It is a seasonal fruit. I got it from Chiang Rai last time.

Before when I renewed my extension based on retirement, I owned a condo and just showed a copy of the deed. Recently I have sold my condo and am now living in a condo owned by my Thai partner and do not pay rent. What will be acceptable as proof of address?

I have heard that there is a huge warehouse on soi 89(?) in East Pattaya over the rail tracks that sells herbs and natural products. Anyone have any info on this?

Quandow, did you need a photo or did they take it at the desk?

You did a report of staying longer than 90 days in the country. It is not a renewal or an extension.

It does not surprise me that they would not do the change of address at Suksawat.

Do they do change of address at Jomtien?

At Jomtien it is not possible to do it the same day because when you go for the extension you have to return the following day to pick up your passport, at which point you can get the re-entry permit.

The older Cambodian beggar with one leg who goes around Jomtien Complex owns a Mercedes car.

Here's a question. I have sold my condo and bought another next to my Thai partner's condo. It cannot be in my name and so in his name. There is no rental contract. What will Immigration accept as proof of my residence?

A income letter will be accepted that is up to 6 months old.

Yes I know that is the official version. However last month at Jomtien they told my friend the income letter could not be more than 1 month old. I was hoping someone had been recently and could confirm this.

Does anyone know the current rule at Jomtien for the age of proof of income letter from the Embassy?

If his name begins with an I, then its the same person.

I have a friend who owns a penthouse condo in Golden Sands. Its for sale but not cheap, around 60 million baht I believe.

They looked at my documents first. Maybe some kind person could ask the Captain for clarification.

Today at Jomtien immigration, was told can renew retirement extension not more than 1 month early and income letter not more than 1 month old.

Does Bangkok Immigration keep your passport for the 15 days? Its not too difficult to get there, just look on the web.

Problem solved. Ibeat on ground floor of Tukcom will install Snow Leopard for 990 baht.

That is the Apple store in the US. I am looking to buy here.

I am running os x 10.5.8, so I know now I need to install Snow Leopard. Anyone know where or if its available in Pattaya? My Mac is Intel and Snow Leopard can be installed. Then I could go on to Yosemite.

Thanks but you need os x Snow Leopard to do that.

I have os x 10.5.8 and I want to buy and install the latest yosemite os. I don't want to upgrade, just install a fresh brand new os so the hard drive could be wiped clean. Anyone know where in Pattaya I could have this done. Istudio in Central Festival a good option?

JT, what do you mean by "no way".

Anybody know if these products are available here in Pattaya?

Since I have a slow connection, can you download the movies,tv shows etc. to your PC's hard drive?

I would set the box up following the tutorial i posted in post 27.

Reason is that there are many ways to set these box's up and this

could mean setting it up without getting the best results.

The video in post 27 is the latest version of Kodi and with adding the repositories

explained in the vid will give you the best results.

Thanks sotsira for your posts

I think that you are referring to the setting up of a stand alone XBMC software on a PC?

At this time I am trying to set up the Minix neo X8-H on my 50' TV

The version of XBMC I think is different on the preloaded XBMC in the Minix.

I am having a rest at the moment, becoming a little frustrated at my own inadequacy in following what for a younger and more perceptive mind would be childs play!

I will be having another go later this morning when I have looked at the videos in your post and others that the same maker has there on his site

Can I say though once again a big" thank you" for your help, the videos are great and next I am going to get the big screen TV and my laptop together so that I can do a complete install step by step on the Minix attached to the big screen TV and at the same time being able to pause the instructional video on the laptop whilst I input the last command from Mr spoon

I am hoping that the force is with me!

interesting stuff. will be getting a box in few months time when UKTV contract is up.

setting it up with TV or laptop I should have thought would follow the same,just tv controls to find the box,but then you could use your laptop and split the screen..

they are good though,friend did show me his and can well imagine it is a bit daunting to set up as his was pre programmed,but I guess it all comes together eventually.

just wonder if there is any great difference between all the boxes. all the best

Success on both counts.

I cheated with the Minix and had a chap locally who sells fully loaded boxes in the area to do me a full install of the software for the Minix neo 8X - H for 500Baht

He was new to the latest Minix but said that it was the best Android box that he had seen especially in the speed of the downloads.

So tonight the the big boss wanted to watch all the Thai soaps and so I went into the kitchen and followed the video from Sotsira (Thanks once again sotsira) on my Ipad whilst installing XMBC on my laptop

To my delight and complete amazement it was a success, so now I have two devices which I can stream from.

I must say that although I admit to failing sight, lack of enthusiasm and the beginning of Old timers disease these Android boxes are not for the faint hearted.

I think that all will be OK once I have got my head around where to actually find my TV channels from the differing Apps and sources available.

In other words I think that if you stick at it and make the effort any normal person even like me with a minimum of IT experience can operate and understand theses great devices.

Tonight I managed to watch a little of Gold rush from the Discovery channel, Fox news, Mrs Brown boys and countless other programs that I just picked at random and I think most were in HD
