I guess you should just ask for Gasohol, without the " tamadaa " added , as that would confuse them that you ask for standard gasoline instead of Gasohol.
Yep, the 'tumada' is just wrong to say as it suggests you want regular gasoline, and by the time they hear 'tuuk sut' their eyes are just glazing over, because he's already asked for 95....
Yes, ditch the thamada, just ask for gasahon 95 - problem solved; you big monkey... ;-0

Great replies fellas - thank you. It sounds like maybe I should buy it.
@NeverSure - do you know what other names they were sold under? I would be interested to find out more about them.
@thailoht - if you don't mind saying, how much did you sell that for?

Well, I am glad to hear that there are now alternatives to the pizza. I was sorely disappointed when I visited and tried their pizzas. Do they not know that a tomato based sauce is required to call it a pizza?
I found them to be dry and bland. A shame, because it's a lovely setup - just not yummy pizzas, and salads served with a super nasty dressing that tasted like it was made with cheap vegetable oil; certainly not olive oil. A great shame, as I liked the place very much.
Maybe they were on an off day when I visited?

I have been looking for a cheapish truck for getting around in. This will include occasional trips with moderate loads, but mostly not too much weight involved. More often than not it will just be used as my run-around.
I know I could get a decent newer truck for 4 or 5 hundred thousand, but I have the chance to buy an old, but very nice condition (and fairly low kilometres travelled) Mighty- X crew-cab type truck from a relative. I quite fancy getting it, but am wary because of the age.
Any opinions on what owning this truck might be like? Are they reliable? Is the AC powerful enough to also feed through to AC the covered truck bed area? Are they fast enough to be okay in modern traffic?
Should I just buy a newer truck?

Hardly rediculous, surely more pinktastic!
Live and let live. Why not let people marry whoever they choose?

I think it depends on how you define active. From some of the mean spirited crotchety posts that I see I would guess that few are active enough to catch a bus. ;-/

It's must be just blocked content for Thailand, because it is still there.
I just watched it, in Thailand. No problem...

A useful ability, but it sounds like a real pain in the ass.

No problem, the Germans will bail them out like they do everybody else.
See, Germany arriving at your door is not always bad!

http://raro.asia has them
Yup I have one - cannot beat for price/quality - the Seagull/Zebra are rubbish compared
The raro pan looks great, but it is a shame they have only the one size. A bigger one is so much more versatile.

I am not keen to drink well water from any heavily populated area with lots of septic tanks of unknown condition and frequency of emptying. My preference is for municipal water, that has been treated, but I still would not drink it.

Interested , but " View the full article " goes to a blank page ...
That's strange, the link works for me.

120k a month would be plenty to afford a decent international education in Chiang Mai, but a struggle in Bkk. With the exception of one very high priced school, there are a number of good choices in CM running from around 100,000 per year for the kindergarten years to around 300,000 per year at the High School age - not cheap, but affordable on 120k if you think it important enough.
You pays your money and takes your choice!

I believe it's because most Thais follow some form of "Buddhism", in line with family beliefs and assume that we all do the same. Christianity is the dominant religion in most western countries, so not an unreasonable expectation by a peope who simply assume that others, like themselves, will hold some form of belief in the supernatural.
I believe we are ruled by cats, but I try not to shove this belief down other people's throats. I wish those with other, equally bizarre (in my opinion) beliefs would have the same courtesy and leave the rural Thai population the hell alone.

How nice to see that there are such honest people in the world.
I wonder how many expats posting here would have returned it if this was left in their taxi?

Knife Sharpening
in Chiang Mai
Posted
Thank you for that. Today I dropped some expensive tailors scissors in at the hair salon supplies place. They will be up to two weeks getting sharpened, so I am told, but for a mere 35 baht - a bargain if it helps them to recover from their abuse by paper cutting children!
I will let you know how good they are when I get them back...
