  1. Does anyone know where to find Vegemite around Chanthaburi area?

    Have tried all of the usual stores recently with no success.

    Makro previously stocked it, but not in the last 18 months.

    Would appreciate any assistance to locate this gourmet breakfast spread.

    Hopefully moving to Thailand in the near future and have a query;

     

    I'm with Commonwealth Bank and they have this security feature where they send you a code via SMS the first time you transfer money to a new account. How will this work in Thailand if I'm transferring 400000THB to my Thai bank account? The mobile phone is with Telstra and won't work unless I have international roaming activated which would be expensive in the long term.

    I'm also thinking of MyGov website as well. Same deal to login you have to receive a code via SMS. I can't imagine it would be cheap to have international roaming active on a long term basis. So what do you guys do? 

    I have a skype number for 02 (Sydney region) that looks like a fixed line, anyone can call or sms from Sydney for the cost of a local call. The call will find me anywhere in the world. Cost ~$50pa

  3. We have just finished building an Oz style metal house in Chanthaburi. Got a quote from the local Bluescope shop for metal sandwich 50mm insulated roofing - thb 200,000. Got an alterative quote for identical spec using Thai product for thb 120,000. We are very pleased with the local service and product.
