  1. What about people who decided they wanted to retire here about say 15 years ago, because the rules then were far easier than they are now? I would never retire here today under the present system which treats you like a prisoner on parole with the ridiculous 90 day reporting.
  2. I will never overstay, but if I do not agree with any laws, I will ignore them and just break them if I can find a way round them.
  3. If you were an old guy many years ago, you must be about ready to get a telegram from old King Charlie. That's if you are from the UK. ????
  4. No he isn't, just as long as he is not jumping on a motorbike or car after he is finished.
  5. Your Lucky. Mine is full of intermittent faults, sometimes I cannot even get the alarm to go off so I have to switch the complete phone off and turn back on. If all these faults would stay then maybe I could get them fixed.
  6. The best answer must be, because they can. Capitalism pops up everywhere, anytime.
  7. I did not say they were all stupid, I said that most of them are, and I stand by that. Most, yes I mean most Thai drivers and motorbike riders are stupid and not fit to be behind a steering wheel or handlebars..
  8. I am not saying he was not wrong, it was the way you accused him of BS, I think that was wrong about a guy who was only trying to be helpful.
  9. "but the vets refuse to "put them to sleep". That is because as long as the animal is still alive the veterinary surgeon can make money by charging the owners for treatment and medicine. In other words using the animals suffering to line their pockets.
  10. You mention education. You cannot educate stupid which most Thai drivers and motorbike riders are.
  11. Labrador??
  12. DrJack54 is only trying to be helpful, not BSing his way out of anything. Both him and Ubon Joe are very helpful for posters with immigration problems. They cannot always be on the ball when IO's all over Thailand are always making up their own rules.
  13. No more than other countries, and governments are the worst of the lot.
  14. How are they going to know if you don't tell them? Then again do they only rent for two or three days at a time, which will not make it worthwhile to rent a big bike at all.
  15. I have also found that to be the case, a few days ago I had to travel 15 Ks to the nearest town to get any milk and there are two 7-11's and a Lotus in my village.
  16. In a earlier post I mentioned Villa Market as the worst value supermarket, I had forgotten about Foodmart in Jomtien as I was only in there once and due to their prices have never been back. Is the aforementioned the only Foodmart in Pattaya? I haven't seen any more.
  17. IMO the worst supermarket for value is Villa Market.
  18. 3 years old. Note 6. It was fine at first, also had great reviews, that is why I bought it. Big mistake.
  19. When Thailand has a Junta government, as what has happened a few times over the years, it's because they have elected themselves, and no one can argue against that with the soldiers, tanks and guns behind them.
  20. Oh! Look! There they are again. The unelected PM and his sleeping partner. ????
  21. Getting rid of unelected "politicians" must surely be the first priority.
