Purchase Cheap SIM from Lazada etc.
I have bought sims on Lazada from MELONTHAI without problem. But make sure you get one that suits your / his needs. A lot of the descriptions are in Thai, so if you don't read it, you will need to use Google Translate. Also, you might have to go along to the SIM provider's (AIS, DTAC etc) outlet with ID card to get the SIM activated.- 1

Hurricane Helene
It's the weather ... nothing has changed in decades or centuries. From Wiki ... ... "The strongest hurricane to hit the state during the period was the 1935 Labor Day hurricane, which is the strongest hurricane on record to strike the United States. Several other major hurricanes struck the state during the period, including the 1926 Miami hurricane, the 1928 Okeechobee hurricane, and several Category 4 hurricanes in the period 1945–50.' Florida is rarely spared of a damaging hurricane, every year. ... ... "In the period between 1900 and 1949, 108 tropical cyclones affected the state, which collectively resulted in about $4.5 billion (2017 dollars) in damage. Additionally, tropical cyclones in Florida were directly responsible for about 3,500 fatalities during the period, most of which were from the 1928 Okeechobee hurricane. The 1947 season was the year with the most tropical cyclones affecting the state, with a total of six systems. The 1905, 1908, 1913, 1927, 1931, 1942, and 1943 seasons were the only years during the period in which a storm did not affect the state." I drove through where Hurricane Andrew, Cat 5, (1992) hit, on the way to the Keys for some diving. Looked like someone took giant lawnmower across sections of the state. Nature is a bitch at times.

Where did everyone go... Floral Condo
I heard the pollution is very bad in Chiang Mai. Also Caucasians are not as vulnerable to Covid's developing issues as the Asians, give them a break mate. It's their choice. -

Billie Eilish and Finneas Endorse Kamala Harris for President
Native Americans in the old west movies would refer to that as speaking with a forked tongue. I support Trump, because the Dems have become the extremists. It's no longer the party of Kennedy, or even Bill Clinton. Hillary Clinton, for sure... -

Thai Wife Issues in the UK
The Ways of Ploy. So glad I ain't married to a Thai anymore. Sounds like the two weeks party in Thailand would be a great time to break up. Or if not then see how she reacts to you going to Thailand alone for a party. -

Be very careful buying from Lazada if you are not experienced. Look at the star ratings, comments and don't buy if shipped from overseas. You should get good feedback here from those who have had success.- 1

Your Two Months Rental Deposit
I rented a high-end condo on Sukhumvit, Bangkok for 7 months (on a monthly basis agreement) back in 1997. I informed the management 2 months in advance that I would be checking out on date x. Upon checkout, the management informed me that they were waiting for approval from the owner to return my 2-months deposit, and would send me a cheque. It never arrived. I rented a house in Hua Hin starting about 11 years ago; about 5 years ago the house sold. The new owner, a farang, from a small northern European country, who wanted to move into the house with his family, drew up a new lease permitting me to stay for a few months while I searched for new accommodation. No damage was done to the house, and I paid for house cleaning upon departure. The new farang owner claimed there was damage to the house facilities, which he could not identify (the house was in exactly the same condition when he inspected the house prior to purchase), so he only repaid half my 2-months deposit.
