Surprised no reaction from BYD owners on this forum
Benz diesel cars are really good and If I were to buy another Diesel or recommend to anyone, the C220d is great. Never a gasoline or hybrid, those are full of complexities and problems. the c220d can do 20/24km/l easily on the city/highway, and it's a great car. https://www.headlightmag.com/2022-12-26-acceleration-fuel-consumption-mercedes-benz-c220d-amg-dynamic_w206_edit1/ -

Former Aussie cop’s epic run across Thailand for tsunami victims
A former forensic cop from Australia is gearing up for his biggest physical challenge yet—a gruelling 1,400-kilometre run across Thailand in December. Dubbed “Run to Remember,” this endurance test marks the 20th anniversary of the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami, which claimed 230,000 lives worldwide, including 5,400 in Thailand. Starting on December 1, charity Hands Across the Water founder Peter Baines will run from Yasothon to Khao Lak, the site devastated by the disaster, arriving on December 26, exactly 20 years after the tragedy. His goal is to raise a whopping 25 million baht for the charity which helps Thai children impacted by the tsunami. The funds will support education centres, including one focused on training students for Thailand’s tourism sector. Baines recalls his time identifying victims after the tsunami. “When I arrived, the scene was unimaginable.” His experience in the aftermath fuelled his mission to help the children left behind. Since founding the charity in 2005, it has expanded to care for over 350 children across seven projects. The run will push Baines to his limits, with 33 marathon distances to cover in the scorching Thai heat. “The heat and humidity will make this especially tough.” If a 1,400-kilometre run sounds too intense, supporters can join the Run to Remember 2024 in Bangkok’s Chatuchak Park on December 15, with proceeds going to Hands Across the Water, reported Hua Hin Today.

3 Things that will make your relationship successful in Thailand
After hacking my way through the first page--I got no further--I was reminded of the William Goldman quote, regarding Hollywood, but quite apt here, as well: “Nobody knows anything...... Not one person in the entire motion picture field knows for a certainty what's going to work. Every time out it's a guess and, if you're lucky, an educated one.” -

Insurance for lady - not approved
So the life insurance for my thai lady was not approved because of BMI out of target. She is 158cm 43kg... meaning underweight. So my understanding was wrong about this being a correct proportion. Instead seems it could be compliant if 158x 60kg...which to me seems chubby, not saying fat! -

Solar panels to charge EV directly?
There's no "may" about it!! But you can choose to believe the Snake-Oil if you wish. They also show PWM charge controllers which are hideously inefficient. To be honest, that kit would be nearer to 100W than 1,000W, sorry. -

Russia's Subversive Campaign on British Streets: MI5's Warning
Is Poo-tin plotting any terror attacks in Europe? Quite a silly thing to do. It will only cause adverse effect; their anti-Russia sentiment will only get stronger instead of weaker. Can lead to more aid to Ukraine.- 1

I used to smoke there all the time, my hotel even provided a sala by the pool to smoke weed. There were bags of weed on every tourists table. I was told do it on private grounds and you won't have a problem. -

Trump chickens out again.
And you think maybe watching the whole podcast might in any way make Trump claiming he's a truthful person and the interviewer cracking up any less funny? Now that's what I call clutching at straws. -
