  1. Silly prices. Similar to some other drugstore products. Way more expensive than in the EU.
  2. I repeatedly ordered supplements from "PipingRock". A US company. Ordering and shipment from NJ always painless. Credit card required (no debit etc.). Usually it's not about multivitamins but this time I was tempted to add. ("Mega Multi Men 50+"), fairly cheap. Also ordered zinc pills (dirt cheap). Only after receiving I noticed that the "suggested serving" of two(2) vitamin pills results in these ridicolous overdosage (1000%+). Instead of 2 pills I now take half a pill and will probably not order again. Same with zinc, 50 mg! Thats way over suggested intake and zinc is not harmless when overdosed. Also half a pill now. More is better does not apply to vitamins. In best case it goes to the bowl. Worst case it clogs liver and kidneys.
  3. Do you have a Microsoft account and logged in to that?
  4. Not worth a separate thread: ThaiVietjet starts three flights weekly from CNX to SGN (Ho Chi Minh City/Saigon).
  5. Needs some optimism to fill a 737-800 even if not daily. They fly Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday. Promo price for Sunday Sep 11th sold out
  6. They need exercise/training in North Korea I have to bite my tongue not to comment how #1 treats his guards. Example set.
  7. Did some "medication" made him feel like he could fly? How many Putin critics afraid to be next?
  8. All exchange facilities within the premises of the airport (AOT controlled) are hefty rip offs and have exact same rates (booths/banks no matter) between 7 to 10 percent worse than in town. On the basement of Suvarnabhumi there is the connecting passage to the railway link. This area does not belong to AOT and there you find good rates at a couple of exchange booths (two or more, don't know what is left after COVID). Worth the walk depending on the amount to change. I would never change more at the airport than needed for the first few hours (transport to city etc.).
  9. Just look for the "No sex" sign at the entrance
  10. Just the other way round. 1625W would be about 7.4A. Do not try 220V/24A (~5300W) on such a cord except you have a fire extinguisher at hand.
  11. Yes and seems they start today. Flight from CNX should touchdown soon: Arrived 14:05
  12. All motorbikes (even a 110 cc) need the compulsory insurance. But coverage and price are a joke. I assume your thread would get more attention in the motor forum?
  13. At Nong Khai/Vientiane (July 17) I turned back about 2 hours later (finally studying silly prices at some fancy duty free shop ).
  14. Yes but seemingly within a Buddhist temple. I am not an expert but those religions mix quite liberally here.
  15. I am fighting hard to find an English language source. https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/พระพิฆเนศวัดบางชัน Google translation would be "Phra Phichit", Bang Chan Temple, Bangkok As is easy seen it's a Ganesha shrine. The temple is officially named "Wat Rat Satthatham (Bangchan)". See here: https://goo.gl/maps/pEQ3D198gzyAT79K9
  16. A popular misunderstanding. The 60 days include the day of arrival and the day of exit. That ends with 29th October. Applies to all immigration arithmetic (15, 30, 45, 60, 90 day visas/reports etc.). Lets make it easy with a "5 day visa": Aug 31, Sep 1, 2, 3, 4 Sep 5 would be the 6th day.
  17. Putin expressed his condolence to the family. Almost lowest possible level before swearing at the deceased.
  18. Pictures from August 2020 in Pattaya.
  19. If they really want they can clean up unused lines. Watched this myself in Pattaya. Piles of cut down fiber cables on the street and a huge pile at some shophouse (maybe a scrap business).
  20. Unlikely much copper. Mostly fiberglass cable enforced with steel wire(s) and plastic coating. Not sure how easy it is to make money from them. Good question. Too lazy, no responsible party, not paying off (it's mostly private companies)? In parts of cities there have been some cleanup campaigns over the years. And of course is by no way Phuket specific.
  21. Most of Isan in the 1200 to 1500 mm range. That's exceptional before peak rain season even started. And we experience it. Fortunately no flood problem in our area. Many parts of Germany are in the 500 mm range for the WHOLE year. (and drought this year)
  22. http://www.arcims.tmd.go.th/dailydata/yearRain.php One diagram showing deviation from long year normal: Total until 30 August:
  23. Thanks for the warning. Just confirms to stay with ThaiSmile for me. And don't be fooled by lower "starting at" prices by other LCC.
  24. So I am not alone with this observation. Obviously a big cleanup.
