  1. I cant understand these bald fools buying these products. On Lazada you can get a lovey wig for 300 baht
  2. Yes , also It was about 19 or 20 years ago that i last saw him , maybe it was 2005 or 2006.
  3. Last time i saw and spoke to Mr Songpan he had opened a small fishing tackle shop up near the muslim mosque
  4. Well , the way i look at it is , it cost me 14 million in 2005 and that was £185,000 at the time as 75.7 to £ then. I have lived in the Villa which has amazing sea views and a 16 meter pool for 20 years. If i sold it now for the same price of 14 million which i believe would sell almost immediately at that price , then the 14 million is now £325,000 as 43 baht to the pound. So i would have lived rent free for 20 years and still received £140,000 or £7,000 a year whilst living rent free in a villa which now would cost about 100,000 to 120,000 to rent. Here is my view from my lounge.
  5. I can agree that the Andaman Beach Condo is an exception in Patong and foreign freehold units in that particular building were always in high demand. Also the manager there , i forgot his name now was it Mr Sompan ? , anyway he was a very good manager.
  6. No , they either go down in price or remain exactly the same like mine , hasnt gone up in value in 20 years and its a unblocked foreign freehold sea view unit in an excellent location in Patong Having said that , i do agree with Tubulat that the Andaman Beach Suites are a very rare exception and have increased in value due to high demand in that particular building.
  7. Yes , i always get the same problem, it never recognises my face. Also this blink and open your mouth is very confusing
  8. Has anyone else received an email from Santander International, they are now requiring a minimum balance of £75,000 or they will begin to charge £40 a month fee. The problem is i have had this offshore account for 20 years , i use to keep substantial sums in the account but i withdrew most of it because of there ridiculously low interest rates. They are offering a rate of 0.125% on a £75,0000 balance , I can get 4% elsewhere , surely no one is going to invest £75,000 at that low rate of interest rate and no one is going to pay the required £40 a month
  9. She would lose 25,000 if she just walked out if the bar as she would be doing herself out of her half of the 50,000 scam money .
  10. It causes a big problem for people who live abroad . I know one of my customers hasn't been to Thailand for 6 years and has to send funds via the online banking to pay her electricity and water and maintenance payments for her Condominium. She did have the app , but has changed her phone and you cant reinstall the app outside of Thailand Also if you have the app already and go back to your country for a few months and change or lose your phone , you have to go to the Thai bank in person to have the app installed back on your replacement phone. So If your in your own country and want transfer funds from your Thai bank , you wont be able to.
  11. Horse Whip the idiot , this not our country and we must respect it and the culture
  12. Almost as bad as the English guy who tried to exchange these £50 notes in Phuket at the bank
  13. Definitely Bob , i recognise those trousers
  14. The official name for that letter is called " A Bank Guarantee Letter"
  15. I left the UK in 2001 , what made me leave was , every year i would drive up to Bradford from down south to see my accountant . I would stay in the same hotel as ut wss convenient. I drove up there in the year 2000 , and went to the hotel ,this time to my shock a muslim man answered the door and informed me , " Asylum seekers only " and then rudely closed the the door in my face. That together with the fact that at the time they were coming in via the channel tunnel at that time. I realised the UK was doomed and it was best to leave while i had the chance , i was 43 at the time and the UK has done nothing but get worse since then .
