Do you know Ben Bartree?
You've mentioned before that you don't like Noam C. Why? His politics I presume? I like a lot of his writing. He's very good at outing Corporate America and its abuse of the working classes. I guess you wouldn't like Bernie Saunders either.... are you a Republican? -

Saved a Thai from being fined. Good or bad?
If people are warned all the time they will never learn! A fine might even avoid an accident later on! -

What time do you get up at?
My issue since retirement is that I need to wake up naturally to avoid fatigue during the day. That time can be anywhere between 7am and 8;30am , but I never settle down to sleep until 11pm. If I set an alarm, it doesn't work for me anymore. I stay tired all day. All very odd. -

Thailand's Maya Bay to Reopen for Tourists on Tuesday
Thailand's famous Maya Bay, located in the southern province of Krabi, will reopen to visitors on Tuesday after a two-month closure for environmental rehabilitation. The iconic bay, renowned globally from the Hollywood film "The Beach" starring Leonardo DiCaprio, had been closed from August 1 to September 30 to allow natural restoration. Attapon Charoenchansa, director-general of the Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation, confirmed that Maya Bay, along with nearby Loh Samah Bay and Lor Kor Bay on the Phi Phi islands, will welcome tourists again. During the closure, Hat Noppharat Thara-Mu Ko Phi Phi National Park staff undertook essential maintenance tasks, such as securing buoys to protect coral reefs and ensuring visitor safety for the forthcoming high tourist season. The shutdown was part of ongoing efforts to manage and preserve the bay's delicate ecosystem. The temporary closure allowed marine life and coral reefs to recuperate from the wear and tear caused by extensive tourism. This strategy has been employed since 2018, following severe environmental degradation from the bay's popularity post-filming of "The Beach" over two decades ago, reported Bangkok Post. Maya Bay’s clear waters, limestone cliffs, and stunning marine life have made it a prime destination, attracting countless tourists eager to experience its natural allure. Authorities hope that the rehabilitative measures will sustain the bay’s ecological balance while continuing to offer visitors an unforgettable experience. Tourists planning a visit should be mindful of the new protective measures in place to support ongoing conservation efforts. This reopening marks a significant step in balancing ecological preservation with tourism, ensuring that Maya Bay remains a pristine paradise for future generations. As the high season approaches, officials anticipate a surge in visitors drawn to the bay’s world-renowned beauty, underscoring the importance of continued vigilance in environmental management.

Notice to our members - Behaviour.
Since the takeover six months ago, the forum has undergone significant changes. While it’s not the forum it once was—and that's a good thing—changes in management, improvements in technical resources and a new team of moderators have made it better. Yet, many of you complain about the lack of topics while contributing very little yourself. You expect to be spoon-fed, taking everything the forum offers while giving only negative toxic comments in return. Trolls exist in any online community. Until they are identified, we give them the benefit of the doubt, just like anyone else. Once identified, they are removed. We can’t monitor every post around the clock, so we rely on you to report any issues. Be part of the solution, not the problem. The derogatory comments aimed at our news, sponsors and advertorials are unjustified and disrespectful. Even worse are the inflammatory remarks on articles related to charitable foundations. If you have nothing positive to say, move on. There are plenty of other topics and forums for you to vent on. This forum is free for you to use. Many of you have enjoyed it for years and repaid us with accusations and attacks. We're drawing the line here. We are committed to a respectful and supportive environment. Constructive feedback and healthy discussions are welcome, but persistent negativity and toxic behaviour will not be tolerated. If you’re so dissatisfied, perhaps it’s time to find another platform. The internet is a big place. The forum is evolving in a very positive way and we won’t let a few bad apples, or sour old men, spoil the hard work that goes into it. Admin.- 1

Laminate/Vinyl flooring over wood floor
builders done same to one of the wooden houses we got but they used the thick fibre cement floor boards, which may possibly be an easier and maybe cheaper option for you whatever you use, do consider sanding that floor and refinishing it, rather than covering it with vinyl flooring -

Make sure you bring a copy of the compulsory insurance receipt/schedule with you, or they'll probably require you to pay for it again. -

Is street food good for you? Old rancid oil. Cheap oil. Food dripping with oil.
LOL! I consider Thai food NOT healthy at all. They poor in sugar and MSG plus the oil used is not always fresh and might be of a kind, so-called vegetable oils, that you should NEVER put in your mouth! I will however mention that I do sometime buy BBQ chickens and similar and have never ever been sick or had any problem with it. Most street food is as good as the one you make yourself. Street vendors do put their pride in making good and safe food. I just do not agree with things they add! Without it the food might even be considered healthy! 🙄😏 -
