  1. I did enjoy Derek's contribution and he'll surely be missed. RIP Fellow Biker
  2. If you say so... Just 3 questions (for the first 2 , I did/do...): 1. Did/do you use any Savile Row' s tailor? 2. Did/do you use BKK tailors such as Tailor on Ten? 3. Did you talk to every single expat based in Bangkok?
  3. Please compare "like for like"... A good bespoke shirt made in London (Savile Row) will cost you a minimum of GBP 200 = THB 8,900. While a nice bespoke shirt from a good tailor in Bangkok (e.g.: Tailor on Ten) will cost you THB 2,800... Same kind of difference for suits... I live and work in Bangkok. For business use (suits, shirts), I go for bespoke. For something more casual, I go for the "off the shelves" (Levi's, M & S, Uniqlo, etc.)
  4. Full Yamaha Service History... Meaning, every year the dealer did put its record (with the mileage) on the Yamaha warranty handbook + I kept all the dealer invoices
  5. Question for the Scooter Experts What could be the value of a 2016 Yamaha Nmax (Feb 2016, mileage 2,300 km, full Yamaha Service History)? Thanks!
  6. Evernote does the job very well... Evernote Web SIte
  7. I was, for a number of years, a very happy AXA customer (premium travel insurance) until I had to make claim... Making the story short, my claim (flight rerouted, flight delays, luggage damaged, items stolen from luggage) took ages to be processed (more than a year) and the “compensation” represented less of 10% of what I was supposed (according to the T&C) to get…
  8. My original reply had two parts: 1. Link 2. Article The JPEG below shows you these 2 (two) parts... If you find the JPEG too small, you can click on it (with your mouse, I meant your computer mouse, of course !)
  9. I put a link (= internet link to a website article) AND I extracted a part of the article for your convenience... Obviously, you didn't read it... Hopeless...
  10. I didn't write that you insist... It's part of the article I took the pain to copy for you... That'll teach me trying to share knowledge with some people... Hopeless !
  11. Tubed vs Tubeless Tyres Can you put a tube in a tubeless tire? If you insist on running a tube in a tubeless tire, the general rule of thumb is to treat the setup as one load rating and one speed rating less than the tubeless tire says it can handle. That's mainly because your tube and tire combination will be creating extra heat, especially the harder you ride.
  12. from brianthainess: "it was a simple question"... from brianthainess "Since when do PP have your address in them? place you were born yes but your address ? " 1. My passport is issued from a country part of the EU, 2. My citizenship is not your business, 3. Are you part of any "authority" I should be aware of? 4. The "sneering part" wasn't from me (cf. brianthainess posts), 5. Calling other people BS is "awesome"... it does show your level
  13. "it was a simple question"... "Since when do PP have your address in them? place you were born yes but your address ? " So... that's what you call a simple question?!? Pathetic, really!
  14. For a very long time, my passports have my address in them... Really sorry for the inconvenience! Please get out and explore the world, a little bit!
  15. OP, are you talking about AIS Fiber or AIS 4G or AIS 5G?
  16. Similar problem here: I downloaded the SCB Easy app, then, when I tried to get registered my “credentials” (Passport Details and Date of Birth) were rejected. I did try several times. I didn't have this kind of issues when I installed the Bangkok Bank app...

    New laptop

    Last year, I bought a Lenovo ThinkPad X13 from Lenovo Thailand Web Site Fully customisable, delivered in less than 2 weeks I chose the processor (AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850U), the RAM (16 GB), the disk (1 TB SSD), etc. My previous laptop is a X230 (another ThinkPad) bought in Hong Kong in 2012 and still running !
  18. Almost everything's manageable and customisable on Android. You should have a look @ some Youtube vids et visit this website: XDA Security advice: never ever leave someone "touching" your smartphone, especially when you've some banking apps installed on it...
  19. I always have a bag with me... Either 1) a leather briefcase (Tumi) for business meetings or 2) a 25-liter black backpack for the more casual walks
  20. What sad news! So many words, so many thanks already. What could I add? I discovered and appreciated this website thanks to him. He made my first extension much easier and kept updating this all important information. Behind the given information, there was a man. A man I regret not having been able to meet... RIP Joe
  21. The title was: Best Starting Salary for University grads... And my answer was in line with the question... "Life, and work, in Thailand could be sweet IF you got some skills (skills: the ability to do something well) Examples: fluency in 3 languages (Thai incl.) + Enginering Degree (Local) + Master Degree (International) fluency in 3 languages (Thai incl.) + Law Degree (Local) + Post Graduate Degree (International)"
