When I was a young RAF airman I was stationed at Butterworh airbase in Malaya. One of our number owned a macaque which was anchored by a waist belt to a cable stretched between two palms. The beast frequently broke free and attacked and bit airmen. Reluctantly, the owner accepted the monkey had to go. He made a small cage and secured the monkey on the pillion of his motorcycle, left the base and drove north about 20 klicks and released the animal into the roadside forest where in scampered away into the trees. Returning to base he dismounted to find the monkey sitting on the pillion, snarling and raising its eyebrows. Then it bit him.🤣

Why don't you use cardless withdrawals? I haven't carried or used a physical ATM card for a couple of years. -

Trump wins last-minute reprieve as judge cuts fraud bond to $175m

I was talking about the fine, not the bond. -
No. You don't file a tax return that includes non assessable income. This might be income excluded via a DTA, like US govt pensions. Or income excluded by a Royal Decree, like that under a LTR visa. Thai tax returns have no lines on which to put income not subject to taxation. And, as Mike said: "And currently there is no facility to declare exempt income." And, if you figure the cost/reward for ever requesting such information -- doubtful it will ever occur.

It's a niche thing probaly left to high rolling Asians flashing the dosh around and drinking whisky until they are nearly senseless. Angry farangs in these situations are usually because it is dawning on them, they are the mark and they don't have enough money !

Describe cheap ? Although, just buy a decent (Xiaomi fan myself, have 2), save the box, and take it back with you, in not staying in TH. You must like CM to return there. Or instead of taking with you, leave with trusted friend, and it will be here for your return.

My haematologist (female ) said she was taking fenugreek to improve lactation while she was breast-feeding twins. Obviously, it's not entirely rejected by the medical profession. The real problem with many of these compounds is no double blind, randomized studies of statistically significant control groups and subject groups, in well-defined age brackets and health conditions. Hence a lot of anecdotal evidence, just as my first post is.

Judge recommends ex-Trump election lawyer John Eastman be disbarred
JonnyF replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Not content with going after Trump, the Dem judges are now going after his associates. Desperate stuff. Reminds me of Thai politics in many ways, although Thai politics appears to be cleaner. -
Gays for Trump are like cows for hamburgers
tubby johnson replied to Jingthing's topic in Gay People in Thailand
Mike Pence was the real anti-gay bible basher. He's fallen out with Trump, though. Trump couldn't care less about gays and their constant drama. He'll have bigger issues to deal with as president. I do hope Trump goes after the pedophiles and creeps pushing pornography and degeneracy onto school kids. -
Pickpockets theft of Norwegian-Thai couple was karma, say cops
NE1 replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Couldn't people just report thefts , assaults etc. to him , save wasting time with the Keystone cops. -
That was probably a brick? My cousin had one and it was quite large. I don't remember the first time I saw a cell phone in Bkk, but it was in the back pocket of a gogo dancer. They were probably the only non rich Thais that could afford one, and would have used it for getting customers outside the bar. That has to be near or after the turn of the century.

I've got a few on here as well. Normally over on World News but they do follow me elsewhere on occasion. I think they have a crush on me.

There are some very good roads on KPN - with very interesting bends. He could 'open the throttle' on a few stretches of concrete. That's why people die in mb accidents there. -
