  1. Last time I did this I just went to the first available immigration desk and gave my new passport plus the old one open at the current extension. I was stamped in and then had my extension transferred at my local immigration office. What or where is 'Desk 3'? I'll be doing exactly the same as the OP on my next trip to the UK. .
  2. Laughable. It was a a mock referendum on self-determination, not a real one; so now the locals can't even talk about self-determination.
  3. The Moderna Bivariant vaccine is available free at the vaccination station in the car park of the Bangkok Hospital Hat Yai, had my jab today. You need to book in advance as supplies are limited. Vaccination for the Moderna jab is on Friday afternoons from 2 till 4pm. https://forms.gle/1tLbE9F5ru6fMvRc6 .
  4. I heard one expert, early on in the search, explain the immense pressures at that depth as the equivalent of being beneath an Empire State building made of lead.
  5. He wasn't even the governor when the photo was taken!
  6. scandal (noun) A publicized incident that brings about disgrace or offends the moral sensibilities of society. A person, thing, or circumstance that causes or ought to cause disgrace or outrage. Damage to reputation or character caused by public disclosure of immoral or grossly improper behaviour; disgrace. I'm finding it hard to see any 'scandal'; the man's a divorcee seemingly no with attachments apart from looking after his son, it's a kiss at a birthday party, they're both fully clothed and consenting adults. Talk about over egging the pudding. I'd say it's the headline and article that are scandalous.
  7. That's my previous experience too, Dells just keep going.
  8. I have two aging Dells, a Precision M4800 and a Precision M3800. The 4800 is almost 10 years old and is used as my desktop, the 3800 is almost 9 years old and is the one I take travelling. A few years ago I switched out the HDDs for SSDs, I've certainly had my money's worth out of them, hopefully they'll last a few more years.
  9. They originally come from Sulawesi, Indonesia, locally known as Ayam Ketawa.
  10. No, that might be the collective noun for OAPs
  11. What's the collective noun for Dorks?
  12. I think he's just confused and emoticon dependent
  13. Thomas Jefferson said "the government you elect is the government you deserve” , unfortunately the politicians the United States elect are inflicted on the rest of the world.
  14. The Rising Sun hairdo's a bit of a give away
  15. My point was that dearth is an antonym of glut.
  16. It's an Elizabethan thing, back in the day Sir Walter was the drip.
  17. This is a problem, is 'crypto' a currency or an investment? The two are not the same. A currency is something you use day to day, you get paid with it and you in turn use it to pay your bills and buy goods and services. For that you need stability, you salary should have a similar value at month end as it did at the start. This allows you to effectively budget and manage your finances. An investment is different, it's something you buy and hold in the expectation of making a profit when you eventually sell. Until crypto actually behaves like a currency it can't be one.
  18. WTF! That's just a graph extrapolation without any reference to reality. .
  19. If you're happy where you live, just identify and fix the holes in your security.
  20. No, it applies to all Thai banks with the exception on Kasikorn, Bangkok Bank and SCB. I expect there is a cumulative value point that will trip an alarm in the system somewhere. .
