  1. That is totally up to who you socialize with. 99% of the Thai's I am friends with and deal with have university degrees, in fact most have two.
  2. I guess I am in the minority. But I am a member of Nok Air, have been for 10 years. I have yet to even have a flight delay of more than 10 minutes in 30+ flights. The leg room is more, the baggage allowances are bigger, and the staff is always friendly. Most of all I have never had a wait to check in more than 10 minutes all the while seeing hundreds of passengers lining up for Air Asia and the worst Thai Lion. Thumbs up for me on Nok. 15 minutes to Don Muang airport, and 10 to get home.
  3. Exactly. She will need bank accounts, salary slips, and land she owns, and proof she will return to Thailand at the end of the holiday.
  4. Still goofy for me. Add the adds obstructing the threads and we have a problem.
  5. Otherwise my ass, you have to throw the stuff out. Better than a fine. Been that way forever. There is no 7x the value and you know it. Show your link.
  6. Free education in Australia. Here at the better international school on Phuket they will be paying roughly $2500 Australian dollars a month at The British School for kindergarten and grade 1.
  7. The first inverter type units came out in 1981.
  8. Sorry but you are so very wrong. From the Thai Customs Website. Importation of Alcoholic Beverages and Cigarettes Customs Procedure for arriving passengers at the Nothing to Declare or Green Channel Customs Procedure for arriving passengers at the Goods to Declare or Red Channel Importation of Alcoholic Beverages and Cigarettes The alcoholic beverages and cigarettes exempted from duty are listed as follows: No more than 200 cigarettes or 250g of tobacco or 250g of all types combined No more than 1 litre of alcoholic beverage The excess quantities of cigarettes, tobacco or alcoholic beverages must be dropped in the box provided by Customs, otherwise prosecution will be carried out.
  9. Athletes who abuse testosterone and other androgenic steroids have a sharply increased risk of high blood pressure, heart attack, and stroke. And in high doses, testosterone can have a negative effect on cardiac risk factors, including HDL ("good") cholesterol levels. Harvard Health
  10. Where is your home country? As Thailand has one of the worst and most expensive wines for sale I have ever encountered. Either in restaurants or for sale in markets.
  11. Have we ever had a "tourist" here who knows less about the country? You have a bunch of notes you scribbled on a paper bag you found while walking down a dirty soi. 🤣
  12. So George you are back again. You said you were coming business class on PAL. Any photos of that experience? Also you were so disappointed with your accommodation last time it would be interesting to see your new place. I bet you have done really well this time.
  13. I see two problems and they are both mental not physical. You are a hypochondriac to the worst degree. Then you have become a cyberchondriac as well. Its actually sad now you are so far gone.
  14. I like this. From the previous election, now we can add felony convictions and an attempt to overthrow the election results. I simply cant believe people fall for this guy.
  15. JHC, are you full of it or what? Pure panic mode as Kamala's lead continues to increase. Just get down and dirty.
  16. Musk does not know sh*t about politics, but Space X is one incredible company he has built. Forget Tesla.. Space X, and Star Link are the future.
  17. I was 45 and my wife 38 when our twins were born. The doctor scared the heck out of my wife by bringing up the fact that having a kid with an older parent can result in Downs Syndrome. Even just one parent. 45 was great and I was active with them until they moved to America for university at 17. Still can keep up with them, but perhaps not if I had had them 10 years later. We were shown this survey from Norway There appears to be an increase risk (perhaps 20 to 30%) of Down syndrome associated with older fathers, independent of maternal age effect. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1048652/#:~:text=There appears to be an,independent of maternal age effect.
  18. He wasnt!! Going back 35 years to a divorce. Well done, love to look in your closet...
  19. Hope he was now that I think about it...🙃
  20. Give me a break. He has been married to Patty Scialfla for 33 years and has 3 loving kids.
  21. In your Kool Aid chugging opinion. But dont forget you have the mega chart topper Kid Rock basically alone supporting Trump.
  22. oh boy, Citing an initial report from the DLT, Mr Suriya said the bus involved in Tuesday’s fire was a single-deck bus, not a double-decker, and was equipped with the required safety equipment onboard. The emergency door at the rear was functional, he said.

  23. Must be your favorite by your post. No my wife of 33 years is still 168 centimeters and 55 kilos.
  24. I prefer the chunkier type so no blender necessary. Stays fresh about 2 weeks sealed in a glass jar in the fridge.
  25. Make your own salsa, cheaper and better. Tomatoes, onion, chilis, garlic, salt, coriander "Pak Chee" here and lemon or lime juice.
