  1. Depends on how much money he has left to spend.
  2. A lot of Thai bank debit cards are blocked for international payments by default nowadays. You have to go into the bank app and change it. Could that be the problem?
  3. Tong Sia.... What a buffon. Ask for a bathroom for crying out loud.
  4. It's a lot harder to have fatalities on the big expressways when traffic is moving at about 20K/H.
  5. It should be fairly easy for the police to find whos account the money went to. oh well....
  6. Do you live in Burma? 🙂 Chombueng, Ratchaburi. About an hours drive to the Myanmar border though. Immigration office in Ratchaburi is 90% for Burmese.
  7. If you change insurance companies, they usually want photos of the vehicle. Not for renewals though.
  8. Silly of her to post a photo of him without the fake neck brace.
  9. They do look similar to mealybugs but these are different.
  10. The teens noticing the woman was drunk attempted to possibly save her life by preventing her from driving her motorbike while intoxicated.
  11. Allulose is a natural sugar that our bodies can't break down. It's a lot more expensive than cane sugar though. Not quite as sweet as cane sugar either, about 70% as sweet. There is also Monk fruit sugar, expensive too. You can find both on lazada.
  12. You might want to take fish sauce off that list. I started looking at labels for fish sauce. The lowest I found was 1% sugar. All the way up to 6% sugar. I just try to avoid sugar, rice, bread, potatoes as much as possible. Also Sriracha sauce is like 17% sugar. Try not to eat highly processed foods.
  13. What's amazing is when the big rig went across the median no hit him on the other side. I've had people driving like that around me. I swear 4-5 times they missed hitting me by about 5cm or less. Fortunately it is a small percentage of drivers that drive like that otherwise the death tolls here would be astronomical.
  14. About 9 years ago I was staying at a small resort run by an Aussie in Kalasin. It was during Songkhran and they were having a festival. We were the only two foreigners there both married to Thais. They had music blaring. During this one song I told him, "Do you know this song is about Issan men being upset because foreigners are taking their women?" But anyway all the people there were very friendly. One time we were shopping at Makro and I heard two women talking to each other say, "His wife is old." I guess they are used to seeing lots of foreigners with wifes way younger than them. I'm sure a lot of them automatically assume they were hookers too. But most people my wife meets here thinks she was a professor. I guess because of how she dresses. I always worried when walking around with some of our neices and nephews holding hands that people would think I was a child molester.
  15. A lot of trouble over 1,000 baht. I feel sorry for his wife. She must have to put up with a lot of hell. His wife said he had 6 bottles of beer and was very drunk. Plus if she had some drinks the bill is not that bad.
  16. I think 'change my' was supposed to be 'Chiang Mai'. Probably got changed by spell checker without him noticing.
  17. Good advice does not apply here. Those who think they have the 'right of way' are in for a rude awaking here. When driving you have to anticipate people doing the unexpected here.
