  1. And not from Euro town. Enjoy Dollar strenght.
  2. And why the hell would someone feel the need to stop a fight with a local moto taxi rider??? If the taxi man got in serious trouble a pack of pals would spring to help and beat the drunkard AND him unconscious.
  3. Seems a day later they did a U-turn? Pay the price to get off the headlines? https://www.facebook.com/KhaosodEnglish/posts/pfbid0jCRGDo3mPeMvXecHL7xKh5agYwa1U11vcXu613kV8r5zcZXtGnDxj86rHXmxbCFKl
  4. Sorry for the laughter, but 15000 will of course get you much more than your modest requirements. From the OP and mentioning Soi Buakhao it sounded like <5000.
  5. No aircon? Fan only? Prices will be without electricity cost. Check what they want per unit, sometimes a hidden rip off.
  6. Just noticed that it was good for a news thread
  7. Looks like the GBP has done another dive. 40.7 at currency market. "Lowest rate since 37 years" is one headline. Makes the Euro loss feel moderate.
  8. Good you didn't ask for the full size My first SIM was the size of a credit card.
  9. Part of the problem. They always drive with emergency lights on no matter how urgent the transport is. That leads to ignorance and blunting by other drivers. Once I followed an ambulance with emergency lights on over 20 km on the outer lane with 80 km/h (90 allowed). Very relaxing
  10. Absolutely. Part of training for alarm rides in other countries. Through red lights with extreme care. Similar for violating other traffic rules.
  11. I am not sure what it is. Best picture here (should be easy for experts), but I am lazy to go through all catalogs: https://www.amarintv.com/news/detail/149137
  12. They pixelate heavily. So crazy: https://www.matichon.co.th/social/news_3577233 But from one of the pictures I have an idea. Ok, won't name it. It's another one
  13. Beware of tomboys even without crowbars. I fear them more than heavyweight kathoeys. Don't tell this person on the hood is a female
  14. Me too. And for driving under alarm there is a special training in other countries and requires a specific license. Not every firefighter is allowed to drive under alarm.
  15. I think they learned the lesson from 1997 and won't try to stem against the Dollar rise.
  16. If the Baht would have been strong and followed the Dollar, the Pound would now be at about 37. So be happy that the Baht is weak. (comment from a Euro pensioner)
  17. The thread title has a little flaw. Should read: Why is the Pound so weak ???? Like it or hate it but the USD is still the reference.
  18. Read the article. They were on alarm. "According to local witnesses, the patrol car was driving with the siren blaring at high speed in the heavy downpour" It is not easy to keep discipline and limit speed in such high adrenaline state
  19. Let's assume that there was an urgent necessity to drive under these conditions with two children on the pillion. If so: drive with extreme(!) care. You can hardly be seen (even assuming the bike had working lights).
  20. Both fast and easy (3BB fiber). What's the effect at your site? Timeout? Endless hourglass? Error message?
  21. Before the 60s I bet the fishermen didn't care at all. No problem, no solution. No concrete mountains, no paved roads, no one stupid to build housing in the lowest lying terrain. If it rained it rained. People living in houses on stilts waiting for the water to run off.
  22. Yep. A common misconception that mosquito transmitted stuff is limited to "the jungle". There is a reason why Singapore has very rogue checks on mosquitoe breeding spots, open water etc. The problem with the densely populated areas is transfer of infected blood from one person to another by the mosquitoes. So making it kind of "contagious" disease.
  23. Is the schedule for kicking out, forbidding any relevant opposition also prepared? Bet they will witness a pencil given as a campaign present. And off you are. 10 year blocked from politics.
  24. Never spent a single thought on that. Not even aware about this country switch on PlayStore. Have four Thai banking apps, one German banking app and WISE. All work flawless. Can't comment whether there are UK specific problems.
