Foreign woman criticised for urinating on Bangla Road, Phuket
sambum replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
I used to enjoy putting my name in the snow until my girlfriends father saw it was in her handwriting! 😀 -
Thanks for that suggestion. I struggled a bit getting my order through using my US credit card, but hopefully our new vacuum will arrive by April 15th. Amazon UK makes it easy to get purchases to Thailand. I didn't think to check UK. I assumed shipping would be easier/quicker/cheaper from Australia.

Day 36. 29.03.24. Ban Krut to Phetchaburi. Riding north from Ban Krut this morning our first stop was at Ao Manao, here. https://maps.app.goo.gl/PZ5ctvQcUS7n4Fpx7 Next I stopped for a very quick snap of the bike on runway at at Prachuap Kiri Khan Military Airport runway. I was told to delete the photo by the military police that caught me, but I forgot! https://maps.app.goo.gl/yPyrPscKv7y2AZY96 Next was an un-named beach in Kuburi, here. https://maps.app.goo.gl/mmoKgejSna72DZPe7 Further north we stopped at Pranburi Beach, here, https://maps.app.goo.gl/uzx2kWxzZz6xqPZN9 We then carried onto our Hotel at Petchaburi, Monglay Home, here. https://maps.app.goo.gl/qGdvJ64ppwL5TZKg8 https://www.relive.cc/view/veqz15NyVB6 -
Israel is at War - General discussion (pt3)

You didn't answer my question ? And haven't you paused to reflect that the image evokes sympathy in the viewer, not celebration, or are you incapable of universal, unconditional empathy ? -

You mean the "tax cuts to the rich" Trump? Or the Big Pharma and Big Oil Trump? Or the "my family has been financed by Saudi Arabia and Qatar" Trump? 😀 -
Barred from Europe: 2.4m Brits caught in post-Brexit passport chaos
RayC replied to Social Media's topic in World News
I remember reading the BBC article which you quote and thinking it was interesting. Not much (anything?) in it to support the idea that Brexit has had any economic benefits. However, in the interests of balance It should be pointed out that not everyone agrees with the German Finance Ministers analysis. It appears that a pro-Brexit 'think tank' believes that Brexit hasn't negatively affected German exports https://www.briefingsforbritain.co.uk/it-is-a-myth-that-brexit-has-damaged-uk-german-trade/ Personally, I agree with Michel Barnier: There are no winners from Brexit. Both the UK and the EU member states (some more than others) are suffering as a result of it which, imo makes the decision all the more bone-headed. -

American voters booted him out of the office after 1 term. Sure don’t square up with your glorious description of Trump. -

Plans for Thailand's first nuclear power plant
AgMech Cowboy replied to george's topic in Thailand News
It's about time. I worked with many Thai Engineers during the years that I worked in Thailand. All very smart and capable people. They will first attend the nuclear physics and engineer universities, meanwhile the company that plunges into the nuclear business will use expat engineers, physicists, operators and construction consultants to design, build and manage the plants, all the while training Thai operators, engineers, etc. to take over from them in the future. The nah sayers on here haven't a clue about the capabilities and intellect of the Thai people who are not part of the entertainment, accomodation and leeches that they associate with most of the time. -

Cabinet green lights bills to modify alcohol control law

"a move that could potentially lead to extended selling hours and more relaxed advertising rules. This decision has, however, sparked controversy among anti-alcohol advocates. Talk about stating the bleeding obvious! -
Israel is at War - General discussion (pt3)
beautifulthailand99 replied to Social Media's topic in The War in Israel
Here are all the photos - including one's showing Israel suffering and designed to invoke sympathy in the viewer not celebrating the act. They are amazing photos that give an insight into the fractured human condition. Who could forget the poor girl injured by a napalm attack in the Vietnam War, one of the great iconic photos of the 20th Century. Israeli media widely shared that image at the time, did you criticise that at the time ? https://apnews.com/article/photos-2023-yearend-photography-ap-0a62ee84672da7a03685c5f5f64f2c47 -
Just finished the RT Chiang Mai to Bangkok and return. Yep, noted the drop in speed signs along the way. By the time of deceleration from 120 to 90 and then recovering the 120 speed after the U-Turn ... Hmm, keeping my fingers crossed as I tried to maintain 110-120 on the designated, separated highways.

Before I came to Thailand, i never used a wallet. My paper money was rolled like a sausage and kept wit a rubber. It was always used in "Last in, first out" order I bought my first wallet in Thailand and learned to store the monkey properly. Like most Thai people that days.
