My Thai wife will be compulsorily retired without pension from her long time job at a International school this year. I bring in 65000 pm for O extension; hopefully I can then claim her as a dependant?🙏😁🤔

I drive into it from my village near San Klang intersection, the new concrete is really smooth.☺️

Living in CM I am wearing my PM 2.5 mask outside already.

No problem though have only used Ebay once from Thailand though PayPal a number of times. I purchased a camera from Japan this year from Ebay and using PayPal was amazed at how smooth it all went.

I have been twisted around a bit with the treatment of my little dog. Can someone please recommend a good English speaking, straight talking Vetinarian preferably in my area. I have been mucked around a bit with his treatment and would like another opinion before I go completely bonkers.

Many thanks for the information. I have been looking for an access road which I felt would start from the road behind the Royal Alpine Golf Course (a road I often use). To this day I haven't been able to find the start..but great to know that a hand poured concrete road to the site exists. I did start driving one road yesterday but that led onto a gravel rutted track some 300 metres in so pulled out of that one. I would love to be many years younger to hike the trail but I'm not; I also have my old dog who is needs some monitoring due to his health so if I'm going to do it, it will be in my front wheel drive Honda HRV. Cheers Brian.

I see this mountaintop structure quite often on my photographic outings in the Ban Thi district of Lamphun. I understand it could be known as the Doi Thon or Doi Ngom Viewpoint and sits on the border of CM and Lamphun. I would like to access it if possible to experience the views and take some photos. Would anyone have some information on this site and if it has a driveable access. Many thanks if you can post some info. I have attached a photo to know what I'm seeing.

My wife is a teacher at a local international school and has been for 18 years. In two years time she has to retire from her job due to her age, but at the moment seems to enjoy cooking after her return from work each day, but she sometimes picks up some noodles on the way home. I'm now 70 and enjoy driving out to rural locations with the retired dog to fly my drone and take photos, I also enjoy amateur photography with the few cameras I have. I stay away from malls unless with my wife and generally travel in the opposite direction to our small city centre which is currently full of tourists.

I always look forward to having my vegan lunches from Guan Imm and elsewhere on the weekends though I'm not a vegan. My meat intake though is lite, maybe a few times a week.

Both front and rear cams for our two cars were purchased and fitted at Amnuay2 opposite Bangkok Hospital. Nicha is the owners daughter and the only one I think who speaks very good English.

Thanks, yes I thought I did my research into who would give me the best coverage for age and preconditions, but always hopeful of a cheaper option hence the post.

Yes done to death I know but I will give my question a go. I took out a health insurance policy last year for total cost of 209241 baht (over $AUD9000). Yes gasp gasp, but the policy was taken out at age 69 having had a heart attack early 2020 with a stent inserted. Following this event I stopped drinking and lost about 20kg in weight.....so leading a very health lifestyle oh yes, non smoker. However with this policy there is a moratorium of 2 years......so any heart problem or problem connected with the heart I pay myself if still vertical; there is a Nil Excess but Inpatient only, also International coverage except USA. So if I'm laid up with anything other then coronary all good. As the end of my first year is 6.12.23 I am dreading paying out so much money......but will if I can't find anything cheaper with equivalent coverage. My recent comprehensive health check up was great except for low B12 and borderline high iron. My question if if you have lasted this long.......does anyone know where I can do better cost wise considering my age and circumstances? Cheers.

As a non meat eater I prefer nothing that even resembles it.

Not the same thing, but I'm rejected on line doing 90 day reports because of having my retirement extension from another province, but drive through okay as the local TM 30 receipt can be sighted in the rear of my passport. I will put it to the test early July as a learning experience and accept negative/positive response.
