when will they allow Big bikes 500cc plus to go on the Motorways like in civilised countries

prices for legal hash and weed in Pattaya are ridiculous , up to 4or 5 times more than the Illegal stuff I can buy easily in UK ,, also most of the Thai weed I have smoked tastes crummy but yes it does get you off nicely , I prefer hash though as I can chose the mix off tobacco or use a bong ..

saw my first wife who was irish dancing naked covered in silver paint on stage for hawkwind in 1969 I was 11 years old we met again in a bar when I was 17 and playing in a band she was 31 , we married and were together for 18 years with 3 kids but she died of cancer .Second wife is Thai met her at a bus stop in 1995 , she was a famous professional Thai cabaret singer we are still married but I now live with the mia noi who i met in Whats up when she was 35 and the best dancer in pattaya and Bkk she won every agogo competition 4 years running in her 30s , she is 53 now and runs a market garden and durian farm , still loves dancing on nights out also had another 2nd mia noi who I met at Pattaya Bangkok hospital she was main Trauma Doctor in the emergency room when I had a motorcycle accident we were together for 9 years but she is now working in a hospital in Tulsa USA and married to a lawyer interesting thing is that she sometimes freelanced in TQ1 for extra money as Thai hospital junior doctors salary was not great

this scam is also rife in UK , certain shopping apps can install scam software also certain Fintech apps from legitimate companies are compromised . the scammers can then access your bank accounts , cradit cards and empty them , some UK banks are aware and compensate but HSBC is denying victims by saying its impossible and many people have lost large sums of money but the Police and other banks admit its a problem , HSBC will eventually have to pay up too . , Its a new development started in May last year obviously now in Thailand , the original software is Russian , Itonly affects Phone financial app software on Both android and I phone ,, best thing is not to have any bank or shopping software on your phone .. Computers are OK for now

Be very careful Booking with Qatar they code share with BA for UK part of flight, apart from BA planes being filhy, food terrible and not great inflight entertainment or service BA cancel many flights and Qatar have no influence ,on one BA flight most of us got Food poisoning and where puking and <deleted>ting ourselves silly In Qatar airport , spent 2 days in hospital, it was nasty , upsetting embarrasing etc BA could not give a Toss , still waiting for compensation from BA 11 months later . The Qatar part of journey to LOS is good its the BA part that is rubbish ,, and BA accept no responsibility , I normally travel emirates but due to emergency had to get tickets on Qatar twice last year ,

Citibank which I used here faultlessly for business reasons for 12 years is now UOB and im happy as they have top ratings and super services as well as 158 Branches wheras Citi only had 3 but for overseas transaction and investments they were great . tried HSBC thailand but it was hopeless compared to HSBC Singapore which superb when I worked there . SCB I have used for 29 years never had a problem , very efficient compared to but when I used Bangkok bank and Thai farmers had many errors , poor service and recently My wife who had Bangkok Bank accounts for 25 years has closed them due to scams, bad service and account errors she lost 200,000 baht and it is now in a sort of class action with Thai banking regulators as BKB stonewall and there are many complainants , .She is now with KrungSri for her business and SCB for personel I will never ever touch Bangkok Bank again or Thai farmers . Fastest growing Thai bank for customer base and branches is Krung Sri as many people leaving Bangkok Bank and TF due to issues they are opening more branches when BKB and TF close down many also their technology seems better .. Have recently seen many people in UK very unhappy with their banks , HSBC are closing branches and also having terrible customer service issues , last year I closed my 55 years old HSBC UK accounts and switched to Nationwide for better service, better products and also because I had seen many friends and my Daughter having appalling issues with HSBC who would stonewall until taken to court or Ombudsman when HSBC were clearly in error ..Ombudsman recovered £15k plus 10k compensation for my daughter from HSBC but it took 2 years and the report said they should have dealt with it immediately as it was their error instead they closed her accounts and blacklisted her , this has all been put right obviously she uses other banks now .

I use my 4g phone hotspot in Thailand to send signal wifi to laptop or smart TV which vpn would you reccomend , I tried Nord and it was bad for UK sports and BBC got some results with windscribe but a bit slow

In UK most 5g plans are same price now as 4g plans as telco migrate .so 5g is no brainer , but Thailand still lagging on 5g plans

My 3 year old ASUS laptop has a faulty charging socket which needs replacing but no one has available spares even ASUS authorised repair centre any ideas ???

drag racing sometimes in Nontaburi

she may be playing the long game ,, its not unheard of , or just a nice woman looking for a good time ??? time will tell when i was first in Thailand 30 years ago I was living in Phuket and my landlady was very HISO wife of the Mayor of Phuket town ,, very rich 4 kids, mercedes, Hubby very influential,, then she started coming on to me a we shagged regularly i gave her 500baht , which was funny as finacially she was loaded and covered in gold and gems , so one day i asked her what her game was and she said she was from a middle class chinese Thai family in the silk business in BKK finished uni and to cover her debts as she liked the good times .she went on the game to HISO Thai men and thats how her hubby met her , she said most Thai women sell pussy one way or the other ,, . she was in her 40s then so old lady now but her husband ended up as a governer of Ranong and an MP , they are still happily married ????

