There are outdoors shops such as Columbia, North Face and Montbell in both CentralWorld and Siam Paragon. They sell winter clothes such as quilted puffy jackets, fleeces, beanie hats and gloves etc. But not cheap. You can also find winter clothing on Aliexpress and Lazada. Cannot guarantee quality of Chinese stuff, but Naturehike is not too bad. Example: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005016191930.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.13.2928TOhSTOhS5L&algo_pvid=4e907611-6380-4b8a-9c4c-277661df2969&algo_exp_id=4e907611-6380-4b8a-9c4c-277661df2969-6&pdp_ext_f={"sku_id"%3A"12000031351476649"}&pdp_npi=2%40dis!THB!1513.3!1513.3!!!!!%40211bf12316743538934452983d06f4!12000031351476649!sea&curPageLogUid=y7nEaH3Y573y https://www.lazada.co.th/products/30-degree-winter-down-jacket-men-90-white-duck-down-parkas-coat-mid-length-large-fur-collar-male-thicken-coat-snow-overcoat-xuechur-i3098937395-s11441003442.html?

I can go one better. I have a runny nose on one side only. The other always seems partially blocked. Years ago, I saw a doctor and she diagnosed Chronic Rhinitis and gave me a nasal spray that didn't do anything.

UPDATE: Firstly, I would like to thank everyone for their help and advice. It really made things a lot easier. My friend got the residence certificate(s) and has now managed to open bank accounts. Fixed Term for the retirement money, and a savings account for day to day. Next job is to extend his visa exempt which expires beginning Feb, then apply to convert to Non Imm O based on retirement. A quick question. How early can he apply to extend his current visa exempt entry?

I was prescribed an anti fungal called Lamisil. Comes in cream or tablets. Worked for me. -

If they're anything lie those bl**dy things in Tops, they are a nuisance. Had to swerve them several times to avoid running over my toes.. ???? -
Whats the best 1 year package unlimited (AIS/ Dtac/True)
phetphet replied to kwak250's topic in Mobile Devices and Apps
Really? What package is that? Do you have a link? Or more info. please? -
When you do your retirement extension application form TM.7., ask them for TM. 8 and do the application for a Multiple Re-entry Permit at the same time THB 3800. You can apply for a Single Re-entry Permit, which is THB 1900 I believe, but as the name suggests, only allows a single re-entry.

Forgot 90 Day Report - what to expect.
phetphet replied to phetphet's topic in Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, Koh Tao
I handed her an envelop on which I had written: Visa extension: THB1900 Multi Entry Permit: THB 3800 THB 5700. I was told "One more." So I gave her another 100. I just hope she wasn't asking for 1000. ???? Never a smile for me. The saying, "Face like a Bulldog chewing a wasp" comes to mind. As for organised. It would help if they stopped changing the forms and requirements every year. I used to keep TM7 and TM8 .pdf's in my computer to fill and print. Now have to visit immigration to pick up latest forms and check what else they want that is particular to that specific office since the previous year. -
Beware, Thai police checkpoint on-the-spot fines jumped to 1000 baht

Lots of Russians here at the moment. Probably a lot of them had to leave home in a hurry, with no chance to plan such things as IDP's or maybe even driving licences. Easy targets. -
Forgot 90 Day Report - what to expect.
phetphet replied to phetphet's topic in Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, Koh Tao
Are you sure about that? When I once went in about ten days early, they told me, " Too early come back next week." I went in today, 18th ( my extension expires tomorrow, and was told to come back and collect my passport on 26th. Though this time, they sent me away to put all the documents in the order they are mentioned on the requirements sheet. Again got charged that mysterious 100 baht extra. 5800 for extension and multi re-entry permit. They never tell me what it is for. Maybe they do some extra copying. Still. As long as it all goes smoothly. -
How to get rid of normal mole that is itchy and facial moles

But how do you know if it is benign or malignant? Or if you managed to get all of it? -
Yes proof of funds letter from bank
phetphet replied to jwest10's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I put in my visa renewal application today here in Samui. Letter and 12 month statement. Copies of passbook name page, and last page showing latest deposit(s). I still had to leave immigration and return to bank because I had to make a deposit on same day, as passbook needs to be updated same day as visa application. I did try to make the deposit (THB100) the day before, but the deposit machine said magnetic strip error on passbook. -

I recently bought two sim cards from Lazada for 1590 each. 15mbps 100GB/month. Valid for one year. One for my iPad and one for a friend for his phone. Went to AIS shop to activate. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/i2567097947-s15687298967.html?urlFlag=true&mp=1&tradePath=omItm&spm=spm%3Da2o4m.order_details.item_title.1 -
Got a lot on my plate at the moment with one thing and another. Also been getting my paperwork ready to renew my retirement extension tomorrow. It expires on Friday 19th. Went to get photos done this afternoon and photocopies of passport. Looking in passport I realised I should have done my 90 day report on Saturday 14th. I even went to immigration this morning to pick up the necessary forms. Bank tomorrow morning for statement, then off to immigration to renew retirement extension. A bit worried what to expect. Just a fine? Or am I likely to face bigger problems? TIA

If you must vape, and realise there are risks, then try to minimise those risks. For example, don't let anyone deliver to your hotel. They will then know where you are staying.

Go see a dermatologist. Especially if it is itchy. Dr Niyom Tantikun at Bumrungrad is good. -
Russian Man Wreaks Havoc at 7-11 in Pattaya’s Walking Street
phetphet replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Non co-operative with the police. Not the best way to get out of his predicament. Perhaps he is on overstay and doesn't want them to find out. A bit of a non starter though. -
