  1. Take the job. Move to Phuket alone. Scope the place out and see how the job fits, then move the family. Planning life in 5-year bites is not a bad strategy.
  2. The guys in the engine room do not know where they are. Only the helmsman has actual control of the wheel and the engine movement requests. But there will be a small group of watch officers on the bridge with him.

  16. And attaches a grinding wheel to the shaft so he can sharpen blades "in the field"
  17. Honda spare parts for small bikes can be ordered at the Honda dealer. Most Honda parts can be obtained from the biggest spares stockist and one smaller place. Yamaha with order spares. Kawasaki parts have to come from Lazada or the next biggest city dealership, but they will post/mail them.

  21. Once a year a certain running/drinking group in Bangkok has a river cruise. We used to stand semi-inebriated at the back of our boat and yell "You paid too much" as we passed the dinner cruise boats.
  22. Some idiot🤔 Local immigration office provides a list of what they need I return on the date they request and then they prepare all the paperwork while we wait. All I do is sign and sit in front of the camera.
