Apologies if this has a prior post, but I found myself glad for Ming and her efforts over the years... Hope she goes on with it... https://aseannow.com/topic/1250346-thai-woman-wins-world-snooker-championship-now-mink-gets-crack-at-the-men-on-the-main-tour/ Cheers...and kill the 5th day

and how many lives???

For Oz expats - may be of interest. Long slept thread, but have recently found an ad free site for AFL replays (August 2021). Will paste a recent game that I watched. Blurb is that it is still in Beta mode but I have found it here in Adelaide to be almost perfect for a replay. Maybe you will need a VPN in Pattaya, who knows? You are able to select the round, then game, then by each quarter... https://www.afl.com.au/ondemand/highlights/568753/2021-afl-match-replays?episode=1#round-19 (Open link in new private window worked here in Win10 using firefox) Not trying to

Had started using the A350 with SIA a few times until covid stopped that abruptly. Very nice plane...

Sadly, don't think he he was the brightest crayon in the pack. When I've scuba dived over rays, I left them way alone. This dude had to pat every bloody thing...

Have been curious about keymoney for some time, although never likely to start a businsess in Pattaya myself. Previous threads are around 2006, with one a bit later. So thought I would throw this youtube in for others who may also be curious. Do expect that there are a huge number of varied situations of keymoney (or lack of) currently... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYc3tUJ59m0 Cheers... PS: vid would not open without opening in a new window???

Well, no-one is going to pinch one of those if you need to go to the loo...

Should have done but one of the over enthusiastic mods would probably get his nose out of joint for showing up "their" article...

Another point is a PA thread, which had the informative article quoted, was immediately shut down. Another PA thread, directly from the Pattaya News, which revealed SFA, remained open... Perhaps I should have posted this in the Sins of... thread...

Might be an option... https://bangkokpost.pressreader.com/bangkok-post

Nah, safe as houses, has safety tape around it...

Thanks also, had forgotten about Bahtsold... Prior to 2020, I normally did two 30 day trips during Oz winter, with about a two and a half week gap in the middle, when I returned to Oz. So my thinking is, I could look at renting a condo, near central hopefully, for three complete months... One bed, with kitchenette, wifi, balcony, etc would be ideal for me. Could leave most of my stuff behind for the brief return home. I have been staying at a guesthouse and leaving most of my stuff, in the guesthouse, for the period I returned home. There is not even a microwave in the guesthouse...

Benidorm sounds a goer. Have fun. Bali is where half of Oz seems to go and that is exactly the reason I have never gone and will never go there. That's just me though. Cheers

Thanks for the response. Agree, the three year scenario would be sad but not unrealistic... The quarantining at own expense (also at either end for me) and the exreme hoop jumping is beyond the pale and must relax... If nothing else changes, will have to find something else to spend my money on . TG in my hometown visits (now Saturdays - today) every week and I really do enjoy her company and efforts. Do pay more than I need to, on my own initiative, over a number of years. Rewards are great massage, no rush, good company and sincere relationship. Sometimes in Pattya, while havi

My two trips over June/July/August this year obviously covid cancelled ? TBH, cannot see how I can have any plans for 2021. There are so many pieces of the puzzle that are yet to line up to enable even a stab in the dark as to when I will next travel. Might even be 2022 - who knows??? Anyway, will be 70 after May 2022 so airport transit would be easier then... The bad things: Current Oz ban on overseas travel must be lifted. Airlines must schedule return flights . I will not travel while two week quarantines are in force (at either end) as my trips are only 30 days

Here's what MWB is telling me about PA today...

Some years ago my local council here in Oz had some renovating done to their buildings. The pavers on the footpath outside were laid three times before the job was finally finished. TiT can happen elsewhere

Just a follow up to ^^^ Just got another TROJAN warning and blockage for PattayaOne News tonight...third day running... Anyway, here's a screen dump of the previous few days, via MWB+ for info...might be of use to some techy...over my head...

Well, this sure is an old thread, but I have received TROJAN warnings for the last two nights for PayttayaOne News, from Malwarebytes Plus. Guess this could have been posted on the NW Group thread Anyway, for info...

Just throwing this new one in as it may be of interest to those who travel to lots of countries. Of course, NO-ONE is doing much travelling at the moment, but that will not last forever... Am not recommending the product personally as I have both OZ and Thai sims and that's what suits me. https://www.xda-developers.com/hmd-connect-sim-card-global-data-roaming/

Am able to log in now to two apps for the airports that I normally pass through, Singapore and Bangkok. They both have access, though their menus, to wifi login. In my case, I consider this will be hugely useful in Changi, as I am there for not much more than an hour and I should be able to go straight online on landing, enabling www catch up. I guess app for Suvarnabhumi will not be as useful for me in Suvarnabhumi normally as I will have clicked my AIS sim on. (May be useful in completing the new T.8 on arrival but I have also printed copies of the new form) Changi download is detai

Perhaps this is not exactly a "funny picture" but it has made me smile more than once. Had to trim the youtube way down so I could post it. LINE'd it to a few TG's who loved it... Six-Year-Old Muay Thai Prodigy Practices With Father.mp4

Yes, saw him last month on the Poon, a number of times. Maybe a screw loose but he looks happy and harmless.
