I now have considerably more time on my hands and I finally want to fulfil one of my many dreams: get a dog. Growing up, we always had dogs at home and now I'd like my wee boy to have one also and think a German Shepherd or Doberman would be a good match for the family. Ideally, a puppy in need of a good home, but understand that most people here breed them from $$$, so I suppose I'll have no other choice but to go to a breeder. Any suggestions in the Korat / Isan area? German Shepherds or Doberman only. For various reasons, am not interested in other breeds or strays.

Tourism safety concerns: Thai Government urged to reassure China

If it means less of "them", then I sincerely hope a few more scandals hit the headlines soon... -
You appear to have me mixed up with somebody else. Have never set foot on Phuket Island.

Sounds logical. I felt a bit daft asking for a new well when we already had one. 1k/m really sounds very reasonable.

Bought a piece of land off a neighbour recently, which has a hole/well dug on it. Approximately 4m deep and about 1.5 m in diameter. This is fed from the water table, by the way. Thing is, there's no pipe/wall - just a hole. I plan on hooking a solar powered pump up to this well to water new durian trees on the new parcel of land. Question: should I have some kind of pipes (e.g. those big cement rings) lowered into the well or will it be fine just the way it is? I definitely have to do something at the ground level as this soil is not stable and tends to crumble easily. I can't take care of the ground level issue until I know what I should do with the well.

Good bye and good riddance.

Blood sample tubes sold as sweets by Thai school kids, sparking outcry

If the vendor didn't know what these are, he/she is ignorant. If he/she knew what they are and sold them anyway, he/she is a piece of scum! -

What a witty retort that was. Did it take you long to come up with it? That's a good boy. -

University student falls for double scam, losing 350,000 baht
djayz replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
When I was going to university all those moons ago, I didn't have 10k for gambling and I most certainly didn't have 350k for "police". So, either I was incredibly poor by Thai standards, or this student isn't your average Thai Student but one from a more affluent background. If that is infact the case, then it's probably just his monthly pocket money that he has lost, so no big deal. -
2 - 3 weeks ago was at an avocado farm/plantation in Korat province. The owner is growing lovely avocados which he sells mainly at the gate or online. He uses a hybrid (correct word when talking about a plant which is a mix of two plants?). So, I think yes, it's possible, however, cultivars like Hass don't seem to like it here in our neck of the woods, so you're going to have to find a tree that can grow in this climate. From what I can tell, avocados don't seem to be too fussy when it comes to soil type, but they don't like having wet feet.

Aging Thailand agonises over welfare state as elderly subsidy cut
djayz replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
"welfare state"??? I must get them our dictionary. One place is too generous with the welfare they hand out, other places aren't doing enough to help.
