  1. Ha...typical. prob has to do with more "upgrades" and "streamlining". ๐Ÿ˜†
  2. Right on...Thai ADULT males includedโ—Just to be clear๐Ÿคฃ
  3. Yep probably so...but was erring on the side of caution. ๐Ÿ‘
  4. Give it time and it will...once you've been here more than a few minutes.
  5. Yep very common and extremely rude. A very Chinese thing and WAY worse there, but inconsiderate and ignorant Thais do it frequently too. Japanese...never. As @stoner said...I (usually) look directly at them and tell them nicely but assertively, that the queue is behind me. Common courtesy isn't a thing here. Most "FRussians" haven't any either.
  6. People also ask How much is a brand new Bentley convertible? From เธฟ9 million and up, up, up Bentley Car Price List | Holman Motorcars 2023 Bentley Continental GT Convertible: Estimated at $230,000usd starting MSRP. 2023
  7. Oh Boy...here we goโ—Should just leave well enough alone as it was simple already and worked perfectly. "Upgrading" and "streamline" usually have the exact opposite effect here in Tie-LAN. I'm laying 3-1 odds that it's now a fustercluck. ๐Ÿคฃ
  8. Painful as hell. Got stung in the Caribbean 36 years ago by an unknown type. Left an oval shaped welt and scar on my upper arm. Nothing that more 151 rum coladas ๐Ÿน couldn't remedyโ— This is much worse than my experience. Glad she's ok.
  9. What a truck load of ๐ŸŽ ๐Ÿ’ฉ and my gf totally buys into itโ— Most Thais do. ๐Ÿคฃ
  10. Recently made a Thai Will with a reputable law firm in Pattaya. In both English and Thai. 3 copies...one retained by the firm and the other 2 for us. It specifically states that my Thai bank account, SUV, electronic devices and optics + all other assets are to go to my gf, including any purchased henceforth. She is to contact our lawyer ASAP, after the pertinent local authorities, and they will assist with the process of executing the Will (probably for an additional fee, but that's OK, as she'll need the help). It cost B10,000 and well worth it for piece of mind knowing she has the proper legal documentation and assistance. Have seen others firms as low as B7500, but was impressed with the professionalism of this firm. Had previously downloaded a DIY Thai/English will and had it all done with 2 witnesses about 2 years ago, but decided that may run into legal entanglements.
  11. Haโ—Right on...not to forget the "Rain Planes" when the rain-dance and praying-for-rain failedโ—๐Ÿคฃ
  12. Give it another month and Thailand will be aglow too.
  13. Yes good info...thx. But so will be Thailand soon enough, just like every previous year...and next year...and year after that.
  14. Stop the burnโ—๐Ÿ”ฅ Much of the problem solved. Only getting much worse next month.
  15. If only he was sincere... Lip service is all this is.
  16. I would describe them as ME...covered or "un". And seemingly not alone hereโ—๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿคฃ
  17. On "your" poleโ—โ“ ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿคฃ
  18. True enough 30, 20, even 15 years ago...when Thailand didn't try to fool itself and others about who and what it/they truly are. Back then it was all smiles and 'we know and we know you know', so "mai pen rai", "sabai sabai" , "jai yen" and live and let live. Things were cool and easy. Now the place is worse than ever, yet it lies and pretends with charades and delusions, fooling no one but themselves. Things are more difficult for us, as well as majority of the Thai population. The elites are on a mighty high-horse, above any law or order...of which there has never been much...except now they rule with absolute power over their minions, expat residents and tourists...while running more wildly amok than ever.
  19. Yes, that works fine in most cases. Formerly did that very thing. 4mbps and higher works fine, even for downloading large file tho may take longer. Streaming may be a problem. Give it a try. Can always get the home internet service back if this proves unsuitable.
  20. Yes, you will be given a new 30 day visa exempt entry stamp.
  21. LOS...Land of Shams, Scams and Shenanigans 'Nuff said ๐Ÿคฎ
  22. As long as the performance is good and serves the purpose... absolutely yes, I would use them.
