Still waiting up here as the storms are going up the Phetchabun valley, not the highlands. At least the temperature dropped a couple of degrees today.

Even if it is a Scottish accent that no one can understand. You are making a goat of yourself..

Well, who would have known there was money in smuggling coconuts.

They used to have 10 every day, now down to 1.3 per day? Me thinks the author is BS.

I see this as a conflict between the Army and the RTP, supplying information to discredit the other, to look after their own interests. The change of government from Army to PT (remember Thaksin ran the RTP) has a few people on their toes. <snip>

The source of the article was the NYT. what would they know about OZ. As has been stated the cost of everything has gone crazy according to friends and family back there. The current housing/rental problems are a direct result of the immigration policy. You cannot have 20000 come into the country every month and not have a problem, it is impossible to build that amount of accommodation.

Sorry mate, I have just been outside and realised it is a full moon. You should be okay tomorrow.

But I don't have a 6ft fence to make me cosy.

Only for novices, if you ask them nicely.

You appear to not have got outside of your 6ft city fence. Must be a cosy world in there

Take a look at the third photo from the OP, and that is after he cut it.

Ok, I have 2 rai of the adjoining land that need clearing as it is a fire hazard. You are welcome to come and clear it at any time, even at Thai rates.

Maybe he will have a heart attack on this one.

Oh to be a city farmer?

We are not talking about grass. The photo that the OP showed is, as I said earlier more like cane and it will not burn even when cut. From your latest photo you are a city farmer, we do not have 6 ft fences out here..

we all know there are some serious idiots on here but he takes the cake. Keep on him.

You are an idiot if you think you can cut that stuff with plastic. The OP still does not have the right blade to cut that stuff, he needs one similar to a circular saw and even then it is difficult. That advice from years of experience As to getting rid of that type, it is like cane, not grass when it grows, all of the roots need to be dug out and there will still be some left that sprout again.

If yo pay 200K you have too much money. There are many that range from 30k to 60K. Just make sure you ask plenty of questions on how many the surgeon does. If he is not doing them weekly find some one else. I have had one go wrong by an inexperienced doctor but the second one was no problem by a doctor that was doing them nearly every day.

You are right with this. The wife is normally happy to display the farang husband but I have been advised to step lightly for the time being.

Yes, used one of those for a couple of years as 3BB would only connect fibre if there were 5 subscribers. Not the best speeds but will be okay for the short time you are there.

Didn't your attention span get you to the last line, or do I need to explain what it meant to you.

That might explain the differences in Lay's over the last year. Originally 50 gm packet for 20 baht then 42 gm for 20 baht then 42 gm for 22 baht now 48 gm for 20 baht Must have realised a 16% reduction in volume plus a 10% price increase was making too much profit.

There are care homes on Samui too. Had friends in one, fairly basic but they were happy, not too expensive but the private hospitals are if you need them.

They need to get a visa to Australia, just advertised $30,000 per year to start.

Sorry but your guess is wrong.
