Mostly muck too, plus some future stomach ache prawns.

I'd like to know this too, my wife has difficulty sleeping, amongst other things, and I want her to give oil a go, anybody here have a similar situation?

"The reason that prices need to be raised is connected to the four noble truths of Buddhism," he ranted incoherently. What an <deleted>. I know there are some devout Buddhists in Thailand, but most people use it just to gain something.. Oh, hang on...

It always was just a dream. If the job was to be undertaken it would be like painting the Forth bridge(in the past, by the time they finished painting the bridge they'd have to start painting it again). So maybe we should be thankful that this cash cow has now been eliminated. Being realistic, none of us alive now would have seen the end of the removal of cables from Bangkok streets.

As it stands, it's 16-2 against the government buying the jets, seems about right.

Another questing worth asking: If you were in line for a huge 'big face' demonstration, along with lots and lots of money in your secret bank account, would you make sure the deal got as close to the final stages of agreement as possible?

Who knows? Poll is here: https://aseannow.com/topic/1268579-should-the-thai-govt-buy-f-35-jets-from-the-us/

It's none of our business, but should the Thai govt. buy F-35 jets from the US?

If every normal adult person in the country was asked if they want or need these jets, the answer would be 'No'.

I'm looking to buy a 'Standard' hot & cold water dispenser from Lazada, I usually buy 1.5L bottles direct from Singha but the sheer amount of plastic used, along with lifting all those bottles through the house every couple of months, plus the storage space used, has me thinking that a dispenser is a better option all round. I understand it'll use electric but we're constantly filling the fridge up with room temp Singha bottles, so I don't think it'll make much difference to the leccy bill. My question is this: has anybody bought one of these? What was your experience with it? Do they last a long time? Can they be easily fixed if a pump/motor fails? There are many different types of water dispenser on the market, but sadly most of them are plastic boxes, and will deteriorate/yellow in this climate(or just get fallen into by a teenage boy), and I don't want to contribute any more plastic to landfill(the oceans) than is absolutely necessary. This is why I've got my eye on this 'Standard' brand. It looks good enough in the pics, the reviews are fair, but I'd like to hear from anybody here who has one, and if they would recommend it.
