This guy talked me into this style of shaver, though didn't care for the need to replace heads so often. Although didn't expect the Durablade to last 5 years either, and they last about 1 year, maybe. As I posted earlier, bought one here on LAZ, died, but before that, ordered more & heads from USA. Don't know if he did any updates since 4 yrs since have, and not ready to change.

I believe same ones BritMan2 suggested, from Makro:

BS ... where do you people come up with this krap. Thais mourn just as much as everyone else, from loss of loved one, child, friend. People are the same worldwide, losses are grieved, especially sudden, younger, unexpected more so of course. To lose a child, I can't imagine and hope I never find out. A wife, husband, partner, best friend you've loved for years, that's traumatic. Older folks on borrowed time or diagnosed terminal, a bit easy to deal with.

Very firs thing that needs to be done, is buyer get approved for a mortgage for sale price. The rest is normal processing in any sale. That mortgage will pay off wife's mortgage, which will release chanote/house to be transferred. When we sold last house, nobody (3) applying for a mortgage could get qualified for 1 reason or another. So when they signed contract, we asked for small deposit (non refundable) to take off market, with 3 month window to get approved for mortgage. When buyers came to look at house, and stated, 'yea, we want, have to get a mortgage' ... I just laughed. Both houses we sold were to cash buyers.

Ignorant tourist doing no research prior to visit... ... nuff said 3rd world tourist traps ... where's the surprise.

Depends when you 'attended' the funeral. Body held at house for 3 days, if possible, then off to bbq, and would thing those going to get emotional, already did so prior to the bbq. Not much difference than the USA, having an emotional viewing, day/night or so before, then at gravesite not so much.

'sport plus' is in the driving mode ? For MG ... eco, normal, sport At MG & PEA CS, don't notice any difference timewise in charging, though didn't pay attention to actually kW reading. Only time I noticed a difference was at MG/Hua Hin, noticeably slower, but charging cable was noticeably thinner, so either original was smaller or replaced with smaller cable than local PKK/municipality's MG dealer's cable.

Do NOT mention the sale price, let the land office state the appraised rate, which is what I've/we've done on every sale. You can find this out ahead of time, or just look at your paperwork when you bought the house. as chances are, within 3 years it hasn't changed, or if so, very little. This is 2018 info, and I think changed a bit since 2010, as I thought it was 10%, sliding scale down, 5 to 1 yr of ownership. But apparently 3.3%, if that info is current. https://www.sansiri.com/en/news/thai-property-taxes-explained-what-you-need-to-know-286/

Y'all should discuss that in PMs.

Aside from the negative comment of what if, she did or didn't, primary residence or not, but 83k sounds about right, depending on sale price of house. Less than 5 yrs, and it is a higher tax rate, I think, along with possible income tax via profit of sale, though doubtful, since only 3 yrs old. Actually 83k sounds low, but depends on sale price. It reads like, she wants out of the mortgage herself, so can't see any negatives. As that liability is all hers. If you break even or make a few, then all is good. It's not in her best interest, for you to just walk away, so I'd ignore most of the previous replies. Next time, buy a condo.

Yet another fake news Op-Ed. Shouldn't it be ... "Russian investors wisely taking advantage of the buyers market after covid shutdowns hits the island of Phuket hard" As the older, family folks with that kind of money, surely aren't on the draft/conscription list for the RU military. Wanting to move their money out of RU because of financial sanctions, is a good reason. Doing that via China banks is quite easy, so I read. Doubt they're taking Thai jobs also. Since illegal, and do they really want them. Use a bit of common sense, it's not hard, and you avoid the BS.

So he says ... and with some of the new fines prices I've seen, 2000 is definitely a possibility, as is 5000 baht. Hope he learned his lesson ... follow the law, as there are consequences. ...it's not rocket science. Anyone planning on cruising my area/PKK, as I was O&A the other day, and noticed a few new speed cameras on Phetkasem rd/Hwy #4. Might want to use that cruise control set @ 90kph as I do now.

If the soap opera happy public didn't support these influencers/YTer, then the market and their annoyance wouldn't be there. I think people should be required to get permits to publish content not about themselves and themselves only. As it is a commercial business for profit, and should require a release form signed. They are not news agencies, which also need permits/licenses and are accountable for their reporting (in theory).

Saw Rory Gallagher open for 10CC .. there's a mismatch. Amazing who got airplay, and who didn't. Strange bookings & beginnings for many. Bluesology w/Reg Dwight (Elton John) touring with Isley Brothers, that Hendrix did a stint with ???? Reg also doing a stint with the Hollies. SRV & Bowie never happened, except on 1 album. SRV only offered $300 per show on tour to play. Along with not sure if Double Trouble would open all shows. So they all cancelled the contract. Apparently SRV was 'complicated' at times, as his wife & cocaine seemed to be an issue with Bowie and his manger. Saw Beck & SRV tour, and at the beginning they ended the shows together n stage playing a song. They alternated headlining, but by the end of the tour, they didn't play together and didn't get along at all. Egos got in the way, or so reported.

Yes, some on many 'western' motorways, unless a certain size scooter, CCs, they are not allowed. No news here ... just another farang complaining about being caught violating the laws.

@ 3:18 of vid:

Sea Hunt ... classic TV, and probably the main influence that lead me to diving.

I don't know about that, as he had to leave the US to get noticed. And the British invasion, many were playing 'black' blues music that couldn't get air time in the US, unless a white guy was playing it.

Sadly it is endless. Just hit the headliners, most should be familiar with. Was going to list Cuba, but the US cut & ran at first sign of trouble ???? All the failed regime changes in S. America & Africa. It's mind boggling.

This isn't a LGBQXYZ+ issue, it's a children's rights issue of parents knowing what's best for their children, until they are adults. You need parents consent for any medical procedure or surgery on a child. This should not be different We all know teens are so mature and never change their mind: ... I want to be an astronaut ... I want to be a nurse ... I want to be a fireman ... I want to be a lawyer ... I want to be president ... I want to save the world ... I want to be a priest ... I want to change my sex Changing you mind is easy after thinking it through or experience something new ... changing your body back, not so much.

This sounds familiar ... "we'll be with you as long as it takes" ???? https://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-europe-64710795 USA didn't stick around long enough for: Vietnam Korea Syria Iraq Afghanistan Libya Egypt ... the list is endless US presidents and politicians can't even keep promises they make to Americans ????

Only on this forum. I personally don't know anyone who cares or talks about the UA/RU conflict, unless in reference to the fake news for price increase/gouging.

Local Makro sells 3 can pack of Brookes for 177 baht.

Would this be the same public that burns their trash, doesn't recycle, and drives their ICE vehicles that pollute around ? Buy a second ICE vehicle instead of a solar system for energy ? You referring to those hypocrites that talk about the problem and make it worse instead of trying to better things ? Those people, the ones that want others to fix what problems they create.

Not the jet skies fault, but the drivers. I certainly wouldn't rent one if told to stay right here in 'this' bay, so if renting at Patong and told to stay there, not allowed to cruise over to Karon or Kata. I've rented before, if not able to rent a boat, depend where cruising around at. Great fun.
