  1. I had the same issue. After the 2nd or 3rd try, I squinted enough to figure it out and blink and turn my head the right way. The next time I stopped at the bank I mentioned the issue to the banking lady. She said there was no work around, but if I really needed to do whatever was to be done, go to the bank branch and get her help. Unfortunately, in Phimai doing anything that needs help I am looking at an easy hour wait.
  2. Government run and sanctioned gambling is "ok".
  3. If you don't send it in, they will stop payments by January. Then expect a few months with no payments as you sort it out.
  4. What with mail service to Phimai from Bangkok as it is, I expect this years notices to arrive late next year, if at all. All at one time.
  5. I use a long extended handled broom. I sweep them off the wall and quickly sweep them into a dust pan. You have to vigorously shake the dustpan as you run to the door and toss them outside. If you don't shake it hard enough, they will scurry right out.
  6. When is the travel advisory coming out for the USA? I am sure by now everyone already knows.
  7. As retirees, I bet we spend buckets more in a month that any tourist would. We also make long term investments in the family and the neighborhood. And yet they really don't want us here. Go figure.
  8. I have had a Schwab brokerage acct. for 6 years or so. I have my address as being in the US at a relatives house. A week ago I wanted to add my Thai wife to the account, and change my mailing address to Thailand. So far, no can do. I tried to get a savings account, could not do that either. I do have my Thai phone in there, and they are ok with that. I wanted to make my wife the beneficiary, but you can't use a foreign address. My bet is, that it is a USA govt. requirement, not just Schwab. I have a regular bank acct in my home are in the US, and I can't use a Thai address or phone there. I need to find another way to get the wife as a beneficiary.
  9. I bought some on Lazada last year, from a brand with Pride as part of the name. It did absolutely nothing. I ordered some from a local pharmacist that did the trick. Melatonin over a long term can damage your gut, it did mine years back, until I stopped taking it. Now at my old age, it will work for a few days to help me sleep. Now it keeps me awake for 4-6 hours after I take it.
  10. They should put up a donations box if they need extra for the parks. Those that have a little extra I am sure would be happy to chip in.
  11. What about shining a light up your butt?
  12. Too stupi* to even comment.
  13. I have my main passport page as my background on my phone. I also have a few pics kept on my phone, such as my visa page and 90 day page from my passport. If I am stopped, I have recent pictures. I do not carry my passport.
  14. Another garbage in garbage out comment. When you don't understand what is reported, you make cumb comments like this.
  15. I worked here in the early 1980's for a few years. I moved here to retire, as anyplace is better than the US post Chump.
