  1. Cracked walls and ceilings doesn't necessarily mean unsafe. one-up on settlement cracks. A building is designed to flex, and plaster will always crack. Suspect this list going round is not very reliable.
  2. I've got stopped twice. The first time we hadn't entered the route in the book, and we had to go down to the police station and pay a small fine. I forget. Maybe 300 baht. We learned, and the second time it was in the book and the policeman was happy. I should add we were traveling long distance in another province and we had no problem
  3. Try using a different browser
  4. Ask for a certificate? Mind you in Pattaya can get copies!
  5. I just phoned them, it was very easy. But I'm leaving mine in a UK account as a backup to my usual income.
  6. It's a new soup recipe in the frozen meal section.
  7. That was nothing to do with people. Have a look at some of their mythical art and you will understand. More to do with seeing black spirits I suspect.
  8. I like the Shavy 6 blade. I buy on Lazada.
  9. Interesting, and thank you for your article your PSA readings are very similar to my own. And they've only raised a couple of points in 20 years. I found regular sex, or regular exercise increased the PSA reading by up to five points. So I always have three or four days relaxation before I go for a test these days. I came to the same conclusion as you, although in my case I've never had a scan. But I've had three biopsies over the years, which are not a pleasant experience.
  10. You'll notice on almost all BTS and MRT stations, they designed the platform and the doors to board the train so that they could provide longer trains. Of course this was a political move, and they never actually intended to make longer trains than they already had.
  11. You're not going to easily meet anyone in Pattaya. Foreigners and Thais alike are there to have a good time. Not a long time.
  12. Don't forget to get a Thai driving license. If you have no address in the UK you'll be unable to renew your UK one.
  13. I wish I could get rid of mine that easily....
  14. Identifying the culprit is also an issue. So many drivers deliberately remove their registration plate, or simply spray it white so it's hard to read. Big fines for this! Also.... Ghost riders - heavy fines for not having working rear lights on motorbikes.
  15. Why???......
  16. After many years of absence Burger King (Hungry Jacks to you guys down under) have brought back their cherry pies 🙂 So happy to have a cheap and tasty pie.
  17. Let's face it, the USA is not a democracy when it only has two choices for president. Both of them are millionaire elites, and I guess trump is seen as an alternative to the boring continuation of the direction of the USA I think going in for the last few years.
  18. Landlords in Thailand are the same as anywhere else. Treat them and their property with respect, and most likely they will respect you.
  19. https://www.thaieasypass.com/en/links/easypasstopup Sadly a lot of the 'English' is in Thai
  20. The national park used to run night safari tours in Songthaews. Not sure if that stopped during covid. Really you need to consider renting a car. It's so much better than sitting in the back of some truck.
  21. No age limit. I opened one for a 3 year old at Omsin - GSB
  22. Buy a car telephone holder and use Google maps in your car. Simplest way. But as previous posts have said you don't have to go that far. If you're going from BTS Nana go into the far right hand lane at nana intersection so it seems like you're going on the wrong side of the road, but there is a lane there, and a bit further down you'll get to the tollway intersection on the right. From there just head north till you get to saraburi, then go on the ramp and head on Route 2 northeast towards korat. Just after the Khao Yai intersection you'll find you can get on the new motorway which will deliver you to the outside of korat. No toll yet because they haven't built the toll booths.
