Yes, we like ours so much, we'll be upgrading to the EV version Dec. hopefully. 2020 / 35k kms, if available & interested at that time. ????

How many CS do you need ...

Have ZS and really like ours. What year & kms ?

As the father, I'm guessing, you already have that right. Don't know what you expect any judge to do, or why you would pay a lawyer to try to give you what you already have. Are we missing something here. Do you want to take the wee one out of the country ? Go to family services in UT. Used to be across the street from Amphur office.

I don't hurt people. I don't call causing someone physical pain to the point where they can no longer function properly .... a sport. Whether it's voluntary or not. I just think there is something wrong with wanting to hurt someone, or to put yourself in harm's way of being hurt. Saying that, I actually did enjoy boxing, but not to the point of causing physical damage to the opponent. Yes, it is a skill as are most sports. Well, not the gals in bikinis, that's just silly. I enjoyed playing sports, and competing, but paying to watch others, strangers, no thanks. Bring back the Gladiators. To each their own. ENJOY Fun ... photography, swim with sharks, jump out of perfectly good plane or off a platform, tied to rubber band. White water rafting, deep sea fishing. Trying not to kill myself when driving 200+ kph on my scooters.

I sit corrected ...

Love when you talk dirty to me

jello ...

Wow, now you think you know me. @ 67 yrs old (a Yank), believe me, nothing will surprise me. Back on topic, not a sports fan, so I have very low opinion of 'fighting sports', more than my usual low opinion of most sports. Being able to defend one's self & family, well, everyone should be able to do so, and think that falls under common sense, survival of the fittest, etc etc etc.

Go to family service in UT, and ask them. They would probably just repeat to you what I wrote (never going to happen) in this reply in a different thread. https://aseannow.com/topic/1271817-gaining-custody-of-thai-child/#comment-17606475 Do you WANT custody, or just to be listed as father on birth certificate, which should have already been done.

Being able to defend you & yours is one thing, and never a problem for myself. But purposely using that ability, trying to hurt another human for money ... or paying to watch ... yea - DISTRACTION for the brain dead. I guess art is in the eyes of the beholder.

hmm ... people paying to watch people paid to hurt each other. Any wonder why humans are doomed to extinction. Never really got into watching other people playing, competing (being generous) in sports. DISTRACTION for the brain dead.

Depends where you actually live apparently. Udon Thani, power out during storms, and no surprise there. Rolling outages, until wife calls and tell them, then turned back on. No real water problems, 1st village, own deep ish well, 2nd place, storage tanks & pump, 2nd house, storage tanks & pumps, so no real water issues. Now PKK, and surprisingly, maybe 1 power outage, for less than 1 hr in 5 yrs. Water pressure excellent and never off, without warning, when working on the lines. Have solar now & collect rain water for drinking, but consistent PEA electric & city water was never a problem here/PKK. With that 1 exception, can't remember any outages more than a minute or 5. Impressive compared to UT metro and outer villages. USA, since mentioned, never a problem, anywhere I lived, and that's 9 different states, and 20 ish different areas served by different suppliers. Never an electric or water issue. That's metro areas and rural (hills of WV), FL, MI, PA, NJ, DE, WV, TX, TN, MS. Septic tanks here, never dumped. The concrete ring thingys, 3 or 4 rings, and maybe emptied 3 times in 10 yrs.

Guess I need to check my PO Box, as also just mailed mine in last week. Last time, an impressive, just shy of 2 week turn around. Site stated 4ish weeks, which I doubted would take that long. 11 days in impressive. THANKS Good luck to the OP

Along with the smaller districts/villages relying on the orbator and or puyiban, deciding what to spend it on. Whether funds go to fixing that road or water supply, or new 4X4 for the family ???? Seeing Udon Thani progress, slowly, and one wonders where all the tax revenue is going. Outside in first 2 villages I lived, 1 was a joke, until family voted out, then things got done. The other village, things were done and everything kept up & renovated, repaved as needed. PKK municipality, and the difference is way too noticeable. They seem to have excess of funds, as they are painting, replacing, repaving (with concrete) before I even thought it was necessary. Along with more than a few unneeded projects, cosmetics and not really infrastructure related. Actually impressive. Moved out to the village recently, and all seems quite good out here. One road needs a resurfacing, and expect that to happen, if not this dry season, then next, as all seem to be fairly maintained. Probably one of the last to get resurfaced, and just happens to be the main, at the end of our, unpaved soi. We are the only house on dead end soi, which actually has a very good white stone base 'path'. Rainy season and no gullies in the road to really complain about. Village even sent 'tree surgeons' around to remove some possible 'troublesome' trees around our property. Dead trees on adjacent property.

