    Google:  lookpud shop chiang mai.

       "Look paht" means "bead" in Thai and this shop has everything imaginable for making costume jewelery.

       Wonderful place.

    Totally agree.

    That shop is fascinating, a great place to browse around.

    You could get tricked out like a 1920s flapper and do it on the cheap.

    Never heard of  mosquitos in a sewage [septic] tank.

    You would think it would be too toxic for anything but bacteria to live in.

    In any other kind of a tank the introduction of small fish usually solve the problem.  They eat the luk nahm as fast as they appear.

    We have little fish in our lotus ponds and no problems with mosquitos.

    Well that's the local residents lives turned upside down, will no longer be a small coastal community.

    Harry and Meghan will become the main industry in the little town.

    Hordes of paparazzi following the royal couple wherever they are.

    Security agents omnipresent when these celebrities are in residence.

    There's money to be made off people in high places.

    The Photo and Copy Shop is across the road from Immigration. If you park in the Spa car park next door do your copy chores before crossing to Immigration. It's 4 lanes of quite heavy traffic you're facing - most of it determined to get to, or away from, the airport as quickly as possible.

    Thanks for that helpful information.

  5. Where is the best place to have photos taken to be included with an extension of stay application?

    There was a convenient photocopy shop near the Promenada IO.  Is there something similar near the new offices?

    Also, what are the current requirements for size and background color?

    Any information would be appreciated.

    As a general rule to watering any plants which are in direct sunlight .. Avoid getting the leaves wet. otherwise they will scorch in the sun, much like using a magnifying glass as a kid to start a fire or pop some ants. Water the soil only.

     

    Where I stay we have a gardner who sprays the leaves thinking he's giving the plants a drink. Clearly not qualified for the job. I'm often out there snipping off the scorched stems and leaves.

    That sounds like good common sense.

    Also something that would apply to Thailand even more than the Northeastern US where we're from.