standing for 3 years may mean tyres are no good and other items may not work properly , seized brakes is common , will need MOT and pass emmisions test and full service oil change at least ,, Getting temporary insurance as a non resident on Foreign license likey to be very pricey and you can MOT with no tax but cant get Tax without MOT , what make of cars is it may work out cheaper to rent a vehicle if costs of getting your car and insuring and taxing it are too high. I keep a car in Uk but its garaged and used 6 months of the year , my wife is Thai but even with 20 year NCD in Thailand getting her insurance for 3 months in UK is now too expensive , also my Austrian cousin was quoted silly money . both were in region of £850 for 3 months when the normal insurance for me and daughter is £420 a year it was better before 2012 , montly foreigner rates were were only about £75 a month fot my wife for 3 months , but insurance rule changes scuppered that

Its diesel always use best B7 , no black smoke at all , fuel filters changes yearly Toyata did a full scan and said no issues , no leaks and tyre pressure is the reccomended 31psi mostly fuel from PTT , we are averaging 2000kms a month used to fill up about 3 times now have to fill up 4 most months . Im puzzled . lovely vehicle was a replacement for old 1990 Isuzu TFR that hit 647,000kms when we sold it after 20 years , Its still in Use in khon Khen now , and has 730,000 kms , also not much smoke but its very primitive ,, Hilux revo is comfy fast and well equiped ,, all my other vehicles here are big bikes which is my preferred transport but GF uses Hilux for business

My GF grows durian in Ban Chang ,she points out that if you have 100 trees only 70% will produce fruit in any one year it takes 6-7 years for fruit to be of decent size and quality for sale and life span of Durian trees is average 12 years ,, and her trees fruit in September to November also many Thai Doctors tell patients not to eat Durian as its so Fattening and calorific one decent portion is over 1000 calories ,, many Thai women will scoff 3 or 4 portions and pile on the pounds and cholestorel etc , mind u my GF is only 37 Kilos so she should scoff her Durian as she really ought to be 43 kg

A well known and respected British Visa agent recently died In Pattaya after a long illness and his company now run by Thai staff has imploded . Im hoping its not that company . If its not then make Police report about stolen Passport as advised , There are some excellent agents around but there are also Cowboys , both Thai and foreigner run

The safest Thai bank is probably SCB as Royal Family are major shareholders many wealthy and HISO thais prefer it as its unlikey to go bust GSB and Agricultural banks are OK but very limited services as they are aimed primarily at Thais and farmers Over the years never seen problems with SCB or Krungsri Banks but seen lots of problems people have had with Kasikorn {thai farmers] and also bangkok bank .

My Hilux is now 4 years old 74,000 kms regularly toyota services , but fuel consumption is about 20% more than before on same mileage , Airfilters changed , Toyota service say there is nothing wrong they have checked injectors etc but I am refuelling more ften and can see the fuel consumption is worse ,, any ideas ,,

Thai military needs and prefers Professional soldiers for long term Commitment and technology and combat skills training and they only really need maybe 80,000 . Most conscripts only get basic training and are used as cheap labour for 2 years by vested interests .

I have had Dengue fever twice in Pattaya in 2006 and 2012 spent 5 days in memorial both times very ill on intavenous rehydration drips and pain killers its like flu but hurts more 3rd day was worse with the peak fever and potential death , In older days Dengue was known as ''Break Bone Fever'' due to the pain and soreness

We have some property near kabinburi 3 rai next to Phrapong river between kabin and Sakaeo in rainy season it would be flooded but we raised it 1.5m 22 years ago and it never gets flooded now the wate gets to half a meter from top but the crucial thing is to put trees and plants all around the sides to reinforce the banks once the plants have matured in as little as 18months then the whole thing is strong stable and will not erode we now have for last 21 years 30 rental rooms on the site and a shop . the road next to our site gets a bit of water on it but locals can still pass by we are also only 30m from main 33 Highway

Thai gold bars are 99.9% pure gold but jewelery need some additional alloys to give it strength so as low as 96% is possible depending on makers . It is not about the colour , gold in India, Middle east and pure gold in Europe is yellow like thai gold ,, Europeans have fashion purposes and also clevr marketing prefered lower quality whiter gold i 18, 14 and 9 carat types , but gold bars in Europe are 24ct 99.9% pure same Thai bars Asians , Africans, Arabs Orientals and investors would never buy European type <deleted> gold

I did it again myself with a wax ring from Boonthavrn in Bang sarey and silicone around ceramic base and 2 new stainless bolts and now the problem is solved .. Bloody Thai ripoff bodgers ,,,

Memorial took good care of me when I had Dengue fever , have used Sirikit too for minor accident both OK and relatively cheap. Also been to Banglamung for accident treatment .If you cant speak Thai memorial probably quicker and good
