  1. I was thinking the same thing. I have a Iphone 4s which works perfectly for everything

    I want to do. Very easy to do everything one handed, and of course it fits perfect

    into my pocket. Stopped by the Apple store today to look at the 6 and 6+. Did not

    like them at all, way too big. Apparently Apple came to the same conclusion.......

    Plus there is something fundamentally wrong with paying close to a 1000 dollars

    for an electronic device that will be an antique in three years, and that you will give

    to your kid....

    Your antique iPhone 4s is three years old and is still serving you well... Money well spent I would say...

  2. They are just passing on the cost (that your bank charged them) for the convince of using plastic... It happens in the US also...

    But more polite for a business to give a 3% discount for cash ;-)...

  3. I dunno why everyone here is crapping on Russian tourists. Every time I went for a vacation in pattaya most of them behave just fine, treat somewhat annoying beach vendors with respect and generally take tour packages in groups unlike Westerners who suddenly count every penny as soon as they leave the motherland. What am I missing? An occasional basket case?

    I enjoy their company on the beach also... As a 100+ kilo American they make me look downright skinny!

  4. Why can't immigration here do the same as Chiang Rai immigration before they opened new facilities... Have a outreach annex in on of the malls one day a week for expatriate services like 90 day reporting and extensions... I'm sure any of the malls would provide space free of charge (KSK could provide a whole floor if needed!)...

  5. You might consider popping the doors off their hinges and taking them to one of the teak furniture stores in Baantawai and have then sand and stain... You are likely to get more takers to do the work and the mess will be at their shop and not in your house...

  6. The website seems to be for Bangkok?... Where is the link for auctions in Chiang Mai?...

    Can someone describe the process?... How does one make a bid? if you win how much time do you have to make payment?... Will they handle registering the car in your name?

  7. Buy a couple spare tire tubes that fit your bikes tire... You may get a flat out in the middle of nowhere and the locals may not have the exact tube to fix it for you...
