Report Thailand's Beloved Bidet Spray: A Hygienic Tradition with Global Appeal
In canada they don't have any and I miss mine. Have opted for the baby wipes. If anyone else ever noticed, sometimes I come across people with really bad BO and they smell like poop... maybe they should have used a bum gun. No one is really clean down there without one. -

Tourism Thailand's Tourism Industry Faces Pivotal Moment as Arrivals Decline
Too bad, Chinese tourists don't take the bait, and prefer Japan instead... 😆 "Chinese tourists are returning to Japan in increasing numbers, particularly after the lifting of group tour bans by the Chinese government in 2023. A significant surge in Chinese visitors was observed in early 2025, with data indicating a near doubling of Chinese travelers to Japan compared to the same period in 2024. This increase is attributed to various factors, including the easing of travel restrictions and the popularity of Japan as a destination for Chinese travelers. Here's a more detailed look: Increased Arrivals: The number of inbound travelers from China to Japan reached 6.98 million in 2024, a significant increase from the 2.42 million in 2023." -

Technology and food
The day I have to use a phone to read a restaurant's menu is the day they permanently lose a customer. Then of course they want you to pay the bill by scanning a QR code too no doubt? Then they tell you their internet is down. You try mobile data but that fails to work and you can't connect to your bank. The next day: Foreigner Beat Severely By Restaurant Employees After Failing To Pay Bill "Farang deadbeat is in police custody. Hospital refused to treat him because he can't attach to his bank's payment portal. Claims he 'was unable to connect his phone to his bank's payment system to pay the restaurant bill' but promised to pay once he could get to an ATM. Sensing the foreigner would fail to pay, the staff beat the farang with a metal rod after his debit card failed to work as the ATM service was down. Restaurant owner states they 'don't take cash' anyway. The restaurant staff refuse to comment further on this case other to say, their 'Internet is down.' News Details At 6!" Every time I read about tourist being beaten half to death for "not paying their bill" I immediately wonder if the bar/restaurant they went to only takes cashless and the farang can't get his phone to attached to their bank to pay the bill, and then it escalates from there with accusations that the farang is a cheat, a thief, and tried to skip out on the bill when the actual story may be that the establishment requires you to pay electronically but the connectivity to the Internet and to bank portals is down. No thank you. I'll go to a restaurant with a menu and also takes cash. Then there can be no misunderstandings. Then let's not even talk about freaking robots! Gawd! -

Sexy span on Hotmail
Tosh. I got my Hotmail email address before HoTMaiL was acquired by Microsoft, so that must have been in 1996/97. My email address matches my real name - no extra digits on the end. It signifies I was a very early adopter of web-based Email, and definitely tech-savvy. These days, however, I access it using a dedicated email client to manage my dozen or so accounts. -
