  1. That would depend where you actually live at those location. They're far from small. All the silliness happens at the beaches. I live in a 'Thai' tourist area, get the weekenders and occasional tour buses. But I don't live where they are visiting. Had a friend with a house on Kamala for years, and he never went to the beaches where the tourist were. All is avoidable, without much effort. Most people don't venture further than their '15 minute' city anywhere, the majority of the week.
  2. Been here 23+ yrs, so had my fair share of GFs & wives. Also ignore more than my fair share of smile pointed my way. More than a few wouldn't mind or tried to latch on to me. Easy to find like minded lasses, no need to pay, well, I don't. Not being overweight & perched on a barstool has it's advantages.
  3. I wouldn't rely on those filters too much. Always call to verify, or have a Plan B-C-D available. We travel with dog, and so many 'pets allowed/not allowed listing are the opposite. Booking site state low price guarantee, and have rarely had one in the past 17+ yrs that was cheaper than the wife calling. This being low-mid priced accommodations <2000 baht, usually 700-1500 baht. Many listed on Agoda & Booking.com w/price guarantees. Best thing about Gmap is access to ph#, or link to a FB page for ph#. Verify info via photos of visitors, and streetview.
  4. Nyet Complete opposite of the one I met recently on Phuket, young, fit, w/brunette GF/wife. If he hadn't said from RU, I would have never guessed.
  5. Why would you even want an app for the forum, the mobile site is bad enough..
  6. Away from the barstool, and back to the experts Source: NOAA w/added notation by ME Some of you may need to Google the definition of; ... higher ... lower Take as much time as you need, don't hurt yourself. Is the trend since pre 1970 now going upward ... YES Has it leveled off ... apparently. Will it get worse or better, higher or lower ... nobody knows
  7. Is there any other ferry route in the world that has more oops than ferries getting to Samui? I might visit after the bridge is completed ... or not.
  8. No. A will would work, or POA easier, but sign 2, leaving one blank (but do reference car in blank one). Signing blue book might work.
  9. You can simply take the photo yourself and use the 'how to' instructions on the PP renewal site when submitting PP renewal. No need to go to a shop, and guessing you'll have a quicker turn around if you don't. 1 less step they don't have to do.
  10. Oh krap, now I have to actually read the OP ... along with crawling out from under that rock. Didn't watch the vid, as too smart to. Remember, IQ simply measures your potential ability to learn, and with all things, if you don't apply yourself, you'll remain as dumb as the rock I'm going back under.
  11. I'll use it for Inthanon coffee & treats. Actually accumulates points faster, every 20 baht spent. Half the 'soon to be' liter price. If not @ MG, we top up @ PEA Volta, BangChaks if more convenient than PEA offices, depending what's near by.
  12. You forgot that camera speeding, traffic violation, immediately and automatically deducted from you savings account. Did you jaywalk today - another deduction. Smoke a cig 5M from a building entrance - deducted Not pick up your dog's sh!t - oh krap, my account is in the red now. Hey, it's natural grass food, and where it's supposed to be ... F O
  13. Any good guitar or sax player will do. The less lyrics (screeching voice) the better.
  14. Smarter ... NO More progressive in current tech usage, since using more than myself, YES ... well, maybe. I can do math in my head and read a paper map, still know & remember history. Doubt most under 30 or 40 yo have a clue if not referring to their phone first.
  15. Actually he is spot on, as la nina & el nino affect different areas differently, globally. Experts vs bar stools ... "While El Niño and La Niña do impact global climate patterns; however, they neither affect all regions nor do are their impacts in a given region the same. In many locations, especially in the tropics, La Niña (or cold episodes) produces roughly the opposite climate variations from El Niño." https://www.unocha.org/themes/el-niño/el-niño-and-la-niña#:~:text=While El Niño and La,climate variations from El Niño.
  16. Renew license at a different amphur, that doesn't require the silliness of redundant paperwork.
  17. = control especially if & when only digital currency is allowed, forced on people ... ... hopefully not in my lifetime here
  18. Give -0-, help me spend, all oll of it. First thing to buy ... wife visa to USA, FR, RU ... the Louvre ... Moscow, St Petersburg ... USA NPs, living nomadic, see 'em all
  19. Hua HIn Hosp. ... having a possible life saving procedure done in October. At my life expectancy age of 67.7yrs, and supposedly afterwards, possibly knocks off 10% of life expectancy, which I already passed. So yep ... on borrowed time. Saying that (and jinxing myself) ... I feel fine with no limitations. Missed edit time previous post: I'm 68
  20. You guys are killing me ... best best best, but no specific named restaurant. Headed that way next month ... ... specifics Wife gets HY chicken locally, it's OK and definitely a step up from non garlic spiced offerings. Had a good vendor of at Udon Thani Preecha Market area. I'm a beef massaman fan, and hard to find. MaeYa Rest @ UT had a nice version. Very good one recently at Ayutthaya / Aminah Halal Rest, and everything they served was excellent.
  21. It's the govt, hiding stuff is what they do ????
  22. Couple decades of being single works also. 4 marriages & 2 live ins .... think I'd enjoy, need a little me time, if anything happened with present wife. Or quite happy to finish out my days, years with her. I'm easy ... ????
  23. At 67 now, I don't think I'd be looking for another relationship, and simply enjoy being single again. No sense in starting something that won't last that long. I'm on borrowed time already.
  24. And they'll allow it to, and as soon as it becomes big, you simply have a repeat of last time.
