Re: Thailand Droughts Thread

Tankyou! Do you filter the water and drink it? At our condo we have two tanks. The first being the input/sediment tank and the second being the overfill that takes water from the first minus the sediment (hopefully). The second tank provides the output water to the condominium. They are open tanks s...

@HHTel, I'm curious how you keep your tanks clean...?

Re: Wise formerly Transferwise

I did two large transfers in the past week whilst the exchange rate was 'ok'.
Arrived instantaneously. No issue.

Re: GBP vs THB

Impressed with the Wise savings rates. Recently went from 4.55% up to 4.78% on the USD account.
GBP currently at 4.12%.
Not available in Thailand unfortunately. Should have switched my account to the U.K. a long time ago.

Re: Pilot refuses to land over unfastened seatbelts

I’ve worked and travelled extensively throughout the Middle East and Subcontinent and I’m afraid to say that I saw numerous examples of people ignoring the seatbelt signs on planes - somewhat similar to the “me first” scenario witnessed in Thailand. Seen it countless times in the Middle East. Comin...

Re: The bikers thread; trips, news, chat, all things motorcycle

My MSX125 indicators have completely perished after sitting in the heat for so long. Anyone have any recommendations for accessories shops selling aftermarket parts?
Cheers,

Re: Whiskeys

Guess I'll have to start gifting away my bottles then.... :|
I think most are unopened so the whisky may still be ok I'll just have to expect every cork to die upon opening...

Re: Whiskeys

I've got a small Whisky collection at the condo which hasn't been touched in a while since I'm 'off-it' just now. A few days ago I had a neighbour visit so I thought I'd crack open a new bottle of GlenGlassaugh. The cork completely disintegrated upon opening and the fragments had to be pushed into t...
