. At least they are up with the Metaverse, the now big thing. Huge investments worldwide pouring in to it's development. Some great opportunities for investors.
  6. Where it is most needed I would guess, and some to charity.
  7. "One night in Krung Thep Maha Nakhon" Not quite the same now?
  8. Unless Prayuth is responsible for the unseasonal rains that has reduced the burning for some of the time probably not. With a bit of luck more rain coming in the next few days to dampen the enthusiasm of the arsonists.
  9. 72 when we bought our house, 42 when we sold it last year, no complaints there. On the other hand the fixed UK pension is - nuff said!
  10. Playing golf actually. Was the chart I posted too difficult to read?
  11. Have a wild guess as to which mountain it may be based on your knowledge of having been in Chiang Mai for many years. As for where I am? There was a clue in the thread title.
  12. You were obviously not where I was this morning, stink of burning and the mountain starting to disappear. And I guess the AGI at that time was incorrect? Unless we get the rain that some other places are getting we are couple of weeks away from 200 plus!
  13. 34C and not a cloud in the sky in Chiang Mai Showing "unhealthy" air on some of the AQI sites and Doi Suthep is starting to disappear.
  14. Three weeks had a young Thai guy on a motorcycle rip off the rear right side of my bumper whilst he was dodging in and out of traffic at high speed as they do. He was very lucky sustaining cuts and grazes. No helmet, flip flops, no insurance, no ID but he was wearing a mask! Police on the scene quickly, motorcyclist was whipped away by one of "those" ambulances. My ID was taken from me by a senior police offer who had decided to come to the scene of a minor traffic accident and I was told to go to the local police station to see him and make another statement after the insurance guy had evaluated the scene. The "local" police station was 15 miles away! Arrived at the police station with the insurance assessor and went in to the office of the senior police officer. The insurance assessor pointed out to the officer that my car was absolutely straight in the lane and that my car was stationary waiting in traffic when hit by the motorcyclist, in addition I had front and rear cameras. Then I went home and prepared to get the car fixed.
