I've lived in Thailand about 16 years, most of them in Pattaya. I've engaged in countless conversations with random people, of all ethnicities... and not once, ever did a stranger ask me to borrow money.
Maybe it's just me?

I'd like a good 'Build your own' burrito place like they have in the lower west states in America.
They usually serve other dishes, and you can sit inside, but service is walk through and fast.
In Pattaya I love Taco House, Taco Taco and Mike's Mexican. But they are more dine in, family style restaurants.For example
When I went to college this place was the best,

And one awesome one I found in Berlin:

A guy who lives up the road from me put six bullets in his wife's head while she was sleeping. I was visiting their neighbors at the time and lots of cops and an ambulance showed up and took the body out. Two brand new Mercedes with high ranking cops (based on their uniforms) and draped in gold showed up and talked to the guy outside. The next day he was "on the run" and about 6 weeks later he was back home living in his building as if nothing happened. Prior to the incident he was very friendly and a great neighbor. The story never made it in the news.
Also, did all those people in the photo have proof of double vaccines? I can't have a beer in a restaurant and have to be home by 9pm but angry Thai's are free to gather like this?? (Rhetorical question)- 21

I read the OP but didn't bother reading all the replies so I apologize if this has been said or already recommended.
Can you get close to the family? Try contacting the Aunt again as she has already helped you. The disabled Father and drunk Mother, how is your relationship with them? And the brothers? Who's "Side" would they be on? Possibly if you can rally the family to be on your side, in the best interest of the child, the wife will be easier to deal with.

What about the rich hotel owners found dead by the pool by their son and all CCTV cameras were out of order? (Krabi I think?)
And the guy in Pattaya who shagged his GF off the balcony of the condo and went on the run?- 7

Seems they didn't notice that Thailand is near the top of the list of places NOT to travel to around the world.

If your trip outside was so miserable, next time just stay home.

Hi,
Yes I bought the exact one in your second photo there with the sliced oranges.
I've had it for about a year and probably used it 20 times or so with different fruits and veggies. I can't believe how well it works for the price I paid, and I've never had a problem with it. I just wanted to experiment with it, thinking it was junk but if it worked for me I could buy a more expensive one later. As said, I don't use it everyday but for what I need it is a great purchase. My only complaint about it, is that it makes a big mess and is difficult to clean.- 1

I used to have similar issues. I now run a 5kva voltage stabilizer and all my stuff gets good, constant clean power.
Mine is made by CBC and I bought it from Lazada for under 8,000 THB. It's been going strong for 3 or 4 years now. -
North of Pattaya, Highway 36 near the Regent's school. As you drive toward toward town (away from motorway) and you start going up the hill, there is a place on the left that sells the salt you're looking for. It may be Thai Refined Salt as mentioned above.
Interesting side note, Na Klua means "Salt farm"

The saddest, most depressing "zoo" I've ever visited. Will never go back.

Maybe get a bunch of guys in uniform to point at the erosion in a photo would help?

To answer the OP's question, Yes you can. There should be no fees and no you don't need an account.
The way to ask in Thai is, "Lack Tang Die Mi?" (To break larger bills into smaller bills)

#2 Bosch

why is this still legal and why the dog lovers don't try to save cocks too ?
Do you actually think making it "illegal" would stop anyone in Thailand from doing it?

My slow cooker is the only way I will cook beef brisket or beef shanks and they turn out so amazing. I'll get a pan with oil super hot and brown both sides of the meat and then put it in with either soup stock or water, add a can of beer or some red wine and veg or potatoes. Sometimes I use the meat in burritos or on sandwiches.
It also works great at parties, you can leave a cheese dip or chili or something in it and it will stay warm.
I never ever use it on high, only on low setting.
Thank you to those who suggested an air fryer. I've never used one and now I'm going to give it a try.

Two people have already mentioned the thermal compound inside the laptop. I agree it makes a huge difference.
I have had two laptops with overheating problems recently. The guy I took it to said he had to check where the heat was coming from, the CPU or the hard drive. In one laptop I installed a much newer hard drive and the thing hardly gets warm now. The other we just had the computer guy go through it and put new thermal compound and clean very well.

I only have 2 amusing stories to share, I haven't golfed in years.
1), When I first came here I went golfing with a business owner sleaze bag and he told me if my caddy tickles the inside of my palm while handing me my club or ball it means she wants to go have a <deleted> in the bushes. I laughed it off and then during the 18 holes this guy was all over the 4 caddies like he was in a gogo bar. He was the one with tickle hands. The girls mostly laughed it off too but he was 100% focused on trying to get any one of them to go for a romp in the weeds. I wonder how often they have to put up with this. I later shared this story with my wife and we both still give a tickle on the other's palm if we're feeling frisky, usually more as a joke, in funny situations.
2), I was with a group and all three of them were off in the weeds looking for a ball behind the green. I was on the green with all 4 caddies who had putters ready. One caddie dropped the ball and one hand putted it at least 10 meters into the cup. A second caddie dropped a ball and also one hand putted a very long putt right into the cup. I looked at them like, <deleted>? and they simply said, "We're here everyday".
Best,

I don't think you're wasting your time in Pattaya. I think most TV members just talk bad about Pattaya any chance they get.
I also don't think Global house or Thaiwatsadu are going to build anything for you.
Here are some suggestions for you,
Euro Design Furniture: https://www.euro-design-furniture.com/en/ (probably on the higher end)
Shadow Maker: https://www.shadowmakerasia.com/ (I know they specialize in another product, but they are very skilled, smart and do other projects)Sakkarin Furniture: 090-962-6706
Alpha Design and Construction: http://alphathai.com/
Lots of other good, smart, quality people and businesses in Pattaya. Just have to get off the bar stool once in a while to find them.
Let us know how it goes.
