  1. Can she read your posts posted here too?😂
  2. Then Thailand has it better in control by now, can remember the posters hanging everywhere, about HIV, the first time I came to Thailand 1993.
  3. Cannabis use, ....and there are so many who insist it is really harmless.
  4. That is the infamous 2 price system and is applied to a bit of everything. But yes, being a farang, you just don't get used to it.
  5. So you used that office. Next week, I also want to use their services on renewing my retirement extension. But have serious doubts regarding sending my passports (old and new) plus the bank book, you will lose it, then you have a big problem, or do they have their own courier service? How are your experiences with this?
  6. Thanks for the answer, yes I have a multiple-entry.
  7. A question regarding the new ‘TDAC’ form which has to be filled in before entry. I am currently in the Netherlands to obtain a new passport. I am leaving for Thailand again at the end of the week but have doubts about which passport number I should fill in on the form, as my retirement-extension is in the old passport. For this reason, I am afraid that if I fill in the new passport number, the retirement extension will not be seen and I will therefore be marked as a tourist. Does anyone have experience with this?
  8. It is common knowledge that Toyota has long been known as the car with the fewest breakdowns, surely that says something about Toyota. Personally, I regret buying an Isuzu instead of a Toyota.
  9. I also have that on my Isuzu MU-X, but have disabled all that for more or less the same reason. Disabling cannot be done programmatically so I painted the sensors behind the windscreen all black. Now I do get regular notifications to clean my windscreen but it doesn't bother me.
  10. The advantage of gold is, it is soft and you can easily cut a piece off, so in time of need it is always useful....well buy a hacksaw.
  11. Year after year after year, you get to see the same discussions about this, but I'm glad I listened to myself over the past 25 years and have now made quite a nice investment in that metal.
  12. Yes indeed, those places are there precisely for the farangs, understand that, it indicates the country's hospitality.
  13. To understand something, you have to use your brain, and that is something that is sometimes lacking among the people who create laws and the people who enforce them.
  14. Maybe I misread but their website mentions a minimum amount of 5 baht, not 1,000 Thb. Minimum purchase.
  15. Silver is a worthless investment, if you look at its value in recent months you will see that there have been minimal changes, unlike gold, but to invest in it now with its high prices does not seem wise to me either.
  16. Yes, keep insisting that those masks offer protection, but it has been proven that those virus particles are not being, I repeat NOT being stopped by those simple masks worn by the Thais. Maybe soot particles, but that's about it.
  17. You are not the only one, Thai airways left me and my son standing on a return flight back from Hong Kong to Bangkok, of course the Thai was allowed to go back. And to this day I haven't got my money back. How do you mean racist. (x) Sarcasm off.
  18. Unbelievable anyway, they start scaring again regarding a virus that has caused a fraction more deaths worldwide than a commonly known flu virus. They must be hitting the Thai with this, when I see that they are still walking around with large amounts of masks. And then some farangs who can't put it in perspective either.
  19. Of course not, he has a property there, then you won't spend so much money on such a luxury hotel.
  20. These are not known to the tourist, nor to me when I go on holiday for a few days in an area other than where I live. Or should I take my liquor supply with me on holiday in future.
  21. For a long time not visiting national parks due to double fares.
