  1. How long was the driver working? 1am is sleep time.
  2. England, maybe, other places not. Germany does not explicitly mention lighters. America and China clearly say no. Thailand does not explicitly mention them.
  3. They have confiscated quite a few of mine over the years. They are not allowed on planes. FYI: Confirmed on TSA website. They are very specific about matches and lighters. Not allowed.
  4. Deng's resort, Kamala Beach, Phuket
  5. By Private Interests, does this mean that they have deals with Jet Ski operators, Taxi bandits, Tuk Tuk thieves and Russian gangsters? I mean other than the usual arrangements.
  6. The English I have heard from the Thai teachers is dreadful. If they are going to be serious about it, let the retired falangs volunteer a few hours a day to help. If budget is an issue, there are thousands of qualified teachers in India available. Dreadful accents but proper vocabulary. I would be happy to throw in an Algebra class for free.
  7. Try AShampoo.Com, they sell an Office knockoff that works great. I think I paid around 20 usd for three licenses. Get on their mailing list and wait for a promotion. You can also download OpenOffice for free. It works great for basic office functions. https://www.openoffice.org/download/
  8. They will find more Cambodian girls than overstaying falangs.
  9. Yaba fueled crazies. Not buying the idea that she didn't know them.
  10. OK, it is a condo that they want to sell. She has been staying there for several years. She is a reasonable tenant that does not trash her home and pays consistently. Mature adult with grown kids, no booze, no drugs, no stupid. I can't help much with a Thai lease, I know some people that might be able to help there though. She has an opportunity to occupy a smaller unit in the building but it is not the unit she rented.
  11. With an English license they will not need an IDP. If Thai language is available online they might choose to accept it. Thai is not offered in the IDP books.
  12. What are the normal termination term for renting a condo? One day notice when payments are up to date does not seem reasonable. Every lease I ever had was at least a month, both ways. Does anyone know Thai tenancy laws? Moving is not the issue as much as the timing.
  13. I would allow an additional two hours, just because, you don't know. The 20k cash is a good point, record the serial numbers, just in case.
  14. Front shocks are 1000 for the full kit, rears are 800 for the pair. Installation is easy but will vary by shop. I would expect under 1000 for all four. It all depends on where you live.
  15. Reaction and colors for me. I have never seen the famous video, not that it would be a big deal.
  16. You need to set up a will and an end of life document naming him as your heir and EOL administrator. The disbursement of your Aussie holdings will be under Aussie law, the Thai law does not matter there.
  17. We don't even know the rules and rates yet. There is nothing to discuss.
  18. Flying is more effective than land borders unless you have a story. A bus trip to Angkor Wat is much more plausible than a one day bounce, particularly to Myanmar. You can do a few exemption entries but they can refuse you at the border at will.
  19. The frigate makes a lot more sense, there are practical missions available. A submarine in the gulf of Thailand is a useless target.
  20. You request the report a week in advance and then go directly to immigration from there.
  21. What was the trigger? Knife attacks are never acceptable but neither is stuffing check bins. Regardless, I hope he enjoys his extended stay in Chiang Mai.
