Air has been clear and clean since the 10th May ....... Lake by my local coffee shop.

Net worth 55M GBP ......... gotta count for something!

Agree, imagining you're something you're not is clearly mental illness. If I told everyone I was an emperor, they'd lock me up!

Doesn't mean anything, doctors do as they are told by their employers.

Just not true, if you take anti biotics for a viral infection, there isn't any harmful bacteria to become resistant , so it will just be ineffective.

They've been pushing this story for the past 20 years, yet here we all are and no sign of the super bugs.

Zenni optical online, $60 (Inc delivery )for progressive lens in titanium frames. Arrive in 10-14 days. Or you can pay 8,000bht in a local shop.

Cooler in Chiang Mai as well, afternoon barely making 35c, and all the pollution gone.

Only 10bh/gm for outdoor. I paid 300bht for this 30gm bag.

30bht/GM is the real price.

Why not just buy another 5kw hybrid and run upstairs on one, and downstairs on the other. Then no worries about different strings on different PV voltages

My 12yo son is as white as can be, with reddish brown hair. Thai people all assumed his Thai mom was the nanny for a western couple. Type O blood, same as me.

Buy 3 or 4 cats ............

Yeah, I managed 3 nights at the family home of 2 different women, and that was hard. Won't even go for 1 night now, she can visit her relly's alone.

Most of the boats have toilets that flush straight onto the coral.

Most places provide suitable clothing ........ usually what looks to me like a karate/judo outfit.

VISA valid until end date, extension valid until reason for extension ends or end date if first.

Would point out 66% of the Thai population don't speak Central Thai as a first language. https://www.babbel.com/en/magazine/what-language-is-spoken-in-thailand#:~:text=Thai is the official language,51 of which are indigenous.

I like the PI, been all over SEA and China, can't say I've seen one place that wasn't 'grungy'. It's what Asia does! Compared to the way I would be living now if back in the UK, and was previously living as a middle class white guy, all paradise. PI has particularly nice beaches compared to Thailand, and much cheaper alcohol. Not to mention almost everyone in PI speaks English.

30bht on the Green San Sai songtaw from the fruit market by the river, up past the bus station through San Sai Noi then on to MaeJo.

Z Library is much better ............ Currently reading 'the Gray Man' thriller series by Matt Greaney Thanks Tim, I'll give The Wager a look.

I have solar electricity ....... fans on cost me nothing. I just felt it was important to become acclimatised to the area/climate in which I live, so I don't use air-con if it's under 36c. I understand a lot of people get used to air-con 24/7, but it's just making you uncomfortable in the long run. My electricity bill is always 200-300bht/month for my 3 bedroom house.

I'm actually fine here, just turned a fan on for the first time today 32c, not too bad at all.

You can't be a blood donor in Thailand if you're over 60yo!

You might be, but I wasn't! Old guys over 65 living in a tropical climate with enough money for beer and a shag are lifes winners. Lets face facts, you only post in this forum to call other white guys losers, where I only see successful retirees....... always look on the bright side of life!
