    I know the article quoted him at the end. But the only way I could avoid that would be to post the article, cutting out the last bit. btw I see Tegnell held a news conference yesterday clarifying some of the points in the interview.

    There are concerns that there might be a second wave in Iran after lockdown was eased in April https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/jun/01/iran-rapid-rise-in-covid-19-cases-stokes-fears-of-second-wave
  5. Yes Emmy that is good. But I think that tourists from abroad will not be coming back to Thailand for a while yet. I hope you get enough customers to survive. I wish you good luck!

    Sobriety

    I've been drinking less too. I was missing a drink when I had run out at home, but I think that was because it was unavailable. I did stock up when I was finally able to get an online supermarket order delivery last week, but have only had an occasional cold can of Stella or glass of cold white wine in the evening. I'm glad not to have any hangovers. It's great to wake up at 5am in these lighter mornings feeling ready to go - even if I can't go anywhere!. But come the darker evenings in Autumn and Winter I expect my consumption will increase again.
  7. WOW! That is great news Emmy! I hope to be able to come back in January/February. Maybe earlier if situation allows.

    Sorry Seven but I only look at world figures occasionally. But congratulations to Sweden! Let's hope we are all on the downwards slope now, and that there won't be a second wave.
  9. Well on her fb page today Sunny says she will come back to patts, but who knows. Anyway I wish her well and hope things go well for her whatever she does.
  10. From her fb page it seems she wants to go on a beautician course!
  11. It's ok. A friend has taken most ofSunny's bags to Bangkok. Only one left to take in taxi.
  12. But that does not have the moving personal stories like this one. bbg should go to buy some Durian fruits from Aunty Urai! http://www.pattayamail.com/latestnews/news/pattaya-fruit-vendors-struggling-to-make-ends-meet-during-covid-19-pandemic-301853
  13. ((((Mind)))) Let's hope the Thai/Laos border is reopened soon.
  14. You could be right. Like when lbs say they will be getting a job in a specific lb bar. It might be that they would like to get a job there, not that they have actually been offered a job there. But I think that is more a language thing than a Thai trait. But like you I hope things work out for Sunny. At least she has family and friends in Bangkok. This means that Mind will be more isolated though.
  15. A certain paper which cannot be named, so as not to offend bbg, says beaches will open on 1 June. https://www.pattayamail.com/featured/pattaya-beaches-and-recreational-areas-reopening-on-june-1-302011
  16. I think it's probably the language barrier and misunderstanding. But I talked to Sunny online for a while and I'm sure that my understanding is correct.

    Woodie, why were you in KFC with Dao?!!
  18. Sunny says she doesn't know if she will get job at Big C when she returns to Bangkok. She will have to find out if there are vacancies and make an application if there are. Might not be possible as I'd guess getting any job will be difficult as there will be lots of people laid off from tourism and associated employment looking for work. I hope she is able to find work. Keep your fingers crossed for her guys!
  19. Or maybe a lorry! Sunny hasn't finished packing, still at it now! And she has yet to start on her cosmetics and make up!
