Re: News of the Weird - this just in!

I put this here as it is surely weird! It is also a long article, so rather than clutter up the space, just read it at the link if you are interested!

Re: The Pick-Up Truck Thread

I don't have a lot of confidence in this or any new engine with little to no history.

I found a link that said it would be B1,799,000 - that’s an awful lot of money for a pickup!! https://www.ford.co.th/buy/build-and-price.html?searchid=aw_17618190447_____x__&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADvDIHS3sisKoaAbQXxsrGhtL9YgC&gclid=CjwKCAjwte-vBhBFEiwAQSv_xYtlDm2T1G7IDIvnAaXB-PU3POGs...

Re: Top cop 'Big Joke' charged with bribery

That "bling" gets me! They are like little children at a fancy dress party!

It never was posted exactly what "Big Joke" did a couple of years ago when he scuttled off to some Temple overseas.

Re: Domestic Air Purifiers

I know nothing about these things, but I presume you have to have all the doors and windows in your house closed for them to function? Do you guys run them all the time or just at night, are they an extra strain on the electric bill (like a/c)? How much are the filters and how often do they need ch...

Re: Which Hua Hin Area Attraction Is Your Number 1

Please tell more about the boat ride - I'm not aware of that one. Sorry Big Boy, I guess I shouldn't have included, it was my boat. But I do see a rental boat advertising on facebook. BTW you're welcome to a ride on mine! Just be aware of the no entry zone in front of the palace. Not very well defi...

Re: Thailand News Summary

We all know what the police are like, so it is difficult to understand just what is going on there. About all that we can be sure of is that the police will stick to their own story, no matter what the truth may be! If the police just deport the Kiwis without a jail sentence, then you can pretty muc...

Re: Buying meat

Until fairly recently I’ve never noticed it being a problem, but lately buying raw meat (normally chicken or pork) from Makro, I’ve noticed that unless you cook it within one day of purchase, there’s normally a very off-putting smell when you take the meat out of the bag. Has anybody else noticed t...
