  2. It was 7 years ago, I shipped 300Kg of household goods from a rural area in Scotland to Chiangmai. They supplied boxes and collected on the assigned date. All arrived safely but three weeks later then promised. A long delay at the Suez Canal. https://www.sevenseasworldwide.com/
  3. On my second trip to Thailand in 1979, a freelancer who had picked me up, insisted on my taking her to a cinema showing the Mae Nak story. I managed to understand it and enjoyed it, but she was in floods of tears at the end and it took a very large ice-cream to subdue her.
  4. Some very good stores on Chang Moi Road just East of the moat.
  5. I have noticed that very many Thais (especially construction workers) have no fear of electricity.

  14. My breaker does the same but less often and I put it down to variation in the supply voltage
  15. I recall an article many years ago from the Stalin era that Russian women were reward with a special medal for having a large family to replace those killed in wars.
  16. Short term leased aircraft usually remain on the parent airline's home country registry. International regulations require crew members to hold licences issued by that country, thus any Thai pilot would need to obtain a foreign licence.
  17. I just completed this quiz. My Score 70/100 My Time 145 seconds  
  18. I criticized my grand-neice for not slowing down when reaching a flood. I turned out that she had never heard of aquaplaning.
