  1. Last time I changed mine I bought the new one from near the checkout at my local small Lotus. That might save you a trip to your local computer shop.
  2. Bus station office was still open as of yesterday. And it was packed!
  3. And you think they'll see the light of day when returned here? Perhaps now Thailand will return a certain jade carving to Laos?
  4. So you prefer immigrants to rape white children (Rochdale among many others) or threaten mob-handed to kill a teacher (Batley, the teacher is still in hiding), or stab three people (my home city of Nottingham) or throw corrosive liquid over a woman and her children (Clapham). Not to mention killing priests in their church, driving cars into people, planting bomds that kill children at a pop concert et c. et c. Such cultural diversity we can do without, thank you.

    Isaan Funerals

    the first thing we knew about a neighbour dying was when a pickup laden with huge speakers turned up and began to play sad music all day, full volume.
  6. Presumably as compared to Germany in the early 1930s.
  7. +Far be it for me to even attempt to correct you, but the poster said 'passbook" not "passport". Why would your embassy want your bank passbook?
  8. apostled? Anything to do with Mathew, Mark, Luke and John?
  9. That show was the best at everything, especially the divine Emilia.
  10. The problem will be receiving the voting form from your home constituency and then getting it back to them in time to count. A proxy would get round that, but do you trust your proxy to vote the way you want?
  11. Your embassy will be informed, but how do they know who is your next of kin? And if you are married here then surely your wife is your next of kin? For example I am from the midlands of England, happily married here for 23 years and my son lives in Scotland. How does the British Embassy know that or how to get in touch with him?
  12. The only person who cannot be a witness to a will is a person who will inherit something from that will, ie a beneficiary. They can be relatives, but must not also be beneficiaries. So a wife could be a witness to her husband's will, but only if she does not inherit anything from him in the will. Unlikely, I know. The witnesses are there only to witness that the person signing the will is the right person. The witnesses have no right to know the contents of the will. They must witness the signature as it happens and then immediately themselves sign in the presence of all three people.
  13. I slow down but I have stopped stopping at crossings because the cars behind me just overtake, and the bikes go round me. It's more dangerous for the pedestrian.
  14. Those two floppy discs are why your modern main drive now starts at C: because those two were the A: and B: drives.
  15. This is why I let my wife check in with her details while I wait in the car!
  16. I am nowhere near the edge, as you put it. The problem is immigration's insistence on me receiving at least 65k baht per month, not per whenever the pension service can be bothered.
  17. I've stopped buying it. I suspect it's made up of one part genuine hom mali to give you the smell when you open the pack, and then two parts el cheapo to bulk it out.
  18. The last thing the ruling families want is a well educated underclass asking where their share of the national pie is. That share is reserved for the offspring of the ruling class, usually educated abroad.
  19. If it arrives at all, and the first thing you know about it is when your pension doesn't arrive this month.
