We're getting closer! A sign has been put up looking for employees! Yipee!!!
They are looking for employees for a shop that hasn't start the construction yet?
Sorry but I must be missing something.
I don't have all the details, just posting a pic of the help wanted sign!

Very sad news. A horrible way to die, I'm sure.

RT is 100% owned and operated by the Russian Government. CNN is not owned and operated by the US government. Biased? Every media outlet is biased. But not all are owned and operated by their respective governments.
Back to the topic, please. With credible news sources only. RT is not one of those.

Please, reputable news sources only. If you disagree with this, please PM me. Do NOT make a public post.

Or head up to Level 4 (departures) and select whatever taxi you like from the taxis who are dropping off departing passengers. You choose the taxi, no wait, they have always used the meter for me, and no 50 baht airport tax.
I have done that several times until the police stopped the taxi one time. I wasn't in trouble, but cost me well over 20 minutes and had to go downstairs and get in line. I couldn't get my bag out of the trunk until the cop was done "negotiating" with the driver.

I fly the same route 4 times a year, i always buy a one way ticket
for each leg, i'm a frequent flyer member for every carrier there is
and although Air China is the cheapest right now, i'll give it a miss.
I search for flights on the net, get the lowest fare then go to the
carriers web site and compare the fare, in my flying history
booking direct is always more expensive (prove me wrong i
dare you) than searching on the net, i just saved $400 AUD on
a Sydney - London flight and i fly this route for over 10 years,
booking direct = porky me thinks
100% agree with your approach. I do the same. Find the cheapest (acceptable) price/routing on the various consolidator websites, then book direct. 95% of the time, the price is exactly the same. Or at least very close. I've never seen a huge difference in price when booking direct. But I have been able to find cheaper fares on the consolidator website, but was able to replicate the routing and get the same price on the airline's own website.
Takes a bit of time, but works for me. The exception is the various airlines who don't put their fares on the consolidator websites. And there are quite a few of those.

I had forgotten to register so yesterday I signed up the the ais E-service using the missus's id number (would accept my passport number, needs to be 13 digits)to see if that "registers" my sim.
dialled *151# on the phone this morning and yep, says my sim is registered.
I registered within two days of the announcement so I did not forget. But thought I would double check by using the *151# just in case and YES all OK
I found out if you do *151*9# it will return the SMS in English.

That was for one plank!

Seems there's a big scare in Hong Kong now. Authorities have said the water was safe to drink for years. True, but only at the source...
Confirmation that the drinking water at another public housing estate is contaminated with lead has heightened public alarm. It has been further stoked by news of more results of tests on residents that reveal lead levels in blood in excess of World Health Organisation guidelines, with a medical expert warning of possible exposure to potential health risks, including harm to an unborn baby and to the developing brain and nervous system in children.
Until now confidence in the safety and security of the city's water supply has long been a given. The lead contamination is a reminder that it can never be taken for granted. Public anxiety and anger over the scare is understandable. Officials have responded by ordering tests on all 170 public housing states and regularly updating results, and with blood checks for worried residents, which have overwhelmed laboratories and have had to be outsourced.

Was at HomePro yesterday. 150cm, colored plank was 200B. Pre-painted was cheaper, but the paint peels off and you'll need to paint again. The colored plank never needs painting.

Let's move this over to the CM forum for more help. A link will be left in this forum also.
Good luck!
Topic Moved.

As airlines adopt policies that make it harder to list their fares on sites like Expedia or Orbitz, the practice of comparison-shopping for flights has gotten harder. Here's why.
Travelers already frustrated by the complexity of booking air travel could soon find it harder to bargain shop for flights online, as major airlines take steps to steer consumers directly to their own sites—effectively cutting out the middleman. And since those middlemen are some of the best-known names on the web—among them Expedia, Orbitz, and Priceline—the trend is attracting attention from members of Congress, some of whom are calling for the government to investigate.
The latest salvo in the controversy came when New York Senator Chuck Schumer, a persistent critic of big airlines, staged a press event in front of a Manhattan luggage store to warn that some discount travel websites “could be gone in one or two years” if consumers can’t get flight and fare information they need to make informed choices. Consumers will pay an additional $6 billion in fares as a result, he said—a prediction that comes from a recent study by the Travel Technology Association, which represents leading online travel agencies and is pushing for Washington to take action.
What set off this latest dust-up—which comes on the heels of Justice Department probe of airline collusion—are the actions of several airlines to limit the role of third-party sellers. Delta reportedly is restricting its fare information on online travel agencies (OTAs) like Hipmunk, while Lufthansa raised eyebrows when it said it would soon begin charging a €16 ($18) fee for tickets bought anywhere other than on its own website, a policy that will also apply to sales on its sister companies, Swiss, Austrian, and Brussels. It also said it wouldn’t allow metasearch sites like Kayak to show any prices lower than those on Lufthansa.com.

Worth a read. Doesn't look good for cheap rooms.

The day Thailand operates a nuclear reactor will mark my last day in the Kingdom.
A country which to date cannot operate a functioning, safe, pedestrian crossing system within its urban areas is not one yet ready for the storage of radioactive material.
Well goodbye then because Thailand already has a functioning nuclear reactor in Chatuchak. It was comissioned in 1961 and has been operating from 1962 until today.
So don't let the door hit your dumbass on the way out.
It's for research only and is very, very small. But yes, it's a reactor. Thailand is not listed as a country with nuclear power capabilities.

Have them visit Chernoybl. Just back from a 2 day tour. What an incredible disaster. Belaurs is still paying some 6% of their GDP to deal with this issue. And will continue to do so for many years to come. Nobody knows the full scope of that disaser, but it was massive.
Thailand should lead the way on greener technologies.

How long is your fence? Perhaps that 2k Baht is going to pay for a crew? I know our construction guy always shows up with 2 or 3 other guys, all busy at work.

You should do a Google search first. A lot of this info is out there. Looks like the venues are spread out all over the place. Security will probably be an issue. Huge crime problem in and around Rio.
Sounds like fun though! FYI. For me, I'd probably base myself in Barra. Copacabana is much more expensive. But potentially more fun! LOL
What to do in Bangkok for a day with a large group of all ages?

Could do a private river cruise? Or dinner cruise? Go to Asiatique and have a late lunch with a river view? Or:
