AFAIK there is an initial period whereby Lazada automatically select the courier, the seller has no option. Then after a while, the seller gains the ability to select the method. I don’t know if this is true or not. I was told by a seller, that they had no choice to use xxx but in the future they can offer a courier of my choice.

You can only find peers if there are some .. did you go back to the website and check the seeders, what is your client (utorrent) saying? Are there any seeder? Maybe worth checking and downloading qbittorrent, which is a better client imho.

I didnt notice any in Macro, but I always go before they allow sales. The bakery supplies / drinks wholesaler "Keng" on Lao Na Dii Road has a few bottles in their fridge - At the very least, a selection from Phuket brewery and another one company.

I don't remember - @seedy says its on TPB, but its not worth going out of the way to find. It's OK .. but I think there are better mentions here worth catching up with first. Oh, @Mutt Daeng There is Season 03 of Darkness, those who kill returning at the end of January, The Scandinavian original.

It's something I need to look into - I can contact the insurance company, now I have passed my driving test ????

Yup .. Just to add my two baht. We lived around the corner from the Kerry depot in Hat Yai - We had an excellent delivery driver (bike) same guy for about 2-3 years.He was employed directly by Kerry, afaik. Now in Khon Kaen, we get great service from Flash, usually the same guy. The Lazada guy, we got him trained now, if it's really late - we told him to chill out and bring the parcel the next day. I feel sorry for the guy, I guess somedays he has to pass, other days he is making a special trip for me. I can wait for parcels, if there is some effort on his part. But like Kerry, I get a message on the phone at 9:00 AM telling me the delivery has arrived in the depot, and will arrive today, 11:00 I get another message telling its out for delivery. At 3:00 PM a call, "err .. its a bit far for us, can we bring tomorrow" "no sorry, im waiting on the parcel, I have been waiting in all day because you sent me a message at 11:00 AM telling me it was going to be delivered today" - silence .. someone else comes on the line "tomorrow na" and I repeat the same line .. so please deliver as you agreed. The next thing the Lazada app reports that I didn't pick up the phone or the customer has rescheduled the delivery, which is balls, I wish they would just be honest. I think @D M G explains it all well.

Why would they send their passports to Ko Tao? ;D I know it does happen .. there was a report a few years ago, the agent got hold of some stickers, I believe, and yes, really 100 years?

This is exactly what I wanted to hear.

The post was mostly about the NCB rather than a spray job. So, you don’t claim on the insurance for these odd jobs? I have been told by others (Thai and westerner) that the NCB Isn’t worth worrying about .. true or false? I would like a 50% on my insurance for starters. And i did suggest holding on a while before we push ahead, but it’s just really annoying on an otherwise immaculate truck.

Did anyone see Manuel Gottsching died yesterday .. https://youtu.be/ys0HyevZpQg https://youtu.be/khejrbgdc4w Legend

agents .. DIY rubber stamp .. ok .. good bar story.

It’s just a horrid inhumane experience - I remember doing it In Vientiane, queuing by the side of the road in the mid-day heat nearly dying. As far as I remember, you had to queue to collect a number to retrieve your passport. It’s not like the technology isn’t in service, I just booked my driving test sight test, through an app on my phone which gives me a time to show up. There is no need to be standing on the street like cattle - some agencies like the land office and LTO really got their act together over Covid, seems like immigration in most parts and Thai consulates took the time to chill out with the lack of applicants.

They say that you now need to apply in person. They have removed the services of places like banana, which did a pretty competent job at checking all the documents up until 9.00 pm at night, before they submitted them to the consulate and moved the log jam to outside the consulate at 7:00 am. The demand may have increased, but they still didn’t prepare a place to deal with the existing traffic - Its the same every time. They were processing way over 50 a day before Covid and the requirements shouldn’t have changed that much. ”How many applicants do we have per day Somchai?” 500, Sir ”OK, let’s give them 100 chairs and three windows that can process 100 applicants a day, that will be fine”

Just came to say, after the initial disappointment of an absent “Armand” hotel manager character, I really enjoyed the second series of the white lotus, a couple of twists in last episode and yesss! It’s been signed for a third series. I just started a Belgian series Fils De which came recommended, was quite hard to find due to the naming. Seems to get mixed reviews - but fills the gap for a running gritty Euro gangster series. I think the last good crime series I caught was S02 of Snabba Cash or gangs of London.

