    What's with this opening round?  8 teams line up this week and then front up again next week.   I would've thought they would have next week off.  After round 1 they have played 2 games and everyone else only 1.  A head start.

    Over the following rounds those that played this weekend will have a bye. From round 2  on 2 teams will have a bye. They all catch up by round 7.  I think it is a stupid idea. "Round 1"is officially next week.

    I believe Kratom to be legal other than to sell to under 18's, and pregnant or breast feeding women. .

    From the linked article.

    Police are warning local groceries in Phuket and Thailand that Kratom juice is listed as a controlled herbal product and any such controlled herbal product cannot be produced or sold without permission by the Thai Food and Drug Administration.

    Kratom Juice is also not allowed to be added as an ingredient or mixed into other food or juice for selling. So even pure Kratom Juice in a bottle cannot be sold, especially on public streets.

    In Bangkok (and on MFA web site is says everywhere) they require both parents to attend if the 'child' is under the age of 20, unless a parent that doesn't attend provides a letter of authority allowing their kid to have a passport, which letter has to be issued by the district office where the parent's ID card is issued - can't just be any old letter ...
     

    Which can lead to the ridiculous situation whereby a 19-year old, living independently overseas, can fly solo into Thailand on a soon-to-expire Thai passport but then needs parental authority to get a new passport to fly out ... (I speak from recent experience)

     

    They take the photos at the passport office using a professional grade digital camera. It all looks very efficient (in and out in 15 mins if you book an appointment) until you start to consider how much money was wasted to buy 1,000 or whatever cameras, 1,000 fingerprint scanners, 1,000 printers, 1,000 computers, 1,000 tables and chairs and then to pay wages of 1,000 passport processing staff.

     

    Thankyou for your post.

    Listen to the Mrs if you value your property & life!

     

    I don’t expect to die of natural causes as originally planned here.

     

    Currently have a feud with the Dog

    neighbor and other minor issues, like 

    beeping the horn at careless motorists/ motorbike drivers.

     

    Listen to your Mrs.

    You always beep at carless motorists/motorbike riders to prevent an accident. That way it is legal.
