  1. If you miss him just catch the lift to the top penthouse condo at view talay and knock on the door. He will not mind. Hes not on the juice anymore and looks rather skinny. Building next to the hilton. cheers
  2. except the main drawback is that they are one or all of the following: alcoholics, pot smokers (addicts) or pay for play men.
  3. We were recently at the land office asking if Im allowed to register a 30 yr lease on a small plot of land thats in the wifes name. The officer seemed a bit ambivalent about it actually. We do not live in a province that has a lot of farang. He asked why do I want to do this and I didnt know what the correct thing to say was. If you have any ideas please let me know what to say there. One thing he did say was that it would not be possible to register a Usufruct on the chanote thats in my wifes name. He basically said bring all docs and it will be considered. It didnt fill me full of confidence actually. If you have recently done this please share your experience. Actually Ive read many threads before over several years with farang registering both usufructs and leases. It seems that this particular office might not be privy with the laws/ rules. I dont think its right if this guy makes up his own rules based on his own moral code. If you have experience with this is the main clause to be in the lease relates to the right to build a house? Is there anything else that should be included apart from the option to renew after 30 yrs. thanks
  4. He must really hate them knowing it will mentally destroy them for a long time to come. Sadistic.
  5. Court case over a barking dog. One would have to be barking mad. BIG money and lengthy delays for any court case in Thailand. Please move to Thailand and live here before you start making your western opinions. Court case haha
  6. Ridiculous comment. Ive read a lot of your posts and they mostly seem to indicate that you have no idea about thailand. Do you actually live here. If you did you would know that your suggestion above is 100% terrible advice for many reasons. Please think before you type next time and take out Doctor from your name. It doesn't suit you.
  7. very sad. RIP. Ive nearly had several close calls due to alcohol. One must be careful
  8. Not really an issue surely? Still can use it and just keep quiet. No implications at all. No need to be anally rententive about this.
  9. Thanks BKKBike. Its precisely what is happening to mine. Oink needs to think before writing troll comments.
  10. Actually the address on the back of the thai license is in English and Thai language. At least it is on mine
  11. Was thinking of taking a holiday to oz. I only have a Thai drivers license. As we all know it has my name and address in English. Its a bit old and faded. Will it be accepted to hire a car? Does thailand ever issue International DL's? thanks
  12. 5 yrs ago I had a similar cast iron pan. When I fried eggs, I looked under the cooked eggs and there was black color there. I was oiling the pan to stop it from rusting. Before use, I would wipe with paper towel. But still when cooking eggs I always saw this black stuff on the bottom of the eggs. Can you try this and let me know if its the same in your kitchen
  13. Actually the 100% cheapest option in Thailand that will NOT cost your thai family here anything is to donate your body to Science. Its a matter of filling out a form that you download from the website of the Siriraj Piyamaharajkarun hospital in bangkok. After you submit the forms they will send you a member card and you keep it in your wallet. If you die your wife can call them and they send a van immediately. After medical and dental students are finished doing surgery on all parts of your body it will be cremated and they inform the date etc to your wife. She can attend the ceremony along with anyone else who cares. Unsure if its available to westerners but surely should be. Call them
  14. I just finished watching 'Dark Waters' on Netflix. Its based on a true story about a lawyer suing the 'DuPont' company for poisoning people with the chemical PFOA in relation to the frying pan Teflon. Ive used the teflon style non stick pans in my kitchen. After a while I can see the black teflon scratches on the pan exposing the silver surface underneath. I tried a cast iron pans before but they rusted all the time. Also tried the silver wok pans. What are you using?
  15. plant bamboo down there. Block her out. Or put on your speedos and cover yourself with baby oil. No issues there
  16. Come on. This is an embarrassment for the police. Absolutely incompetent with hundreds of people watching and taking videos. The other 2 should have grabbed him and cuffed him.
  17. Dr's and dentists all around the world might disagree with you. If you dont excel at Maths you dont cut the grade for these 2 elite professions.
  18. Yes I know. I was being sarcastic. A few months ago I thought its the wild east in Bangkok now. A complete free for all.
  19. A few months ago I was amazed to see how much action there was on soi 11 at night time. Street parking was mostly taken up by numerous small caravan sellers of medical weed. It was the new happening place ever since the amazing health minister legalised marijuana. I remember seeing a lot of tourists smoking joints. It was really busy and fun place. Bars and restaurants full. Real party atmosphere Now all the drug dealers have all been moved on. It was really quiet this week. The taxis could even get a car spot to park their car. Have the police changed their tune now in this entire area around Nana bts? Whats happened to all the drug dealers selling their legal medicinal marijuana?
  20. Totally agree with your comment. My wife is a dentist. She says a very small % of patients are hyper sensitive to pain etc with their anxiety issues. A day or 2 after treatment they usually call and want to come back with unusual minor pain. She more or less tells them to wait a few days or longer. In most cases it is nothing... just the patient 'thinking too much' or she said 'over thinking' about it.
  21. thats gross. I dont want to think about it. ie you shooting blanks
  22. get real. the baht buses are excellent service in pattaya. What a stupid idea to stop them
  23. Thats disgusting. Does she like to sleep with ants and rats running around the bed. What a weirdo.
  24. What sort of specialist would test for 1 and 2. Is it Urology? I could not tolerate n.o 3
