Update: I’m doing fine now, practically no drinking for at least 7 days. Just had some soju and a beer with my girlfriend 2 days ago but since then no real desire to drink because I realize how terrible it was making everything. No physical dependency, it’s all mental here, and I’ll probably be able to stop or heavily cut back to maybe once a week. The 3-day hangovers and sleeplessness aren’t worth it.

 

what the hell are you talking about? You can’t buy weed here legally, least of all for foreigners. Not even allowed for foreigners medicinally.

Good to hear about your "controlled drinking". Weed is not legal but the oil is. Do some research, there are threads in this forum itself as to where it can be obtained. I myself am going to a clinic I found out about on Silom tomorrow.

I paid mine yesterday at Family Mart. Think if it's paid they will discount it in the next bill. I hope.......

Money Heist and Fauda on Netflix. 

April 30? Why, do they have many bookings from the 1st of May ????Am sure will see them postpone the date many times!

Fake Bailey's ........

1 teaspoon red cup coffee, 2 teaspoons Milo 3 in 1, fill to 1/2 cup with hot water.

Add 3 teaspoons sweetened condensed milk and 80ml Hong Thong rum (or or SangSom or whiskey), throw in blender with ice, whizz until smooth.

 

Serve over ice, best drunk quickly while it's still smooth and frothy (usually not a problem).

Hmmm, as my daily body requirement is of 400 ml of whiskey. Guess will just have to invest in a calculator and multiply the rest of the ingredients by 5????

I shifted to Bangkok in 1991. Applied for RP in 1998 through an agent. The deal was 500K for the whole of the family. Half upfront. I was granted the RP within 1 year of applying. My wife and my 2 under age kids got it the following year. All I had to do was sit opposite the immigration officer, present my hands for the finger printing. All the time my agent was present. No interview, no spoken Thai checked. At that time I knew it, that with time it will get more difficult and more expensive. Am happy I went ahead with it then. Yes, I had been paying regular taxes since 1991 and had a work permit. The official fee was included in the 500K.

We are not talking about my English here we are talking about Yinn's English. 

Not sure of the quality of your Thai specifically , but I am sure that her English is much better than most Farang's Thai. 

It is certainly much better than mine  

False narrative.

Sure.

I would hug @villagefarang when ever i do get a chance to meet him. Also would love to rub his bald scalp????

<deleted>. it says visa cards r not supported ????

I have been using my Visa card for years without any problem. The money is automatically deducted from the card after the ride.

Just received my work permit after renewal. Renewal was applied for yesterday with the same THB 200 medical certificate where only my weight and blood pressure was checked by the doctor. It was accepted and the work permit renewed with no problems.

You are absolutely right. But essential for you or everyone ? I can buy it without a PP. 

That's what the law says. All the big money changers require it, the rest of them I do not know as I don't frequent them because the smaller ones also give lower rates.

I use my Thai D/M license for money exchange. There are different places that ask for PP, but it does not mean that you have to use PP only. 

For selling foreign currency, driving license is enough. Where as if buying foreign currency the passport is essential.

MBK in Bangkok has more than a 100 stalls selling them.

Feel sorry for all the people who landed up in group 2. Might as well have eliminated them, when Colinneil landed in that group. ????????

Lumpini Park?

I am paying THB 250 per hour. The maid comes 3 times a week, each time 2 hours. That is the going rate in downtown Bangkok. Most of them are Burmese, so understand English as well.

If you want real happiness then go to Phnom Pehn and have 'happy' pizza available at many restaurants for breakfast, lunch and dinner. True happiness and bliss ?
