  1. With the predicted wind speeds for Thailand I am not too concerned. Wind is what I fear. Flooding is not existent in our area. Just mud and puddles ???? Feel sorry for the farmers.
  2. Nice tracking map: https://zoom.earth/#view=16.29,104.09,6.26z/map=live (click on the dots) We are exactly in the path. Fortunately wind should calm down much. But more heavy rain expected from Thursday. Not much left to swamp and drown the harvest. Might become another bad year for the farmers. Today saw people with fishing rods at the rice fields.
  3. https://aseannow.com/topic/1272943-parts-of-khon-kaen-impassable-26-sep-22/
  4. Just started a test to transfer 2000 Euro from my Wise account and this is shown as garantueed. On their anonymous website without login the show the blanket warning.
  5. Just seen. Rough times.
  6. For reference purposes I always use current market rates (xe.com). Of course Thai Bank TT rates or even cash rates worse and lagging behind.
  7. If there is no urgent need avoid travel to Khon Kaen (city). Highway 12 and other parts highly flooded. ThaiSmile Air gave a serious warning about travel to the airport.
  8. It shortly dipped below 40 this morning, now at 40.4.
  9. And not from Euro town. Enjoy Dollar strenght.
  10. 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.
  11. Seems a day later they did a U-turn? Pay the price to get off the headlines? https://www.facebook.com/KhaosodEnglish/posts/pfbid0jCRGDo3mPeMvXecHL7xKh5agYwa1U11vcXu613kV8r5zcZXtGnDxj86rHXmxbCFKl
  12. 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.
  13. No aircon? Fan only? Prices will be without electricity cost. Check what they want per unit, sometimes a hidden rip off.
  14. Just noticed that it was good for a news thread
  15. 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.
  16. Good you didn't ask for the full size My first SIM was the size of a credit card.
  17. 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
  18. Absolutely. Part of training for alarm rides in other countries. Through red lights with extreme care. Similar for violating other traffic rules.
  19. 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
  20. 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
  21. Beware of tomboys even without crowbars. I fear them more than heavyweight kathoeys. Don't tell this person on the hood is a female
  22. 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.
