Now 82 years old. Drank heavily, smoked cigarettes, led a pretty wild private life up to 10 years ago approx. Nevertheless I have always exercised in the early morning, and still spend about 30 minutes on a treadmill, followed by weights and stretching, and a 20 minute walk in the sunshine ( for vitamin D) at 9.30 am. So far so good...

For sure. This guy is a creep.

Good question.

The way most elephants in captivity are treated in Thailand is a disgrace.

Turbulence means chaos or disorder. Sounds about right.

Another quality visitor....

Thais still react strongly against criticism of Thailand and Thai people. No change there in my opinion.

Very sorry for your loss. I'm surprised your passport has been held because you are involved in a civil case. Maybe you could quickly double check this with your lawyer.

The USA 'justice' system is making America look like a third world banana republic. Sad.

Lighten up.

Would be good to be able to believe that the best candidates are admitted no matter what their race, but I fear the days when that used to be the case are long gone.

PM Annoyed 10,000 Baht Digital Wallet Scheme Stuck With Graft-Busters

'Graft busters' want a slice of the cake. -
Staying at mil's house
Thingamabob replied to mrloy99's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Yes indeed. I did this years ago at my local amphur office in Bangkok. Got my yellow book and, incidentally, a pink ID card at the same time. Both have proven useful. -
The sincerity of those approving a ban on the recreational use of cannabis is highly dubious unless they also ban the recreational consumption of alcohol, and the smoking of cigarettes.

For many years it has been the establishment's policy to bail out debtors thereby rendering the debtors incapable of ever learning how to handle money responsibly, dependent on the govt for help, and for retaining their votes come election time.

Crazy to display valuable items on your person in public. Asking for trouble.

Do ==You== Miss the Zombie Life of Your Youth?
Thingamabob replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Not that bad. Just take things day by day, and try not to dwell on past mistakes. -
Currently 82. I would go for 56. Marginally less stupid then than when I was 36. We oldies get treated better here in Thailand than we do in many of our home countries. I have had no abuse on this forum, and even after the accumulated experience of all the years I have lived here I still find the content informative, helpful and, sometimes, good for a laugh.

This is a waste of time. Trivial beyond belief.

That would make your extension applications unacceptable to immigration at Chaeng Wattana. They insist the account with an 800k deposit must be in the applicant's name only. I have no idea, however, if other immigration offices apply the same ruling

Lighten up for heaven's sake.

Car Blocking the Entrance to my House.
Thingamabob replied to Jumbo1968's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Very inconvenient for you, however the car's removal will involve a negotiation, in Thai. Your wife's concern is understandable. Be careful. Disputes in Thailand on this subject can result in death, as was the case in a recent, widely reported, incident. -
A matter of preference. Fine. But why?
Thingamabob replied to swissie's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Much the same. First marriage to a girl from Scotland. Not good. Second, now for nearly 40 years, to a Thai, has been much better, good friends and a lot of fun.
