That is enough heat to destroy the virus. And take your iron to the shop and iron your change. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I am totally not bored, plenty to do. However when you said results were not good putting the Bht20 note in the toaster, and I came back with 'You mean it f...ked the toaster? LOL' the LOL means it is not serious. Then you had to reiterate that 'F...ed the 20 baht note. Toaster's OK.' so obviously did not understand the humour in my comment. Sorry Lacessit, English s o h takes some getting used to, as you will see if you look at some of the posts here with funny? pictures etc. Keep safe and stay at home.

I was just giving back a bit more detail. The Australian sense of humor is a bit more laconic than the English version. More deadpan. We can do slapstick as well.

The advice is about notes in circulation - what are you thinking? I know. What a thicky eh! It's a shame they didn't tweak the virus so that it'd take out all the numpties. Mind you, there'd be nobody to take the pi$$ out of then. Edited April 8, 2020 by daveAustin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the small businesses accept cash. Difficult for cashless. Money has been shown by many studies to be one of the dirtiest things around because so many people have touched it. In the USA I use my credit card for everything. I pay it off and get the cash back. There have been 3 instances where my card was hacked or stolen in the last three years but the charges were not that big and were easily caught. Lately citicards system blocked the last attempt last year. The downside to using the card is it does increase the chance of it being hacked or stolen or used somehow, and then to get a new card you have to wait for snail mail. That has been a bit of a problem when I was working on the road. I have one main card that has a high credit limit and I used that to buy my used SUV. I have two smaller ones that I keep for emergencies and I used now and then just to keep them fresh and viable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 20s, 50s, 100s, 500s and 1,000s aren't, is there a new note in circulation? Polymer 50 baht notes were introduced in May, 1997 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Rama IX's accession to the throne. It is rare to find them today and I think almost all of them would have been removed from general circulation due to wear and tear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The notes should then be rinsed with water before being gently dabbed with a cloth and placed under the sun to dry........This is what I meant by it...
