This is certainly not for our benefit, we will be taxed on every transaction, even giving son pocket money. First money was precious metals then the illusion of gold and silver then paper now the illusion of money. Say something not accepted, and your digital funds will soon be terminated. I would not be surprised if owning too much gold will be prohibited, as they did in the USA in the 1930s. As said "You vil own nosing and be happy Ja"

Hi all, Does anyone have any idea how I can get a green book for my beloved Honda, Steed 400. I have had this bike now for the last 12 years, I have tried several times to get a Green book through a Big Bike shop and paid a lot of money but still no green book. So I have parked it up in Isan for the last few years and with me returning to Thailand soon I would dearly like to get it legally registered. What is the easiest way to get this done and is it possible? Cheers for any advice.

What is needed to stay for 4 months married saying with family cheers

Cheers for that, I feel like I am up the creek without a paddle, Just booked the ticket till March I need a visa for 4 months. My Son is growing up, and the family have not seen him in all these years due to the flu virus. As said, I normally get an o visa if I stay 6 months. Can I show a credit card with a value of 10K I do not have the 400000B in the bank have a reasonable income. What alternatives if I want to stay 4 months cheers

Hi all, A little advice. I used to go to Hull consulate for my married "o" visa for a month or two to visit my wife's family in Sakhon, a simple job. However now I see that when I apply online for the same visa "o" Non-resident I am asked for 10,000 pounds in the bank? Anyone have any advice on this, am I applying for the correct visa, has it changed. We're intending to stay with the family for some 4 months, would the O visa be the correct one to apply for. Cheers for any help

"Iraq was a disaster" Yes, we British supplied him with everything to make it a disaster and never said a word while the money rolled in. Your replay to my post shows symptoms of mass hypnosis. With respect. So Cruise missiles are far better than barrel bombs used by Bashar al-Assad. You shock me with your one side view "Mass Murderer" No countries in the World have killed more than the UK and the USA Nato. It would be funny if not so serious. Ops the drone just hit a wedding party in Afghanistan and shucks! we thought it was a gang of armed men. Propaganda rampant. Concentration Camps we think Nazi. Well no it was we British in the best possible taste in South Africa killed thousands of Boers in the worst ways. Now as to the rest of my post, being silly ? Would that be due to the inability to answer? "Belgrade, the west went in to stop MUSLIMS being mass-murdered" what a load of hogwash. So that pesky Putin could say the same thing. To stop Russians being killed by Ukraine forces. We Bombed all those people to stop them from being killed by others, LOL. I stop here, as it is your reply that really does not warrant the time. With respect Sir. And thanks for the invite. Oh, did you know Ukraine has been bombing civilians and blaming it on Russia?

So let me try to understand this. The Bombing of Belgrade was ok, made good TV and most cheered as kids civilians die. Killing Saddam Hussein was OK I mean he had WMDs oh no he didn't. Bombing Syria was Good we know our TV said so what more proof is needed Killing Muammar Gaddafi like a pig dog was good made good TV what? The Show on TV while Women and kids died in Iraq was all justified Using Drones to kill in Afghanistan is great, we did it all in the name of? Now this pesky Putin he is very bad man, he stops money laundering Biolabs and stops CIA and The Clintons Bidens and the rest all loose money. I mean the cheek of it who gave Russia the right to invade the old Capital of Russ. Give more money to kill people while the rich get richer and the young get killed. What happened to Thou shall not kill Do you think for one moment, we have all been conned?

And Julian Assange? This is a war of Propaganda, nothing more.

Cheers, sad to hear Noi did that to him after all he did for her and daughter, good to hear he is well and about. Any contact email for him would be appreciated. Cheers

Cheers for that, hope he is ok. I was back in 2018 and none even heard of No1 Bar, sad how time changes everything. The Bar was very popular since 2005 when it opened with many regulars. Do you know if his wife went with him, as I know he had some land out on the Kalasin road. Heads up

Sounds crazy but true, a nice chap too

Not that I know of

Some years back there was a Bar in Khon Kaen called No1 Bar run by a New Zealand Scotsman called Dave. Does anyone know if Dave opened another bar or just moved out of town? Any info would be appreciated as I would like to look him up again, long time old pal since he opened the bar in 2005 Maybe someone remembers the Bar, as it was very popular for a long time with many regulars. Cheers

Yeh, Well one would expect that in Thailand you are correct but not in the UK, you see for a Thai person's perspective living in the UK they would naturally expect to see Englishmen not Somali or Nigerian and Pakistani. A little confusing for Thais that still have resect for their country and culture. Hard for the average westerner to comprehend that have been indoctrinated with diversity.

Hi All, I am thinking of a permanent move back to Thailand to some land given to my son by the wife's family. I have live in Khon Kaen before for some time and realise prices have gone up in the land of smiles but compared to the UK and the way things are going I do feel I will be better off in Thailand. As an example for the costs, see below my out goings. Council Tax gone up to £140.00 PM Water no meter £87.00 pm Gas and Electric £490.00 Internet 100mb £70 pm could get cheaper Virgin House Insurance £100.00 pm I live in Rotherham, so food is relatively cheap plus we grow our own veg however the wife from Sakhon Nakhon is fed up says she never sees a white person pass the gate. So we have decided to sell up but a smaller house in the UK and move to Thailand Hope this helps with the comparison
