Go to the owner in Pattaya, fine him 5 times the amount that the tourists were fined, confiscate and destroy the jet skis. Who ever the person was (and it must have been a Thai as the job will be restricted to Thais) can then face the owner, and it will be his problem.

I must be a mug then. In over 4 years of buying through Lazada, 2 or 3 times a month, and paying COD for about 95% of the time, I have only had 2 wrong deliveries. Both of them were wrong because I ordered the wrong thing. How many COD orders have YOU made to Lazada, paying COD and got the wrong item?

If readers don't want to read a book as the author has written it, then read another book by a different author. There are literally millions of books available worldwide, and there will always be some books that some readers will like and other readers will not like. You can get them free from public libraries, buy them new or second hand, even read some of them for free on the internet.

Perhaps a buy one, get one free, or BOGOF.

So the hacker takes complete control of YOUR personal account and does what THEY want with it Personal experience since October 2022.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Cambodian_Air_Force https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lao_People's_Liberation_Army_Air_Force https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myanmar_Air_Force This is a far more serious proposition and IMHO the RTAF has very few combat aircraft to equal the Myanmar air force. In addition, IMHO the Myanmar air force have better aircraft and better trained crews than Thailand and even the much vaunted, (and not yet available) F 35 will be of little use as there not be enough of them to make any real difference.

The biggest problem is that the victim is a teenager, and there is no money in the case for the police.

IMO it is called the enemy of my enemy is my friend. (At least for now).

It is that elastic word again. "may" IMHO if China does supply offensive weapons to Russia it won't be give but probably sell or swap for something that China needs, like cheap oil.

Thus speaks the voice of the little wannabe Napoleon. It is not as though he is speaking for NATO or the EU, merely to the people of France.

But millions more voted for Biden than Trump and they cannot all be wrong. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020_United_States_presidential_election Nominee Joe Biden Donald Trump Party Democratic Republican Home state Delaware Florida[c] Running mate Kamala Harris Mike Pence Electoral vote 306 232 States carried 25 + DC + NE-02 25 + ME-02 Popular vote 81,283,501[1] 74,223,975[1] Percentage 51.3% 46.8% What confuses me is that if Trump was so good and so popular as his supporters both in the USA and here claim, how could he have lost both the electoral college vote and the popular vote? How can he have lost so many court cases claiming electoral fraud?

Thank you for that information. I will try that when I can pry the mobile from my wife or son. Too late tonight.

If you say so, not that I would believe it anyway. If you believed his daily lies, all 30,xxx in 4 years. Do you remember them? If everything was so good under Trump, please explain why he was voted out?

Trump didn't sort it out either.

It was directed at you as it was your post I specifically answered. I have no idea if @JohhnyF is/was a Brexiteer of not. If I was responding to his post, I would have directed my post to him.

I got moved downstairs and my son got moved upstairs this afternoon. A gang of his mates came around at 10am Thai time, which is anywhere from 11:15 for the earliest to not long after 1pm for the last. One job I asked them to do was to move as many books from bags into a couple of big plastic boxes. Only about 20 books went walkabout sadly.

I have been having a problem receiving any SMS OTP for the last 5 days. While trying to pay my mobile bills through KBank to AIS, DTAC and 3 BB I get all the way to the SMS OTP part, then click on OTP, I get the reference code 4 letters but the 6 figure OTP number can take anything from 19 minutes to a couple of hours to arrive. Not much use when I only have a 5 minute window. A copy of my log for the last 2 days follows. KBank SMS I requested my first KBank SMS at 10:25 on 17 February 2023 and it arrived on my mobile at 10:52. The reference DVMK otp 353643 was generated at 10:25 but it took 27 minutes to arrive at 10:52 instead of the usual less than 1 minute. As the time limit is 5 minutes it is a waste of time This problem has only started since Tuesday 14 February 2023. The 2nd reference WPST otp 916731, was generated at 10:33 and delivered at 12:00. My 3rd reference HYYR otp 838177 and was generated at 13:44 and arrived at 14:18. My 4th reference UTLL otp was generated at 17:42 17 February 2023 and arrived at 18:20. My 5th reference MGOR otp 560670 was generated at 18:11 through my Opera browser and the problem still remains. It arrived at 19:04. Reference TYPC otp 599225 generated at 18:11 and received at 20:15. I have called the same AIS operator as yesterday with a similar result though she did suggest using a different browser. I tried again with Opera instead of Chrome but get the same result. Sunday 19 February 2023 1st reference today Reference MEMV otp 050723 generated at 11:54, received at 12:13, well outside the 5-minute window. 2nd try today. Reference CFDV otp 277115 at 13:03 generated at 13:03, received at 14:xx. Well outside the 5 minutes allowed. I transferred funds from my BBK Bank to KBank. I logged into BBK online and that worked and told me that I had transferred the funds but no SMS to say I got the funds in the first place. I have contacted both the KBank and AIS call centres who deny the problem is theirs. I have shut my mobile down to clear the messages cache. That made no difference. The SMS actually do show up after a long period of time, so they are being sent.

What a wonderful diversionary jump from Nicola Sturgeon resigning, to Trump sneaking onto the topic somehow, and now to President Biden and the failure of Brexit, (his part in the downfall of Brexit). The topic of the thread has nothing to do with either President Biden, or Brexit, or even Kim Jong Un by the way.

In my case I would be happy to give ALL my books, the 2 bookshelves and the assorted bags of paper books away. The condition will be, whoever wants them has to come and collect them, and take the whole lot in one go.

Experience is usually lessons learned the hard way. It is not as if somebody can open a box and give you several handfuls of experience.

We are, though you may not be.

30,000 plus lies in 4 years. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/01/24/trumps-false-or-misleading-claims-total-30573-over-four-years/ Analysis by Glenn Kessler, Salvador Rizzo and Meg Kelly January 24, 2021 at 3:00 a.m. EST When The Washington Post Fact Checker team first started cataloguing President Donald Trump’s false or misleading claims, we recorded 492 suspect claims in the first 100 days of his presidency. On Nov. 2 alone, the day before the 2020 vote, Trump made 503 false or misleading claims as he barnstormed across the country in a desperate effort to win reelection. Now that is not a hoot but rather sad.

The used to have those big machines that swallowed your money and spit the ticket out at you. And if you were really lucky, you got your change as well.

If it works.
