  1. At 4am in the morning! They should name and shame the pervert who filmed them, then fine him for making a pornographic movie.
  2. Yes it's true, if you're a millionaire you can get the best healthcare.
  3. Two days no rain and the forecast is for sunshine into the New Year - seems the NE Monsoon is over for this year.
  4. It's Clash not The Clash.
  5. "...research shows that for those without underlying conditions, pregnant, or under 12, consuming 3-4 cups (coffee) a day can help to reduce the risks of Alzheimer’s, certain cancers, Type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases." https://www.marketwatch.com/story/great-news-for-coffee-lovers-it-can-be-really-good-for-you-heres-how-to-boost-the-benefits-of-your-beans-11669402283?mod=article_inline Pick your study, plenty to choose from.
  6. Well you can't, there's still a restriction on liquids.
  7. Does it need to be an invoice? A letter from the hospital explaining the teatment and cost might be sufficient. UK banks are now very proactive in trying to protect customers from scams due to the increasing number of cases. Significantly, these often result in poor publicity attaching to the banks when they refuse to compensate for their customer's stupidity. I use Wise to make transfers from the UK and agree with other posters that they're quick, efficient and cheaper than UK banks. But those are transfers to accounts in my name, there may well be similar questions and reticence from Wise if sending a substantial sum to someone elses bank account.
  8. He means the country you wish to phone, see image, change it to USA.
  9. No deposit paid, nothing lost, nothing to report - chalk it up to experience and move on. Where was this anyway, it's posted in the southern Thailand forum, was this Hat Yai??
  10. The roads are plenty wet down here with lots of surface water. But if the vehicle "had been nothing but trouble, recently wobbling all over the road and handling unpredictably", he shouldn't really have driven it at all, or at least at not at any speed.
  11. With the NE monsoon every November-December heavy rain and flooding are normal in the south at this time of year; that's why traditonal houses are built on stilts.
  12. Uncle Tu flew down yesterday to offer his best platitudes.
  13. Curious, I didn't need to visit the bank either to initially set up the KMA app, unlike KBank, nor when I changed phones 5 months ago. Note that my phone number was the one registered when I opened my account and used for bank sms notifications and online banking long before the app came along. .
  14. I recently moved both KBank and Krungsri apps to a new phone, same SIM/mobile number so no problems, but as noted in the reply above need to connect first time using mobile data not your WiFi. .
  15. That's because they don't all report the same way. Some give current data, some give the 24hr average. You need to check the website and see what methodology they use.
  16. We're OK in Hat Yai, but my wife's aunt in Khuan Lang, west of Hat Yai is flooded to 1m in the house. My daughter near Rattaphum has parts of the farm under water but the house is fine; it's a traditional house on stilts. Thankfully the rain has now stopped but it was torrential over night.
  17. Both train services No.947 and 949 are running to the same timetable but as a bus service until the line reopens. https://www.railway.co.th/Home/index
  18. There's currently a replacement bus service Hat Yai to Padang Besar.
  19. Only because some numpty thought Stevie Wonder could make the leap from Scotland to the EPL. UTV
  20. As a child the first car I can remember was a green Triumph Herald, much like the one in the photo below. After that we had a Ford Cortina Mark 1, also green, my father's favourite colour.
  21. Who needs terrorists when you have morons like this!
  22. This article, unlike the other one saying 17 'ancient' temples to be restored, seems to suggest money for all.
  23. I've used DHL to and from the UK this year to send important documents. Can supply contact phone number and email, they will notify by SMS and email, phone before delivery. Reliable, no complaints.
  24. Hardly ancient, the Krue Sae mosque in Pattani is at least 300 years old though the site dates back 500 years as a place of worship.
