Trump: ‘I don’t know’ if Putin was responsible for Navalny’s death
Chelseafan replied to Social Media's topic in World News
The juries out on which one is more unhinged. At least with Putin, you know what you're getting. -
Yes, which I believe is the equivalent of 23carat. Do they sell 100% pure in Thailand as I've never seen it

If you think about it, it's not weird. In the UK (and if you are a certain age), you weigh things in pounds and you buy things in pounds. As I see it, it's the same principal as Baht. Someone will probably correct me Buying gold from a reputable shop is generally seen as an insurance for Thai people. When they have some money, they will buy gold and when their luck is down, they will sell often at a profit providing the price go's up.

I'm not disputing the findings, particuarly from a distinguised polling company such as gallup but I'm aways reminded of this clip from probably one of the best comedies ever made -

A few more tips. Rramp up those airmiles, credit cards (pay in full each month!) , hotels etc. Try and stick to the same group of airlines, Star Alliance, Oneworld etc. Although having said that, getting reward tickets is getting harder. -

Just offering an option and with more capacity on the route it might make EVA & Thai a little more competitive Yes, London > Bangkok has never been a lucrative route versus say London>New York I'm beginning to experiment flying from different airports. Stockholm > Bangkok is a lot cheaper for example even with a hoppover from London Dublin seems cheap too, not saying it's the most direct option but if the OP is looking to save a few quid, it might be an idea. I live in Watford so Gatwick isn't too far 🙂 -

BA are supposed to be restarting their routes in Oct/Nov, so maybe you want to wait as there will be more competition - no guarantees though. There's defintely some profiteering going on. I generally fly F and fares have doubled since Covid -
Thailand Sees Surge in Condo Purchases Among Foreign Buyers
Chelseafan replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Totally agree. If you look at any market around the world, I would guess the stats are pretty much the same. 90% local, 10% foreign. Non story! -
Greenville Laguna might be what you need.

Lone Kuwaiti Tourist Fights Off Five Young Teen Robbers in Pattaya
Chelseafan replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Unfortunately necessity means that parents have to travel for work. Look at bargirls for example, do you really think they can support their kid while they are out on the game? Good grandparents will raise good kids but as someone else alluded to, there are a lot of bad or indifferent Grand-parents out there. -
Bangkok braces for severe outbreak of three diseases
Chelseafan replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Quire right but there should be no expectation that said person will get medical care if they become infected, although having said that, the same could be said for smokers, heavy drinkers, the obese etc... -
I find Thai's website one of the worst to naviagte through and they certainly make it difficult to claim award tickets.
