  1. Was the danger sign in the universal language? Which is not Thai. Glad no injuries or deaths in the rescue. Surprised no name and pictures with finger pointing.
  2. We know what type you like!
  3. I don't think in 2023 time frame it's fair to think a prenup portrays a lack of trust. It's just plain smart. 50% end in divorce. Do you bet it all on the roulette wheel. Red or black?
  4. How much for the Battleborn or food batteries all the van life people and sail boat bloggers are using? I know they are expensive. But how can yiy expect a decent battery fir 40$. Last lead acid battery I bought 4 months ago was 180$ USD.
  5. In other words, just stay off the road because that are so deadly here.
  6. It's a 3 hp Arnold. It was just a tad shy of watering all the side lines. One far slightly uphill was a bit weak. There are a few leaks we can fix but a tad more head would be desired. It's about 50 durian planted 2 close together. Main line is 2" and 60 meters with 1" poly sidelines. Each has a valve but easiest to run them all at same time.
  7. Seems current pump drinks oil after only 1 year. I buy Honda for my small motor needs. What is available in isaan? Could use a bit bigger pump than current. I will check current horsepower and pump rating ASAP.
  8. Wow this lady sounds smart. 10k a month for 2 years. I'm an anti implant or body modification guy. Natural or nothing. Medical devices needs lots of procedures, tracking and analysis of inputs and certifications. So the clinicss saved 800 baht on what a 10-30k surgery. I'm not up on prices. Gal must not have read about the cost to US companies who had the implants that were bursting.
  9. Do bad mushrooms kill overnight? I think not. My guess is OD on something.
  10. Sinsod always an interesting topic. Timely thread as we will do our Thai wedding Jan 2. Officially married in US for 18 months and she has hopefully seen the light during that time. Yes we make so much more for our days labor but see has worked hard and seen how an American man multitask and plans to maximize efficiency. She has seen money doesn't grow on trees. And she sees how much it costs to live in USA. I thought I had squelched the sinsod topic but it has surfaced a bit last couple days here at moms house. I'm not sure why. What's love got to do with it. Who falls in love with Thai culture? It was the shapely slim figure and skin tone and bright white smile. I thought the comment about wiping her self with her hands was timely for my our current situation and it's basically what I told her this morning. Do you want to live here with those toilet conditions or in our beautiful house in USA? I do worry about some guests drinking to much and then thinking they can drive and having an accident on my conscious. Taking the keys away or trying to stop serving someone probably not to go over so well. Of course one of her dreams it to build a better modern house for mom but she sees how they take care of what they have. They are happy and I think she sees that. It's just this sinsod thing is cultivated as a measure of ones worth. They read about the 5 million sinsods on FB or the news and it creates false desire just like brand names like Niki and iphone. I do have to say life in the village has similarities to a crude elk camp
  11. I washed my US passport and I pressed its end covers flat and used it again. The main pages were ok. A few stamps where the ink ran a bit but no real staining transfered to other pages.
  12. So they think that most Thais get the news and read this idea? In moo nans the person down the street or the store sells all day long.
  13. Yes but you attach an Al ladder as a guide.
  14. A sane person would need protective pants and gear. And whatever else? Places to inquire about purchase or delivery? Do have a truck.
  15. If liking guns is a hobby attributed to America I can live with that. Why wouldn't the reporter ask what numbers on the bullets? Obviously a semi auto handgun because they break down and could confuse the uneducated. So 9mm, .380, or 45acp. Yes most commercial pistol ammo comes in 50 per box. To bad this Aussie doesn't read Asiannow or he would know the Israeli got in deep do do with less bullets no gun.
  16. Was he here for many years or just 45 days +38. Just seems like info to put in the article.
  17. Maybe many are now working online
  18. Tell wife not to take this personally. Scammers are getting good. I almost got scammed a month ago in USA. Got a call saying it was google and why hadn't I finished my Google business profile or account? They knew my name and address and business name. They needed to confirm my phone number so sent a code that looked like from Google or maybe it was. I did give them the code but them they asked for email and I got a smelly wiff so asked them to prove they were from Google. I hung up and went to Google and changed my password. I don't know what they were attempting. Indian sounding guy. And maybe their were 2 guys. I don't use Google for much.
  19. Are you saying sinsod should be related to age gap? What if the gal is over 30? Or 40 or 45? Have you really been that close to marriage multi times? that it was time for the serious sin sod talks? Getting big sinsod seems to be for face or like bragging rights. A woman may ask big because she thinks it's the thing to do. But a smart woman will realize the couple may need that money to live a good life. 1 or 2 million is some good cash. 100k shouldnt hurt most guys. Bahts of gold gets expensive and a good woman should value warm winter clothes, good mountain bike, good food,. Nice house and life outside of Thailand
  20. What all type of things can you include in a list? And was it true we had to get some form and show passport at Robinsons or can we just show the receipts upon leaving at the airport?
  21. I was expecting to read a few facts like the depth of the water? I did read that there were 3-4 generators but when the running one was flooded the remaining backups wouldn't run? Going to be interesting to see of we get a transparent full report on this big sad mishap.
  22. Bought some stuff at Robinson. Under 300 USD and was asked of we wanted to register for vat refund. Guy said we needed to go wait in 3rd floor service desk line. I was worried about giving Robinson my passport and any details for a measly 400 baht refund. I really see this as just an info gathering for money skeme do I told the wife to forget it.
  23. It seems important what the OP:s future wife replied when they asked for 2 million baht. I plan to give close to nothing. Lucky my wife is a frugal person with our and my money.
  24. There is an alternative. Like just now I was sitting in lobby of my Asoke hotel. A cute, classy gal sitting there. Man 55-65? Just came down to take her upstairs. Down and dirty by 2:30 pm. Fresh start to her day. I was a bit jealous.
