  1. No it's not. Silver is associated with lead, zinc and gold. Whilst most certainly it's a by-product in gold mining, it's more often the case the primary economic metal in silver-lead-zinc deposits. Yes it is associated with copper, but it's not the most common occurrence.
  2. Because it's a forum, and I can't fathom why someone would want to eat baked beans!
  3. Fried rice! not exotic enough, all these top 20 things are garbage and purely click bait
  4. Silver isn't particularly rare, there's a lot of silver still in the ground.
  5. With tempeh is better, has the texture that tofu lacks
  6. No Sambal Goreng is correct, as is Nasi Goreng but they're not the same thing. Sambal Goreng is usually made with tofu, green beans and chillies all fried in a sambal chilli sauce.
  7. Yes you can transfer using Wise and Turkish lira. Note you don't link to your bank, once you set up an account with Wise you can organise a transfer and make a bank transfer to their local Wise account, once they have your money their Thai partner bank will deposit the Thai equivalent you accepted. I have no idea how quickly transactions are completed from Turkey.
  8. I wouldn't dispute that, indeed I haven't, I'm just one of those annoyingly organised people who like to prepare everything in advance, and everything is in duplicate in the provinces.
  9. Did I say it was an issue? I just prefer to download and complete ahead of attending the appointment, it saves time.
  10. Yes. I submitted the paperwork for my 1 year marriage extension yesterday (Songkhla Immigration - Hat Yai). I have digital copies of the forms that I update each year, this year 3 documents were returned and 2 replacement forms given to me and my wife for completion. The 2 forms the wife previously completed 'wife document 3' and the 'certificate from host' are replaced with a single document the OP's 'STM.10 Affidavit of Family Relationship to Thai National' . Additionally, previously 'document 5 - consent to disclosure of information' is now 'STM.11Consent form for Fact Checking' Songkhla Immigration forms are available here, their LINE account GDrive link, their website is out of date. https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1-1MyRNP_GH6UK_ZmQPkrXBvIeDKPehJ4
  11. No such thing as a free lunch
  12. Renewal today took 2hrs 30min, busy today and they look a little understaffed, all very pleasant, no problems just rather slow.
  13. Protection from what? It's Thailand not America.
  14. Hanging's too good for him, throw him under the train - twice
  15. In person, just before I took the family to the UK, about 6 weeks ago, but I chat with 'farang' friends in Thailand daily via Line or Whatsapp. These are people I've known for years and have met, I don't include 'virtual friends' on forums. It's unusual to see westerners here in Hat Yai, and certainly not to talk to, so it's only when I go up to Bangkok, which is about every six weeks, heading off to work.
  16. WTF - your keyboard set-up doesn't change when you go to a different country, if you have a Thai keyboard, as I do on my laptop, if I'm in the UK it's still a Thai keyboard! Just enter the password as you did in Thailand, nothing has changed unless you've damaged your keyboard during travel. If your keyboard is damaged and shift+3 no longer gives you a hash, use the magnifying glass and search for Character Map and open, select the hash sign and copy.
  17. I've lost a credit card one, and I've had fraudulent use of a card once. In the instance of fraud the standard bank transaction notification SMS alerted me and I was able to cancel the card, the money was refunded. There was no cost to replace the cards as HSBC Singapore always use DHL to courier replacement cards to my address in Thailand.
  18. I'm sure he's had it upgraded
  19. So the Batcomputer connects to what to gather all its intelligence?
  20. Batman does!
  21. It has little to do with 'empire', you would think if the Dutch, with a GDP a third the size of the UK, can resist selling up and moving into a condo the UK might show a little more mettle.
