What's wrong with finding the hotel's phone number and ringing them direct, as I do.- Is he right or wrong?

"......Do not take advantage of our country we would not do it to you..'' What a croc of 💩. Thais running illegal businesses world wide and overstaying visas.- I’ve been ditched by Isaan Farang FB Group

Makro NZ Cheddar no rennet 2kilo pack.- An advice needed - buying a used car
Yes but with newer digital ones not so easy, and service records will show mileage, I know with Nissan that all work done by them is on their central computer, showing job done and mileage, and what province. I even get an SMS saying a oil change is due as they go by the date not the Mileage. Even as me as a mechanic there is not much I can do to check out a car, on site, take it for a road test, floor it, see how it performs, so it gets hot, idles ok no shaking of engine, temp gauge is on normal, go back and see if there are any oil leaks, check tyres for wear, To check Wheel/hub bearings then it would need to be jacked up, brake discs can be viewed for wear and scores, pads also can be seen. Even Car tents have a reputation to keep. I have brought 2 cars from Car2car site, 2014 build one I have had for 6 yrs and no problems outside of normal wear and that was just the brakes.. Engine is fine no oil needed between 10k oil changes. But both are very low kilometers for their year. The last one I brought the "tent" even went and put it in my name (pink ID card) and a new oil change, then delivered it to KC ferry the next day, as I didn't want Mrs. B driving it from Chonburi, she is a very slooow driver. (for what its worth the Tent from memory was called BestCars.)- An advice needed - buying a used car
Have it checked out at a reputable, company, ask for a complete safety check, Tyreplus found worn rear hub bearings on a car I had, and that was just on an annual check, the main thing IMO is low mileage, not the year.- Taking 3 small tubs of nam prik into UK via Heathrow
OK then smuggle it in, don't declare it, get caught for maybe lying on the form and pay a fine, have it confiscated. Jeez, some people are beyond simple advice.- Breakfast Sausage. TGM, JPM or Bucher?
Agree but I also buy a lot of their other frozen food at the same time. Indian curries are yummy, chicken pies, pork pies, lamb pasties yum, Pizzas, I'm also to lazy to make my own food, I buy enough to last maybe 6 weeks +. Mrs. B comes home late from work, and falang food not really her best skills, unless it's fried.- Decade-old Thai rice from controversial scheme found fresh

I buy mine online from Expats Food Thailand not expensive.- Big layoffs ahead in the automotive workshop sector - hold on to your hats!
All cars computer systems for example, not an EV but I have a Nissan and if the engine service light comes on the only people that can access the diagnostic on board system are Nissan to find the problem, in other countries like the US there are other people with a plug in diagnostic 'box' that can access it and diagnose the fault, I have yet to find any 'Normal' workshops that can do that. I can't see that changing with EVs anytime soon.- I find happiness among my loved ones as my health improves : Thaksin
With his 'Nurse' to take care of all his needs- Big layoffs ahead in the automotive workshop sector - hold on to your hats!
Another rip off by the manufactures as in Thailand it seems only they can get into the cars diagnostic computer and you have to pay there rip off prices for parts. Hopefully in the future in Thailand other workshops will learn how to use there own "Box' to diagnose.- I find happiness among my loved ones as my health improves : Thaksin

That is an awful lot of labour intense maintenance house an all. so you intend to make a lot of noise with your jet skis and go-karts. Even your faraway neighbors/and future will get really peed off. not offence intended, but you need to pull in your reins. I'd stick to bananas pineapples.- Starting the building journey
Good vid but 14.5 rai jeez, lets hope the crop covers your labour costs, and all the other expenses involved. Wage hikes coming soon. Good luck you'll need it. Insanity indeed.- Taking 3 small tubs of nam prik into UK via Heathrow
