Owner of mansion in Thailand angered at rumours it’s haunted
ubonr1971 replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
Theres a house in my province with similar reputation. Its actually prime land but has an old house on it. Ages ago a village guy said he saw a ghost near a tree and someone was killed there blah blah. Probably too much grog. Now the owner cannot sell it for many years. I thought about buying it and knocking it down and building a new house but the wife would not let me... -
Im on an ext of stay based on marriage and I luckily remembered to put 400k in 2 months prior. I deposited it to my account on the 2nd march. So it means that I can go on Monday 1st May to apply for another yrs visa (I think) The stamp on my Work permit says 'must be extended before 8th May'. Can I go on Monday 8th May to renew this ie the day of expiry? My wife gets Mondays off and unsure if we can do both jobs on Monday 1st may thanks

Are there any 'normal' farangs living in Thailand?
ubonr1971 replied to bob smith's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Why would anyone move here with a Thai wife?? You can get stunning thai girl half your age with no 'entitled' westerner attitude. -
I recently drove through the countryside shown in the photos. I suspect many expats living in the LOS have not visited this particular area. Its obviously an agricultural area where crops grown include corn, raspberries, bananas etc. I will award the winner who names the area and/or closest small city. PM me your bitcoin receive address. The first photo is a giveaway. cheers

Thanks for your comments. I will 100% be putting in insulation bats and the thin silver insulation that is positioned close to the roof tiles. Would you be able to look at the new plan attached and give any suggestions. On the master bathroom I want to put a bath tub, sink and toilet. In between the other 2 rooms a shower room with sink and separate toilet Kitchen outside the rear area on the back verandah. Do you think thats a good idea Another guy on this thread discussed positions of the columns. Will my room plan work ok in this regard? thanks

After reading your comment I decided to put the kitchen out the back area on the rear verandah. It will give me more space inside the house. Do you think this idea will work? I dont understand your last comment actually. All bathrooms have drains in the floor. What do you mean exactly? Looking at the plan, where should the onsite septic system be positioned?

You raised a valid point above. I dont have any building knowledge and thus appreciate your opinion in this regard. Below is an updated drawing of my proposed 3 b/r and 2 bathroom. Actually in the master bedroom I want an ensuite bathroom with bath tub. In the middle of the other 2 rooms is a small toilet room and shower bathroom with sink inside. Also I want to put the kitchen outside next to the back verandah My drawing is evidently not to scale. Are you able to take a look at it and estimate the room sizes based on your comment above re concrete column positions. I have no idea about this actually. Thanks if your able to help me design this properly

So if we get this breed what do we do if we go away on holidays. Normally we arrange someone to feed and walk. But it sounds like this will not be possible unless the dog knows this person. And if relatives come to stay do we have to lock it up in a caged area? I like the sound of this breed but a few issues are presented

Australian Resort Boss Murdered While at Work in Krabi

Probably true what you say about a bar business. We dont have a bar. Our business has around 35% to 40 % expenses every month. Thats it. -
We purchased a small plot of land 60m x 18.3m. Its kind of a long / narrow block. In the photo of the land, the concrete on the left is a small soi which leads to a dead end (neighbours land- no access at all). On the right side is rice field view. To the left is mountain view We were recently having a beach holiday and I saw a nice house that I might copy. I dont know if its possible but might have the same entry steps with the 3 arches at either end- as depicted on my sketch design. Carport at one end and pool area at the other. I asked the owner of the blue house about the structure and its basically a concrete house with that weather board screwed in- to kind of give it a american vintage house look. With the size of the house being proposed at 20m x 14m do you think I can manage 3 small bedroom and 2 bath rooms, kitchen and lounge area? If so how would you design it? Where would you put the lounge area and kitchen?. The water pipes will run along the side of the rice field fence all the way to the water tanks. Thanks for your help with this. Just trying to get ideas.
