  1. Yes, I do use the drive up.... It's very convenient....They also take walk ups at the same (side) window....It had a line with 8 or more people waiting..... My drive in is relatively easy.... If I lived in Pai or MHS it wouldn't be much fun....
  2. I was at a stoplight & the car started bouncing....No strong wind, no car bumped me, engine seemed ok.... Turned out to be the quake - still some shimmies when driving for a couple of kilometers.... Then had to wait with many others for Makro to give the all clear to enter.... My wife was home & it was her first quake....It frightened her....
  3. Yes, I did that & it still wouldn't approve.....I rechecked my info = ok.... Subsequent tries also failed....CM immigration is usually a packed zoo, so I hesitate trying to get any personalized assistance.....I live closer to Lamphun, which is smaller & easier..... Unfortunately, I'm locked into the CM office.....
  4. It worked just fine - until I traveled out of country = hasn't worked since....
  5. I got my extension on Wednesday.....After driving out I noticed that I hadn't noticed my 90 day was due 3 days later....It cost me another 50k round trip from home.... If I had glanced first I could have grabbed a TM & used the drive up in less than an hour.....The walk up was about 12 people deep..... Immigration was swamped..... Just another day.....
  6. I've had good performance from Yokohama & Maxxes.... Bridgestone harden quickly - which isn't good....I got rid of them - 3 cars....
  7. ProAuto on Hang Dong Rd..... Tonn speaks perfect English.... About 700 meters south of Makro on the northbound side of the street....
  8. I have one here & one in the US.....Thinking back, that's just about all I've driven since the 80's/90's.... I've had other complimentary vehicles - trucks, sports cars, sedans - my primary vehicles have been SUV's......
  9. Dated & Lived with Filipinas for years in US & PI.... Didn't like the Philippines... "Discovered" & upgraded to Thai's and Thailand - happy ever since.... I do regret separating from one Filipina - that was my mistake - great lady....
  10. Possibly, if they approached me.... I've met a few "famous" people over the years - never felt compelled to to act star struck...Just treated them as regular folks.... The only near miss opportunity I regret was a chance to visit a half day with Elvis through a mutual friend.... I was married to a runway model that was fairly well known & that notoriety was a pain in the ass....
  11. Nothing related to the UN and it's "representatives" legalities & illegalities are particularly surprising..... It's all about networks of graft, greed, & power accumulation....
  12. Delete - I was replying to a messenger message = not sure how it popped up here...
  13. From the outside the CM store size is underwhelming..... Having only been in the fullsized stores this building is 10% or less than their regular store - probably closer to 5%....
  14. How can you be in so many different places & life situations so quickly.....