I’m in no way experienced - but Neem worked for me this past year. I started growing leafy veg and immediately attracted a swarm of butterflies, have started drawing up plans and costing for a mesh greenhouse.

This morning the wife found a radio tower with metal ropes terminating in the ground. The front wheel arch received a bit of scratching as she rubbed up against the steel rope. Not the end of the world, but the truck is only 8 months old so we will look to get it repaired. Insurance is “standard” Toyota insurance that came with the car. If it was back in the UK, I think I would probably pay for it out of my pocket, fearing a loss of no claims bonus, saving very little after the excess, etc. Has anyone had a similar experience, I know a lot is dependent on the policy and the quote, but what’s the general rule of thumb for minor damage? Use the policy or pay out of pocket? Is the NCB worth even worrying about? I’m not even sure if she should have come home. Are you supposed to call the insurance man on site?

I had a similar experience with my visa - long story - I wasted a couple of hours while the manager (who wouldn’t believe my and the helplines explanation of the yearly extension stamp) tried to call immigration, who wouldn’t pick up the phone. She told me, even tho I had 5-6 concurrent and valid extension stamps, that I should go to Laos to get another visa because mine was out of date. ???? I don’t have any issues with these guys checking my visa status. These bank managers / supervisors have so many beanos and training seminars, what’s the harm in immigration coming to one of them and just giving them a run down for an hour, explaining the procedure.

I thought it was a given that the flat rolled out crispy squid was prepared in formalin? I was to told years ago. Not that it appeals, it smells like a rotten hookers knickers.

If the OP uses Google, he will find a couple of agencies in Phuket and Chiang Mai that I found without any problem which advertise themselves as language schools, they clearly state on their website that there is no need to attend class. Unbelievable really. (well, it’s totally believable but ..) - These places operate with impunity, I don’t think he needs to worry at all about a surprise visit.

Surprisingly, there’s one Indian roti seller at the 7-11 in rural Khon Kaen, we are about 30km from town, he’s been there, every night for a year already. I really don’t think the average Thai knows enough about immigration law or work permits to report him, tbh, the nearest police box is 10km down the road and there is one high ranking guy who lives in the village, that probably just wants an easy life. It probably doesn’t dawn on them that he’s illegal, besides if he wasn’t there there would be no roti and that would be a major loss to the community. People ask why do I not help my wife with her business, when she is lugging boxes about moaning, and it surprises them when I tell them the conditions of my visa.

I’m surprised how many Indians and Burmese work out in the villages - Indians are money lenders (idk, maybr have some kind of residence) or have a Roti cart outside 7-11s You see posts here about westerners scared to cut their own grass, if you look closely there are Burmese that have stalls at the travelling markets in Issan. I don’t know how you can get a work permit to sell coconuts on the side of the road, but my Burmese buddy does it.

Anything regarding LED .. https://btf-lighting.aliexpress.com/store/1051119 Are you using WLED to control?

Actually, I have been surprised how wages have risen recently. My friends tell me that they are working agency jobs for around 40K, some are non-degree holders and have been avoiding the teachers permit waiver. I still don't think it's enough to compete with inflation, and the added complications from kurusapa. I don't think its enough to encourage me to return. I see a rise in NNES positions available on fb at still horrendously low figures, and university gigs have always been low paid but with free accommodation and a very light work schedule.

Good call - Smile was a good view.

There are a few ways, as mentioned. Yes, you can download the VPNs helper app onto your smart TV, then turn it on and off as required. This is the simplest method. I have a firestick, with surfshark VPN helper app to watch iPlayer - it automatically connects to the UK server on startup. You could do this for the states, either automatically or manually. I run another VPN on my computer, which I manually switch on and off as required.
