Bottom line, you are the final filter

Big barrel of kidney beans at Makro and I think I have seen others there also except pinto

Just take the kitty and give it a good home and you will be repaid with love and happiness

What a nice person ! If it were I , I would take the cat with me as you said that the cat stays inside , so no worries. Cats adopt people and your cat wants you, You are very lucky.

A very long time ago I found a very small kitten in Fiji and I took it on board my sail boat to make the long passage back to the states. The kitten was very happy to just have a place to live

I route my land line cable through my APC which is also grounded and then finally through a Leonics TPS Series Power line and surge protector. So far so good for a few years now. I still have about 7-9 M bps

people in my village would eat the lizard in a heartbeat

No help if you are transferring funds from the UK BUT from the U.S. I have a Wells Fargo Checking account. With them if you keep a high enough balance ( I forget the figure but around $30,000) they will allow 3 ATM withdrawals a month with no charges.That is to say, using NON Wells Fargo atms and there is no charge for international use either. I normally withdraw 20,000 baht 3 times per month for living expenses. The only cost I incur is the 150 baht charge from my Bank of Bangkok ATM Times 3

I would go with the original Bridgestones

although on my Isuzu Dmax I have a 20 inch alloy wheels and have mounted Goodyear

Your original tires gave you very good milage

I have my NAS , router, switch and computer all plugged into my APC UPS and in turn all plugged into a GROUNDED Leonics TPS series power line and surge suppressor so far no worries

I have been using Magic Jack for several years. 2 years ago I bought the new one that does not need a computer and it works just fine. I some times don't get a good connection so I just redial and usually this helps. I also downloaded the Magic Jack app for Iphone. My connection with the Iphone is very good. My home TOT DSL speed is usually around 6-10 mgs and the same when out and about.

I made beef and bean burritos last night. I bought the large flour to tortillas at Makro. I make my own refried pinto beans about once every 2 months then freeze them. I fry ground beef and add all the needed spices and then dice onions and then grade some colby cheese. I wrap each completed burrito into a freezer bag and save for later. YUM

I use one all the time.... A Dough mixer for making pies and such

I spent half a day yesterday here in Sa Kaeo completing my application for health coverage . I paid a sum of 2600 baht and was accepted. I will get my card this morning

I think the 2 key words here are CHEAP & LAZY

It is just not that hard to make your own home made pasta sauce.

I NEVER buy store bought sauce.

I always make a large pot of pasta sauce and then freeze it in one serving containers.

I never complain about the taste or quality of the sauce as I have made it myself.

I would imagine that since Thailand is a Buddhist country the people are reluctant to kill anything. I have a friend that wanted to have his suffering dog put down and went to a Vet but was told no. Makes you wonder though, as they are killing people in the streets of Bangkok at the moment.

Very very sorry for your wife's suffering.

I saw them in Macro

I have had the same problem and now use

this works wonders AND IS FREE

When my Thai wife and I moved here from the U.S. I loaded EVERYTHING we both owned into a container. As far as I was concerned all my shop tools,table saw drill press, everything I owned will be my wife's property when I die. AS I said all was listed as my wife's.

The only thing I did not bring was my golf cart as my shipping company strongly advised against it.

At one point had was thinking of strapping a set of lawnmower reels to the side and call it a "riding mower"

I have a brand new Hoover vacuum cleaner that has been sitting in my garage for years as it is unusable, it is 120 volt AND sucks 10 amps..... that is a big transformer.

My table saw had a way to change the wires so as to use 220 volt instead of 110.

Use a shipping agent to avoid any problems. My locked and sealed container passed through customs unopened and delivered to my front door.

I have found that no matter how hard I tried, I sooner or later plugged some 120 volt appliance into a 220 V outlet and made a instant "boat anchor"

Hmmmm I don't know about anyone else but... Boeuf bourguignon I am hungry now !

I can only speculate as to what type of haze you were in when you wrote this, but if you truly believe that you can assist the Thais when they are inundated English speaking Asians from 10 other countries, it would perhaps be advisable for you to brush up on basic English grammar rules, sentence structure, and punctuation prior to rendering any advice.

You just may consider adding the word BY to your post where you wrote "inundated English " to be truly correct.
