Visit Kalm in the old city. Even if nothing catches your eye, it's a very interesting place to visit.

Talk to Paul at Doi Saket Properties. I hired him and his very reliable and competent crew to build two homes in a family compound for me and my loved ones. I have been extremely satisfied with the work and the continued support provided.

Thailand ranks bottom of the pile with ASEAN English score
CM Dad replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I sincerely hope you were not a teacher of English! "Conversate?" The verb you need is converse. In addition, of is a preposition and needs to be followed by an object - either a noun or a possessive pronoun. The noun needed in your sentence is importance. Important is not a noun, it is an adjective. The primary problems of English language teaching in Thailand are that Thai teachers rarely speak English to students and the foreigners hired to teach English are either non-native speakers or foreigners whose only qualification is that they are native speakers. Another issue is that language learning is taught from a grammar-based perspective with exams usually given as multiple choice questions in order to be easily marked by anyone. -
IKEA to open new branch at Sukhumvit of Bangkok in December
CM Dad replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Please open one in Chiang Mai. -
I think this might be related to the guy who was told that he was too fat by the taxi driver. Perhaps that is why he is standing in the middle of a road.

Extension of stay based on marriage
CM Dad replied to Chesterpot's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
No, you cannot do extensions based on marriage at the Central Festival Immigration Office in Chiang Mai. -
Best ALTERNATIVE to Cloth Curtains for Sliding-Glass Doors in CM?
CM Dad replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in DIY Forum
High gloss paint - dark brown or black would fit your style. -
Over the many years that I have lived here, I have often been asked to meet friends or family members of friends when they came to visit. I don't have a problem doing this, but I usually will not travel anywhere with them and I definitely will not take them to bars. I will tell them where the bars are, but they can go on their own. Meeting them for dinner and talking with them about the place where I have chosen to live is the most i will do.

I bought some at First Drug, Mee Chok Plaza, in Chiang Mai last month. It was a very, very small bottle and the manager had to be called to unlock a special drawer to get it. One would have thought I was requesting a dangerous narcotic.

Thai wife wants to buy land
CM Dad replied to jayceenik's topic in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership
It sounds like you have a wonderful wife. Not all Thai women are only after a man's money just like not all women in your home country are not only after a man's money. There are good and bad women and men everywhere. Men need to trust their own judgement regarding their wives. If they don't plan to live on the land then I wouldn't buy it and I would never buy land for someone who was only my girlfriend. My wife and I bought land and built a house on it, which we moved to, two years ago. Everything was done in my wife's name and I had no problems with that as we have been together for almost three decades. We are now in the process of transferring the land ownership deed - chanote - to our son who has just turned 18. We had wanted to put the land in his name from the beginning but he needed to be 18 years old. You only tend to hear horror stories on forums like this, but there are many more successful relationships than bad ones. -
That's another reason to learn Thai if you choose to live in Thailand.

What should I do if I no longer find my wife attractive?
CM Dad replied to bob smith's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Looking at your photo, you would have to pay someone to share your bed. -
I agree with Brit Tim. I didn't understand what your original post was about either. In fact, I still am confused about what you are asking. Perhaps you need to write more clearly and maybe even give more information. For example, what kind of service are you requesting at Chiang Mai Immigration? If you are trying to extend your visa then what kind of visa do you currently have? It would appear that you are the one who needs to 'chill'.

Nobody would buy them since they are worthless. -
Why you should never leave a negative hotel review in Thailand
CM Dad replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
If I am not happy with a hotel, I simply move to another. I do that even if I have already paid for one night. -

The demise of the village ATM.
CM Dad replied to Crossy's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
I had Krungthai account for almost two decades and never had problems. Sadly, I quit using it a few years ago when they became quite unfriendly towards Farang. -
What do you believe happens to you when you die?

Pronouns won't matter but the verbs will all be past tense. -
Phuket’s Crime-Free Project Nabs Over 1,000 Foreigners for Visa Overstay
CM Dad replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
These 109 need to be immediately blacklisted. Coming here and dying gives Thailand a bad name. -
Brit stabbed to death with sickle by Thai neighbour, inquest hears
CM Dad replied to webfact's topic in Central Thailand News
My solution to loud music is to fight fire with fire. I play Wagner operas at high volume with speakers facing the late night revelers, only I do it early in the morning when they are usually hungover. I never have had to do it more than once - ohh, and my other Thai neighbors thanked me for ending the late at night racket.- 164 replies
