And so the exodus of quality expats begins. This time it's personal
I agree. The change in the last 15 years is already astonishing. By 2040 the city will no longer be attractive to retirees. The same applies to Phuket. There will be no "idyllic bubbles" left. Property developers will.make sure of that. -

Keir Starmer’s EU Reset: A Strategy Built on Falsehoods
"Ruin the country" covers just about anything. You really think the country's ruined? If so, don't you think the Cameron/Johnson/Sunak administrations might have had something to do with it? After all, Rome didn't fall in a day. Import criminals? What happened to the Tory promise to take back control of our borders after Brexit? They couldn't even force through the Rwandan scheme to EXport criminals, as you call them. Give away territory? Oh, you mean Diego Garcia? We had no claim on it. The local inhabitants were displaced and banned from returning because of the US base there. Even reporters couldn't get in until the BBC were allowed a brief visit. London lost preeminence as a financial centre. So what, you say? A small price to pay for securing our borders, right? 555. What a load of you know what. And I don't copy and paste from X. I'm not even on it. Never have been. Never will be. I'm not a fan of Musk nor AI. So any more baseless allegations? Or even claims? -

Re entry permit
Nothing if you choose to get it at the airport. Go to the re-entry permit desk (after security but before immigration at Suvaranabhumi). Pay 200 baht, write down your address and tell them the date you want to come back. They fill out the form, they take your pictures, and if it is not crowded (never has been when I've done it) then ten minutes later you have your re-entry permit and then you proceed to the immigration line as usual. You can save the 200 baht if you print out the form (TM8) and fill it out before you go, along with getting photos done somewhere and taking them with you. But for me it is 200 baht very well spent. Whether you pay the 200 baht or not the fee is 1,000 for single entry, 3,800 baht for multi entry. You can also do this at your local immigration office but it is so easy and quick to do it at the airport I can't imagine why you'd bother. -

No wonder people like to shop at Lazada.
Lazada is the only one with mostly English options. But I often use it on Google Chrome to get a full translation. Only the comments now have translation which is really good. Then the app could see a lot of improvements. I just wish Lazada would get rid of all the fakes and low quality things. I know... I've already ranted about this so much, but... Try to search for brands, like "makita" the first 10 pages are all fake. same for shoes, clothe, computer, phones, etc. If you don't have knowledge and know to spot fake vs real, It is incredibly easy to buy a fake, tell you haven't gotten a fake in Lazada once? I've got, and I have always been super geeky. except with shoes... I got a fake nike, returned was easy, Lazada accepted my return as counterfeit. Shop continues to sell. -

Sunday roast dinners
Yeah, agree. The pubs are generally fine but this was another level up in quality, especially of the meat and gravy. But yes, you do have to pay for it. Even though 750 was not cheap I think it was worth the premium. Unlikely I'll be back any time soon as it is across town from where I live, but if I was in that area I would definitely drop in. FWIW we also ate beef tartare, pan fried scallops, six NZ oysters, a pizza, pan fried salmon, a wild prawn risotto and a couple of desserts (pavlova and sticky date pudding). All superb. And the service was good too - they gave us one of our desserts for free when they heard it was my daughter's birthday. -

Is Thailand Value for money
Well, that's the thing about them Walking St. pizzas. You got to bring your own cheese. Then what you do is request NO CRUST as you hand over your cheese for them to mix in a bowl with the other ingredients. Presto! Yer healthy Walking St. pizza. -

Save The Children Urges Action on Child Road Deaths in Thailand
Is that a fact! Gosh, I was sure they were doing a pressure test. Maybe the wife mistranslated when the station worker explained. Oh, well. In that case, absolutely no blame can go on the inspectors if they just have to spray some soapy water on the couplings. Looks good! -

Is Thailand Value for money
Perhaps you missed @fredwiggy clownish pronouncements of me not knowing anything about nutrition, with him being the preeminent reference for all things nutritional. He neglected to ask and instead assumed he knew best. Just like his foolish claims that NY pizza, shrimp scampi and cheese burgers are healthy foodstuffs. Equally ridiculous, was your agreeing with him. 😊 I trained for both. -

Is Thailand Value for money
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_number_of_millionaires Most of the wealth of these millionaires is tied to their home, illiquid asset, so the majority of these millionaires need to stay where they are, and pay "millionaires" prices for everything. For example if 5% of these millionaires try to sell their house and move somewhere else, they may find that they are not millionaires anymore, as the house prices will plummet, as there are not enough millionaires to buy them. -
