Hope I'm in the right place to ask this question. I have to renew my OA retirement visa this month. Is it possible to make an appointment? Is there a checklist of required documents?

A good friend of mine, originally from Wisconsin, moved from Chiang Mai to Ajijic about 5 years ago. He seems pretty happy there, a big factor for him was medical costs and the ability to be back in Wisconsin in just a few short hours, just in case. Happy new year!

We ended up in bed together, I just wanted her to know that it wasn't a condition.

Thanks, I was just curious if that may be a motive. I think it's possible that a woman may want to better her situation by finding a man who could give her a more comfortable life. I see nothing wrong or predatory in that, same as buying a lottery ticket really. The difference would be in the expectations of both parties. I know when I met the woman who became my wife I asked her if she wanted to go on a vacation with me. I told her that we would share a room, but not necessarilly a bed. I had never been to Bangkok, Phuket or any of the other places we saw and neither had she. We had an excellent time, been together for 16 years now, but it could have been different, the very first sign of greed or financial reward would have scared me off.

I wonder if there is, or ever was any truth to the story of some Thai women wanting a light skinned child from one of these short lived rendezvous. It was a popular story when I first arrived in Thailand.

Price isn't a big issue for me because I don't put on a lot of KMs, only 108,000 in 8 years. What I don't like to do is use a load of different fuels from diverse agents. I stick with PTT because there are so many that I can always find one. B7 is all I have ever used, with the exception of one tank of the Shell premium for comparison a few years ago. No noticeable difference to me.

If they work well enough to prevent the need for someone sticking a tube down my throat to enable breathing, that's effective enough for me.

Someone must do equipment maintenance at local gyms. I wonder if a gym in your area might steer you toward their go-to guy. Just a thought, good luck.

I ordered Moderna @ 1,650 baht each for two jabs through the MorProm app. I had the Sinovac, Astra combo at McCormick and have been waiting for Moderna to arrive at Lanna hospital. I had my first jab Dec. 14, second jab scheduled for Jan. 11. I was asked which vaccinations I wanted them to show on the card they issue. I told them it didn't matter to me, but just to be clear, if I would rather not have the Sinovac show up on the certificate, would they refrain from putting it there. I was told that was the case. My card currently reflects the 3 jabs I've already received.

I'm in Thailand, and I don't know. Come to think of it, I don't care either.

I had a Moderna jab last Wednesday, waited a few minutes, got the certificate. Said to my wife, yay! let's go home, she said let me see that, found the address to be incomplete, took it back to the desk and got it corrected. My passport number was correct and all but she probably saved me from a headache later on.

In the last two years, three people have left the gym I go to in Chiang Mai for Mexico. All say they are happy with their decision to do so. I'm happy in Thailand, but if my marriage ends for any reason, I would have a look at Mexico.

They better be well off if they choose Canada, wouldn't hurt if they were fans of cool weather either

I just got home from Immigration at Promenada. I did my 90 day report, told the officer that I tried to do it online but could not. He said "I think next year".

I use OFX to transfer money for my OA visa. Last 3 or 4 months it has been 5 days from time of transfer to delivery. I haven't bothered to ask why, but it's nice to know, thanks.

Other people who are obviously wearing the wrong amulets.

Sorry about that, we must have been typing at the same time.

I wonder if this guy has ever been to Chiang Mai in January, February or March?

I was thinking along the same lines. When I arrived here in 2005 I was interested in learning the language. I never became proficient really, the tones were hard to master and I spent more time with fellow expats. I find I have regressed, I rarely speak Thai now. My Thai wife lived in Singapore for six years so we speak english in our home.

I like the old slogan better; "The whole world is cumming in Pattaya"

And the next 11 countries behind China, including Russia

So you're sitting at home in Illinois watching the news. You grab your weapon and head for Wisconsin. Obviously you believe that you are Davy Crockett heading for the Alamo. Arriving in Wisconsin, you hit the streets, claiming along the way that "it's my job". After killing one and wounding two, you claim self defense, just like you were still in Illinois minding your own business. Clearly acquittal will lead to people travelling to places like Charlotte for participation in riots. I hope this young man faces a severe penalty.

I'm not a doctor or a scientist, don't know or care about Sinovac or Sinopharm. What I do care about is being allowed to travel to Canada sometime in the future. My home country does not recognize those vaccines, I can have a mix, but those two didn't make the team. Send them to the bench and insert the good stuff.
