  1. Monsoon Valley Winery outside of Hua Hin is decent for a local winery. My GF likes their whites.
  2. I buy monthly at least a case or two to keep my wine refrigerator stocked. The wines I buy now are mainly Shiraz or a good gravity Cabernet. I have a few Bordeaux but they are for special occasions. I miss ordering on-line and having it delivered to the condo. Life is good with a nice glass of wine.
  3. and after they yell the phrase they wink after you smile and yell back Kaaaa-Chingggg while pulling there arm in the movement of a slot machine pull....lovely.
  4. probably counting the ATK tests which are not included in true statistical counts.
  5. The truth sometimes is not what is found in google but in real life....you believe what you want, I know what I saw and witnessed. It disturbed me greatly to see the family picking through the ashes to find the large knuckles and the teeth, which they all placed in small boxes and kept for posterity........maybe the lady I saw selling the gold teeth had them pulled and received them prior to cremation, however what I saw in person after a funeral pyre tells me differently.
  6. That once again is if a crematorium is used.....try again.
  7. Bone fragments such as knuckles and teeth are often found when they burn the body in a casket outside of a crematorium. I have photos from attending such a funeral in a small village in Sakhon Nakhon for my ex-wifes aunt who died. They built a pyre of branches, put the casket on top, then the family walked around in a circle pouring oil from coconut shells onto the branches and casket. The eldest son nicknamed "Bird" then lit a torch and started the pyre. While the fire roared to life they lit off fire works and threw candy and small coins into the air for those who were in attendance. The next morning we returned to where the pyre had been, behind the small temple, and the family sorted through the ashes, picking up fragments which also included the gold teeth. Try again. You obviously have never attended such a family funeral.
  8. Maybe I should have taken a photo my friend. Your barking up a tree that has real leaves on it. Next time I will take a photo for you since you are always a true sceptic and call BS on things that are real. Just because you did not see it you call BS.....
  9. So what to do with the gold from the teeth after the body is cremated? Do they give it to the monk, or go and cash it in after melting it. of course they keep it, I watched an old lady take the gold teeth to the gold shop and after they rinsed them off they weighed the gold and cashed her out....
  10. After I sent the e-mail, I returned to the LTR pages and at the bottom of where it shows the 4 steps I submitted a request which asked for the BOI to confirm they received my e-mail. I then received a response back indicating what I had posted above. For some reason when I go to the form response it now shows me this:
  11. It still does not make it legal, but never the less the possibly Intoxicated driver should he held responsible if he caused the accident.
  12. It was sent it by email to the BOI who will review it all. They are the Government arm who is charged with approving or denying the Visa. I am in Thailand already and the BOI office is here in Bangkok.
  13. Your sure about that? I do not see it on the information as a possibility unless your already employed, but then TIT. If it is doable I might as well see.
  14. She even was given flowers to make the final amends, how nice. She should have had them krap down and wai her as well as being given a fruit basket.....
  15. Zero in the bed unless it is a Subaru brat which has 2 seats and belts
  16. More restrictive, they are asking to keep it as is, if that's asking for it to be restrictive your brain has been addled.
  17. I am not sure this will quietly go away. Even if they make Trump a generous offer, he will ensure he splashes and bandies it about. He never has believed in doing anything quietly even NDI's...look at his dealings with Stormy.
  18. I will, they said it could take up to 20 days to review the paperwork and let me know if I was approved on the pre-screening. I submitted all of the required documents except for the photo, and of course an original signed letter for my HI from PCH which they will complete for me once approved. In the BOI LTR information it indicates these can be turned in after the initial approval has been given. I did give them all of the information on my HI in my E-mail.
  19. You truly believe that we resemble Willie in age.....wow, I need to grow up real quick to get to 89 y.o.a. 32 years in a day should do it....Most people are younger than what you posted.
  20. Maybe because I read this article and many others which were similar at the time https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/apr/05/thailand-dreams-of-high-end-cannabis-tourism-after-marijuana-is-legalised Authorities are also exploring the idea of a “cannabis sandbox” that would allow tourists to visit the country while recreationally using cannabis in select areas, to help create destinations synonymous with the drug, according to local media. At the time of campaigning in 2019, Charnvirakul said that the legalisation would be “a win-win situation for the Thai people because they will grow the plant and it will benefit the economy”.
  21. Why is it then that it is always the locals who are caught drinking late in the evening in closed places and then fighting each other while causing chaos, even causing death. Your view is very narrow, how much news do you nit read or watch and do you understand and speak the Thai language. Many hard working Thais I know and do things with oppose this measure.
  22. Get back to us when you see the trees have been cleaved in the forest your walking through and your belief system in the Donald has been eviscerated
