I have a lifetime driving licence, issued some 35 years ago. Some people have suggested to me that this is no longer valid, but never had any problems when asked to produce the licence at a road check.

You have done well to make the paper last. LTO will issue you the new style one, it will still be Lifetime.

Having caddies is a good thing but compulsory caddies a bad thing, it stops many thai people from playing the game regularly, why would they want to pay 700 baht+ for just the caddy

It certainly makes golf expensive.

Some interesting comments.

I recently read that if a plug is not used then water can enter and may affect any steel bracing within.

Also read this… https://treadconnection.com/plugged-tires/

I recently had a.slow puncture, small nail, repaired by a Goodyear Shop. Repair done very quickly so could never have removed the tyre from the rim, so must have been plugged.

We have had a couple of low retaining walls built in the garden using shuttering (M400 and stone) 10cm wide.

Thai style mix!  So am wondering how long before I can paint them, as inferred plenty of water in the mix. In the UK it would be at least one month.

Come to Thailand. Find yourself a car, a slot operated lady and off you go.

Of course if you are on a limited budget neither may be prestine. 

I don’t know about this light thing BUT a rabbit lives in the Thailand one and a man lives in the England one.

Come on the driver is only 45 years old.

So he can’t have experienced, what happens to the road surface when it is rained on after a dry spell often , can he, be fair give the guy a break.

We were 3 (three) days late this year and got the same fine...

Do you mean 10% of three days worth or 10% of the annual fee. 
 

The last time we were a few days late the fee was just a few Baht.

Ah.   I just googled and found this

If you make a late payment and/or send the required document past the deadline, we will not be able to renew your annual tax on time. You will be charged by The Department of Land Transport. The late payment penalty is 1% per month of the car tax.

So there are two for sale at 1000baht each.   ????

These are no longer required. Both in very good condition.  750thb each. PM me if interested   tks

Are there any 2.0 turbo diesel manual cars? Thank you. 

Most of the 'better' ones can be driven in 'manual' by using the (+) and (-) on the steering wheel or  'gear stick'. Just no clutch pedal. Even our  2015 Everest has that function.  On our 2Ltr I can use the (-) to drop a gear or two to overtake.  

If you want it to 'GO' buy a 2Ltr Turbo Diesel.

If you want it to 'REALLY GO' buy a 3Ltr Turbo Diesel,

My wife has a Note 9 and uses it mainly to watch films, using an App or on You tube and also chat to her fiends on LINE.

We are considering buying a Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE. So I am wondering if she could keep her sim in her Note9, put Samsung Flow on both, then watch the films on the Tab. Also could she make and accept LINE calls from her friends. We have TOT WiFi in the house and her data is from AIS.

We don't want to buy a second phone sim, or keep moving the sim from one device to another. If what she wants to do will work then no need the buy the Tab with LTE..

Thanks for any help.

I think it's the fact that he did not apply the brakes.  He rear ended at full speed.  This is implying micro sleep (nodding off) or possibly not paying attention to his driving (mobile phone use, etc). 

Sudden  heart attack or stroke is another option.

Hell GG, you do come up with some topics. As you have said elsewhere you haven't had sex for ten years, well not with a woman (or a man I guess) but how about with yourself , does that count.

When i was a teenager, I was friendly with a nurse and she said 'you have too much testosterone', didn't understand what she meant at the time. Guess that has stayed with me throughout my life. Three times a day was not unusual withy my first wife, nor is it with Aging Asian Babe wife.   

Still, if you are happy with your life style, go for it. I'm sure that there must be others somewhere with your like style.

I have no physical heart problem.

 

And, ever since I elected to give up dating women, I also have not pain due to lost love.

 

Love is Pain, for sure.

 

Yet, for over a decade, I have not experienced even an iota of pain due to this.

I am only saying that I cannot stand the heat, anymore, after living inside my house, with the AC cranked up to max, for many months.

 

What I am saying is that I need to re-acclimate, maybe, by opening my windows, and just letting the noise and pollen come in, as usual.

 

Also, no matter what one might say, I can tell you that....if one chooses to increase one's AC cooling capacity, by DOUBLE what most AC technicians recommend, then you will feel COOL and comfortable.  And, you will reach bliss and nirvana while the AC is running.

 

However, once you venture outside, then you will suffer a shock when the heat hits you.

 

The best way to avoid this is to exercise during the hottest hours of the day, which I actually do.

 

As you know, from my past posts, I never wear a hat in the Noon-Day Sun, either.

 

I LOVE my ACs!!!!

 

Best investment you might make while living in Thailand, IMHO.

 

Take care.

 

Glob!

Interesting your opinion, I do not have a heart problem, How do you know.

Now from experience. The day after I had a stent fitted, for me the Thailand climate changed. I no longer found it hot and only sweated during exercise. Mate you may need to worry.

Yes, agree with Sparktrader.

Also Hot flushes and heavy sweating can definitely be a sign of a heart problem. Have you had one or more hear attacks previously. Could you have had a silent one. Seriously get a medical check up before ....

Earlier this week, I saw three police cars in a line with flashing lights, followed by what looked like a big black van, then three more police cars with flashing lights following.

Must’ve been a very dangerous person in that ‘van’. And all that fuel being used.

I filled up at our local Shell station. Wanted Gasohol 95 Fuel Save. 
 

They said don’t have so said ok put V-Power in.

Looked at the receipt when home. 46.79Baht/Ltr. Next time PTT.

People die daily

Yep, but not great when it’s your turn.

BB Battery service will come to your house and change it for you.

Does anyone know what oil I should in it.

I don’t have the Manuel and have failed to find info I want on the internet

tks 

You might get a bit high on those. LED’s are probably a better option.

I’m surprised that the inside of the lens is also foggy, maybe water vapour but should evaporate with use. I think there should be a small hole somewhere to let water allow venting.
