I just remember from one of my very rare (involuntary) visits at DMK (x years ago) that food/snack at landside was crowded and expensive. All I finally took was a lukewarm coke from a fridge for 50 Baht. I could not find a convenience store landside? (is there still something at the parking garage? Last checked before Suvarnabhumi opened). Funny enough: airside is considerably better. Some fast food and convenience stuff. My advice: get away as soon as possible. Tell your wife to bring a lunch packet

In the major population centers(?) DTAC coverage should be OK. And you get such DTAC SIMs at about every phone shop/booth. So no need to buy online like the one year packages. Cost about 200 to 300 Baht/month depending on speed (15 to 30 Mbit/s). 30 Mbit/s is more than good enough for HD videos and video calls. Make sure the SIM is being registered and activated for you. For DTAC it is possible to do online but a bit tedious.

I never order COD and will never pay a COD. Daughter still seems to do COD but is aware about the delivery and receives a call. Then takes care on her own. Funny enough: my goods often end up in a shop at the corner. I receive a "delivered" message and then pick it up sooner or later. I am bemused when a mate tells me he is waiting for his COD and getting angry when it does not come at the "usual time"

I had examples where Google spit nonsense in Thai and SayHi at least came close. Found one, it's from some article about electric vehicles. ชาร์จไฟบ้าน ไม่ง้อน่ามันแพง SayHi: Charging the house isn't expensive. Google: Charging at home. Don't reconcile. It's expensive. What is meant: charging at the house isn't expensive. With an "at the house.." SayHi would be fine. And Google is garbage, distorting. I should say that I always counter check with a paid Thai/German dictionary (splitting the words) with native speaker for all words.

Did you try the route on the Grab app? Hard to comment without knowing exact distance/route.

You think too much without knowing and should keep your language under control.

I knew something would be tried. Polls are not satisfying.

No question. Response times are completely random. Depend on office, current workload or work organization.

As from above post. Your assumptions are wrong. This is from my last approval. On the left the rank (Police Captain) of the (female) officer, on the right is Immigration Police Khon Kaen. (click on image for full size) Date of approval was Saturday March 4th at 10:12 AM.

Yes, you find the name and rank of the officer on the approval (Thai script). And no, they go to your office. I usually wait one or two working days for approval. Once approval was done on a Sunday Saturday, Seems to me some on duty officer had time to waste and went through 90 day reports.

Ok. Of course I won't try. With online working why should I try last minute. I always enter two weeks ahead. Four or five per year from the desk who cares.

Call yourself lucky if it is confirmed. See post above, it should be done no later than a week ahead.

Did I have hallucinations last time or did I see "60" signs painted on Sukhumvit?

This guy needs a serious update on his medical/nutrition knowledge. Maybe he also eats uncooked fermented fish ("stinky fish")? Next candidate for bile duct cancer. Thailand being a top spot for this otherwise rare disease.

You still write about "their kids" even after completely different story in Pattaynews? The only part that fits is that the rider was part of the crew. Jetski not legally registered, owner will be charged (maybe). And thanks for enlightning me about evening on the beach.

Some cut a primitive cover with a hole for the open window. Otherwise it is a joke.

6000 BTU, 542 W. Can cool your chicken coop

Exactly the case at Thepprasit rd at Kaan Theater. Had the pleasure to experience that. And that was in mid March. Endless digging on 2nd rd seems to go on? And even if all is finished (by theory): this place will always be plagued by traffic chaos and congestion. It's just too much for the road network. Build more monstrous towers and things will get worse.

So there is a power outage (no power) since two hours. Unlikely that all of "central Pattaya" is affected (and obviously isn't). Might be quite local, transformer burst.

Your post is a mystery to me. What "man" are you referring to? The deceased? Part of the "crew"? Where do you find that? "Kid hanging around"? Sorry can't get it.

Those from left hand driving countries are in advantage. Close parking on the left is still a bit of an effort for me. Thais hate reverse and don't know three point turn. I am always concerned as Thais don't know what's happening. They pass you from the left and the right with no care,

Welcome to the club. I did the motorcycle test in 2017 and what an outright joke that is. It's a traffic kindergarten,follow the signs, for once use indicators and the stop at the stop sign. A childish easy circling around traffic cones. Most difficult the 15 cm wide elevated concrete strip, some x meters long. Drive over without stopping/foot down. Some participants had to be reminded to wear a helmet

To the point and at the same time blaming opposition parties for their lush promises.

7 months have passed and the topic starter has not been on here since Oct 22. So be surprised if an answer comes. Situation is unchanged, it's a 777-300ER and 46D is an ordinary economy seat due to SeatGuru. https://www.seatguru.com/airlines/Thai_Airways/Thai_Airways_Boeing_777-300ER.php

No about? Driver license? For me it simply sounds like a ridiculous requirement. Not all mankind has a driving license.
