  1. Rubbish! Anyone who launched a nuclear strike would be extremely stupid; suicidally stupid, and Putin is not stupid! If he nukes any country he knows he will get the same back with interest! Have you never heard of the Nuclear Deterrent?
  2. September 23 I flew with Eva to BKK and was unable to reserve a seat at online check in within 24 hours of flight time, and no aisle seats available at airport check-in so I was stuck with the online check in seat that I was allocated. On the return flight I managed to secure an aisle seat for free when selecting within 48 hours of the flight time which is when online check-in is available I believe. So I concluded that I left it too late on the outbound flight.
  3. Stick to bottled beer, Beerlao is exceptionally good, and you should be safe.
  4. Only a small fan too. You can see it behind them. Turn off the fan and see if the Meter wheel is still spinning.
  5. I suffer from IBS and my doctor prescribed me 10mg amatryptaline for long flights so that I don't have to keep going to the toilet. You maybe know that Amatryptaline in larger doses is an antidepressant but has a side effect of calming the bowel. So it is prescribed and works as such in a a lower 10mg dose. It also seems to work with me as a sedative and over 18 years has always helped me sleep on my flights to and from Thailand. And It is available over the counter at pharmacies in Thailand. My flight routine is a can of beer before the in-flight meal, a glass of wine with the meal and then take my amatryptaline with 400 mg ibuprofen to kill the pain of the sleeping in seat yoga...555.
  6. I think the title "Thailand goes 'all out' rather than 'all in' on the homosexual movement" would be more appropriate and less off-putting... to me at least...555.
  7. Too fekkin late now innit!!! Y'all and, sadly, the World, must live with Trump's continuous puke of lies for the next 4 years!
  8. No mate! I do appreciate it when comparing it to the miserable claustrophobic s*** hole that is my home London Heathrow airport which makes me feel ashamed to be British. I feel sorry for visitors having to use it. Suvarnabhumi is spacious light and airy inside. My only complaints are that it is so noisy and a bit hot sometimes , but I know where to go to escape these issues when waiting for flights.
  9. Let's hope they have some environmental sense which leads them to intervene before we destroy everything living on this planet and ultimately ourselves .
  10. Agreed 100%. Don't worry about the banks' appalling exchange rate which is offered at ATM's Worldwide and not just in Thailand. You are insane to accept this DCC which is a complete scam! ATMs word it deceptively in such a way that you think you must accept it to get your cash. But just click 'proceed without conversion' or the similar wording that they use. Then you will receive the much much better MasterCard or VIsa exchange rate, whichever your card is minus of course your home country bank's charge and the extortionate Thai bank ATM charge. The Thai bank's exchange rate is completely irrelevant when withdrawing from an ATM.
  11. I am an old dog at 72 so I hope I don't smell like one...555. I'm actually very fortunate in that, unlike most men which are normal, me and my armpits have always smelled very little when dirty or sweaty even after sport. But I do have some towels which get to smell like old dog after very little use. Even normal washing fails to shift it for long. Only a 90° wash seems to get rid of it completely. Anyway deodorant should solve the problem for anyone. So there is no excuse being smelly.
  12. You think that trump is not self-serving? He has proved himself to be totally corrupt, immoral, a compulsive liar, mentally unstable, and he has proved himself to have no respect for democracy and wants to be a dictator like Putin or Kim Jon Un. Is that the change you want? Do you want to live under a regime like Russia, North Korea,or China where you are totally controlled? When democracy is lost, the very nature of fascism makes it virtually impossible to get it back.
  13. I agree with this 100% and I just cannot understand it! What does this say about the huge number of US people that support him? I find it deeply troubling!
  14. This really cracks me up and shows how absurd the Thai mindset is! How the hell can anyone predict the starting date of any season? And what is the point of announcing it anyway? 🤣 This is nature! Seasons come and go at around the same times. They're starting an ending times are approximate and overlap. Like so much else in Thailand; totally illogical and absurd...😂. If you didn't laugh you'd have to cry....😂😭😂.
  15. Why were you taking those photos anyway? Spas on balconies! "Hi don't believe it"!!!
  16. I had it 18 months ago with the vaccine offered to over 70s in the UK just after I left for Thailand! It is not nice and had a lingering post herpetic neuralgia. Nerve pain which was worse than the rash. I recently discovered that research shows that after shingles there is a 30% increase in risk of heart attack. So it is definitely a good idea to get it. I have since had the 1st vaccine dose and will have the second this week.
  17. I have just started using WU because the exchange rate and charges are much better than Wise who I have used ever since they offered transfers. But WU's website and app. are chaotic and irrational in how they work giving wrong info. and failing to tell me when funds should be sent to them. Last time I used their 'new' direct bank transfer as it offered a fractionally better exchange rate but never again as it ended up trying to send 4 payments of £1000 instead of one. But my bank were suspicious and stopped the payments until they checked with me. However the one that went through arrived the next day as did the previous 2 transfers with no receiving charges by Kasikorn bank (Same as with Wise). And the upside of their chaotic website and app. is that all 3 transfers were free of charge as 'first time transfers', but even if charged they would have only been 99p... 555. So as the £ exchange rate continues to fall and is abysmal once again I will persevere with the WU chaos...555.
  18. The 100ml limit on liquids etc., and the need to separate them is being lifted at many airports internationally. Does anyone know please, preferably from experience, if this has happened yet at Suvarnabhumi, Don Muang or regional airports, for either international or domestic flights?
  19. Due to the lousy education there is no rational thought enabling clear thinking and forward planning. Everything is just trial and error.
  20. Corruption in Thailand? Wow what a surprise!
  21. So whats new? Thais are already buying s h i t loads off of Lazada and Shoppee.
  22. The people's choice! Thai democracy and it's very best!
  23. So has anyone actually listened to the interview with Fred Trump? No-one has commented on it yet. I hope y'all will read the book and pass it around for other potential Trump voters to read before November. More here on YouTube as there are probably many Trump supporters who cannot read...😂:
  24. I should have said whoever he or she is.