Yes & yes, you can, and 'should' be registered. Must be in Thai script. I've done 2 wills. No lawyer needed. Can download a 'fill in the blanks' form on the internet. You will appoint an administrator in the will, to carry out your specific instructions, if more than just succession of 'Thai' assets, which will be to wife, and / or surviving children, by law, or how you stipulate. If no will, then wife inherits or children if wife passes before or with you. Good to have a will, if they are not adults, as the administrator of, will ensure (hopefully) your wishes are carried out. Keep a copy for yourself, obviously, and you will receive the 'docket #', so keep in a secure place, and let administrator know. That's the only way to source your registered will. Without it, good luck finding it at the Amphur office.

Agoda is simply a listing site for hotels. The do offer a level of protections, if said hotels advert is deceptive. BUT, do remember, most Thai hotels are self-rated. Read the reviews, CARFULLY. Not the good ones, the 3/5 or 6/10 and below. Look at the 'visitor's' photos. Cross reference with Google map reviews & 'visitor' photos. Negative reviews about no western food, and no English speaking staff can be ignored ... it's Thailand, deal with it. I've had no negative issues with Agoda, actually the opposite, and Agoda & hotel has help me correct my 'oops' when booking a couple times, allowing me to rebook without penalty, or even getting a refund, when not 'officially' entitle to one. Read the refund policy of the hotel. Agoda can only go by what the hotel allows them to do. Unless you don't receive what you paid for; ex; come with buffet brekkie, and you got none, or rate changed on check in, or room not available. Agoda provides some protection there. Many people complain about low price guarantees not being honored. In that aspect, it has to be the 'exact' booking vs booking to be applied, and usually not the case. Always cross check with other booking sites, including the hotels own site. You'll be surprise sometimes on pricing & offers. Same price on one site, might include brekkie. Read you final charge, before confirming reservation. Lastly, if possible, call & ask the hotel (preferably a Thai), as they don't always stick to 'Agoda' pricing policy. Especially 'low price' guarantee. I rarely use sites anymore, as last minute booking usually, but wife (Thai) usually gets a better or same rate as internet postings, and usually without prepayment. Or it will be last minute, and we'll transfer funds when 1 hr away from check in, as sh!t happens when on the fly. HAPPY TRAVELS

If having access to battery, easiest to do, if having cables & another vehicle to use. 12v to 12v should be no problem. I've done in the past, and works same as car to car jumping.

The changes can't be accomplished without political influence & approval. The puppets & puppeteers profiting from the changes. Create distractions, and they can do anything. Just look at the anti Yank posts in this thread (member ignored already), as they keep the division going, but they are united in stealing all the money & life out of the masses. Which are now too dumb to realize anything it seems. Cower & comply is the future. The last decade should have opened everyone's eye, but instead, they fell for it all, hook, line & sinker. It really is damn embarrassing.

Don't know what they teach in schools anymore, but they sure are leaving out much of what I learned. Along with changing things a bit, to fit their agenda. From history to science, seems it's being rewritten. Some good, most not. Remember when vaccines used to prevent illnesses ? Now they just help immune system fight them. Changed that one so big pharma could avoid lawsuits. UN establish to prevent wars, now they endorse and supply both sides. All about the $$$$ ... the masses have become mushrooms, feed 'em sh!t and keep them in the dark.

Agree, as you'll need things to fill your time in anyway once retired. Fresh market & home cooking is great hobby, and if fairly good at it, damn good eating is your reward, at the same or usually cheaper, for much better than any restaurant can offer. Aside from that, I went with photography, and sideline of that, drones. Neither require much physical exertion, unless I crash & have to go find the drone. Wife is better at that anyway. Much easier now as they have GPS. Photography, and the car is the best 'wildlife blind' you can have, as they are used to it. Can drive 25 meters up to them, but can't get 50 meter near them if walking. I've had to zoom way back, I was so close I couldn't fit them in the viewfinder sometimes. Not for everyone, but if really wanting to have a rewarding retirement, take in a village orphan. Doesn't get any better, but ... not for everyone & requires 100% dedication, or seriously, DON'T bother. Doesn't mean you can help out part time, weekends. Probably depends on past kids of your own, as I never, so was best thing ever for me, since now having the time & money. Give woodworking a pass, (termites) and a past hobby. Next up for me, steelwork, and learn welding. Have 1/4 rai garden to play with. Maybe make 'squirrel proof', little fk'ers keep eating my figs. Need to get out & about, and a bit freer than a car ... ebike, as I turned my Schwinn into an ebike, and it's great fun to ride/motor around on. Get tired of pedaling, use pedal assist, when tired of that, just use full electric. Or DECO e-motorcycle, start at <40k, and great fun, if not living in metro area. Options abound ... just need to start. ENJOY

Interesting ... those ordering NETA at auto show, may be receiving at the end of the month. Post 1 hr ago on NETA FB Group

Might want to reconsider, as the DECO give you more power, more battery (power & usable ah s) & better warranty. https://m.facebook.com/lpmonkeyshop/posts/4183513461777242

Bread isn't exactly high on the 'danger list' And if he's worried about Candida, he better start cutting sugar, dairy and a lot more from your diet.
