All being well on the pre-sprog status . . .

count us in (2)

Thanks

David

Hi Chas

Can Brits and Thais come along for the party? (Won't be wearing Orange!)

Is there a cover charge or anything for the food?

Thanks

David

I'd read somewhere that retirees were required

to pass a 'curmudgeonly old bugger' test before

getting their visa stamps. . . .

You should be ok then Dusty

David

Why join? why not just play the field, after all this IS Thailand!

Stardome is just 420 baht for 9 challenging holes + caddy!

I think the Gymkhana Club is similar in price, I'll check when

I play there later this week....

I am the worlds almost worst golfer by the way, go round a 9 holer in 72+!

David

Evening all

anyone know where to buy mosquito netting on a roll? (NOT a bread roll)

thanks

David

It would be great to have a pedestrianised area as in many western cities where you could sit out and have a meal, stroll up and down street markets, have street entertainers etc, a 'nice' area with the quality tourist shops to mooch in. Somwhere where you can look around, instead of at your feet and whatever the pavement is or isn't doing!

david

Thanks

Why didn't I think of that!!!!

David

Hi, anyone know what's on at Tuskers during SK?

I thought I rmembered someone saying something about Sunday

but no Quiz Monday so can anyone help me out

as when it's the best time to Sonkran there?

Thanks

David

Thanks, that sounds like it, Irish man, very pleasant chap,

knew his stock well. Been around quite a while which surprised me

as I'd never noticed him before!

David

Thanks for that, that's a Gecko branch too under a different name!

I was trying to get the one on the otherside, down the soi.

Thanks

david

Hi guys

can anyone remember the name of the bookshp next to Gecko

at Thae Pae? (and/or Phone number)

Thanks

David

Hi there . . .

I am Chiang Mai's worst golfer, and was wondering if anyone else of a similar

calibre is interested in the odd impromptu game sometime. When I used to play with my old buddy,

the one who lost the fewest balls was the winner! Or we'd play matchplay rules so we didn't have to use both hands

to keep score on any one hole!

So...if interested then let me know! At least I'll make you look good!

David

Is it still on tomorrow (Friday)

would like to come along . . . what time's kick off?

David

Afternoon all

If anyone reading this that is going to Tuskers Quiz night tonight

and has any old jam jars they don't want/need, I'd be very grateful

to take them off your hands (want to make jam, but no jam jars!)

Thanks

David (Underdogs)

Just to be the forum <deleted> . . . .

but doesn't your work permit specify at which

Starbucks you have to work?

David

There is a citrus nursery out here in Mae Jo with good selection and ok prices. Although I haven't been in there for a couple of years, I saw it in passing not long ago and it appeared to be still open. Drive out the 1001 through Mae Jo, toward Phrao, past the San Sai hospital/Mae Rim road, about half or 1 Km on the left.

We've also bought half-a-dozen lemon-saplings, from the organic farm, at the back of Prem Center. They called them "Hawaian Lemons', which I guess reflects where they reached Thailand from, but are actually what I'd call Mediterranean-lemons.

Hi there . . . .

would love details on how to get lemon saplings please

David

Not sure if this is a Thai or Farang house!

Designed and built by Thais, taken from a book

on modern Thai houses.

We've just almost finished building it

with the garden next if there's any money left!

David

PS Most of the bigger houses here are Thai,and the smaller one too

We had our house warming at the weekend. I did on a couple of occasions say to my Thai family members “We don't use the F word here” (even tought we do) I'm David, and my second cousin in law twice removed is Ian, but Falang it was and Falang it is!

How do you refer to other falangs to Thai people?

David

I went once recently

and call it a spooky coincidence, but the 49bht buffet I had at 2.30 pm was . . .

Hi guys

I went this week for my first marriage extension . . . got one week!

Thye're going to come and visit this week sometime to verify us

then I have to go back next week and get a month

and then back a month later for the rest of the year.

Not sure if this is

A. because it's the first one.

B. Because we live relatively close to the imiigration office

C. We went after lunch on a friday and just made it on to the list before she closed her window!

David

I have a yellow book for my Mother in Laws house,

also have been renting for a year but in wife's name.

I guess there has been a build permit . . .

is it just a case of sigining on the dotted line for ownership as I'm sure the builder will have no idea

and neither will my wife!

david

Morning all

The builder's coming over this morning to do the house documents for our new house.

Is there any reason why these can't be in my name? The wife owns the land.

Cheers

David

Hi there....

for some reason - and ONLY on TV - my browser beack button

isn't working, just refreshes the existing page.

Anyone else got this problem (or solution!)

Thanks

David

Hi Guru's all

is this a bounce or a trend - and why is it happening?

Cheers

David
