Hua Hin seems to be unique in charging for this. It's certainly a free service in Bangkok.
Chiang mai is free

Every year between Christmas and New Year I take Grandweans out shopping and then to eat. Last year they wanted Shabu, before that, Sushi. This year they want Pizza. My preferred choice of restaurant closed during the Pandemic and has not reopened.
Recommendation please for a good quality,not junk, Pizza in Muang Chiang mai or not far outside.

I come from a farming district. It is normal when selling beasts at auction, to put a reserve, i.e minimum acceptable price on the item(s) for sale. If the highest bid does not meet this expected price, then no sale. I can recall many occasions over the years when livestock was returned to the farm unsold.

The floor drain in one of our bathrooms is emitting a stale smell. It is the room attached to our guest bedroom and is used infrequently so I suspect that it is caused by old water lying in it. I have put some caustic soda solution and later a lot of very hot water down it. This has improved things a lot but not completely eliminated the smell.
Suggestions and/or recommendations please to eradicated the smell.

Don't bother trying to grow any temperate vegetables. I tried it by getting seeds sent to me from a reputable seed merchant in the south of england. They germinated and grew well but none set seed. I suspect that the local pollinating insects could not recognise them.
Stick to local vegetables.

Lotus on the super highway had it today.
Lee & Perrins right next to the Thai version. I believe it was 95 baht per bottle and the Thai version was 60 baht for a bit larger bottle.
Thank you

I have one these birds close to my condo. For a small bird it can make a lot of noise and goes on all hours of the day and night.
I was about to make the same comment, but you bet me to it!

Loads of it on the shelves at Rimping Meechok, bought some 2 days ago. The local Trukey Brand orange label is a decent analogue of the real thing, much better that Kikkoman or others.
And yes, this is the Chiang Mai forum so all you who post useless replies for Pattaya and stores that we don't have here just wake up and switch on your brains.
Thank you, I intended to point out that I am near Chiang mai

I have been unable to find a new bottle. No luck in any Big C, Makro, Lotus or Rimping. No even in Green's.
Has any member seen it on sale anywhere?

I shop a lot at local fresh markets. I cannot imagine the vendors accepting any thing other than cash.
Also, I have been often been frustrated in supermarkets when the customer ahead of me tries to pay by using some application on a"smart" phone and repeatedly cannot get it to work, while the neighbouring queue uses cash and clears about 3 customers while I wait.

Sister-in-Law bought 4 new tyres for her car because the shop where she got the car serviced, ( offered to change the oil and filters for her but was told not to), told her that they were already 2 years old and no longer safe. They had only done 28000km. I tried to tell her that it was a scam but, no, "you falang don't know about Thai cars". The car is Japanese.

I did the same thing 6 months ago.
From posting my old PP to receiving the new it took 33 days as opposed to VFS quote of 13 to 15 weeks.
Chiang mai Immigration refused the transfer without the authorization letter and I EMailed UK Embassy requesting them to send me one. 12 days later they replied with a brush off, I quote, "we do not interfere in disputes with Thai Immigration Authorities", thus indicating they did not read my communication.properly.
Eventually, via the Consul in Chiang mai, I got another EMail address and tried again. This time a different clerk replied asking me if I wanted them to send a form. Again indicating a failure to read my mail thoroughly. I replied in the affirmative and this time, to their credit, It was delivered by Thailand post 3 days later. From 1st. enquiry to receiving the form took 5 weeks
The EMail address I got them on was Bangkok Documentary Services <[email protected]>.

Not using rice land for 15 years - let it go fallow or lease?
in Farming in Thailand Forum
Posted
In five years a vacant piece of land near me has become so overgrown with self sown trees that some are already 3 metres tall and the bushy undergrowth is do dense that it needs a brushcutter just to walk through it. Think what can happen in 15 years.
Al least plant some fruit trees, their shade will stifle a lot of unwanted growth.
