  1. Can't remember, something with the word Pine in it. Coming into Mae Hong Son from Pai, a soi on the left just before the police station.
  2. Never felt the need to ghost anyone. One f##k off from me is usually enough.
  3. Big bed for me and my GF, clean linen and towels. Functioning aircon and plumbing. Price range 500 m- 800 baht/night. I always ask to inspect the room before we commit. My GF gives me the thumbs down or up. I remember one motel owner in Sukhothai who would not allow us to check, we walked out and got back in the car. Best room was in Mae Hong Son, huge with a very well cooked breakfast of scrambled eggs and bacon. IIRC 550 baht/night. We normally travel in low season, most of the hotels are near empty and pleased to have guests.
  4. It's a problem not having a copy of the current policy in the event of an accident, yes? I don't know if Roojai failed to deliver the policy to Phan post office, or whether the post office lost or mislaid it.
  5. It's obvious from your two posts bashing me you think too little.
  6. The food is cooked in a restaurant kitchen. I wait for it, then take it back to my condo to eat on my scooter. Don't bruise yourself jumping to conclusions.
  7. Keep It Simple, Stupid. Clippers only, no comb attached. All over, repeat every month. 2 weeks for the beard, which seems to grow twice as fast as the head hair,
  8. That's the insurer I am dealing with.
  9. I have had no problem transferring the equivalent of 800K baht in AUD.
  10. In case you have not noticed, there is something of a language barrier when communicating with a Thai insurance company, even when they are communicating in English.
  11. I'd rather track it from the kitchen to my scooter. Thanks for stopping by.
  12. The insurer has acknowledged I have paid the premium. I have a receipt. As other posters have pointed out, it's only the Por Ror Bor insurance which should be necessary. I am now thinking my GF tried to renew the registration without the Por ror bor, and has confused the two.
  13. It's not making much sense to me either, I am trying to navigate this from Australia.
  14. I suspect either my GF or the DLT official is confused.
  15. They do, that's how I have asked them for another copy.
  16. I renewed the comprehensive insurance on my vehicle on July 1. The registration expired August 5. Due to some screwup between the insurer and the Phan post office, I have not received a copy of the new policy. When my GF took the car to the Phan DLT, they refused to renew the registration on the grounds it was uninsured. What should I do going forward? I have already asked the insurer for another copy of the policy.
  17. Desktops and laptops AFAIK don't have Airplane mode.
  18. You're reminding me of a woman at a party in Australia who decided to take me to task about moving to Thailand, and having a Thai GF. I said " Unlike here, she can't take half my assets if we split. She cooks for me, washes and irons my clothes, trims my toenails, cuts my hair. She is 23 years younger than me, is great in bed, and never has a headache. Tell me where in Australia I can find a woman like that". I thought she was going to throw her glass of wine in my face, presumably she thought better of it.
  19. Typical narrow-minded comment.
  20. As always, it depends on one's point of view. There are some that regard retirees here as failures. OTOH, I made the move because I felt stifled in my home country. How many men have the guts in their 60's to learn a new language, immerse themselves in a foreign culture, and walk away from everything that is familiar and comfortable? I once worked with a guy whose ambitions were to marry his sweetheart, have kids, buy a house in his home suburb, and barrack for his football team for the rest of his life, attending every match. He ridiculed me for wanting to travel. One of his ambitions was achieved when his wife ( good Catholics ) presented him with twins. I didn't hear any more about him, maybe he is content. A pretty dull life IMO.
  21. Bits of David Copperfield and Nicholas Nickleby, plus Mr. Jaggers.
  22. Why do posters feel it is necessary to laugh at their own jokes or comments?
  23. Many northern Thais have Chinese in the mix somewhere. I was not aware Earl Woods had Chinese ancestry as well, according to Wikipedia some European ethnicity. The Thai mothers probably did not realize Tiger is not into women with small busts. His wife and all the women he had affairs with have one common denominator - a large rack. Sorry, off topic.
  24. What does the OP want to test for? Viscosity, Coefficient of friction, ester content, EP additives, wax content, volatiles?
  25. Tiger Woods is a professional golfer, the son of Earl Woods ( African-American ) and Kutilda Woods ( Thai ). He has won 15 major titles, and has a net worth of USD 1.1 billion after paying out $100 million in a divorce settlement. I can only conclude you are living in a Himalayan cave if you have not heard of him, or have zero interest in sport.
