  1. Sounds like something illegal involved and using intermediary 'mules' to effect the movement of cash in an effort to avoid tracking.
  2. Wait until Thai girls find out it can whiten skin...the mad rush is on
  3. At my age...the biggest challenge will be living the next 5, 10 or even 15 years !
  4. It's a pain but keeping in mind almost all Immigration offices outside of Chaegwattana have no banks on site means most of us have to schedule a bank visit before we head out for our extensions.
  5. Yes but that's because he violated the cockroach's right to privacy by posting his pic without permission
  6. How about cutting a deal with the Red Bull fugitive ? He pays down their debt or some portion of it and gets to walk free. Oh wait...he gets that now with paying anything
  7. The young lady next door to us is dating a local cop. The guy shows up with at least 4 different vehicles on any particular day. He has 2 Isuzu trucks, a little sporty something or other and a big Mercedes with custom wheels that likely cost more than my Suzuki Swift. I feel zero empathy towards these guys
  8. Just don't wait at the new cafe at the foot of Khao Takiab....they want 200 baht for a Coconut Water
  9. Our counter tops are 90 cm which are good for me and no complaints from GF (the ideal height for opening Grab Food orders apparently).
  10. It depends on who you get. A couple of officers were removed after some social network posts detailing some questionable activities. The screeners at the front are quite effective now..you won't get a queue number if your papers are not in order... So if they send you thru you're in good shape. But they do require witnesses from your local Tambon (according to a married neighbor)..he actually pays a Thai neighbor every year to come to the office for her inconvenience.
  11. They are all filled up at the moment You should use one of the phone companies registration sites: For example: https://vaccineforthais.ais.th/Reserve/Login Registration Information: The vaccine to receive will be based on DMS arrangement (SV=Sinovac | SP=Sinopharm | AZ=AstraZeneca | PZ=Pfizer) For Thais, aliens, and foreigners as follows. 1) Age 18 and above Location: Bang-Sue Grand Station, Fashion Island, Asiatique • Group 1: Never been vaccinated: get Dose 1 + Dose 2 • Group 2: Received 2 doses of SV or SP: get Dose 3 Location: Bang-Sue Grand Station • Group 3: Received 2 doses of AZ >90 days: get Dose 3 • Group 4: Received 2 doses of cross-formula (SV/SP + AZ/PZ) >90 days: get Dose 3 2) Age 12 – 17 years old Location: Fashion Island, Asiatique • Never been vaccinated: get Dose 1 + Dose 2 Wait for registration result via SMS within 2 hours 1 Number (any network) / 5 ID Card, Pink Card, or Passport Numbers
  12. Wow...that's even slightly more than a 1 kilometer taxi ride !
  13. Nonthaburi handed back second set this year (October 2021)...last year sent me outside to get second copies....who knows what next year will bring.
  14. That is a contusion (a bruise..or bleeding under the skin)...if it just happened when you bumped your arm then normal...but if it happened without any apparent physical cause your should see a doctor.
  15. Since I use the Kindle app...you would have never seen me read a book either...and BTW whenever i go into a bookstore and ask about English language versions....they smile and say Mai Mi...all the books are in Thai...so someone must be buying and reading them !
  16. That one hour turns into 4 or 5 hours with transit to and from airport, check in, security, etc.
  17. I would buy a place in Hua Hin and during your 6 month stay, rent a nice Villa for a couple of months in Phuket.
  18. I get off easy, a couple of lunches with GF and her Mom per year, usually New Year's Day and Mom's Birthday. Grandmom died last month up in Issan so the one issue (why you have never met my Grandmother ?) is over and done with (with dirt floor housing, no heated showers and toilets in the outhouse ...can anyone wonder why I never wanted to visit ?) (mind you...all of Grandmom's kids are driving 1 million baht plus cars or trucks...but Granny can't have heated showers or indoor plumbing....don't start me).. Anyway...GF's mom is a happy sort, never any issues...runs her own small restaurant in Bangkok...never much trouble from family.
  19. Why doesn't immigration have a way to look up your TM30 records..seems ridiculous
