  1. Poor old Thailand has gone broke, just admit it ! that's about 5.5 billion USD, But I do know a man that, has that for loose change, from tax payers money.
  2. My friend died in hospital from MND on Koh Chang the Police Insisted he was taken to BKK for autopsy cost was 5k.
  3. No sorry but as the body will have already have had an autopsy, I can't see why there would be a burial, just my opinion/gut feeling. Cremation is cheaper than using land for a burial. init.
  4. Yep a Pauper's 'grave' but I think they just burn you in the incinerator.
  5. It will cost about 1k per person that attends IME and that was with food, my wife organized for my mate that died 20k covered the whole thing, it its not the cremation that is the cost, its getting the body returned from the Police Forensics but that only cost 43k and that was to Koh Chang including the coffin. The cremation ceremony itself if done at a Buddhist temple is a 3 day affair, 1st day chanting, second day cremation, next day when the ashes have cooled down your bones are smashed up. It all seems pretty mandatory. From what I have heard just a cremation costs just 5K. You could contact the company below and get one of their forms, its all the paperwork, embassy, death cert that is a pain if you do it yourself, let them do all the leg work your death will also have to be registered at your local Amphur before they release the body, this company were very professional. Where it says other just put the name of the Temple you want. Edit this was one recommended to me by the OZ embassy.
  6. He also was crossing over solid white line lane markers, I've been done for that buy cameras. Its not his bike so I doubt anything will happen and he'll just go home without paying.
  7. 1.75 Mt I aint no midget, my father was the same its in my genes.
  8. Thank you for your concern, I'm not overweight by long chalk, 60kilo max, I eat quite healthy food, it takes me about an hour to drink one big beer, can't walk very far, buggered painful hips from a broken pelvis many years ago , Tonight dinner is lamb pasty with extra veg on the side, followed by a 0% fat fruit yoghurt. Yes smoking is my bad habit 1 pack a day. I live what I consider a normal life in the evenings watch TV, bed by 10pm I'm 73 very soon. Just because I live in Thailand I don't have the need to go to bars anymore.
  9. Oh you naughty boy, I lived out in the sticks of Walton-on Thames, as a boy I was fascinated by the huge Bus Station there. (we never had a car) That Studio 7 was turned into an Adult movie place, and in later years I was 26 my Nypho/exhibitionist GF liked to go their dressed to the nines in a long tight black dress the only female in there Sadly she ended up going back to her husband after 2 yrs 😭
  10. Bill it's time you woke up, And it's time you read the link that says if you declare it and show prove where it came from then it should not be a problem.
  11. So if you can read the OP it sounds like he can prove it was legitimately sourced. What was your point again?
  12. BS if it is declared and all paper work is in order there is no restriction loopy.
  13. No rent to pay, no eating or drinking out. I pay for internet, Lecky, cigarettes, 2 large Leos every night, Netflix, cook at home, order frozen food every month around 2k, some cheap brick weed, and to keep within my budget still give my wife an allowance every month, she buys mainly her own stuff clothes, food she likes etc. cat and dog food, 25k max a month. about 10-20k a year on my car, and I only use that to go shopping.
  14. If you declare it Both ends and you have the relevant paperwork, I don't see a problem. As long as its not 'black' money. What country will you enter?
  15. Doesn't sound like you have a very good fence what type of fence do you have? , I have put shade cloth along the bottom of mine keeps out even the dogs.
  16. Are you struggling in Thailand? Only if I wake up with a large lady on top.
  17. Other documents you may need are here at #8, but this is Trat with very strict rules like the 6 photos. I hope this helps, good luck.
  18. It still requires the same amount of money though. I still don't get your point.
  19. Agree, KC air quality today Good, all the resorts keep the lovely beaches clean of rubbish too., and the 'Trash Heroes' clean the other small islands close by.
  20. Ah that useless pink card that I got my driving license with, my DL has the number of my pink card not my passport number. I have checked in to 4* hotels with it, no problem. But I do always carry my PP if going away from home, plus photos of it on my phone with current extension.
  21. We my wife and I checked into one of those and it had a gynecologist chair Stirrups an all 😱 I dread to think what went on in that room, we left forthwith.
