He may have moved to Chiang Mai but most likely his is in Thailand's big house

An excise is a tax on goods produced within the country. It does not apply to imported goods.

I posted several links on using vinegar in your washing. It is to be added to the pre wash or post wash cycle. It has enormous benefits and is very safe on the material. It makes your towels softer and kills the mold that is hard to get rid of with cold water washing here in Thailand.

I don't know about showering with it but my wife uses her home made stuff to spay on herself after she gets out of the shower and the vinegar smell is gone within minutes. We just went to koh samui last weekend and I forgot to take my deodorant but she had her homemade vinegar and even though the smell was very strong when you spay it on it's gone very fast and I have to admit it kept me smelling fresh. You can use a bowl of vinegar in a room to remove the smell of smoke. Vinegar in the wash is also great for removing smoke smell from clothes. You can soak a piece of bread or a towel in vinegar and throw it in the car under the seat to keep you car smelling fresh.

do some research and you will be amazed at all that vinegar is good for.

and for pH.. that is a function (p) of Hydrogen (H). The lower the number the more concentration of hydrogen and the more acidic it is. The higher the number the less acidic and 7 is neutral. Over 7 you are looking at alkaline(basic)

In chemistry you will notice most acids have H2 or some just H at the beginning where as basics have OH (hydroxide) at the end.

The Customs duty is 60% plus 7% GST. There are certain trade treaties which lowers the import duty. There are also added factors to determine what the actual cost of the beer. Have a look at the Thai customs site.

Who is Tim Ward? Have I missed something important?

Isn't he the Aussie bodybuilder who stabbed the guy on beach road a couple of months ago. There is a thread somewhere about it. I remember the nice handbag he had with him in the police photo.

He is a New Zealander.

i have read, that bacteria (from sweating) build up in the clothes, when they are only washed cold...

Totally untrue. Lived in the tropics of Australia for over 30 years and always washed clothes with cold water. Since living in Thailand wife only uses cold water. No smell

Anybody know where at Swampy to catch the shuttle from Swampy to MoChit.

I would start a new thread because this is only asking the the reverse to what you want. Another suggestion is to look at the Swamppy forum.

You should live in the north of Australia. Lime juice would not help the indigenous people smell any nicer.

The OP is actually an idiot. He should have a medal.

Of course we all came here for the sex scene. It's rumpy pumpy every night for me with all the hookers down at Nana and I'm totally digging them soapy massages.

Not even sure what the deal is in attacking English teachers?! Maybe he should learn to write better English before slating them.

I think he has tried to be an english teacher but has failed or they have realised through his written english that he is a failure

We live in thailand and this is their way of communication within the village or town or city. If you are upset with it you have to communicate this to the appropriate government area or department.

It is good to see that that your number of posts is increasing at a fast rate. Before this thread is finished you should have over 100.

Read all the postings before jumping in. Read post #51

I openned a SCB account in Phuket in 2008. The next time it was utilised was in 2010. No charges were made. I then moved to the north in 2011 and closed the account. The closed account then credited me with interest. I then asked my new SCB bank to transfer this to my new account in Phayao. They did but charged a fee. Then the closed account credited more interest. This time it was only 1.44 baht. It is still in the closed account.

I think that each branch of the SCB(in a province or as local Thais say country)operate as individually compared to the rest of Thailand. What happens in one area may not happen in another

OP says been here for 12 years, married to BG for 7 years but been together 22 years. Looks like someone's been on the sauce today.

I thought that to. He is actually quoting a response without using the quote tag.

A very good pick of Nth Melbourne. I listened to the last half of the 4th quarter. St Kilda had no answer.

I had no problems with the telecast

In Australia it is a little difficult to open a bank account for a tourist. This link gives what is needed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/100_point_check

thankyou to those that have submitted positive responses. In particular NomadJoe. My initial question came from a recently posted thread

It looks like we will have 3 live games Friday 1630 , Saturaday 1630, Sunday 1000 and 2 delayed matches Saturday 1100 and 2100. This appears to start on 15/07

The Saturday morning game is also live. So 4/5 live games a week isnt too bad. I'm a West Coast supporter and like to watch them live every week, which isn't obviously guaranteed on the Australia Network. So I subscribed to LiveAFL.TV which is now available in Thailand this year. You can watch live streams of every game and replays after about 8-10 hours of the game finishing. Its 600 Baht/month and just an extra option to get your complete footy fix. I'm guessing this may have been mentioned already earlier in the thread?

When this game is in eastern states there is actually a 30 minutes delay. We were lucky today because iit was played in SA

Suggestion to moderators.

Erase all posts with the exception of mail it in with a self addressed registered return envelope give them the information including the address. Tell them they can take it in if they wish and close the thread.

I'm sure the mods appreciate your suggestion.

Might be useful to look at the title of the thread; 90 day reporting - comments and experiences.

The thread isn't about mailing in and self addressed envelopes - that is a comment and experience, which makes up part of the thread.

I agree with your comments The openning post states

The pinned topic, 90 Day Report - Procedures, outlines the requirements.

The law says you have to carry your passport. My question is does this depend on which visa you hold?

What law is that, and what section of that law?

When people get arrested for not carrying their passport I presume that it must be illegal not to. For an arrest to be made it must contravene a law.

Just had a look at Australian network programme for 13/07/2012 and AFL is back at 1630 timeslot. A live broardcast.

Maybe our messages helped them to re-think.

We can all think it did and have a little satisfaction
