  1. Does anyone have any suggestions or opinions on a sushi place in Old Town Phuket that serves good, reliably fresh, sushi? Would appreciate any suggestions! Thanks.
  2. Thank you all for your replies and comments!! Cheers, Ron
  3. Good morning! Has anyone been to Phuket Immigration recently to do a retirement extension based on monthly income? I only ask because they change rules more often than I change underwear and I have to go in the next few days. Any new submittals or requirements demanded this year? Thanks for your feedback! Cheers, Ron
  4. What's the old saying.....Once a Banana Republic, always a Banana Republic!!!
  5. Democracy is a system of government in which state power is vested in the people or the general population of a state. Thailand, obviously not.....
  6. Thanks for the recommendations! I ended up using a flame torch tip cleaner to unclog and clean the stove burner jets. It now works perfectly! Might be a good tool to have in your toolbox if you have any gas appliances.
  7. I try not to do it too often but periodically I need to withdraw some cash from an ATM from my US account. I never get an exchange rate anywhere near the current rate published online. Even when the ATM offers a guaranteed rate as an option, the rates shown are lower than current and when the withdrawal shows up on my account it's a lower rate. I'm sure if my US bank (BOA) had ATM's here in Phuket it might help. Unfortunately, they do not! Can anyone recommend which Thai bank ATM offers the best exchange rate? Thanks.
  8. Can anyone recommend a Gas Stove Top Repair/Service provider? I'm in Phuket Town and have an Electrolux Gas Stove Top. Normally I would try to use the local Electrolux service reps but have looked them up online and the reviews of their operation are consistantly poor. So I'm looking for an alternative. Thanks for any input you can provide!
  9. Maybe not all are computer savvy! The "transition process" only asked me to enter a new password. Nothing else. It worked perfectly. Seems to be not a problem!!
  10. Are we surprised? More houses, hotels, apartments, shopping centers, etc, etc. And no infrastucture improvement to support them. It's a joke. Who are the buffoons who run this show???

    Plumber

    Good morning. Can anyone recommend a professional, reliable plumber to do some work at my home which is in the proximity of Old Town Phuket? Not major issues, leaking faucets, drain replacement, etc. I've gotten too old for crawling around under the counter tops. Don't have the patience to <deleted> with it anymore! Any good recommendations would be appreciated! Cheers - Ron
  12. Yeah, right. It takes two six packs to do the weeding!!
  13. Thanks, but that was done during the original installation and now the plants and weeds are growing thru it. So I'm looking for some sort of solution short of replacing the entire garden! Cheers, Ron
  14. Good morning. Does anyone have any recommendation on what I can spray onto my rock garden to inhibit plant and weed growth? I'm getting tired of weeding it every couple of months!! Thanks for any suggestions. Cheers, Ron
