  1. Fourteen years ago I used a joint account to show the 800K to Immigration, but I had to have at least 1.6 million baht for it to be accepted. Now I have a separate term deposit in my name only that has 800K and never touched. My worry is that 800K may be difficult for my Thai partner to lay her hands on upon my demise, so thinking of going back to the joint account method if it's still available. Anyone go that route?
  2. You have no idea what you would do until you actually live to 90. All depends on state of health and motivation.

    Isaan Funerals

    Respect would have been to get the dog vaccinated.
  4. The whole balcony was only held on by a few masonry anchors that only penetrated a few inches into the main building.
  5. New, and last, season 12, episode 1 of Curb Your Enthusiasm available most places.
  6. I call those kind of movies "chewing gum for the eyes". Instantly forgettable.
  7. One of my favourite movies of all time, so dark.
  8. If it's a joint account it shouldn't present a problem.
  9. And how would the bank find out about it?
  10. That was a lawn edger/weed whacker. Works great, but no good for hedge.
  11. Thinking of changing from my corded model but wondering how powerful the battery models are. Lazada has many different brands, most I've never heard of, and it's hard to get any indication of power, some quote watts, others voltage.
  12. The first was OK, then they just got sillier with ridiculous body counts.
  13. I usually enjoy Statham movies like Wrath of Man, but Beekeeper was just too over the top and into John Wick territory, bordering on cartoonish.
  14. Didn't seem much in the way of repercussions for all the coppers misconduct. Slaps on the wrist.
  15. We have screens on all windows and doors but the mozzies still get in somewhere. Hence both my partner and I both got Dengue.
  16. If using ultraviolet light, useless.
  17. We bought a new house in Pattaya that has wallpaper in every room, some of which is starting to look a bit tatty. I started to remove some in the bedroom, what a nightmare! I don't know what glue was used, but to remove it from every room would be a massive and messy job that could take weeks. My advice is to paint.
  18. According to a Google search the plug ins are useless.
  19. Both my partner and I both had it within a week of each other. Not pleasant and takes some weeks to shake.
  20. Wasn't there anyone else around to distract the bear? Seems pretty radical, not to mention gutsy, to cut off your arm because the bear wouldn't let go.
  21. New TV series, Finders Keepers is pretty good. Episodes 1 and 2 on PB.
  22. Could not get into it. Was it supposed to be a comedy? Gave it away when the prison guards were removing an unplugged TV still showing a picture, and the brother signwriting messages.
