Re: Thai police require stricter foreigner screening and monthly case reports
^^ This sort of thing is national news every day even when only Thais are involved. Unlike in UK, politics and scandal are glossed over because, well, defamation. This just leaves road accidents, petty crime (unless a really serious crime takes over the headlines), naughty monks and what is someone ...

Re: The journey to a Yellow Book in Hua Hin
@GeorgieGirl An agent can probably help with getting documentation translated and certified (passports mainly). You'll also need transliterations of your parents' names. You will also need a copy (maybe the original?) of the residence blue book, and your landlord's (if you're renting) id card. As fo...

Re: Songkran 2024 Road Accidents
There's also the counting method; killed on the spot or dies later in hospital. I don't think we ever hear or see anything published about the latter. Also, motorcycles seem to be the star of the show once again and always. According to thairsc.com 62 people died on the roads yesterday. 2,264 were ...

Re: Songkran to become 1 month festival
The mayor has actually admitted that the water stoppages are in order to redirect water supply for 'Songkran' festivities! Hua Hin’s water management authorities have said there will be a temporary suspension of the water supply from the Khao Laeng Water Production Plant. The suspension, aimed at r...

Re: Which Mobile Phone?
We were in a doughnut shop yesterday and the shop assistant's husband/boyfriend, a Lineman rider, was also there. He'd just bought a brand new folding screen phone and was busy applying the screen protectors on the outside. Too expensive for me, I thought. How could they afford it? Or, why? I didn't...

Just seen this on Hua Hin FB. Town water will be reduced or stopped in various parts of HH today (10th). It's in Thai, but anyway...

Re: Decommissioning a device
Thank you, that's great advice regarding the tablet. I have no worries regarding the new owner, but its extended family that I don't trust. With the lappie, that sounds like something Mr. Don could do for a few Baht. The laptop was actually recovered as it was being thrown out about 6 years ago. My...

Re: Looking For New Tablet
OK, the beastie arrived just after 12. Did the video of it being unpacked. FFS, it came in 3 boxes - I thought I'd bought a tablet from IKEA. 1 box for the tablet 1 box for the case 1 box for the free gift (a travel flask and 2 cups :? ) Initial thoughts were utter disappointment. I presumed that e...

Re: Which Mobile Phone?
Been digging deeper and it seems harder to get hold of models that are a year or two old here, such as the Poco F5 or X5 (unless you want to take the chance with third-party shops on Laz). The X6 doesn't have enough extra to warrant the 35% price difference, and the Note 13 has slower charging and ...

Re: News of the Weird - this just in!
Well, honestly, I can't see why it would only affect one particular group. Would the female or male sex workers not be affected? But as your post is only a screenshot, it's not possible to tell what the whole story is. The story is here (taken from Lost's last post): https://www.context.news/climat...

Re: Looking For New Tablet
OK guys, I've gone for my upper range Samsung, minus the 5G capability. I'm happy it will more than meet my modest requirements. I did go for the 11" in the end as the higher spec 8.7" model did not seem to be available, and there was quite a difference in power. Thank you to all who cont...
