  1. My bill this month, 160bht for 36 units. Yay for solar and clear skies!
  2. At work they used to say 'cocaine is god's way of telling you that you earn too much' On the other hand, cannabis and alcohol are so cheap, I can't see myself running out of money no matter how much I consume. My income already exceeds my expenses, and I'm getting an 8.5% increase in April!
  3. 1 year in a mason jar. 5 years in vacuum bags in a freezer.
  4. No need to refine opium, it's just the sap from seed pods.
  5. Full face modular helmet that flips up is best of both worlds. Yes, I could put it on and off without removing my glasses. I would have lost my jaw if I'd only been wearing a 3/4 in my crash last month.
  6. Me! I've already grown Critical Orange Punch and Tropical Punch and enjoyed them both.
  7. I didn't specify a location for the mothership crash. It can be an area of Africa if you want.
  8. It's only a theory ...... If you want to believe you are the descendent of monkeys, feel free I prefer to believe I am the descendent of super intelligent aliens that crashed on this planet, then forgot their origins. The evidence for either theory is the same ..... As in NONE.
  9. I came here to find out what cheap hookers are like, and have succeeded beyond my wildest fantasies.
  10. It was really nice when I went a few years back, hiking in Avatar national park, most days I didn't see another person, my guesthouse only had me staying.
  11. It confused me, couldn't tell who was coming from what time, or why they kept killing the different versions of themselves. The time travel sled was clearly ripped off from Timecop.
  12. Private hospitals charge too much. My entire government hospital bill so far is around 8kbht (Inc about 20 x-rays) easily covered by my government minimum m/c insurance that will pay up to 30kbht. I haven't paid them anything, just hand my passport in the payment window on each visit, sign a few papers, and the insurance pays. I really don't understand why everyone insists on using private hospitals, there's no waiting for emergency treatment and the same English speaking doctors usually work both hospital systems.
  13. Was at government hospital yesterday, arrived 8am, 2 x-rays at 8:30, saw doctor at 9:30, and out by 10am.
  14. Not that old, just less optimistic.
  15. I live in a gated community with 250 homes, I'm the only foreigner. None of the Thai women appear to be anything beyond normal. Only 1 looker in the lot, most as dull and shapeless as any middle aged, middle class Brit women. Normal women in any society are overrated IMHO.
  16. =3 bits of bone broken. I have a 'mildly displaced clavicle' = 1 break Don't know if it makes any difference. At the moment my attackers 1st class insurance pays me government minimum wage+ for every day my arm is in a sling until the doctor signs me off (4 weeks until next hospital appointment). If surgery is required, they also pay for that. As my deep muscle injuries (hip and knee) still confine me to my home, I'm in no real hurry to push forward, it's not as if I can go anywhere or do anything. Can't walk more than 20m, drive a car, or a scooter, or ride a bicycle. His insurance already paid out for my wife's m/c repairs (30kbht), and the m/c has been sold.
  17. My advice (but not much use to the OP) ........ Always keep enough money in the bank for a retirement VISA. Never spend more than you can afford on land in another person's name. If your wife has a terminal condition, maybe best to sell the land now and get some of your 'investment' back. A legal fight over inheritance with her relatives may well take longer than the rest of your VISA extension after her death.
  18. I'm paid a pension every month, then i spend it. No need to track anything.
  19. In the west I'd be sitting in a residential care home waiting for an afternoon game of bingo.
  20. I only ever discussed the price with girls in bars, don't think any of them ever had a problem understanding me.
  21. Still housebound, another 4 weeks of arm in sling, doctor says everything healing. Police station next week to discuss action to be taken. Locals are suggesting a few years jail for him, I suspect a weekend pretending to be a monk more likely.
