Re: Fifa 2022 World Cup Qatar

"Perfect quality" with inane childish ads every ten minutes and still the chance of buffering which PPTV36 does all the time anyway? VPN, thanks. The only announcement that I've seen so far with details of the coverage didn't mention it being on PPTV36. Thais nationwide will be able to en...

Re: Weather in Hua Hin & Thailand

The water in the street outside our house is a couple of feet deep at the moment. Worst it's been this year.

Well, that's what it says it is on the jar, so you're probably right.

Re: Hua Hin dual-track rail project to go ahead

There will be an underpass The road crossings will still exist in the centre e.g. Sois 70, 88 & 94. So, which is it? Underpass or grade crossings? As far as I'm aware (and as BB alludes to) the only underpass will be a pedestrian one at the station itself. There will be no vehicle underpasses a...

BB, do you know what (if any) Covid-related requirements there are for HHC games nowadays?

Re: Weather in Hua Hin & Thailand

I'm not in Hua Hin at the moment but I can see (and hear) from our outside security cameras that there's been a big thunder and lightning storm going on in Soi 106 area this evening. I keep getting warnings that motion has been detected - which seems to be from the reflections of the lightning strik...

Re: Uefa Women's Euro 2022

I see now that it's sexist to refer to the England Women's Football Team as the "Lionesses" - they should be called the "Lions" as are the Men's....... F***ing pathetic!! :cuss: :banghead: Where are you "seeing" this? As far as I can tell this was a comment by one BBC ...

Re: Wanted: House Cleaner

You could try this lady. She cleans for some friends of mine and they say she's the best cleaner they've ever had.

She doesn't speak English all that well but she can certainly clean, by all accounts.

Re: 120 kph speed limit comes local

In the US it’s the inside lane, as in “in towards the center of the highway, inside all the other lanes”. This from the birds eye view of looking straight down onto the highway. I’m curious now, if it’s the outside lane in the UK, what is it outside of and what is the reference point ? I’ve seen th...

Re: Thai national coming to visit farang at home (UK)

Word of warning to anyone undertaking this process - it takes 3 months after the appointment to get the passport and visa back so allow a lot of time and don't book your flights before you get it! That's what they told my wife when she handed in her application in early June (well, they told her &q...

It was definitely my attempts to slide. Just a simple click did it. The box at the bottom wouldn't come into play until I'd done the click and even then, it didn't come into play until enough time had elapsed for me to have read the T&Cs. I had the same problem. Kept trying to slide it and noth...

Re: Electric Cars

Not sure that's true. Both the MEA and PEA tariffs show peak and off peak rates. I think that you will find that those off peak rates only apply to consumers with their own HV transformers. Or in some cases: "Mates rates"! Ah, OK. Still, on "the other place" I do see people, liv...
