thanks to a poster I was able to find a far cheaper source with a lot of variety, from 1200 baht for 100g which is the normal brick, 3000 bht for 100g and some of the more exotic stuff at 2000 baht for 10g so the market is getting better.

Here is an example of a 100g block of buds offered for 1200 baht on FB, coming from Issan.

 

I don't know what the THC content is, but only just a pinch in a tea before bed, enables my ill wife to sleep without pain. A godsend.

 

I expect the prices to come down a lot more from here as it will become grown nearly in every home. Everything eventually approaches the marginal cost of production, unless supply is restricted.

 

 

i tried to find the link the guy kindly sent to me but didnt find anything,  Shame as its what I like and the price is very good

the problem with fools like this is that they think other people are like them.  The problem with Thailand is that nobody tells them straight, you are a fool noone will listen too

Damn, people in Scotland even laugh at reincarnation. I used to too, until I was hypnotically regressed on a show with Uri Geller. 

Uri Geller was a fraud, proven over and over again.  Stage hypnotism is no proof of anything other than a weak mind easily influenced by frauds.

My Mrs is OK in the truck, but I don't watch what is going on because it puts me on edge. 

Aye, you are doing what most of us do here after a prolonged stay, eyes wide shut and hope for the best

You need to be extremely careful about how you word these comments, especially if the police become involved, as what you have said so far falls under the definition of blackmail, contrary to Section 338 of the Thai Criminal Code:

 

Whoever compels another person to give or to agree to give any person a benefit in the nature of property by threatening to disclose a secret, to cause injury to any person, or make the compelled person submit to the same, such person commits blackmail and shall be imprisoned from one year to ten years and fined from two thousand Baht to twenty thousand Baht.

 

At the minute you have said that you are compelling your ex-wife to give you the benefit of living in a house she owns and that if she does not do so you will disclose a secret and compromising video of her by selling the video for money.

 

I understand that you are very stressed at the minute and you undoubtedly misspoke and worded your comment in a way that you did not intend to.

 

As such, please take my comments as friendly advice and consider the situation carefully for the future.

 

Consider that a "sin" is not necessarily a criminal act, and even if it is you can still be guilty of blackmail in the manner I outlined above.

 

Finally, note that the punishment for blackmail starts with one year of imprisonment and rapidly increases.

 

Depriving an owner of assets such as a land and a house or the money they would receive from selling such property would make a case of significant monetary value, which would inevitably increase any sentence awarded by the Court.

This is why I would like the moderator to now close the thread but my foggy mind cannot work out how to do it.  Its great advice though

Same same my friend. Morally in your mind you bought and paid for it and it's yours...but in the eyes of Thai law legally it is 100% hers. Unless you were legally married when you bought said land and home, then you are entitled to half the proceeds of the sale. If the land is in her parents / sisters name you have no claim whatsoever. Is isn't and has never been your land and home

I was legally married and you are right, upon sale of the property she is entitled to 50 per cent of the sale unless she chooses to waive that right an signs accordingly.

How could you be "forced to sell" property that your wife owns?   It's not yours to sell.

in the event of divorce you have to sell the property and split it 50/50.  This is my only home and I have no family back in the UK.

Ok, so the house and land are both in her name, just as you originally stated and what you described as my "assumption" wasn't an assumption, it was an accurate reading of your post.   Thanks for the clarification, hope you get the advice that you need.

Yes, it was my mistake and ii have offered my apologies.  Thank you for taking the time

"Im from liverpool too..."

What makes you think that I'm from Liverpool, never mind the same one as you?

 

There are some anomalies in your thread that don't easily add up, such as the ownership of her land and house that makes giving accurate advice difficult so don't be giving me down the banks for asking about them on a forum that invites discussion.     

Sorry Liverpool Lou didnt mean to offend.  Im Liverpool Merseyside btw

Thank you to all the posters for your time and advice.  I think I am a little more clued in now.  Moderators please feel free to close this thread

So you have video's on your computer that display criminal behaviour.

 

If those vids are of a sexual nature the BiB may very well bend you over.

 

 

I did and now I dont and will deny all knowledge until I receive counsel or wise advice which has been forthcoming on a pm from another poster,

You posted this earlier..."my home and the land is in her name".    How have you mangaed to get your name, not hers, on the land and the home docs, then, if your previous post is not correct?

It is my home, I built it and paid for it from my earnings whilst married to my wife.  But instead of putting my name on the house andhers on the land, she went and put it all in her name and tried to assume control when our marriage went pear shaped.  Sorry for the lack of info but I havent slept and maybe have confused you in the process.

In short, what he wants is to be separated, live in her property but not allow her access to her house and land.

No your assumption is wide of the mark.  I bought and paid for my home, it was ours, not hers but she fandangled her way to trying to assume control of everything.  I prevented her from doing so with the video evidence against her and had lived happily alone until I met my ex gf who now poses a danger to the status quo.

So what's on this video? plenty of thai amateur porn online no big deal

I do not want to divulge such sensitive information but it is morally repugnant and criminal behaviour.  I will leave you to read between the lines

To be fair, you were asking for trouble allowing your new gf to access your tablet/computer, trawl your data. My women doesn't get to see anything I have.

 

As for what she's seen, delete it, or move it, and if the question ever arises deny it ever existed and stick to that story.

 

No evidence = no crime.

Im a fool for not hiding my password better from my gf but she was always insecure and I wanted her to see that I was not chatting to other women as she always suspected.  I have taken the precaution of moving all evidence to a safer place and wil deny any knowledge of it if push comes to shove because it was only ever meant to be leverage against my wife and her greedy family

In short you want to stay married and keep the property but not have her around. Not sure if that can be done as as long as your married she has the right to get in the shared house. 

You are right but she knows the video evidence against her and ran away back to Bangkok 2 years ago.  The last time we communicated she said I could stay in the house for as long as I lived providing I did not seek her prosecution, its was a sordid status quo that worked well enough for me and I have had no dealings with her whatsoever.  Now its the ex gf who is making threats knowing that if she tells the police they will come and arrest me first and seek the evidence, which no longer resides on Google.

If the sin of your wife is of explicit nature you can be in trouble for having that on your google drive. Besides that i don't seen many problems.

it is of explicit nature and will result in the arrest of my ex wife.  You may well ask why I have not used it and my answer is simply this, my home and the land is in her name and by seeking divorce I would be forced to sell it.  I instead chose to keep it as leverage and keep the wolves at bay
