Ill assume the braless socks and sandals brigade are crowding out the coffee shops in the mall. Free AC. It was obvious the locals didn't give a care about their general health and went hard over Songkran, we have had at 2 or 3 a dayheat affected directly after Songkran with the ambulance called ou...

During the course of the Gaza war, hundreds of journalists, aid workers, rescue staff and paramedics have been killed by the IDF. And now mass graves are being found with hundreds of bodies, some with hands bound and evidence of execution. Not exactly what you expect from an army capable of very se...

I know a few years back, they banned tuk tuk's from entering the airport. Not sure if that's changed but it's not a terribly long hike from the terminal to the main road... unless its hot like right now!

No respite

Hi Dean, are you still able to hold court of a day and sup Tetley's Smooth Ale?

Asking for a friend (my wife wants me out of the house).

From 1999 to 2017, the Landmine Monitor has recorded over 120,000 casualties from mines, IEDs and explosive remnants of war; it estimates that another 1,000 per year go unrecorded. The estimate for all time is over half a million. In 2017, at least 2,793 were killed and 4,431 injured. 87% of the ca...

Meanwhile, back on topic, the linked articles refer to the very recent reports that Prawit's latest declared assets of around THB 87 million, revealed by the NACC, includes luxury cars, real estate, land and a healthy bank account? But only one (1) watch.

Hi Tim, welcome to "the map".

Can you give us a Google map reference as Nam Som and Sam Liam don't offer up anything unique or accurate. Your either near the Loei border or out past Bandung.

Another thing that can help us stay active through the heat is pre-hydration. Don't wait until you're hot and thirsty before you re-hydrate. Think of your body as an old, leaky car radiator that needs topping up on road trips.

NB: Chang isn't a good coolant.

Good deal indeed, well done.

Maybe uninstall any of the programs you won't need? There's no way of knowing if the reseller used hacked versions to install them. W11's native Defender (?) antivirus should be sufficient to keep it clean.

For info, my recent paper chase was once again driven by my UK offshore bank's ongoing desire to know where I live (tax domicile). After much faffing about, including misinformation from their own due-dilligence people, yesterday they advised me, "Thailand is a jurisdiction in which we cannot accept...

^ Excellent clarimification there DM.

Chances are if caught in a traffic stop, a cop may go for this if everything else is in order (and he can be arsed). TBH, with this heat, I haven't seen any daytime cop stops in the "usual places" so fingers-crossed until it gets painted.

Homepro

With the extension into Mega Home now open, I suspect HomePro furniture and bedding areas will be expanding.

Thai Watsadu on east ring also. Not sure if their new outlet in the former Home Hub on the Nonhkhai road (near DoHome) has them yet.

Let's hope the "woke" tide is never reversed, so we see ourselves again in a society where racism, sexism, antisemitism, and just about any similar "ism" you care to name was accepted, and in many ways, embraced in society. Like in any social movement, dampen down the excesses that the article focu...

Did the same myself last year. Another option is get 60 day visa extension from Udon immigration for 2000thb if I remember correctly. Honestly can't remember what paperwork they required but it didn't take long. Before 60 days apply for marriage extension no problem. Cheers That may be a better opt...
