I use Expedia all the time and have never had a problem, but I don't book a bedroom in a house. I use it for flights, real hotels, and car rentals.Quote:

We were planning to go back for a while in October but that is not going to happen, with no good outlook going forward. Feels like we had a great 9 years there with the best of times and tons of friends which will be tough if not impossible to ever recreate. Sigh.....Quote:

I am sick of this covid shit also.
420K cases there compared to Thailand's 244K, and you'd have to navigate through BKK and Athens compared to remaining in your Isaan backwater.Quote:

Went to Super Rich Changwattana today to buy some dollars. I have a feeling the baht is going to suffer in the short term. Was shocked when they said no dollars come back tomorrow.
^ Reminds me of '97.
I should look to transfer some moneh. Make up for what I got shafted for in ‘97. :bananaman:
Just had an email from our headteacher.
Theres a few weeks left till the Summer holidays but there's serious talk of shutting the school down because if this Indian Covid variant.
Will this Covid shit never end?

Thailand just pushed their normalization date to October. So no. Probably not. Despair is going to set in like it never has before.Quote:

Been a long haul - returning home in late August/early September.
Plastic tube covered skipping rope to the baby toe.
The PlayStation Plus games for July are very underwhelming considering I'm off for the month.
How old are you?

The airport to Napa shuttle service is closed so looks like Uber which is always fun with 4 big suitcases and 2 carry on. I told my wife let's just take 2 carry on and buy cheap suitcases in the US before we return. Of course that went over like a lead balloon. She has her little courier deals both ways going on to pay for her airfare which I have to admit is pretty funny but I am the one having to coordinate all the luggage stuff.Quote:

Hopefully when we are about to return we will catch a window where cases are low and the knuckleheads call off ASQ programs for fully vaccinated folks.
Ok....moan over. Beer time. :)
This is how my day started, mate sent me a pic of a human bone (thigh?) they're exhuming.
So that was nice. :sad:

I sweated my bollocks off cutting my privet hedges to fill the green recycling wheelie bin up.
In my dehydrated and sun stroked state I put it out for collection by the roadside.
However, I got the week wrong and it was the general rubbish wheelie bin collection week.
Needless to say the bin full wasn't disposed off.
Now I have to wait another week for disposal and all the bins are full.
What I did find amusing was that all of my neighbour's had followed my lead and put the wrong bin out for collection.
Now everyone on the road has full bins all week with excess waste to dispose off next week :)
First world problems :smileylaughing:
Awesome... Updates. :sad:
