  1. That's scary. When I am in Thailand, I often go "on a night out" with my wife and friends, stopping by some restaurant and sometimes followed by dessert at another place. Should we worry about getting our drinks spiked with some deadly poison on our next holiday?
  2. This article caught my attention because I have some special-issue Thai coins stashed away. The Panan Jewellery shop mentioned in the article could get some publicity out of this if it weren't for the fact that it can't be found on Google Maps nor on the Worldwide Web. The nearest thing to it I can find is Panan Pearl and Gems. https://share.google/rqrrzanWhGmtcn2HP @snoop1130 or anyone else who knows: Is it this shop?
  3. Thank you, @Upnotover and @KhunLA That prompted me to puzzle what SRT might stand for, but with the help of the image posted by Upnotover I figured out that it is the State Railway of Thailand. 🙏
  4. What does this symbol on the SkyTrain map mean? What type of public transportation? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1piycH5ncAnrGhETW93BlK5sRpdglMql4/view?usp=drivesdk
  5. Meta, Thai police shut down 150,000 scam accounts10 hours ago - Technology Meta Axios Meta disabled more than 150,000 accounts tied to Southeast Asia-based cyber scam centers. The global crackdown led to 21 arrests, the company said. Why it matters: These centers power many large-scale romance, cryptocurrency and law enforcement impersonation scams targeting Americans.

  6. I never search for NEW or UNREAD posts. How does one do that? I'd like to test it to see if I find your topic that way.
  7. Let me think. Where was I in 1963? Was I even already born in 1963? Where is my passport when I need it?
  8. Could it be because this case did not happen in the UK? What do you think? Could it be that your post was off-topic UK-bashing?
  9. I don't doubt it, but probably not in a bulky and heavy safe.
  10. It is the scrotum that needs freedom of movement. if your pants (US English: underpants) press your scrotum tightly against your body, this immobilises the ligaments and muscles on which the scrotum hangs almost completely. As a result, they atrophy and get weak and no longer can fully perform there intended functions once the scrotum is released from this confinement: the scrotum progressively hangs lower. @Sheryl Have I got this right? Free the scrotum! Let it dangle freely always or as often as possible.
  11. No personal experience on my part but my wife switched from a phone using the Android operating system to an iPhone last month and says it's like having to learn a new language. She is in Bangkok at the moment and taking daily lessons at the nearby Apple store in IconSiam.
  12. Are you dure about this? The news article to which you posted a link doesn't cite any law on this subject.
  13. Where's the video? I am asking because "sexual activity" probably means different things to different people. I remember reading a news article on this forum a few years ago showing the photo of a Thai politician with the display of the mobile phone in his hand showing a young lady in a bikini and the text saying that he was watching pornography during a session of the house of representatives. To some Thai people, a couple walking or standing hand in hand are considered to be engaging in sexual activity. I kid you not.
  14. I was in Berlin last year and no-one questioned my motives, even though I was holding no official office and never had. I am unaware of any ban or restriction for nationals of the United States of America to travel to Germany in general or Berlin in particular.
  15. Thank you very much for that. Just learnt something new (learning English as a foreign language). Until now, I took CPI only to stand for Consumer Price Index.
