  1. A lot of the small places don't list on the big sites because it costs them money. I stayed at one resort by Sam Phan Bok. They were listed on booking.com, etc. but I got a better price when I called them. The major chain hotels seem to be the ones that you get a better rate online compared to going direct with them.
  2. Make sure the power is turned off first. Double check it with a meter. I admit I sometimes work on wall outlets without turning the power off first but it not a smart thing to do.
  3. A few cans of that rubber leak seal stuff and they should be good to go. I wonder if they pumped the water out of the pontoons before repairing them....
  4. Roof leaks can be hard to find. The water can travel down the inside of the roof before it starts hitting your ceiling. Perhaps get someone to paint the roof with a waterseal product if you don't want to replace the roof. Make sure it cleaned very good first. Homepro Roof Seal products.
  5. Better option would have been to get a divorce first. But perhaps they still have plans of reconciliation.
  6. The linked article says the police think she may have been sleeping while driving the motorcycle.
  7. rove beetle? See what their bites look like compared to yours.
  8. Lot's of common thai's loved Taksin and that didn't save him.
  9. Paying 5 million baht to get rid of 800K debt is not the brightest thing to do.
  10. How about the Foremost milk in Cartons that are kept out of refrigeration. Ultra pasteurized milk. In a pinch anyways.
  11. Obviously a CIA operative using this story as a cover to infiltrate North Korea.
  12. It's probably to protect the news company from Thailands crazy defamation laws.
  13. If it's his first 90 day report it may not work online. But his languages is not clear on exactly what the 90 day thing is. Is it a 90 permission to stay or is he talking about a 90 day report? He should have got a new passport well ahead of time knowing all the stuff coming up. If his old passport was expiring they wouldn't have given a full year permission to stay anyway. Last year I renewed my passport about 11 months early knowing that if I didn't my next annual extension would have been less than a year.
  14. I know that places like Powerbuy you will find cheaper prices ordering it online from them than in the store.
  15. I almost never give money to people asking/begging for it. But when I see someone I think needs help but isn't asking for it I will help them. Like when I see elderly people pushing carts around the roads looking for bottles and such to sell. I'll pull over and give them some money.
  16. Open a Schwab one international account, you have to deposit $25,000 or the equivilant in stock to open one. That's what I use. I have sent $200,000 at a time using it. There is a $15 fee but they instantly rebate mine back. So the wire is free. I have never had to explain where the money came from. My bank here, SCB, calls me on transfers over $20,000. They only want to know if it is for personal use or to purchase property.
  17. Don't forget to add the shipping and customs fees if you want to use it in Thailand.
  18. There is a link button on the top bar when making a post. You can click it and copy the link into the top section and on the bottom section type in what you want to show in the post. Cleans it up quite a bit.
  19. HomePro mop buckets
  20. There are some account types now that don't have a bank book any more. Like the account the original poster asked about. He's asking if immigration will accept an account that does not have a bank book.
  21. She probably started out using the fake plates to avoid paying vehicle registration fees.
  22. Same here
  23. Lawn Tractors | Homepro Online MTD รถตัดหญ้านั่งขับ รุ่น 13B1765F351 500/38 |GlobalHouse
  24. When Prawit is nominated I bet all the senators show up to vote.
  25. You have to read the linked article for the full story and to understand the photo.
