It was 250 pounds heating + 10 pounds Xmas bonus (paid mid-December). If you live in a house as the only occupant you get 500 pounds heating. -
They sell your house to pay for the care home. But free for those who rent or are homeless.

Not really a Thai dish, all the curries (red, yellow, green) are only really offered in Tourist areas.

Double Charging I know it exists but it is still very annoying.

My woman went to visit relatives for the weekend. Still not free, as she wanted 2,000bht for the bus fares, I gave her 1,000bht. Then big drama at the bus station, they wouldn't let my 12yo kid board the bus without ID. They thought she'd abducted a foreign boy (white skin) and I had to send a copy of his Birth Cert and House book. -

My wife is never free! -
My bills were a little lower than yours (but not by much). I spent 100k and that's 80% of my household electricity usage covered. 9x 340w panels (30kbht), 1x 5kW hybrid inverter (13kbht), 6kWhr of batteries (50kbht). Aircon, shower heaters, kitchen appliances still on the grid. At 5bht/unit that's 20,000 units to generate before I break even. 9 units a day = 2222 days = 6 years. And no power cuts for my house during that time either.

My misses grew all of them (no admission of guilt from me). Out of my her previous grows, Critical Orange Punch was easily the best, very vivid and detailed dreams when you closed your eyes. Amnesia, Red Diesel, White Widow were nowhere near as good. Lemon Kush was rubbish. Now I mainly smoke BubbleGummer and Tropical punch (just harvested 1 of each, currently drying), not gonna bother with Cheeslicious any more (one still growing), very poor cropper, only small flowers. Have some new strains coming along, Blue Dream, KC Brains Bahia Blackhead, Choice, Escape. No idea what they'll be like. -

Agree, more than a year old, was good when fresh but I think I'll end up binning the 2oz I have left. -
Where to get a decent accomodation in CM right now?

Plenty of guesthouses for 6000bht/month. -
I won't be insulted if you give me 10bht.

It's a lot easier, Turn up an get 30 days on entry, extend in 2 month goes, 2nd extension gets you a residents card. Rinse and repeat with a local agent for 3 years then you need to leave the country for 1 night. The 2 month extensions are $50 (ish). Done via local agents, no need to ever see immigration.

They always called me 'Sir' or 'Boss'.

In small village where I'm staying pot is taboo?

Current limit is 20 plants. Thai strains are very slow, I've had 2 crops of Euro seeds before my 1 Thai planting is finished. I won't be planting Thai seeds again. -
You're wrong.
