PCX on Seatran ferry Nathon to Donsak?
Please can anyone advise what the score is on taking a PCX scooter on Seatran ferry Nathon - Donsak? Can I just turn up? Or need to book because it's high season? I looked on the website and it says "Large motorbike and rider." Nothing about scooters. TIA -

Football aristocracy trades boots for birdies in epic golf showdown
Picture of former Manchester United favourite Phil Jones courtesy of the www.icons-series.com Score big with exclusive 50% off Hospitality Tickets for Thaiger readers Thailand is rolling out the red carpet for the world of footballing aristocracy next month as they swap pitches for putts in a thrilling Ryder Cup-style golf competition. Twenty-four of the globe’s most highly decorated soccer legends will swap the highly-charged, almost gladiatorial, arenas of their playing days to trade goals, penalties and free-kicks for birdies, eagles and hole-in-ones in the Reignwood Icons of Football competition, on the challenging greens of Robinswood Golf Course. As an official sponsor, The Thaiger is offering readers an exclusive 50% discount on Hospitality tickets through our platform—don’t miss out on the chance to witness football royalty take on the greens up close. Under captain Lee Westwood, Team England is set to give a masterclass in sporting versatility as they square off against Team World, captained by Ryder Cup legend Sergio Garcia, in what promises to be a heady mix of sportsmanship and rivalry. Prepare for a “hole” lot of excitement when fan favourites such as Paul Scholes, John Terry, and Robbie Fowler join England’s charge, while Team World brings a continental flavour with Ruud Gullit, Gabriel Batistuta, and David Ginola under Garcia’s expert eye. Phil Jones, former England and Manchester United favourite, is the latest name to sign up for the golfing face-off slated for March 1 and 2. This marks the inaugural Asian appearance for the Icons Series, and Jones could hardly contain his excitement about the prestigious competition. “This event is absolutely unique. The opportunity to play top-drawer golf with both teammates and former adversaries is thrilling in itself, but doing it in Thailand, famed for its love of sports and fantastic fans, makes it all the more special. It’s like feeling that rush before a crucial derby.” Picture of Paul Ince (left) and Robbie Fowler courtesy of the www.icons-series.com Jones has already been honing his swing with ex-England keeper Joe Hart for a couple of practice rounds, ensuring they don’t find the hazards come the match days. “Joe and I are already planning a few rounds to get our form and team chemistry just right—nothing like bonding over a shared fairway.” Adding a bit of needle to the contest, Jones relishes the prospect of a swing-off against his old Manchester United mate, Nemanja Vidić, now on Team World. “Vidić was as tough as they come on the football pitch. It’ll be strange, yet exciting, taking him on at this golf malarkey. Intensity is his middle name, and I’m sure he’ll bring loads of it.” Having spent time in Thailand during his prime footballing days, Jones knows just what to expect from the passionate Thai locals. “Thai fans are second to none when it comes to enthusiasm. With so many past Manchester United stars in the mix, the crowd will be behind us, and that’s bound to create an electrifying atmosphere.” Over the two-day spectacle, golf fans, both aficionados and novices alike, will be treated to riveting match play formats including Alternate Shots, Fourballs, and Singles. Every crisp swing and nail-biting putt will be in full view, giving fans unparalleled access to the who’s who of footballing and golfing greatness. This novel event doesn’t just bring football legends to the links, it firmly positions Thailand as a top-choice destination for global sports tourism. With the competition being broadcast to over 80 countries and thousands of fans expected to grace the course, the Reignwood Icons of Football is set to deliver unforgettable strokes of genius.

Major Fire Breaks Out at Ratchaburi Candle Factory, Firefighters Struggled to Contain the Bl
Picture from responders. A massive fire has engulfed a candle casting factory in Ratchaburi, with firefighters still struggling to bring the blaze under control. Emergency crews were deployed to the site, working all night to prevent the flames from spreading further. The fire broke out at 20:05 on 12 February, in a storage building containing materials used in the candle-making process, located in Tha Rab Subdistrict, Mueang District, Ratchaburi Province. Local authorities immediately dispatched multiple fire engines from various agencies to the scene. Firefighters have used water and foam to suppress the flames, but due to the highly flammable nature of the stored wax, the fire spread rapidly. As the wax melts, it has created streams of burning liquid which further fuelled the blaze inside the warehouse. Officials restricted access to the area to prevent any civilian casualties. In response to the crisis, authorities set up a temporary emergency command centre to coordinate firefighting efforts. The district office, disaster prevention and mitigation teams, and the provincial administrative organisation were all actively involved in managing the situation. Mr. Kesha Saksomboon, a Member of Parliament for Ratchaburi, visited the site alongside emergency responders. He stated that this factory had suffered a major fire approximately 20 years ago and has now been hit by another devastating incident. The factory owner informed us that large quantities of candle-making materials had been stored inside the affected building, Mr. Kesha said. At this point, the exact cause of the fire is still unknown. To improve access for fire crews, authorities deployed excavators to break through the factory’s walls, allowing fire teams to reach the heart of the blaze. Additional foam trucks were brought in to aid in extinguishing the fire. The full extent of the destruction remains unclear, and investigations into the cause of the fire will commence once the situation is safe to enter all areas. -- 2025-02-13 -

No adults believe policies change the economy in 1 day. Why are there so many children talking about Trump?
