  1. It MAY have been referred-to above, but a solid yes for Rimping's Artisan French Country Sourdough bread (and reasonably [.. for Thailand...] priced).
  2. The section of Highway 118 between Chiang Mai and Mae Khachan was completed 2 years ago. The section between Mae Khachan and Mae Lao is currently under construction in small sections. There are currently 2 major issues: the interchange under construction at the junction of Highways 1 and 118 (traffic is required to take a very long and slow detour) while the highway from the earthquake zone to the junction (approx 7 km) is rough, slow and dusty. The other major issue is about 8 km north westerly from the Charoen Resort. Long delays and lineups are to be expected, and the trip is extremely dusty.
  3. The meeting was over 50 years ago? Long time for someone to be National Police Chief.
  4. Thanks. Looking at the rates you posted, I am amazed that electrical rates could be maintained at such low rates in BC (while other costs have increased so dramatically!) I've been in Thailand uninterrupted for going on 20 years) but have family in BC and Alberta Comparing the BC rates - even those in the interior - with the AB rates. Holy Sh__
  5. 500B/month? In BC? ummm forget that this conversation is about Baht not dollars?
  6. It appears that the lower areas of Mae Sai near the Sai River are flooded again. Seems the hardest hit are the areas between the Sai Lom market and the Friendship Bridge. Hard to keep an exact count, but it appears to be the 7th or 8th time this season. So much for local officials claims that such would not happen again. Cleanup from the previous and MUCH more drastic floods is still not complete.

  7. Avoid wood frames if at all possible. Plastic or aluminum do not get eaten by termites and other bugs.
  8. Nah. Red notices take time - all the departed cowards will be back on Friday.
  9. Some people insist there are no benefits from a Yellow Book and a Pink Card. Some people believe in nonsense spouted by people not even in Thailand. You seem to be one of those.
  10. Another great "improvement" by the new staff of TV/AN
  11. Why does Donald Trump mingle with Israeli terrorists?
  12. Highway 118 is being completely rebuilt from Mae Lao corner (intersection with Highway 1) to Wiang Pa Pao (in small sections). Current areas with major construction underway: Mae Lao Corner (118 and 1) west to Phu Doi (the old earthquake area) - sort-of passible except after heavy rain. Mostly 2 lanes with at least one courtesy area (discourtesy location) where the road is very narrow where vans and delivery pickups seem to own the road. NE of Pong Phu Fuang to just east of Suan Charin Resort-mostly one lane with flag person. - VERY poor condition (road is mostly mud) There are also other smaller sections where there is work, with minor delays expected but the road surface is mostly ok. Note that this was over a week ago – the areas with problems seem to change daily. Give yourself lots of extra time. The very recent flooding in some areas around Wiang Pa Pao has added additional misery to the trip. Expect additional delays. There is also some construction near Mae Khachan where an intersection if being rebuilt. Traffic there seems to be flowing ok but slow.
  13. The Highway is flooded again in two areas in the Wiang Pa Pao Valley - both near the Town of Pa Ngio. One lane is open at the first spot (about 1 km NE of the Town); intermittently closed/one lane a bit closer to Wiang Pa Pao. The Pa Ngio reservoir has overflowed it banks taking a part of the walls of the reservoir with it.
  14. Don't know about any carcanoma but have had a carcinoma removed several years ago by Dr. Vachiraporn at the RAM. She monitored the site for several years thereafter.
