  1. They won't be able to blame this one on Thaksin, or his sister then.. Bangkok has been known as the "Venice of the East" for how long now.?
  2. Having done a fair amount of work here with EGAT over many years, the answer is a resounding 'yes'. ????
  3. Personally not a fan of ink or needles. I don't mind what other people do to their bodies though. Girls with the discreet tatts are quite a turn-on, but I dislike the heavily-tattooed look. Live and let live.
  4. Key word here is "may". Sounds a bit like an empty election promise, imo.
  5. It's more like a spontaneous reaction to a heart-warming story. Happens occasionally.. I wonder why people are so full of themselves they have to denigrate anyone with empathy for others.? I know sometimes it's not possible to be too cynical in LOS, but go have a nice nap and have another go, eh?
  6. A large amount of the population here were just subsisting before Covid, massive inflation, joblessness, and rising energy costs. Bear in mind there is virtually no welfare safety net, or unemployment benefits here in Thailand. I don't think 50k/month is representative of Thailand's household income. I doubt the "UTCC" even bothered itself to survey outside Bangkok.
  7. Similar weather here in Rayong, last night. Rivers bursting their banks just on my way to work this morning.. ????
  8. Local favourite dish here in Rayong. ???? Just make sure the mussels are fresh.
  9. Same guy. Professor Neil Fergusson at Imperial College, London. Failed computer modeller extraordinaire. Always gets his modeled predictions totally wrong, and indeed is the 'go-to' guy for wrong predictions... Funded by the usual suspects (Bill & Melinda, WHO, etc). https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/six-questions-that-neil-ferguson-should-be-asked
  10. Not sure, but the pair I bought are lighter than their (waterproof) walking shoes anyway. https://www.decathlon.co.th/en/p/8513387/trail-running-shoes/xt7-trail-running-shoes-for-men-blue-and-bronze
  11. Yep, have ordered a few different walking shoes from Decathlon. The comfort and durability is great for the price tag. The "Trail Running" style shoes are worth a look also.
  12. Yep, wild overreactions all sides on this story. Your haircut could have got you a beating back in late 70's Britain as I recall during my punk rock years. But nothing like this, obviously.
  13. When comedy legends like Jerry Sadowitz start getting canceled in their own country you know something is wrong. Hopefully, this silly and self-defeating BS censorship will go full circle and fade away to a distant memory.
  14. Maybe getting "pilloried" for real might help these people augment a few manners or consideration for other road-users and pedestrians?
  15. Maybe everyone is overlooking the fact that Germans are noted for having a legendary sense of humour, and he's just utilizing his devastating wit and repartee.?
  16. The State threatening to confiscate private land.? Has Thailand gone full Communist or something?
  17. My neighbour and friend passed away recently. He had been suffering from diabetes and heart problems for a while and was virtually bed-ridden for the last year of his life. He was 74yo, and when he finally passed on, his body was taken away from his house, and was declared to have died from "Covid", even though he had not left the house, or any of his immediate family being tested positive for C-19.. (At his funeral, a bunch of goons with full Hazmat suits and visors delivered his body to the temple and no one was allowed to go near the casket).
