  1. Why does the advert not tell us how much?
  2. Yes thanks for taking the time and making the effort. I don't want to be a snake oil salesman but a few friends seriously recommend black (fermented) garlic and claim it has reduced their blood sugar levels allowing reduction of medication. Also blood pressure improvements, again allowing elimination of medication. Keep it up.
  3. I don't wish to be pedantic but my neighbour fitted nice mozzie screen doors onto his terrace to go outside..... cat seems to have figured them out already. I really would be scared to have a toddler and a balcony...... I am scared of a high one myself!
  4. I would expect THB.
  5. Did you get the OK from the condo management....?
  6. Maybe they will put AC! It is a place I would like to browse more in but usually too hot! PS Isn't it behind The Marina rather than Central (to me that is Central Festival)?
  7. If someone is standing too close behind at the ATM I do it on theirs.
  8. I have fixed more things and come out looking like a magician by pulling a circuit board out, and pushing it back in than I care to remember.... I called it push-pull faults.
  9. Seems I never had that problem.... but using an eraser to clean up contacts a touch is an old 'fix'.... overdo it and any thin layer of gold there is gone. Had the cards for a long time? Keep them loose in your pocket? I actually just replaced mine as I think I left it sitting in some machine.
  10. Very much so, thank you.
  11. Yes me too.... especially if some model assignments can be fitted in there.
  12. Talking to someone yesterday just back from Phuket.... dead apparently. Pattaya doing better.
  13. I was quite aware I was setting myself up, providing the loaded weapon etc..... it all adds to the entertainment even if I am the butt of it all.
  14. Many people wearing masks seem to position them below the nose anyhow, is this perhaps why? One I bought in Bangkok is my current favourite, it appears to have been cut straight from a fat girl's stretchy lycra pants and hardly impedes breathing. I bet you could get over a hundred masks out of a single pair.
  15. Perhaps due to the digging out and dredging that has been done to improve the capacity and catchment and diminish future supply issues....... naw.
  16. I have just deleted a post about tinned ham.
  17. Well it is no longer 'shrinking'......
  18. STV from what I hear, they can stay 90 days straight and potentially extend for a further 180. With that duration of stay, get the flights in organized and soon fill the place up. Hope it is just Phuket, but of course after quarantine they can go anywhere.
  19. More info on this... https://www.thephuketnews.com/visa-extensions-approved-under-previous-amnesty-to-be-upheld-until-nov-30-77483.php
  20. For those in the UK.
  21. The latest, although a cabinet meeting today will finalize things. Thailand extends grace period for stranded foreigners https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/1993035/thailand-extends-grace-period-for-stranded-foreigners
  22. I was talking of my own personal experience here in Thailand, recent. A pal of mine was pulled over last week and issued a ticket, no 'on the spot' fine. I was in town just a few hours ago and did not see any particular police presence. As you said, your experience was a long time ago and I believe what I read last night was fear mongering. I still would not trust any of them of course. But I have had few issues in recent times, getting pulled over is quite frequent, road blocks are common. It is how they do things rather than have a reason. Since there may well be another amnesty (still only a rumour) I do not expect police to be checking passports in Pattaya.
