Slowdown weighs on current account Thailand's waning appeal in terms of attracting foreign direct investment (FDI), an uneven tourism recovery and the currency outlook are pressuring the country's current account surplus, which is still below the pre-pandemic level, says BMI, a Fitch Solutions comp...

To quote myself, nice try, but "you're not going to convert me". The one you referenced costs nearly triple what our Mitsu Triton did and I'm pretty sure it'll run problem free for at least the next decade (as our previous Mitsu did). If all charging had to be done at stations that would c...

But in TH, unless actually needing a truck, (2 options coming next year) I think people are crazy if their next new car here is an ICEV. I've followed this debate but haven't contributed and will remain on the fence for now ( we have and need a truck , so you're not going to convert me). Got 3 poss...

Yep, a bit of fettling and it works now. Will definitely be changing VPN when the subscription runs out in a couple of months.

Trying to watch the North West 200 on iPlayer but getting the "iPlayer only works in the UK" error using Express VPN. Is this no longer an option? (was going to change VPN providers anyway when this runs out). Edit: seems to be a browser issue, it'll only work with Chrome. Edit 2: still no...

I used an agent and was advised not to use a UK card because the bank would want to call to verify the transaction. Used a K-Bank Visa debit card which worked (passport still not back after 7 weeks though so prepare for a long wait).

All the CJ stores stock Carabao beers, they own the franchise. Its a shame most of the bars and restaurants still only sell the 'chemical three' though.

Aye, y'ull need a wee but o' heelp wi tha Glaswegian laddie.

Jeremy Clarkson has fired up his tractor again for the third season of Clarkson's Farm.

Two others I've got lined up are Granite Harbour, a Scottish police drama, and 16th century English whodunnit Shardlake ... I know, but not much new sci-fi about at the moment!
