  1. The Canadian Embassy proved themselves as useless as usual. I went in at the appointed time and had to wait an hour because they couldn't find the consul. When they did, she said it was not the Embassy's business to notarise Canadian powers-of-attorney! Last week, I went to the US Embassy to renew my passport. I had a similar Power of Attorney to be notarised. $75 and five minutes! At the appointed time... This is why I need a Canadian lawyer, practicing or not, in Bangkok, as expat or tourist. Anybody know one? Christopher G. Moore??
  2. How long until you remember it???
  3. Who's your doc, please. Can't find anybody offering COVID jabs, free or not. TIA!
  4. Might you share that contact, please?
  5. Neighbour's cat s**its in our garden. They already lock their three-legged dog in a cage & never let him beyond the gate. We don't complain because we're afraid they'll cage the cat, too. I walk along a klong pathway. Woman has six cats in cages, sad.
  6. Finally! Those of us who don't carry mobile phones (particularly to the US) & don't do QR codes can resort to paper TM.6.
  7. I'm waiting for the King, maybe UK, maybe blackface...
  8. And mobsters ike Trump & Musk! Brilliant! DOGE saves more spending...
  9. Worked for us at Bangkok Bank. Good luck!
  10. The 800,000 needs to be in your name only. But you can add your wife to the fixed bank deposit without her name showing in the passbook or the letter.
  11. Still a little nerve-wracking, eh. There seems to be nowhere else solid to invest save USD.
  12. I thought Musk cancelled BEA...
  13. I hope this comment is sarcasm! Would you not want access to a lawyer?
  14. I never had chickenpox as a kid. Can I still get shingles??? Asking for good reason. Mum was prescribed opiates but not told about their constipastion side effects. You don't want a colostomy!
  15. Wow, you reach a real person? Miss those old days! I'll try it...
  16. Any suggestions for such, please?
  17. Betong hotsprings are awesome! Don't eat steak...or donuts!
  18. Skype has been my go-to. Mobile phones do not accept reverse charge calls when calling banks & companies. What service, at minimal charge or free, can one use??? TIA!
  19. Got it, Jack. That must be why they insisted I go home for the previous bankbook. This was my 2024 extension so it must have been in place awhile.
  20. I have not seen such a form, Jack. When I get my bank letter, I ask the bank to make me a photocopy of my bankbook. Of course, as usual, Immig requires original bankbook, too.
