  1. I've done a couple of 90-day reports without the new form. Along with the receipts immigration included a new 90-day form but not the new information form. When I went to immigration last week to do a retirement extension, I had to fill out the new information form.

  2. I think El Pollo Loco would do a bang-up business here in CM what with the abundance of chickens. Taco Bell, too. Also, a Jamaican "jerk" chicken place with its spicy flavors might be very popular with the Thais. .

  3. I was really hoping we'd be finished with the burning season by Songkran. But I saw a layer of ash on my black car this morning which was heavier than any time this year, and the haze was as bad this morning as anytime last year. Usually this problem is over before Songkran. sick.gif

  4. Thailand has about 25.000 deadly traffic casualties every year.

    25.000 / 365 = 68.5 average per day.

    So seems normal.

    Compared to death rates overseas, it's not so crazy. In the USA over the Songkran period approximately 150 people were shot to death. Are there statistics which indicate the percentage of victims who were riding scooters?

    Approx 82% of the victims were riding motorbikes, which is about the normal percentage.

  5. OK I'm putting this to bed. After research i've discovered that the owner is a Chinese investor trying to break into the Chiang Mai restaurant scene. Classic is his first venture and I'm sure not his last. I wish Khun Phatmaas the best of luck

    There is a rather fat gent there who looks like a manager /owner .Talks and looks like a Westener .Not Chinese .

    His name is Craig, an American with a Thai wife. Nice guy. He sat with me and talked about his local sources for the beef, cheese and bacon he uses in his burgers. Even offered me a free piece of bacon to try. (It was very good.) He gave me a complimentary card with a couple of stamps on it toward a free meal. His wife runs the place when he's not there. I like it and hope it stays around for a while.

  6. If you're not a vegan or vegetarian, you probably will already get enough B-12 from animal fats in your diet. If you're concerned about needing supplemental B-12, you might consider getting a blood test which would indicate any deficiency. Surplus B-12 would only be excreted in your urine.

  7. I remember the good old days when the Bangkok airports used to be chok a block with people wanting to come to Thailand, those were the days when Thailand was really nice , those days Thailand was a cheap destination and there were friendly girls everywhere , any bar you would walk into and the girls would all clamour for my company , these days when you walk into a bar , the girls just say "Youre going to have to pay double, you fat bald incoherent old twunt" .

    Thailand just isnt the same any more, its not like how it used to be 30 years ago

    Of course you'll have to pay double. You're 30 years older!
