  1. Mine on the same day here in rural Kamphaeng Phet was 4.62 baht. the lowest this year. Going back a bit the lowest was 2.36 baht. That was back in May 2019. Mostly it has been over 4 baht a unit for the last 3 years.
  2. Do you have anything that backs up what you say. You could always ask for independent verification but that would involve independent observers being allowed to enter Gaza without being surrounded by the IDF. quote from your post "But sure, go ahead and be hamas-Isis supporter, and one day they will get you too". I am not a supporter of Hamas, but a supporter of the Palestinian people. I hate ALL despotic governments that trample over the human rights of any people. I suppose that you believe that this is fake news too. https://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-middle-east-67248397 and this https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-67252107 How about this one? Do you think that they are all Hamas supporters too? https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-67246847 You may even believe that this is true. After all it comes from the same news source. https://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-middle-east-67250802 Or do you believe that everything that the Israeli government and the IDF is 100% of the truth, and that they would never tell a lie? That shouldn't be a problem except that the IDF pretty much controls who enters Gaza or not and since the massacre, no independent observers are allowed into Gaza, let alone be unescorted. The reasoning is that it has been declared a war zone. Who by. you might enquire? By the Israeli government and the IDF who control everything and everyone that goes (or wants to go) into Gaza legally.
  3. Yet another poster who believes that the speaks for everyone. "WE" is not you speaking for me because you certainly don't. So Hamas sends out propaganda and the IDF doesn't? The IDF doesn't kill indiscriminately using tanks, armoured bulldozers, ground attack aircraft and helicopter gunships? The Israeli government doesn't cut off water, power, medical supplies, blockade Gaza by land sea and air ? The Israeli government doesn't commit crimes against humanity and are condemned by many countries worldwide, saved by the veto of the USA. A shameful act if ever I saw one. The Israeli government doesn't evict Palestinian people from their homes and steals their land to give to Israeli settlers? What do you expect the Palestinians to do. Give up and go quietly and go to a refugee camp where the IDF can slaughter them more easily? Or fight back with anything they have? Many have died doing that and many more will die now as the Israeli government has cut off ALL the basic essentials of life to Gaza. I posted my thoughts on a different thread, and the moderators quite correctly deleted my post. My words have changed but my thoughts have not. When I was in my 20s I had great sympathy for the Israelis for their suffering before, during and after WW2, but their leaders since the 1960s have wiped all that away.
  4. Not correct. IMHO, those people trying to drag Thailand back to the dark ages are the military, plus the yellow shirts and the rabid royalists.
  5. Even better, bee like us oldies and don't use your phone for any banking apps. Use your pc and check you balance every day and any SMS goes to your mobile only. Check your messages every time and then accept, delete or block the sender. No problem.
  6. I know that it should have been the West bank, but 1 I was too lazy to change it, and 2 I remembered that you did it and got abused by some numpty for doing it. T E Lawrence died in 1935 so had no idea what happened but if he did know he would probably be spinning in his grave at the betrayal.
  7. Thank you for the update.
  8. Good for you but the thread was about Thai European and Australian long haul routes and not Thai Smile domestic routes. I have no room to talk, as my last long haul flight was when I returned from NZ in May 2009, using Singapore Airways. My last domestic flight was also in 2009 from BKK to NST and I came back from NST. on a sleeper train to BKK and 350km back home on a motorbike I had bought in NST. Totally irrelevant to the thread though.
  9. Stupid is as stupid does. Trump, having been fined already for the same offence, compounds it by repeating the same offence, and then whines like a baby when he gets fined yet again. IMHO if I were the judge and he does it again, and I am sure he will, Secret Service body guards or not I would sentence him to a week in jail. He wants to be a martyr, so give him his wish.
  10. Thai Airways is owned by the same government that owns TAT and TOT. From what I have seen of their forecasts, their executives have been skipping their sodium pentothal or sodium thiopental truth serum daily med doses.
  11. Or me either. How many of the "we" do you actually know, and allow you to speak for them?
  12. Not correct, Some us elderly are particular what apps we use. FB disabled my FB account for the second time this morning. It takes around 30 minutes to create a FB account, 30 days if you close it your self, yet the robot or AI at FB can disable your account instantly. There is no appeal against the robot or AI at FB. My first FB account was hijacked and it is still in operation over a year later. I cannot close it as the bar steward who hijacked it, changed the password, and despite numerous appeals to FB it is still in operation. FB simply don't care. With my second FB account I have only 6 friends that I personally know, yet FB has bombarded me with people who want to be my friends, well over1 thousand, yet I cannot switch that app OFF or disable it
  13. I don't think that Israel actually wants Gaza as they had it once before. What I DO believe, is that Israel under Netanyahu's government want to eradicate the entire population of Gaza and the East bank and end up with a single state, composed of Israeli's and some "tame" Palestinians just for show.
  14. An alternative view is that if more people leave ANN/TVF the less clicks, the less revenue.
  15. Starmer should be careful in claiming to be an heir to Tony Blair. Blair is also a war criminal.
  16. Thank you. I have just done a snip from my KBank account, and while the MEA is showing, PEA is not.
  17. And keep Trump, his son in law plus all of their family well away from ANY discussions regarding Israel and the Palestinians.
  18. Thank you. Thank you
  19. You will find it at the next spring after buying and losing the one you bought as a spare. That is why I keep finding things.
  20. But it is a start of relief convoys. Does anybody know which country blocked the convoys? Israel, Egypt or Palestinian/Gaza/Hamas?
  21. Which bank is that. I am with KBank and the PEA and they didn't have that app the last time I looked.
  22. In your post above you asked this question. quote "just for interest what is the imperial size of the 28.3mm". I answered it. If you don't like the answer, then search for it yourself and don't bother to ask the question.
  23. But is that the only end game, whatever that is? I am hopeful that wiser heads are around to stop this. Unfortunately there does not seem to be wiser heads in the Hamas or the Israeli leadership (in alphabetical order). Each side has its own grievances (true or false lies in history) and each side believes that they alone are right and will fight to the last man, woman, child, cats and dogs to prove it. What will the eventual winners end up with? Thousands and millions of dead people and 2 countries destroyed. Sadly if the phoenix does arise from the ashes, IMHO they will start all over again. What will the survivors actually have gained? SFA.
  24. Thank you for that link. I was looking at an LED floodlight today and it was rated at 50 watts. By using the link against incandescent the equivalent would have been 500 watts.
