To make it last a few hours more !!....depending on the limescale, regularly soak in a bit of white vinegar overnight. That is if you have limescale, which can be quite rare in certain parts of Thailand I guess ?

I have cheap tonky-donk brand from Amazon, that has transparent glass and a swanky blue led light....at the moment no issues after 3 years of intensive use.

But long lasting in today's market values ? unless you shed out at least 100 bucks,...and even then not sure.

I make it a point to discard the pan no matter what brand at the first signs of it's loosing it's non stick performance and when the grime starts to slighty stick despite intensive hand washing.

My girlies all agree,  never to wash in diswasher,  so I obediently comply.

Tefal brand only ? why not,  but at the end they all have limited lifespan,???? no matter how careful you are.

To make it simple, use it normally but avoid using it without oil as some people do, and above all, discard and chage at the first signs of use. Not to say if it's healthy or not, I think all the coca cola mixers I used in my party years in my Jack-Coke will catch up faster, then the pan's teflon coating.

No point in all the gay bashing as the fault of the frustrated cop was naturally to fire his gun. Gay or not, the fellow is a dangerous scumbag and needs not only to be fired but also put in a mental home for proper or unproper treatment.

On a different look, I love gay men. Because the more the men are gay in my favorite club, the more space I have to sneak from behind and pick up all the girlies just fer meself  ????

In other words, since there is no extra service booths (immigration, security, baggage)  to absorb the extra simultaneous flow in the halls, the queue will go from 1hour  to double ?

Depends on you status in Thailand also if you intend to have dealings with immigration..

 

You entered Thailand few weeks ago on what? 

Reentry permit, visa exempt, tourist visa etc

On O visa 90d.  with first stay in a hotel in Bangkok for a week.  Then move to another hotel in Phuket for a few wks  and after move into a private house in Phuket. So my question was mainly for Phuket, must I or the house owner, file a TM30 when moving into the private place after the hotel ? 

Because in Phuket will be asking for a certificate of residence for different formalities. Thank you.

does one have to do a TM30 on changing address within Thailand ?

Say you arrive for a few weeks in a big hotel (who obviously will inform immigration online)  then move to another province in a private house ? does one need to re inform immigration ? Thank you, .

Somebody in golden wings, did not get the chunky brown enveloppe ?

Another way to put things aroung, is what do we as foreigners in a foreign country think of other foreigners, left alone the locals ?

I always find it very intriguing to hear foreigners-falangs whatever....foreigners in a foreign country, giving out against other foreigners.

One doesn't have to be with a bar girl or ex bar girl for that stuff to happen................

Obvisouly and even not just in Thailand, fully agree.

But if I may, the topic here was on the bar girl so obviously the initial comment was related to that.

Thank you,

Have a nice evening.

One may want to have in mind the possible risk in such a situtation if the fine long term hired lady has a secret Thai boyfriend, lover or even a husband back up in the North (or South!)

The union can end up tragically for the falang ca$h cow, as per the stories one regularly  reads.

Hope I am wrong however ...

Hello again.

Any good experiences on where to get the Bach Flower remedies and dillutions in Bangkok ?

Best Indian restaurant in Bangkok, The Rang Mahal, 26th Floor Rembrandt Hotel, Sukhumvit Soi 18.

Was just going to suggest this one !!!... and the views on the top are also great at night. Good choice.

Not to forget the cholesterol LDL and HDL levels that are always good to know and adapt diet if necessary.

Very often people mistake ukrainians for russians.

Not trying to oppose one clan towards another but personnaly I am embarassed to admit that I cannot make out the difference between an Ukrainian and a Russian, either in their language or physical appearance.

No hard feelings but just being honest.

Kind of silly.  Especially in Thailand. 

Sounds as another left wing zealot wanting to teach others.

Good ole' 2008 when one could get a long term BJ for 10 quid ?

Always take a witness or wear a discreet bodycam with sound  if you want to have proof. ????

Such thefts occur as much in so called beach town "gated developpments" so imagine in the big city. Always lock it all.

Even in a house that is left unoccupied in a develippment, where obviously the managers keep a key and acces the property for maintenance etc.... it's a good idea to have at least 1 or 2 of the kitchen cabinets also locked to avoid thefts of cutlery or kitchen appliances and same with any garden shed with tools or other appliances. CCTV sometimes mysteriously goes down.

Nothing really good to expect with the sex tourists or sex mongrels in Pattaya at dark hours,  should they be arab, chinese, indians, europeans, brits, yankees or from where ever.

Obviously these chaps are not in the area to visit a Wat in the area  ? Or am I mistaken again ? ????

Many digital security specialists recommend to avoid if possible...if possible, using free public wifi networks,  as in hotels, airports, planes or restaurants etc.... As I am not a IT specialist to contradict, I abide to that rule and avoid using wifi in public places. But it can be inconvenient and costly to use the phone network when in a hotel room.

Any feedback on how the wise debit card can be used in Thailand appreciated.

can it be used like any other credit/debit card everywhere ?

can one draw THB from ATM's of any bank ? if yes is there a fee on the withdrawl with the Wise debit card (that is green card I think ? )

Thanks

Such details should be given by the Thai embassy. But considering how rude some can be in the visa offices abroad, or even the fact that often they don't even answer the phone for visa issues, one has to find the answers and pray it won't be rejected by the chap handling the paperwork at the embassy. The ones in Europe seem the slowest and most inefficient to help the visitors calling for help - the only answer they give is "check on website".  Not to mention that the process is real slow and lasts weeks to a month if not more.
