  1. Not far away of course are the Map Da Put oil terminals in Rayong which have been known in the past to have leaked in to the sea.
  2. Would any of you moaners have liked to fly on a plane with leaking hydraulics? I think I would rather stay in the hotel and use the food vouchers offered. I have flown Jetstar many times Bangkok to Melbourne and back, mostly without any problems except during the epidemic where, once, was delayed 8 hours and was provided accommodation and food. As I say, better safe than sorry.
  3. So, no blame to the sugar cane driver pulling out across the lanes in front of the bus?
  4. .... except for my Thai 11yo grandson who managed to slip through the auto gates unimpeded yesterday. I didn't know where he had gone! Fortunately there was a manned gate next to the auto gates with nobody there that they let me through avoiding the hugh queues. Found him inside the terminal.
  5. I have, on many occasions, brought my step son's son, who lives with my wife and I in Thailand, to Australia to visit with his dad. Most times I have his dad sign a letter, plus a signed copy of his passport, giving his permission for this to occur. Only one time have I ever needed to use the letter. Just today, armed with the letter, my grandson, now 11 years old, took it into his head to go through the automatic check-in by himself. Nobody stopped him. I questioned the immigration officer present who replied that if the boy is tall enough then that's OK. TIT
  6. Same with me in Phetchabun. They tell me that it is not required.
  7. And I don't know why atrain would be going through Khon Kaen to Chiang Mai?
  8. Up here in the mid north things are different. That vehicle would be a song taew. A tuk tuk here is an old single cylinder flat bed that makes a noise like it's name. The three wheel things are called Sam laws, I.e. three wheels, not tuk tuks
  9. It seems that not many read the follow up where it stated that a skull and pelvic bone were also found
  10. At Tha Li, The border to Loas, they had a form which they attached to my passport which was full. This enabled me to do the border hop and then apply for a new passport. Vientiane denied that they had a form so I went to Tha Li who had told me about the form on a previous occasion.
  11. Said he came in on a charted flight. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink.
  12. You need to deposit an advance of say $20 which can have auto top up. You dial any number direct and the charge is very very little. If the recipient has Skype, which most businesses have? Then the call is free.
  13. If you have a black out then your inverter won't work so solar is not much use.
  14. At the end of the test it displays the answers you got wrong and the correct answer
  15. Not according to the article. She swerved to avoid his truck which was moving lanes, presumable into her lane, and hit the back of his truck. Sounds like he moved into her lane without seeing her.
  16. Skype. You establish a credit and then use it the same as you would a land line. Incredibly cheap.
  17. For a start, it's going to, not gonna!
  18. Phetchabun is a nice place with Kao Kho and Pu Taburk national parks and mountain resorts close by. Popular with Thais during winter
  19. It said 'as it cruised along the runway'. Not the taxiway.
