  1. Seems BoT can't stop the Baht slide. One reason behind ? Even Euro increased.
  2. Still showing. Hope they will have a good explanation for that.
  3. 120000 Baht gold necklace? I don't walk with such cheapish stuff ????
  4. The video has sound and I am afraid he did nothing, neither honk (which he should have done!) nor break at first. I bet he realized that the bike would come over. And then? Being surprised that the bike slowed down? There is a U-turn! All U-turns are clearly announced with a sign. Complete sleepy and careless fool and not "good driving".
  5. Or another lost in translation after thinking about it ????
  6. About 11 sec into the video: About 14(!) sec into the video: If that is good driving, heaven help!!!
  7. Absolute sleeper. And there is no good driving but just an emergency breaking resulting in loss of control. Nothing but luck that the other motorcycle rider was not thrown off. From between 10 and 11 sec into the video it was clear that the motorcycle rider would not stick to the left lane but cross. About 3 sec(!) later the pickup nearly hit the motorcycle. Amazing silence: I know it's "forbidden" to honk but here it would have been absolutely necessary!!!
  8. "at night all cats are grey" I would not judge from such photos
  9. Quite a bit south on Jomtien beach rd. https://goo.gl/maps/SRVLRqcqhtZwRmc27 Do you know the T-section with Soi Bunkanchana (the traffic light)? 250 m further south. Have not frequented bars there. Only been there to see a member of the family clan working in the area selling coffee and things. Long given up, Covid killed the rest of the business. Very dependent on Russians. Lot of Cyrillic signs etc.
  10. As above. About 5 Baht now depending on consumption. 8 Baht is the usual way of hiding rental cost. Would not be surprised if they start to charge even more after the recent rise of government rate.
  11. Do you refer to filenames or date/time from the EXIF data in the files? I always do automatic renaming after copying pictures based on EXIF data. Of course if the time/date setting in the camera/phone was wrong this won't help (maybe in your case)
  12. Why should immigration not know their own rule? Just make sure that it is 45 days incl day of arrival and departure. And as ubonjoe writes: be more concerned about unknowing airline. Reference for airlines is IATA Timatic database. This site seems to allow query for passengers: https://skyteam.traveldoc.aero/ I just did an example: London - Bangkok, UK passport, no visa Depart Oct 7th, arrive Oct 8th Depart Nov 20th (21st would be the maximum if arrival date is considered). "You are clear to board this flight". (click on picture for full size)
  13. Just seen on TV news. Terrible. Firing tear gas in a football stadium! Latest number of victims 129.
  14. Ordinary tourist >visa< allowed 60 days.
  15. Pictures taken July 3rd 2022, at 18:34 and 18:38. 0.05 to 0.06 difference. That's 60 Baht for 1000 Dollars.
  16. Well, if you call 0.03 to 0.05 per USD/EUR/GBP "way better" then yes. I would call it a tidbit better. Worth the walk if it's about significant amounts. Otherwise a small bottle of water for the walk will eat up the difference. But indeed on last visit no exchange beat Damini in Soi Post (13/2). I read that they are open 24/7. Didn't notice that.
  17. To my knowledge there is no 60 days permission for any national arriving visa exempt.
  18. Even 90 days although "oblomov" does not sound Latin American or South Korean
  19. I know. Just wanted to point out that father/family must be financially sound. She doesn't speak Thai. Sounds like there are no plans to stay indefinitely.
  20. Which in a way sounds more plausible and alarming! How many would be affected by 28k USD and the like? They seem to have serious deficits with their web editing. The anonymous website showed the 28k foreign currency warning this morning. NOW CORRECTED Quick and dirty, English only where it was German before.
  21. Tried hard but no clue. Quite proper with nice pool, modern windows on the balcony. "Beijing" time clock and "Golden" classy kitsch at the reception. Some love it. Girl at international school. Not a low cost long stay to my opinion.
  22. You haven't heard German health minister. Mr. Panic himself.
  23. Same limit for: GBP. USD, EUR. CHF... Maybe more?
  24. Strange similarity to the other thread about 28000 GBP.
  25. Correct and obvious after reading equivalent text in German. Just enough for my monthly expenses ,,????
