No. The BTS Senior Rabbit Card is only for Thai citizens (https://btsbangkok.com/rabbit-card) but the MRT senior card was available to anyone over 60 regardless of nationality or residence (it must have been, as I had one!) As a lawyer you may be amused by the minutiae: those over 65 were entitled to the discount, while those 60-65 were merely privileged to receive it. (E&OE)

There are Asian publishers that Amazon has never heard of. Next time you're in Thailand (or a friend is!) you might find books from those publishers in some of the more academically-oriented Bangkok bookshops. For example: Asia Books https://www.asiabooks.com/en/search.html?query=cambodia&source=all&page=1 Kinokuniya https://thailand.kinokuniya.com/ Dasa Books https://dasabooks.com/search Chula Books https://www.chulabook.com/en/categories?text=cambodia

HR... Hormone Replacement? (yes, I know. Now I'm having nightmares abour Dame Edna having hot flushes 🥵)

My guess would be "no", but one would hope that the instructor did. 😈

There's another Erawan where it's impossible to believe that you are not in Thailand 😈: Inside:

By the way, a prospective visitor might ask what's the difference between the three museums. I'd say the Death Railway Museum by the cemetery is a well-funded modern museum and visitor experience up to modern international museum standards. The other two are essentially one-man (or one-monk?) projects - labours of love but sadly underfunded. The JEATH War Museum has reconstructed POW huts housing press clippings and original art works made by POWs, and a memorial to one of the Japanese soldiers, who stayed behind to help with reconstruction. The museum near the bridge (if it's still open) is a miscellaneous collection of stuff vaguely related to Thai life in WWII. Obviously the visitor experience will be very different for people who lost loved ones here.

Which one? Kanchanaburi has several museums related to the railway: Death Railway Museum and Research Centre (aka Thailand-Burma Railway Centre) near the cemetery the JEATH War Museum Kanchanaburi at the southern end of the town by the river on Pakprak Rd. the World War II and JEATH War Museum near the bridge and POW memorial

and here... every other connection times out.

Andrew MacGregor Marshall will have something to say about that...

The clue may be in the name... maybe @Siri900 has better information? 😈

Only if you think 'car' and 'war' rhyme 😈 The Thai word would probably be naarak (น่ารัก)

I was amused by one of the YT comments: "The guy in blue seems to have a big advantage"

The usual confusion is between 100 and 500 notes, which can be a genuine accident as they look very similar under dim or red lighting. As others suggest, say the amount out loud.

There's that American exceptionalism again... What makes you think it's always about you? 😈

I once had the privilege of attending a private birthday-party performance by Mark Bunyan, who was canonised by the SPI as St Mark of the Musical Tendency.

You haven't met the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence?

Many years ago there was a fashion for huge grand pianos. The BBC was going to order one when someone said "hang on - will it fit through the doors of the hall?". The answer: "we'll make a wooden mockup and try it out". They duly made a lifesize replica piano - only to find that they coudn't get it out of the workshop.

A cynic would say the important detail is that everyone and their baggage goes through US customs & immigration and actually sets foot on US soil. That gives the government more powers to do things to anybody they consider undesirable.

I go by Katherine Whitehorn's (author of Cooking in a Bedsitter) rule: Red wine doesn't go with carpets.

True, but hardly unusual. Sterile transit within an international airport is common (outside the USA) but not between airports. How would you stop people just hoppping off the shuttle bus/taxi/train and illegally entering the country? G4S? Note that there's a considerable distance between the various "London" airports (LHR, LGW, LCY, STN, LTN, SEN). For example scheduled buses cover the 40 miles between LGW and LHR in 70-75 minutes but on a bad day on the M25 that time might be doubled.

The usual advice here (I have not tested it 😀) for prospective threesomes is that you should pick one, ask if he's willing, and if so let him choose someone he's comfortable with as the third party.

In a Baudrillardian sense?

Construction work? would that be "erection"? 😈

And a doctorate in Chapter IX - Of the Auparishtaka .

I suspect maybe @Louis has a mental picture of someone with a framed diploma on the wall, trained in all the exotic mysteries of the Orient?
