  1. OK, that's a bit more info, so not exactly a 'beach' holiday. Phuket Town is great, especially since the buses are running again. First 10ish times overnighting in BKK, I hated it, but didn't explore. When I did, now, considerate one of the best places to visit in Thailand, if not going for Andaman Sea 'beach' holiday. Or Surat Thani / Phang Nga area. Has all the good & bad, of a huge metro, with lots of gems, out of the slum tourist areas. Plenty of hostels to choose from, or inexpensive private rooms. Overall cost about the same, along with great bus system, aside from rush hour. Whole area is in gridlock anyway, BTS/MRT might be faster, if making the 1st trains, though I really do prefer the buses. Planning essential of course. Canal market, riverside is usually where we hang out during the day. Actually prefer the west side of the river; Khlong San & Bangkok Noi (Wang Lang) areas. Bang Rak or ChinaTown / Rattanakosin Island works well also.
  2. I actually saw them 'wild', I think. Though checking a couple bird sites, they aren't suppose to be there, Udon Thani, in the wild anyway. Kind of surprised I saw them, along the roadside, and no houses nearby. This gal might point you in the right direction, is she's still raising: https://www.porpeangfarmthailand.com/post/raising-quail-in-thailand
  3. Competitive bar on other side of canal.
  4. Best advice
  5. Spotted in UT, haven't a clue about Trang.
  6. used for whatever you connect it to.
  7. oops ... ???? Note to self: do NOT post after smoking a doob
  8. Since yours / OP's land, could put the lines in the ground, from meter placement. We did, though very short run.
  9. Not sure about useless, as curtains will block sun from heating up a few meters, and restrict it to a few cms.
  10. Have... doubtful Just research market prices. Failing that, for ballpark price, insured value+10% for private, +20% for dealer.
  11. 1st wife thought along those line, but jewelry. Would take my rings off in thunderstorm ... ????
  12. Hard to follow your post, but PEA at, Muang, PKK, the first 140m from their line is/was free. Any extra and need to pay 50% of cost. Luckily that took it right up to our wall, almost, so no extra was charged to us. What you describe, 'shack', I believe is a temporary line & meter, charged at a higher rate. Once house is done, blue book issued, then they will install pole/lines & new meter. That's how our 3 builds went at 2 different province.
  13. What MG parts have you been waiting for ?
  14. Too late ... quote below in red, was stated by me, NOT seedy Apologies ...
  15. I haven't read any negatives about MGs, from MG owners, or EVs from EV owners. Go figure. When I do, I take note. I ignore most of the Ant-Thai/China/EV/MG posts. As all seem to come from ignorant people, or non owners ... IMHO
  16. Ebike would be my choice. More versatile than scooter ???? Also, JIC your local area bans ????, as Patong did. Ebike all shape & sizes, and modifiable. Whatever you decide, get w/lithium battery.
  17. Reading comprehesion Just another anti China & now anti MG thread. Big surprise considering the posters.
  18. SEALUP XLP- Q8
  19. Another Mango / Papaya comparison ... irrelevant to anything.
  20. One OP was considering is not more a hazard to others, or a danger to ride, than a bicycle. Less so, as has a smaller profile, probably will not be operated as fast. The one I had was pretty cool, and felt very safe scooting around on it, till it died. Probably a one or so off, as it was a highly rated one, and not so cheap (20k). Would do 35-40 kph if wanting, no thanks & 25 was way fast enough. Knowing the road, I did feel safe at top speed, but if doing consistently, it would be wise to wear a helmet ... again, no thanks. E-bike is another alternative, though good one is not cheap. Various styles & sizes. Someone mentioned shopping with, and could easily attach panier bags of various styles & sizes, if wanting to keep a smaller profile. Or fit it out for over the road travel & out & abouts ???? Doubles as good exercise if not using 'motor' only mode. Can pedal or pedal motor assisted. I actually enjoyed using the e-bike more than E-MB & car, when at the rental, and closer to town.
  21. Aside from being able to 'fuel' itself, the USA is one of the few counties, that can feed itself - wiki The current shift toward socialism, and of course, being the worlds corporate security force has probably been detrimental to the strength of the $$$. Or it would probably be back around ฿40/$1 ... pre-Gulf War BS, and increased debt/deficit. Fake war, unnecessary bail outs, and now socialism has taken it's toll on the economy.
