  1. Right on. I want one or more on my balcony with a nice loud clapping sound as a Feng Shui 'well done' gift for a nice neighbour.
  2. Anybody know where I can buy bamboo or wooden wind chimes in Pattaya or Bangkok like the one in the photo. I don't want to buy online. Thx
  3. Just hope they checked if the concrete they use is toxic to coral or not.
  4. The best case scenario for the effect of the Ukraine war is that Russian tourists won't be able to afford to come to Thailand. Hip...hip.......
  5. Exactly. In the UK credit card companies will reimburse if u receive a fake product but in Thailand they are not interested unless you received no product.
  6. Particularly on motorcycles which get involved much more in accidents than cars do.
  7. Yes if your package hotel picks you up at the airport.
  8. Exactly what I found in Pattaya last May. Not interested in FET, only tax paid and copy of sale receipt from land office and also copy of the deeds showing the new owner and old owner (myself) which I got from the buyer. The bank probably assumes the land office proves foreign funds transfer when you bought so no need to prove again. Careful with this coz if the new owner has a mortgage then the bank keeps his deeds. Fortunately the new owner took a photograph of the deeds after purchase and sent me a copy. Btw, my BKK bank in Pattaya told me you can transfer up to 1 million baht to a foreign account without need for formal bank approval, which I was not aware of, so just make several transfers of up to 1 million but I don't know the time limits on that
  9. Hope so. I would love to live in Siam. I am currently stuck in Thailand.
  10. Great thx. I thought an online video might be involved.
  11. I guess this question has come up many times but I can't find any posts and the regs do change over time: What documents do I need to convert a 2 year to a 5 year motorbike licence? Do I need to view a safety video and can this be done online and the results taken to the office? What other tests are involved? Thanks in advance.
  12. "Phiphat said he would contact Ms Hummels to apologize in person" ......which means a nice jolly all the way to Germany in a nice hotel with shopping for his wife, autographs of Mr Hummel's for his kids and a group photo for the Thai media because Mrs Hummel's surely will never visit Thailand again.
  13. Nothing mentioned about that. The hospital will probably do nothing and hope it all goes away.
  14. Fallen down pavement holes yet, or electrocuted from hanging live electricity cables, bitten or frightened by soi dogs, got skin cancer, food poisoning, hit by pavement motorcyclists etc, etc. No? Hang around in Thailand long enough.....
  15. There's nothing like a new development that blends in with surrounding historical infrastructure. Instead of the glass they could have used the same walling as the palace.
  16. I think the tax only applies when you cash in the cryptos through a bank. If u don't cash it in you won't be taxed, just like most investments, where the profits are only taxed when you cash them in.
  17. There is no need to claim abuse, just ask if it is abuse or not. Do you know if very old horses look starved is my question.
