  1. Except that when it rains you can't use the 800k, without losing your visa.
  2. We did our homework and understand the rules, but that does not make it fair. Why should someone living in say Minnesota USA get an uplift but someone living 10 miles across the border in Canada not get it?
  3. Sure the Thai Government don't care about exchange rates but expats do. When i set up my original 800k it cost me 11,250 GBP. Now it would cost 18,200 GBP. A rise to 1.2m baht would cost 27,300 GBP.
  4. The problem is that the 800k was set when the GBP was 70+, with the GBP at 44 the 800k is really now 1.3m.
  5. DOM, Pratamnack Soi 5, would be my choice as the best. Also try Hemmingways for their Pizza night, Monday i think, 199 baht any pizza.
  6. Plus for us Brits you get pension inflation increases. Quite a bit now with 10.1% inflation, 7% next year?
  7. Yes fairly obvious it's an excuse. Why bring in a new requirement which affects tens of thousands of legal expats to crack down on a handful of bikers.
  8. Will he be banned like Pita? thought not.
  9. "enhance walking street" ha ha it's ruined it.
  10. Wait till 8/8 some good deals on LG/Samsung. Avoid the CCP's TCL.
  11. I spent a pleasant few hours in a bar in Central Chiang Rai watching the clock tower change colour. The white temple is a must see in CR. The best in Thailand.
  12. Surprised they let a customer come in the shop wearing a full face helmet.
  13. Not the renters fault, deport and ban the Kuwaitis. Problem solved.
  14. It's the skid row of Pattaya. If i had worked all my life and ended up there i would top myself.
  15. No one really cares. Even the Thais when their election choice is overturned.
  16. These were never going to work. Unless Thais can park with 6 feet of the beach they are not interested. Why Jomtien is so busy now.
  17. They "said" it was a cappuccino, yeah right.
  18. It will never happen but makes you mad when you see how the Government just throws money away. Buffoon Bailey's QE experiment will cost 150 BILLION.
  19. I wonder what they do with it? You never see meat on sale near its sell by date. The Soi dogs must dine well.
  20. Surely at any point in history there were a number of bars/a gogos for sale.
  21. I was there 4 months ago and it was already a little Moscow. Last time i will be going to Phuket.
  22. Yes being alone is great but what about when you get in your 70s, 80s, 90s? Having a dependable younger partner is great as well, especially in a country where you might not speak the language.
  23. Depends if that includes mortgage debt. If it does then it's not a big figure. One years average salary?
  24. Looks like that was a very smart move. An EV caught fire on a ferry yesterday in the North Sea. The ferry was carrying 3000 cars (ony 25 EVs). Looks like all the cars and probably the ferry will be destroyed, plus sadly one death and several injuries. Insurance cost of that @ $100 million? The insurance industry will probably ban them all.
