Me too more or less. Currently 74.05 Kg and 185 cm tall.

It does if you find fat women (or men) repulsive.

There seems to be a huge number of people willing to pay >100 THB for a coffee. Pretty much all the nice coffee shops charge more than that.

I use it to relax myself at the end of the day and get to sleep. Getting stoned is no different to popping some sleeping tablets so that you get really drowsy and fall asleep. I quit drinking almost 3 years ago. Alcohol for me was never a problem, except it cost me a huge of money (into the millions of baht), caused me to lose lots of income opportunities, wasted hundreds of Saturdays and Sundays to hangovers and quite often made me unproductive at work during the week. Weed does none of that.

Scum.

If drugs were legal the world would be a better place.

If I was facing more than a year in a Thai prison then I'd 100% end my own life.

I had loads of one night stands in my 30's and 40's *before* I moved to Thailand. And I can assure you every one of them was a slim and attractive younger woman (No Asians and no hookers!). If you can't get laid after 22 years old there is something wrong with you.

The problem with land crossings is the borders are a long way from Bangkok and the only way to get there is by suicide van. That is why flying is the better option. Also by flying you appear to be someone with money, whereas people doing the van runs are typically doing it that way because it's cheap.

I paid 340 baht for a gram pre-roll in a new dispensary in Udomsuk the other day. Not very impressed with it. Claimed 22% THC but after smoking about 1/3 I wasn't very stoned. When weed was first legalised I paid 900 baht a gram and that was good, but way too expensive to enjoy every day at that price.

RIP Joe. You were a really good guy who helped so many people with your knowledge of the visa system. You will be missed a great deal around here.

My condo is right on Sukhumvit, 2 mins walk to a BTS station. I'm on the 4th floor and cannot hear any road noise. I don't have a balcony and I don't open my windows, what I do have is a really great pool and garden right outside my unit. If I go out to the pool/garden I can hear the traffic and watch the skytrain go past. For me being so close to the BTS and the road is a major plus point as it means I can walk to the BTS and getting a metered taxi is a doddle. No need to ever take those horrible motocy's.

It should be.

You must stay in some quality hotels.

I know several people who carry small dolls, teddy bears or Lego Mini Figs etc and pose them in photos wherever they go. For example - This friend travels all over the world and has "Layah and Shark Dog (Tonto)" who she poses next to food and stuff. Usually with a cute caption.

Link works fine for me.

Because Skiing and Snowboarding is cool; and it's nice to spend some time in the mountains with the cold fresh air.

Drunk morons apparently.

What do you base that on?

I'm 55 too. I moved here for a job in 2008, but have been coming since I was about 7 years old (in 1974). I like living here because Bangkok is a nice big city with all the mod cons (now) and it continues to improve as they modernise it more and more. But if I could move to another country I would. I've got a European GF and we'd both much rather live in the UK, we just can't afford to at the moment. I'm working on a plan to move there in the next 5 years hopefully. I've lived all my life in Asia and I'm sick of living in foreign countries.

I see solar all over the place in Bangkok. Loads of houses have them on their roofs. Bangkok also has some solar powered street lighting.

This is why after 15 years living in Thailand and a total of 50 years living in Asia, I have a European GF.

The casino was hidden in the Asia Hotel in Soi Pratumnak 4 in Pattaya, said police.

Did you bother to research Thailand's solar energy plans or anything? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_power_in_Thailand https://www.pv-magazine.com/2022/10/31/thailand-introduces-fit-scheme-for-solar-storage/

Very few people willing to accept this.
