  1. Smart choice to go to EU and use Belgian insurance. I just red it's the best in EU. The reason is government and private sectors are not fighting but working together in harmony! Unheard in the US or most EU countries.... NO waiting neither! "Belgium's healthcare system is one of the best in Europe. With a combination of compulsory health insurance and social security contributions, Belgium has a very well-funded system. In fact, since 2009, Belgium has consistently been one of the few countries that spends over 10% of its GDP on healthcare."
  2. Tomorrow I should see "beaver" in Isan if lucky... - sorry, no reports coming
  3. I got great curb side service here, Ubon Rachathani, by husband and wife. First time the husband cut and "burn fused" hiking hat adjustment strings to perfect length. "No pay money" he said when I asked how much. I gave 10b, he smiled happy. Today I puller off my hiking skirt and asked to shorten arms 5cm while I wait. "No problem" she said. She did fast good job. Asked "30 b okey?" I said Yes!. We all were happy. A small thing but makes me happy to be in Thailand! This is service 🙂
  4. I didn't see any squirrels at market....
  5. I'm hiring nice young Thai woman to assist me. Let se what the kilo price is after a week...
  6. If there were Q: "Would you be buying" results would be greater.
  7. Smoking in Spain was the single reason I didn't buy anything there. They smoke everywhere! Nothing can stop it. Thailand is Okey for me - not so much smoking.
  8. I know you are right and sensible BUT; When we get to 70s better take what you get. Just ignore all wise advice, go for it full steam and enjoy life! Who cares what their motives are? Just enjoy the ride with a young hot gal. Most of us have paid thousands for social security - let them take care of us when we go broke. Some of us have too much to spend - we need help! Thai women are known for good heart and great skill in that area, let them help us. OP - keep reporting how things go for you.
  9. ...but they all want to go The Big One.
  10. How? Where? Are you saying there's internal memory in copy machine?
  11. "What's common in Hurricane, Earthquake and Thai marriage?" "Ah, I dunno but sounds somebody's loosing his house......"
  12. I take my USB stick or Memory Card to Kodak. They pop it in and print.
  13. Pls, stop scaring young girls.
  14. 2 years ago I stayed on Jomtien beach and tried to use Rayong but they refused and said "Minimum of 3 hotel nights are required AND reported to them by the hotel". Then OK. Unless it isn't... goal posts are moving in LOS.
  15. I found State Train web site confusing to buy. I've done buying at other stations an hour prior to train arriving w/o problems. Who knows if still as easy? Just show the passport and cash.
  16. Thank you! I'll study it and load up and see if I get it working. I'm not good at this.
  17. I googled and found they say; IF you got "Office 365" .rtf app is included. I do have that. I don't think I ever use it. When I click old .rtf page menu "what to use" shows up but there is non Office 365 listed. How do I get it there?
  18. Ubon "Yuu Art Show 2024" was great! Great street food too. Anything from cheap chicken to expensive lobster tail. Nice to see so many young people doing arts and very well in Ubon. Yuu Cafe was absolutely packed. FREE entry, Band members were so young. Played 70% of US classic rock. Tonight more the same 🙂 I stopped looking dirty street and run down properties and focusing nice things. There's plenty to like and people are SO nice! I may stay here for an other week. 550B a day 4 two with made-to-order breakfast and bowl of rice soup is bonus.
  19. Could be helpful if you mention at least one, the easiest to use, and how to use it.
  20. How can I get them back? Many important files in that format. MS really fkd up this time! Can I use "Recovery" GoBack with Win 11? I used it many times with Win 10. Idiots; "WordPad is a word processor software designed by Microsoft that was included in versions of Windows from Windows 95 through Windows 11, version 23H2. Similarly to its predecessor Microsoft Write, it served as a basic word processor, positioned as more advanced than the Notepad text editor by supporting rich text editing, but with a subset of the functionality of Microsoft Word. Microsoft removed WordPad in Windows 11 24H2 and it has no successor."
  21. "People who support Cashless Society?" Those who don't have it...
  22. Just been to UR Immi and I must say "The Best"! No need to go to Laos since 30 days is enough for me. So friendly, polite, fast and no waiting for 30-day extension. I had Isaan gf with me and that added to smooth process but I've no doubt they are nice to all farangs. After years of Jomtien "services" I thought I'd gone to heaven... but I'm alive. PS. After clean and modern airport things went down a bit. Not much to see and not too clean streets etc. Hotels are cheap but street food not to Jomtien level in quality. Still OK. Temple markets are huge and great. Fresh fruits are great and low prices. Last but not least; Isaan gals are super nice! Very interested in getting to know old farangs like me. PS. There's Ubon Art Fest 2024 going at Yuu Cafe & Hotel (nicest place in town?). https://www.thailandfestival.org/events/719564b6-91a3-4533-962c-4b755cd52857
  23. Just tested and your are right - no change how they taste. Many other fruits go bad...
  24. You must be farang. Thai woman would never do that mistake....
