  1. I had the 2 pfizer vaccines last year after paying for moderna and yesterday I got one of my moderna vaciines as they were finally released here, my wife had 2 chinese vaccines through her work then had a moderna in Bangkok just before christmas as a booster and will use my second moderna shot as another booster as the chinese ones are not really great and the fact that one of her workers had covid after the 2 chinese shots
  2. I got my moderna booster shot yesterday as well after the 2 pfizer shots last year, not really urinating any more than usual, bit of a headache yesterday was it, not even a sore arm, better after effects than the pfizer as they gave headaches for a couple of days and a sore arm.
  3. he said he had stayed in one place for 14 days which was an outright lie as can be seen in the videos/pic of him at a couple of different places, also while he claims he had tested positive for covid on the 16th dec the computer records say the test was negative not positive and also says he was tested on the 26th dec not the 16th, too many discrpencies so they told him to <deleted> off as they should
  4. thankyou, that is the information we needed, will try to see if we can get them to agre to do it
  5. thats what we tried to do, when we did the extension in December immigration told us that I needed to change the yellow book but the amphoe were the ones that said it was too hard and wasnt needed even when we said immigration said we needed to do it for the new address, no one seems to know what they are supposed to do or simply dont want to do it
  6. thats what we thought, immigration told us to get a new one but they do not want to issue one, they kept saying that it is too hard and that I dont need to do it as I am still in the same region even if a different district because we still own the other house and go back there at times plus our daughter stays there when she is not at the hospital. We tend to think that its because they dont know what to do or just cant be bothered but will see what immigration does at the next extension unless we can find out more, could also be a matter of do what we say not what the regulations say
  7. hahahaha, yes not following the driving laws/regulations is way better for Thailand, maybe thats why Australias road deaths are so much lower than they are here. My wife couldnt believe how much better drivers were in Australia, the road courtesy etc and the fact that the drivers follow the road laws as well as seeing police patrolling the roads that are well maintained. Really have to wonder at your driving ability if you had to watch your speedo all the time, maybe the problem was your need to drive like thais, in all the years(40) I drove there I never had a problem sticking to the speed limit same as it is here, when I was a young hoon I would speed but that stopped as I got older and had more common sense, anyone saying driving is better in Thailand needs a dose of reality
  8. and you can also do a colour/pattern in the polished cement floors as well, it looks brilliant and way better than tiles to look at, sounds like they are trying to do what is easiest for them not what you want them to do, this has to be done right the first time or you will be having troubles forever. We built last year and as I had been in the building industry in Australia for many years I was on top of it from the start, was pleased they did a great job but I still had to pull them up at times to get what I wanted. I did all the painting and it totally confused them watching me use drop sheets, remove fittings etc so it was done right, they also were confused as to why I wasnt adding heaps of water to the paint and why I was patching all the dings in the walls(after I had blocked them to remove all the loose cement/dust etc as well as brooming down all the ceilings)and woodwork. Thai building is nothing like western building standards and you need to be on top of it all the time if you want it done right
  9. looks like a fresh reactions to me, the redness and blister look like burns from whatever she had done, does she mean she has had it for 2 years or wont go out for 2 years as it doent look like its been there too long
  10. Has anyone changed their province and address in their yellow book, we just tried and were told it is too hard and that farangs are supposed to stay in towns/cities so it is easier to keep track of them. Kind of threw us as my wife said that they didnt sound like they knew what they were talking about, they said that you have to cancel your current book and 13 number then be issued with a new 13 number & book, thought it might be a good idea to see if any other members have tried to change their yellow book elsewhere and if they had any problems, we are in Surat Thani and moved to Kanchanadit
  11. I have just been booked in(15th) for my paid for moderna shot as a my third shot after my first 2 pfizer shots so it is getting distrbuted, I am in Surat Thani.
  12. cutting metal next to a highly flamable liquid, once again we see thai men showing lack of common sense then trying to make a big claim out of it when they are totally to blame, gold will still be there but melted if it ever was there but I find it hard t believe that they just left that much lying around
  13. going by his own standards/comments he has made, doesnt this make him and all his family/guests without masks dirty thais seeing he called us dirty farangs because one person didnt want to take & wear a mask he was handing out, then again here in Thailand it seems to be one rule for the govt/elite and a totally different one for the other thais/farangs
  14. all the workers where my wife is the manager have had sinopharm, one has since come down with covid, my wife got a booster shot of moderna in Bangkok(paid for it many months ago) and I am waiting for moderna to arrive at the private hospital where I have paid(also many months ago) for it to be a booster for me after having the 2 phizer shots so hopefully my moderna shot will be in one of these lots
  15. so he had built a bridge without the land owners permission and was charging people to go onto their private land that the owners knew nothing about then attacked a female when she refused to pay him, doesnt matter what the female did, this man was doing something totally illegal in the first place by charging people to access someone elses land, he should have to pay all her costs as well as restitutuion and also give all the money he had charged everyone to go onto the land to the land owners seeing he did not have their permission to do so
  16. did my extension in december, got the bank letter and full statement the day before as it takes a fair bit of time for the bank to do it but they wanted the bank book update for the day we applied
  17. if they are commercially packaged and on the allowed list they are ok but if they are natural they can be rejected, my wife sends seeds/plant material worldwide and everything going to the US needs a phyto included or it is rejected, over a certain quantity and an import permit is required by the buyer
  18. to send any plant material to the US you need a phytosantary certificate(unless commercially packaged and on the allowed list), while lemon grass maybe ok to send along with other plant material you still have to have the phyto or it can be rejected, in some cases you also need an import permit to get it into the US
  19. transfer from my aussie bank to wise then to my bank in Thailand is a matter of minutes if done during the day, did a transfer boxing day(26th) late at night and it was in my Bangkok bank when I checked in the following morning
  20. My wife is the manager of a fairly big export company with quite many workers both at the port and the mine, in Australia she would be getting 4 plus times what she earns here which is under 80,000 baht a month, wages in Thailand are a lot lower than the west
  21. this is expected with the attitude of many here, like the road laws etc, following the regulations is all optional especially if it stops you from doing what ever you want to
  22. if it is the head lady doing this then best option is to pay for the 2 month extension and then apply again, that way you know it will be approved in 2 months, it should also keep her on side, the general staff that do the applications and the had person are totally different cases, you can get the generl staff to change but rarely the head person
  23. unfortunately there are those that do not fence their animals in or restrain them, in Australia the farmer/owner of the animal would have to pay all the damage bill for the car & driver but here its not normal. I hit a chicken a few years ago when it ran across the road in front of me and the owner went nuts, I checked my car and told them that it didnt damage the car so they didnt have to pay for any damage and they walked off with the dead chicken. Buffalo are usually tethered on the side of roads so they cannot get on the road, obviously the owner didnt really give a s**t and should have to pay for her car and her hospital bill
  24. I originally used to do monthly transfers for several years for my marriage extension but changed to money in the bank so I didnt have to travel to Bnagkok and argue with the thai staff about getting my govt notices stamped. My transfers varied every month due to the exchange rates plus when I had extra in my account from my partial business, it was never queried, really does sound like she is being a total b***h, have you tried speaking to the head person in the office
  25. we had to do the same thing for the renewal last week in Surat Thani, every passport page but only 2 months for the money plus one month waiting for the approval, only took us an hour all up as well
