I don't think Thailand is for you OP. Best stay away.

Why because she has hurt the feelings of a few lilley whites on here ? One of which doesnt even live in Thailand

Funny how TV members can slag off the Thai's but some one starts calling the high and mighty farangs they start getting all upset LOL pathetic

No…. because I don't want the OP to suffer fury induced cardiac arrest when she gets here. Sleaze and all those unsavoury things she mentioned are, unfortunately, all over Thailand. Anyway, that doesn't matter now since her original inflammatory post has been edited. So welcome to Thailand gap year girl from Singapore. Hope you have a great time.

I don't think Thailand is for you OP. Best stay away.

Had 4 new tyres fitted today. Excellent service and very keen price. Highly recommended.

Try this Thai online store.

Another option would be to watch Interstellar at Maya, SF Cinema and safe the costs for the songtaew...

That's what I did on Sunday. I paid 100 B to see it at the Maya. The movie was a big yawn for me. Seeing it in Imax wouldn't have made it any better. I should have listened to the The Wall Street Journal, they rated it 40% on Metacritic..."The last thing I expected was a space adventure burdened by turgid discussions of abstruse physics, a wavering tone, visual effects of variable quality..."

Yeah it really has some snotty reviews. As much as I like Mathew M. ( and he is suppose to be excellent in this roll) , the rest of the flick sounds like a canidate for a rotten tomatoe!

The first 1.5 hours were very enjoyable.

How shops and restaurants leave all their outside tables, chairs and pot plants on the sidewalk overnight and it's all still there in the morning.

How quick nature can invade your living space. One week away and there are squirrels in the ceiling, birds nesting in the verandah ceiling fans, scorpions under the washing machine; plus you need a machete to hack a path through the grass to get to the front door.

Also, as other posters have mentioned, how important appearances are.

Nope - sorry to say. Can't get them here. I searched high and low a few years ago. That's why I brought one with me on my last trip to Aus.

Broom sellers here sell brightly coloured plastic brooms with a telescopic type handle that can reach high ceilings. The broom head has a single row of bristles only and the bristles are not quite as soft as the ones on the cobweb broom. That's the closest you are going to get I think.

Dii (or "Dee") Laai Thai Massage

dii = good

laai = many

Saying it quickly almost sounds like Delight Thai Massage

Good luck!

A question to the OP - do you nod/smile/speak to all foreigners: those of different race to farang? I mean Africans/Japanese/Burmese/Mongolian/Eskimo/Aboriginal or whatever. Do you nod and smile at Thais the same as farang? Do you feel the same disdain if any of them ignore you, if so why?

Also keen to hear the answer to this one.

I agree with the OP. The ones I have bought have a slight sweet taste to them and the flesh is almost yellow in colour.

My guess is they are the "Yukon Gold" variety.

LOL @ ".. us true Chiang Mai expatriots"

If you get the ticket stamped by the Curve business you patronise there is no charge for the parking.

Thai people are just way too polite to show their aversion. A quick loud warning toot from your horn does wonders. I don't mean we have to turn the place into Ho Chi Minh City but when they cause an obstruction let them know, otherwise they remain clueless.

Nice to see you have finally come out of your coma. Is the brain fully functioning now?

Seems a bit of education is required - probably a bit late for the OP though...

As you enter the Airport Plaza shopping mall through the multi-storey car park (think it is level 3. or could be 2A) there is a small dry cleaning business. I've taken stuff there a few times. I find it very convenient and they do a good job. There is also one at Meechok Plaza if that suits you better.

It's a bit of free entertainment while waiting for the lights to change. Everybody got a huge kick out of watching an officer chase down 3 teens on a bike yesterday morning at that intersection. None were wearing helmets and no way were they going to stop!

To the OP: Thanks for sharing your experience. We need sensible people like yourself posting here to keep things real. Don't let stupid replies get you down.

I would try that little shop "Chiang Mai Stamp" on Ratchadamnoen Road in the old city. http://www.chiangmailocator.com/chiang-mai-shops-4507:chiang-mai-stamp

They should be able to give you some ideas.

A spot of tubing perhaps?

After arriving in Phuket in October, Ms Sgibneva left to get a three-month tourist visa in November. She then completed a visa run in February. Subsequently, she left the country on March 21 for a visa run, then again to visit friends in Kuala Lumpur on March 30 and April 18.

Despite the article using the term "visa run," what it looks like she did was make/attempt four or five pretty much back-to-back visa-exempt entries in a 6-7 month period of time - separated by only one actual tourist visa.

That does seem to be the kind of behavior that the new crackdown on consecutive visa exempt entries is aimed at.

The article says she didn't want to go back to her home country, Russia. So what exactly has she been doing in Thailand for all these months???

Suntanning

Yes felt it too. Dogs went crazy and the whole house was shaking.

Try "The Pub" bar on HK Road. I seem to recall a bridge club meeting there once a week. This was more than a year ago though so can't be sure if it still happening.

If you don't get satisfaction call Mitsubishi's Technical advice, the number is on the website and they will send an engineer from Bangkok to deal with the problem. I did this 31/2 years ago for a Differential Replacement as my Diff was noisy at 110 kph. He came to Mukdahan with 3 new diffs and after 2 replacements the problem was solved. Excellent service.

Thanks for that!!

Had the steering looked at today by Mitsubishi in Hang Dong. Fixed now. Good service.

Cheers

Can anyone recommend a Mitsubishi dealership in Chiang Mai that can carry out good quality servicing and a warranty repair?

Have a 2012 PS which has developed a strange grinding and clicking sound in the steering wheel area (extremely annoying) when the wheel is turned rapidly.

Preferably a dealership located around Hang Dong area (but am willing to travel elsewhere) where service advisor is English speaking.

Many thanks
