  1. What's the betting that, if Thailand dropped US import tariffs to 0%, we would see no change in prices in the shops.
  2. Smashed, from the outside. The debris is all over the bed and floor.
  3. She's not happy with the currant policies of Labour
  4. There never was a client list. We are all suffering from the Mandela Effect ... https://www.britannica.com/science/Mandela-effect
  5. She should satisfy the netizens by wearing only a hairnet and apron - for hygiene purposes.
  6. I learned something new today. I always thought that Mumbai and Bombay were the same city.
  7. I guess it can only apply to people holding dual citizenship.
  8. How the heck do these guys afford supercars in their 40's ...
  9. Speaking as a Brit ... IMO you French should be permitted to import your bread, cheese, and wine to Thailand without any impediments.
  10. Yes, I did. I have corrected it.
  11. British citizens can apply for a visa on arrival in Bahrain ... so far, so good https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/bahrain/entry-requirements But there is no visa on arrival for Brits in China ... https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/china/entry-requirements I wish you the best of luck. Let us know how it goes.
  12. Any comment about the blackmailer who even pretended to be pregnant to get money from him? There seems to be not much criticism of her in this thread - and it turns out not to be her first rodeo.
  13. The underground lottery is very popular because you can choose your own 2 or 3 numbers and also choose your own stake (from 10 baht upwards). Choosing 2 numbers gives odds of 100/1 and a win normally pays 60x the stake Choosing 3 numbers gives odds of 1000/1 and a win normally pays 450x the stake This is a lot more than the payout for 2 or 3 numbers on the official lottery but, of course, does not include the chance of a 6M baht jackpot. A couple of years ago I won 90,000 baht for a 200 baht stake on 3 numbers (actually my total stake was 1,200 as I bet 200 on all 6 combinations of my 3 numbers).
  14. Definitely confusing, but true that each ticket would win 6 million. Here's an example of a man winning 96 million with 16 tickets (added prizes increased it to 144 million) https://thethaiger.com/news/national/man-wins-144-million-baht-in-thailands-lottery
  15. No, the winnings are not shared, each ticket would win 6 million baht.
  16. Recently, I used an agent (Key Visa, Pattaya) to handle my UK passport renewal, as I did not fancy two trips to Bangkok to do it myself. I just went into their office with my passport and fee (nothing else) and received notification of my new passport about 4 weeks later (IIRC - 12,500, including the passport cost). For an extra fee of 2,500 baht the agent had my stamps transferred. I didn't need to provide any additional paperwork - I just transferred the fee from my WISE account to the agent. A few days later I collected my new passport from the agent - all done - no hassle for me.
  17. According to the OP they were not successful transactions (as far as the victim was concerned) ...
