Don't give Thai banks a gift with nothing given in return.
If you have a savings account at a Thai bank, you can ask for an ATM card. No fees if you use in the local area. -

BREAKING - WSJ: Trump’s Name All Over The Epstein Files
Why start at 2005 and not at their first recorded meeting in the 1980's? Though it is not known when Epstein and Trump first met, Trump told New York magazine in 2002 that he had known Epstein for 15 years, which would date back to the late 1980s. “Terrific guy,” Trump said in the 2002 interview.

Patong - The Wake
Not having ventured out much at all, especially in the evenings, I accepted an invitation from a visiting Aussie friend here, when he suggested meeting at a Chinese restaurant in Jungceylon for dinner one night, and as I haven't had a Chinese meal in decades, I accepted. It was a clean and tidy medium-sized restaurant in Jungceylon (what I call the second half of Jungceylon) and I let him do the ordering as I had no idea about the offerings on the menu, but what I did see was that there were no vegetable dishes included in any of the dishes and I just followed his lead. He had bought along a bottle of "sparkling Shiraz" something I have never tried and never wanted to, but I thought I'd go along and give it a go and I can safely say that I won't be trying any more of it? Well the food was delivered quite speedily and was completely and utterly tasteless and not one of the three dishes he ordered for us really tickled my tastebuds at all. If I were to describe them, they were bland, tasteless, and expensive for what they were, so I will never go to that place again and I now see why I have become a fan of Thai food (on occasion) because of the plethora of taste sensations in their dishes. Having said that, my Aussie friend said he would rate the food at 4/10, whilst I would have given it 2/10, and he enjoyed the sparkling Shiraz, and I would also give that a 2/10. Before we parted company we had a couple of drinks in the Irish Times pub which was completely empty when we got there and only had three other customers when we left, so it would appear that that place is struggling as I have noted that a few times before. The Churrassco restaurant was doing good business and has a good reputation, however there is going to be some competition for it because approximately 80 m away, another restaurant is opening up and it is a "South American restaurant" (El Gaucho?) and it would appear to have a similar menu to Churrassco. Time will tell. I will get back down to Blue Beach Café and Restaurant (one of my favourite restaurants in Patong) when a friend of mine comes back from a trip to Malaysia, as I haven't been for a while, mainly because I am somewhat restricted as to how far I can walk and a couple of folks whom I meet at Blue Beach always want to have a few drinks in Bangla and want me to tag along, and I can find this a little onerous. -
