All foreigners must be reported to immigration. (TM 30) The law has been in place more than 40 years. Maybe read up on it? https://www.immigration.go.th/en/?page_id=1690

Chronic Acid Reflux.
I raised the head of the bed by about 3 inches. No more acid reflux. Drinking water before bed helps as well.

Water rationing starts 1st July
Do not worry. Rain should stop tomorrow and things should be better by Wednesday. We had a good downpour Friday night for a couple of hours and now we are back to drizzle. Samui needs a couple of months of this before we see improvements but as you say, plants are happy. https://www.windguru.cz/30397

FedEx or DHL or any best mail express service near Onnut station
I cannot say for sure in your neck of the woods, but here on Samui, neighbours, friends and myself all avoid using DHL. Many times in the past, there are additional 'taxes and charges' that they will not provide a receipt for. They are agents, not the real deal so there is no comeback.

What was the outcome when your daughter found out your TGF was younger than her?
This is not just a TG thing. My daughter stopped speaking to me when I married my second wife who was only a few of years older then her. Wife #2 was English.

Foreign Beer In The UK.
Shepherd Neame used to be one of my customers back in the day when I had a proper job. Really nice people and excellent beers. I am not surprised that the Singha won if they are brewing it. https://www.shepherdneame.co.uk/beer

Patong Police Investigate Complaints about Foreign Barbers
Well said. ???? It has been the law here for at least the last 50 years. Just that a lot of foreigners ignore it.

Giant Centipedes
Definitely be careful of these things. They bite - big time. I trod on one by accident a few years back. (It was at night.) The front of my foot covered half of it (It was about 7 inches long) but the front half of the beastie rolled back and bit me. Not poisonous but the infection......???? The next morning, I could see the infection in my leg - heading north and VERY painful. I was on strong antibiotics for 10 days.

Artificial rainmaking accelerated to tackle drought throughout Prachuap Khiri Khan
We have just had a few light showers here on Samui all year. I tried to perform a rain dance last night but the neighbours told me to put my clothes back on and go inside. ????

Florida lawyer, 42, is deported to the US and put under house arrest after he 'paid to rape four children' in Cambodia
It is usually the parents who are desperate for money. I have read of a number of cases where this has happened in the Philippines, Cambodia and Indonesia. Sometimes, one of the parents will record the terrible acts for the adult committing them. Sad and very evil.

At least Prawit does not say or do anything stupid when he is asleep. Leave him be.

Chinese man arrested in Chon Buri for using fake registration plate on Bentley

Nigel Farage bank account shut for falling below wealth limit
I would think that the bank has every right to defend itself from the muck being spread by the failed politician.
