The bank statement only needs to be 3 months so can be done on the spot.

You need a bank statement as well as the bank letter up here, both done on the same day. Maybe you are confused.

My wife gets upset with me always complaining about the way many Thais drive. We have just come back from Australia and I have promised not to complain any more about the stupid things Thais do because there were so many stupid drivers in Australia.

An MRI will show how bad it is. The OP never mentioned having an MRI to determine the extent.

Surgery should be a last resort (from someone that has had it done). It can be healed naturally, if careful, and a bit of physio and massage as was my second case of it.

Haven't we heard of something similar at another resort with the same type of buildings. Wonder if the resort was profitable in these times.

You have to do all of that to stop something you did not ask for? Apart from that I do not normally use the phone for internet but need to download a government app from Google play store. Would not download it to my phone (did not recognise it as one of my devices) and now won't let me log in.

It would be with TAT. No other tourists.

Do people still use Google?

Agree with the second part of your post (the first part is too deep for me). My Thai family do believe in them, with one daughter absolutely terrified. I just keep telling them that they cannot harm you, unless your fear does something for you harm yourself.

Neither have you, outside your expert area,

So you are an expert for CW only. Keep your advice to that IO.

If you look at the post quoted, may be too difficult for you, it was Phetchabun.

Education would help if they wanted to help themselves. Have worked in communities where the teachers have done their best with the kids, in very difficult circumstances. Some have worked but mostly not. When working in a dry community where we had to fly in, there was always someone that wanted a seat on the plane back to Darwin to get on the grog, paid by the Government credit card. Not every one, some tried to continue their tribal lifestyle, but very disturbing.

No, see above post.

Mate, went there today for a Thai wife extension, and not like last year where we had to hand write 2 x TM7. They do not trust you to get it correct. They send you to another counter where someone will write it out, by their hand, from what they have on the computer. For a fee, of course. But you cannot sign anything until you are directed by the IMO. So it changes every year and the new office seemed to be under staffed.

Easy, if he is like me he is not that important to the world to be in touch every second.

BS, all of us are not children that do what they care told.

I would like to get my hands on a 1:4000 map of our local area. Wonder if they are available.

Dealing with them.

True as an organisation is hopeless. Maybe Dtac will improve them.

but I am not American

Well this will be interesting as my Thai wife and I will be flying out in February and returning in March. I have been living here permanently for 10 years without any insurance. So my wife will be okay but what will they require me to do.

Last year we bought an EVE electric oven, MEX gas cooktop (Smeg's cheap brand) and a GRACE range hood, all in the moderate price range. Happy with the first two but the range hood is too noisy even on a low setting. They were bought for specific features that we wanted so no special recommendation verses other brands.

They are probably oil based paints.
