  1. The Philippines has nothing to do with this Expat issue here, It’s to do with Thailand and UK banks
  2. Sai Yok Elephant camp. A really nice experience, You make their food, feed them and bathe them in the Kwae river. The elephants seem to enjoy it too.
  3. I don’t think you can stuff much money in an envelope wealthy or not. Perhaps he should of made more of an effort to offset his son’s next terms US$ 4,000 to the victims, as we all know cash is king here when there’s an unjust death in the family.
  4. He probably already new the shocks were shot because he’s probably never done any maintenance and servicing throughout the poor cars life
  5. My regular order of 250g Dark Arabica beans from NL coffee, just hiked up ฿25, an 18% increase
  6. I get bombarded with useless game ads or those horrendous Thai commercials, the ones where all the men have bright red lipstick and powder puff on
  7. I believe that you’re right. Several months ago my Pension provider wrote to me telling me as I live abroad they are no longer allowing the services of my Financial Advisor of which I had already invested £3,000 for his continued service, They decline to explain their reasons.
  8. I’ve walked swiftly past dozens of these Cannabis shops and never seen any customer's In them. Just like the dream coffee shop, I’d take a guess many will fail within the first year
  9. I had to go temporarily from a retirement to a marriage status this year because I messed up on my 800k. I actually kept that money in a Thai higher return account of 4% per annum, then I put back in a normal bank 3 months before retirement renewal. Been doing that every year, Firstly it was only a few days late depositing, then my Immigration told me that I can’t take the money out anymore as head office tightened up on withdrawing the funds. What a ball ache this Marriage visa thing is, lots of paperwork, trips to the local government office, & two home visits, we could not get any neighbor willing to confirm my residence, are they all hiding something? Got the village leader to do it in the end, & we don’t even know him. In a phone call the Immigration police boss said to the wife “look after my guys will you” ฿1,000 between the three of em, that’s enough!
  10. I think I picked the wrong time last week for a mini break in this area, it’s an obstacle course of trip hazards along there, or is it always that bad along this road.
  11. I have two watches and enjoy wearing them, easier to glance at your wrist than fumbling around in your pocket or shoulder bag for the mobile
  12. My main annoyance with Lazada is the portrait only mode on app. I’m not a TikTok’er, I like things horizontal
  13. I’m more inclined to worry how I would sell the EV vehicle if it was kept by the owner too long or clocked up 100k, who’s gonna buy a worthless car that potentially may need a 4 to $8,000 battery replacement
  14. Maybe he hasn’t been to the dealers or PCX shop as you call it yet. He’s asking the experience of English speaking members here first
  15. That’s a good question. Ive tried all the usual brand milk, none froths any better than the other on my machine
  16. I have a Saeco Lirika plus for about 5 years & no breakdowns, Automatic’ makes nice Cappuccino froths milk etc, not too expensive about 31k. NL coffee has a good range of beans & equipment
  17. I bough a NutriBullet from the UK. Got some power, mushes up anything, but maybe not large enough for two people.
  18. I wouldn’t give them the name of bouncers, just bar thugs. All they are doing is kicking and stomping, is that the only technique of a pub doorman here
  19. GFM to carry on knocking the #hit out each other in the ring, that doesn’t sound right. A few months ago I was taken out by an idiot doing a sudden U-turn. He takes no blame, it’s all my fault. As well as injuries, 50k damage to my bike. I’ll start a GFM for the bike repairs.
