  1. Not a week ago. That thread is over a year old, but it does contain the answers.
  2. Thailand Post EMS takes 5-6 days (posted in Sattahip, delivered to Liverpool) and costs 1,000 baht. Might take a day less if posted in Bangkok.
  3. Not my own experience but ... Years ago someone posted on Thaivisa that he and his mate got a mototaxi each from one side of Pattaya to the other. As the taxis set off his mate shouted "first one there gets 1,000 baht" Still makes me laugh years later.
  4. As far as I know the only place that will accept a Sealand passport is Pimlico ...
  5. Silicon carbide on Lazada https://www.lazada.co.th/tag/silicon-carbide/?spm=a2o4m.searchlist.search.d_go.534d4fb1dltsAQ&q=silicon carbide&catalog_redirect_tag=true
  6. Seems that the village headman should be looking for better alternatives for his parishioners who need to dry their rice. But, it surprises me that a local man was not expecting to come across piles of rice in the road at the end of rice harvesting season. When I first experienced this tradition, near to my wife's land in Surin, it took me no more than 2 minutes to adjust my driving accordingly. Anyway, RIP young man - 38 is way too young to die.
  7. I thought that the previous government had stopped the practice of selling lottery tickets over their official price.
  8. I haven't had a spam fritter for over 50 years, but this thread is tempting me ... maybe I'll try the healthy version ;)
  9. Maybe they think you need to ask the water Goddess to help you let go of past transgressions and negative thoughts. But I think @nikmar got it right ^
  10. I think it's possible that there's a typo. The paragraph you quoted makes far more sense if "days" is replaced by "minutes".
  11. On that basis the police would never investigate a murder.
  12. Regarding digging costs, on my wife's land the local authorities dug a pond for free and took the soil (clay) for local projects (I guess raising land for building roads). Might be worth asking if such deals are available in your area.
  13. That's combinations of 2, 3 and 5. I'll give it a try.
  14. My dream of winning the Thai lottery would be financing my kid through university, maybe uni in the UK, as she has UK citizenship. 6 million Baht would get Mildred through art school and uni here easily, and with no debt to worry about. My fingers are crossed for a win this week.
  15. Decathlon. https://www.decathlon.co.th/en-TH/c/men/bottoms/underwear.html
  16. I follow ... but I've not had a notification for several weeks.
  17. I have been able to reproduce a reasonable stottie cake, and boiled ham is easy enough to make, but my peas pudding efforts are never up to scratch. I would (almost) trade my first-born for a kilo of Jersey Royals.
