Temperature inside the poly box is hardly affected by the outside temperature, but I nearly lost some seedlings when I forgot to put shade over them. I didn't look at them until mid day and they looked very sad ...

I decided to transfer all the seedlings to soil pots. I started with just potting 2 but they were doing so well that I was tempted to pot them all. I have about 30 more tomato seeds (beef steak from a packet) starting to germinate in foam cubes - nothing to show yet. My only tomato plant has developed these markings on its leaves. Does anyone know the cause and treatment?

For our anniversary my wife suggested that we should recreate the time we first met. I agreed, it was a great idea. So, we went separately to the hotel bar and, while I was sitting alone, she came over to me and said "Hey handsome, can I buy you a drink?" I said "F*** off, I'm not falling for that one again!"

Probably a typo ... The lower esophageal sphincter (LES) is a high-pressure zone located where the esophagus meets the stomach and protects the esophagus from the reflux of gastric contents.

Yes. Mine has been paid into Wise since 2022.

True, and desperately needed for those of us expats who have had our UK bank accounts closed. E.g. - Barclays closed my UK account after 40+ years of never being in the red, just because I was honest about my new address in Thailand. If I need to book a flight home to the UK I now need to transfer my GBP pensions to my Thai bank account , (via Wise) then pay for the flight in Baht from my Bangkok bank account- that's two international transfers and about 5-10% extra on top of the current inflated flight prices.

Johnny is a British slang term for a condom.

Office of the Consumer Protection Board (OCPB) Thailand may be able to help if your visit to the Samsung Service Centre doesn't resolve the issue. https://complaint.ocpb.go.th/# I have no personal experience, but I'm sure there have been positive reports from members here.

It should be banned, if only for Dick van Dyke's awful imitation of the Cockney accent.

Spelled brain wrong.

The new Sukhumvit road, through Jomtien, Ban Amphur, Bang Saray, Sattahip, and beyond, is now an 8-10 lane urban motorway. I live in Bang Saray and journey times are massively reduced either north or south, which is great (for me). However, IMO, it's absolutely unsuitable for cycling (nor for slow moving sa-ling, kids on scooters, etc.) - and no allowance was made for those vehicles when the new road was planned. Also, pedestrian crossings/bridges are few and far between, so I often see pedestrians chancing their luck across the 4/5 lanes in 80-120 kph traffic. Can you imagine pedestrians being permitted to walk in the roadway on an UK motorway or German Autobahn! I'm afraid that we will read of a lot more deaths on this new road.

At last some good news for Australians. Meanwhile, we Brits have to struggle to find Thai ladies brave enough to endure our manhoods.

If I walk into KFC and order a meal in most places the price will include free refills of coke/lemon tea/etc. If I order a KFC meal on Grab, and my win rider pours himself a coke/lemon tea while he waits for my order, then fills a second cup to bring home for me, what harm has been done? I just hope he got a new straw.

Yes. This is "news" from 2020. I believe that the hotel received a lot of negative publicity for their over-reaction and (IIRC) has since changed name. Having said that, the guy who posted the bad review was (IMO) quite a dick. He brought a bottle of gin(?) from the 7/11 and expected to drink it in the hotel restaurant (not in his room) - then he was upset when the management challenged him and asked for a corkage fee.

Yes. The instructions are easy to follow.

If you took up gardening to help your recovery, you might send pictures of pint glasses filled with tomatoes or flowers, to show your change of habit.

Seems ok for the price. I had to adjust the belt as it was moving to the left - probably due to my awkward gait, as I have hip and knee problems. An easy fix.

Yes, from the same store.

I just took delivery of the same machine and it works fine. Plug in and switch on - display lights up. Hold the remote close to the display and hold down the power button. It beeps several times then stops beeping - took at least 10 seconds of holding down the button. The belt started at speed 1.0 without me pressing any other button. Use the + button to increase speed. Hope this helps

It's a pity that I can only give one upvote to this post.
