When the local vicar has been on the communion wine is when you need to worry!

Not even a really bad singers who should be banned from inflicting misery on other people for life?

Why? Some items are only available to buy if you order from Chinese sellers. Like with everything, a little bit of common sense goes along way.

When it comes road to safety, nobody cares about people riding in the back of pickups so why do they believe anyone is going to care about someone sitting on a plastic chair in a mini van?

Yes. My wife is 3 years older than me and you've no idea the amount of ridicule she has to put up with...

Sorry, I'm confused. What does owning socks have to do with anything relating to this topic? Are ladies of the night not allowed, under Thai law to get cold feet?

How many dirty towels? It could be your exceeded the weight limit of the machine and the washing load wasn't balanced correctly. Alternatively you could pay someone to sit on it. Apparently some girls quite enjoy the experience....

An entire village, so maybe 300 by name at a rough estimate. How about you?

Interesting. Because after 14 years of living in rural Thailand I've yet to meet a Thai person with anything that even resembles what I would consider a high level of patience. In fact I've long suspected that their patience levels don't develop after they are 10 years old. Lack of patience is also one of the major reasons so many of them die on the road each year. Running red lights and not waiting at U-turns are just a couple of examples of chronic impatience.

Just a couple of quick questions... The last I heard it now takes one month to process free residency certificates at CM. Is this still up to date information? Also, is it correct that CM immigration only except applications for residency certificates in the morning? I know you have to go upstairs. Thanks in advance ????

Dinosaurs.

Let's hope they didn't publicly name the shop otherwise Thailand's answer to Sweeney Todd could be on the war path!

What were you cooking in them? Semtex?

They don't have the capacity of those glass convection ovens although they do share the same technology. Air fryers do however cook really quickly so you wouldn't necessarily need to cook a big batch of chicken wings all at the same time. You could cook them in batches. The one I have which I believe has a 5.5 litre capacity can accommodate a smallish whole chicken no problem.

This has happened many times in our house. The main cause being that not enough gap was left between the tiles when they were laid. So, when the house settles, as they all do the only way for them to go is up. It's not about heat because we've had problems in the cool season as well.

So are they suggesting that all people from the west don't shower twice a day? Because that in it's self is having a pop at western culture and claims that we are all dirty and smelly. So who ever wrote this article has a problem with what some of us say about Thai culture but is more than happy to rather unjustly have a go at us.

Just use Wise or similar.

Quiche Lorraine is French. Therefore, by it's own definition it has to be posh.

My favorite part of Angkor Wat was the temples reclaimed by the jungle.

You mean like this?

It is of course entirely possible that he had met some Thai lovely online and is now under her spell somewhere in the back and beyond.

I've been to a lot of weddings here including my own. But as yet, I've never been to a wedding that took place at a temple. Of course that doesn't in any way mean that people can't get married at temples. More common venues are the bride's home if they have the space to accommodate it, hotels, resorts or restaurants. The actual ceremony doesn't really take that long, certainly not all day. But of course if you want a big reception, well that's a different story.

I'm not entirely sure that there is an "agents fee" when using the VFS service in Chiang Mai. If there is is it's very small and well hidden. I renewed my passport there earlier this year and I paid what I'm fairly sure is the same price as what someone renewing their passport in Britain would pay. Plus, of course an additional courier fee to have it shipped out to Thailand. I also paid in pounds sterling, not baht.

Those who will be living 20 million years from now?

Well they just need to get their priorities right! You might want to consider moving to a backpackers guest house where they employ their own barista.
