Re: Building time Regulations
A condo was recently built outside my bedroom window, they started at 08.00 and final knock off was 22.00, 7 days a week. I found that loads of alcohol helped me sleep.

Re: Bangkok Bank debit card and purchasing.
I've had my card rejected in Villa before, and then an hour after going to the ATM and paying cash, the payment went through to Villa. It took a month to get the money back. I have used it since, and the places it gets rejected are Banana IT, Springfield golf course and Villa.

Buy a new laptop with Windows 10. After using it for a while, especially if you install new office features, you will wonder why you were using your existing system for so long. Desktops are getting archaic. A laptop has a battery system, along with a charger, which reduces the chances of electricit...
