    I lived in a rented house outside of Udon Thani in the mid 70s. We were buying Thai sticks wrapped in newspaper, 3 layers of 7 sticks per bundle. 

    21 sticks for 20 baht or $1. 

    I found a couple of pictures from back then.

    Back to the present day, I recently bought a very fresh batch of NKP red string from a distributors house on the Mekong river in NKP. I had lived near that area for years (now living in Phuket) and have some good friends there that pointed me in the right direction during a road trip we recently took up there.

    This is the best brick weed I have sampled since forever. The very clean and clear quality of the high is far better than any of the old brown brick weed from the past and made me think of the old Thai stick days. The smell is also very similar to the original Thai stick weed, as I remember it.

    Where I am staying now in Phuket, I can walk to 5 or 10 different weed shops in a few minutes. Seems like a new shop opens every day. But they will no longer be seeing my face in any of those shops. The weed they are selling looks very nice, but costs hundreds of times more per gram than the 3.3฿ per gram that I paid for my NKP brick weed. And there is very little difference in the strength. I still have some of the megabuck weed that I bought before our road trip to compare it to directly.  

    Happy days are here again. "Highly" recommended.

    500 Baht and they will issue it while you wait.

     

    Don't want to pay? Collect tomorrow.

     

    I paid.

    The point is it should be free. This thread is about corruption. There was also no choice to collect it tomorrow if payment wasn't made, once they have your passport, you have no choice. I didn't pay 500 after some negotiations in Thai, but i still had to pay.

    In theory... since the online license is to be accepted for all purposes the physical license can be used for, the Land Transport Office should accept your showing it on the phone or a copy of the picture on your phone.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Thanks. Its not for a few years yet, but just thinking ahead.

    To be honest, I don’t remember either. Go ahead and register your bike license and let us know what happens 😊

    Thanks for the help. I now have both licenses on the app on my phone. What happens when i come to re-new my car license if i dont have the actual license?

    Yes, if you have photos of the back of your license (you need to scan a qr code off the back of your license when registering with the online app).  The app wouldn't care that you lost your license.  You could use the license on the app whenever you previously used your physical driver's license.

    Thanks, sadly i don't have a photo of my car license, only my bike license, would that work or is it a different qr code?

    You can use the DLT QR license app, just as good as the hard copy. If you don’t have the app already but have a photo of the back of your license, then you can register on the app. Also I keep screenshots off the app of front and back of both my licenses.

    Thanks. This can be used to replace a lost license?. How would the app know ive lost it?

    Yes I have ordered from them for about 4 times ,the first kilo of green crack I got about 4 months ago was superb sticky stinky ,the last 2 orders one of green crack and then squirrel tail was dry but not terribly dry .They are a pleasure to deal with and have many many customers .I was going to contact them today as I've seen they have a new round of squirel tail that is supposed to be fresh.

    Thanks. The only ad I am seeing is for the brick weed, is that green crack?. Do you have a link for the full range please?

    I think it could also be to do with whatever you were smoking before could be better albeit more expensive.  I started off buying that sh!tty brickweed and them moved onto the stuff from Bangyabong which was great and then the lemon haze which was lovely - sour diesel and now the cherry whatever all recommended by Philthebook.  I have bought from the same vendor several times now and Im never disappointed

    Can't say much more really. It just didn't do anything for me, and several other posters have commented that they thought it was cbd cherry wine, not thc cherry white. For 250 baht I'm not concerned, i will use it as a filler rather than tobacco to roll my other strains with.

    Well I can only vouch for my purchase and not yours - mine reeks the room out, a very potent smell but your assumption that if it has no smell it must be CBD is not correct.  Is it better than the sour diesel?  I think it is and Im certainly not a casual smoker as I smoke morning to night everyday. As I have said before, its subjective and if you didnt like it then at least you didnt waste too much money

    Fair points, just giving my opinion. If the cherry white is better than the sour diesel (which i havent tried), then in my opinion the sour diesel must have been dreadful. Just smoked another half pure joint of the cherry, again, mild buzz, but nothing more. Mine had no smell whatsoever and someone else said there;s smelt like cut grass , so maybe we have had different batches from the same supplier as the 5 reviews are all different

  11. I got the Cherry white not long after i posted yesterday. First thing i noticed was there was no smell whatsoever to it, that made me immediately think it was cbd. Rolled a pure joint, smoked half and got a mild buzz. I'd say the thc level was 8- 10%. Won't purchase again.

     

    Someone posted it was better than the sour diesel they had previously got from the same seller, and the sour diesel was excellent, but not sure how that would apply as at best the cherry white is average in my opinion, but may appeal price wise to the casual smoker.

    Received my 100 g of Cherry Whatever that I ordered - I did dither as to whether to accept the purchase but after sharing the previous purchase amongst friends they all agreed that for the price it is a nice vape and a great deal.  One thing that I must add is that the buds in the 100g are much larger than in the trial 10g pack which makes sense and its a welcome addition

     

     

    How did it smoke?
