Yes, and take it one step further, that will be bad for the wider economy. And what does the government do when the economy is at risk? Why it throws money at the problem, of course, usually in the way of price caps or subsidies. They may as well avoid the unpleasantness to come and simply announce a French-style price cap now, rather than wait until public opinion forces them to do so.

...but what is the switch in your car that puts both indicators going at the same time for then? It's obviously a park-anywhere switch so that you can let others know you're exercising your right as a free Thai citizen to do as you bleeding well like! Someone once told me that it was a hazard warning indicator, but that's obviously nonsense or else every car in the country would have it going all the time.

Looks like it might be time for them to hire Lt. Colonel Thaksin Shinawatra so that he can teach them all about the Tak Bai manoeuvre.

The bill finally arrived, just over 500 Baht so another very useful discount. I remember a year ago when I sent the GF to City Hall to pay that they told her she could pay now at certain banks like SCB. Does anyone know if you can pay it at a 7-eleven, it's got a bar code on it just like, say, a utility bill? Or maybe in a Lotus's''s' Express or a Mini Big C? It's just that these days there's not that many bank branches around with so many closing, whereas there's still a 7-eleven every 100 yards or so it seems.

I've been giving my dogs NexGard Spectra for years now, first getting it from the local vet then ordering it from Lazada as they were cheaper and had the whole range, while the vet was often out of stock of what I wanted. It's time to order a fresh batch but now NexGard in all its forms seems to have vanished from Lazada. I checked where I got the last batch from and that's now listed as a 'non-existent product'. Does anyone know what's happened to NexGard on Lazada, or where else to buy it other than a small local vet?

Is there any good deli-style pastrami available in Pattaya? I usually bring it back with me from a deli in the UK, but this last year that hasn't been an option. I tried the TGM locally-produced pastrami but wasn't very impressed with that, it's better than nothing but that's about all the praise I can give it. I've looked in Villa on many occasions but have never seen it there. Has anybody seen any in the various supermarkets, locally-made or imported, I don't mind as long as it's good?
