  1. Maybe have to move there 🤣
  2. Any variety other than sugar bananas (which I only like roasted)
  3. The local market and regular fruit stalls only have sugar bananas. Don't know where the other varieties are hiding lately.
  4. If you use such a thing and you're happy with it, would love to know make and model.
  5. Well as you will know, Thai bureaucracy acts in mysterious ways. It may well be that they don't give a damn. We don't know until someone tries and shares that information. For example you're SUPPOSED to show proof of having a certain amount of money on bank deposit if you do a border run but in 20 years I've never been asked once nor has anyone else I know. Go figure.
  6. No that wasn't what I was asking at all. I guess you didn't read my question. My question was had anyone actually tried and succeeded. I wasn't suggesting anyone else do it, nor did I say intended to do it myself. So learn to answer questions instead of rewriting someone else's question for your own gratification so that you can virtue signal.
  7. I know on the website it says that you can't be in Thailand when you apply but.. Just thought I'd ask in case someone got lucky??
  8. Just curious how you get this information. I don't want to bother people with this question needlessly in the future. Thanks
  9. I tried this milk recently. Firstly, it tastes completely different from any other milk I've tested in Thailand. Do you think there's sugar added to it?
  10. Haven't been able to cross there for years but I thought I'd check in.
  11. 🔴 Some of you people are seriously sick in the head. This is a is a forum about family and you're making sexualy inappropriate jokes about a 14 year old boy. If you want to talk about stuff like that, fine but do it in the pub forum.
  12. The boy and his mum live next door. They have been great neighbours for years. I don't have any kids myself, so no idea what kids that age like. Especially a Thai teenager. Happy to spend a couple of thousand baht.
  13. Well if your interested, it benefits me to explain as I'll have to do that for the practitioner at some point unless they can diagnose the issue with a hands on approach.. Started with a mild but sharp pain when I was changing sheets! That feeling passed in a few moments but since then something constantly hasn't felt normal. I don't feel any pain when doing body weight exercise, going up or down stairs or walking (haven't done any jogging or sprinting since then). But there is always a feeling of fullness around the bottom of the kneecap and a tingling. Any day that I do a lot of walking, afterwards the is a throbbing and feeling of warmth in the area which passes after a few hours. At no point do I feel what I would describe as pain, whether I'm being active or not. I don't know if the issue is somewhere in the joint, the large tendon that connects with the kneecap or with supporting ligaments. There is definitely what I would describe as reduced stability in the joint. ie it seem 'loose' somehow. Sometimes I get a more pronounced feeling like there is something stuck in my knee or a fullness, particularly when I'm walking. But if I pull my heel to my backside, quite often there is a good pop and that feeling subsides. A few times I tried taking aspirin at night and applying AI cream. Then it always seemed better in the morning but after a while it comes back. I think many people ignore warning signs until something irreversible happens. I love my exercise so I want to address this early. Kudos if you've read this far!
  14. I'm starting to develop an issue with one of my knees. It's far from being anything problematic for me yet. I'm looking for someone competent to make a diagnosis and perhaps how I may be able to manage it. If you've had a positive experience with a practitioner somewhere in Chiang Mai, then I'd appreciate any contact info.
  15. High end Phillips shaver has a dead battery. Needs a lot of specialised tools which I don't want to purchase for a single job. Would like to find someone who does this kind of work. Cheers
  16. I've had excellent char siu in many countries (the best in Sydney at a place where people queued for a 100 metres). But haven't found the good stuff here after trying half dozen places. Hence asking for a specific shop recommendation. I thought that was obvious.
  17. I've bought char siu from some takeaway shops but it's nearly always dry, not very tasty and looks like it's dyed with food colouring. Suggestions welcome.

  19. Title should read 'Chang Khlan', i have ADD 😁
  20. Think it just needs the capacitor replaced.
  21. The blades keep slowing down to the point where i can nearly count the revolutions and then speeding up back to normal. After it started happening i took apart the fan and did a clean and lube. Improvement for a day or two but behaviour now back exactly as before. If the problem is a bearing in the fan i would expect a constant speed and some mechanical noise. Can the power in the building be the culprit? It's a modern block of units. I don't notice lights dimming or any fluctuations in supply.
  22. I'm assuming 30 day extentions can be done there? Also, does it tend to get less busy in the afternoons? Thanks
  23. I managed to find some holy basil and cilantro at Kham Thiang many years ago but that was it. Not practical for me to grow things from seed.
  24. You mean the Samsung on the north side of the moat? I didn't know they did electrical appliance repairs there, I thought it was just Electronics.
