  1. Hi Jeff1,

    Just take a professional international moving company.

    They know what and how to do.

    They will provide you with a lot of information and rules and regulations if you ask for a door to door quotation.

    I just had some talks with Crown/Santa fe-Silverhawk/Kotaisan for my future move.

    May be pay some more but have a lot of worries less.

  2. See penelope advise Thai golf website.

    If you only play about 2 rounds why to travel around with your (heavy) golf bag.?

    Most courses do have clubs rent possibilities.

    caddy tip between 100 and 200 baht.

    Be prepared for a lot of water on the flat courses .

    Pak Chong (180 km north-east of BKK) has some hills.

    many hotels offer golf day trip but they are rather expensive.

    phone the course and ask for opening times (many are closed on monday!).Ask when sport day tariff apply (very cheap) and arrange a private taxi for the part of the day.

    Great fun :o

  3. I found your reaction too negative.

    I am planning my retirement already long time and I am well aware of the positive and negative(like everywhere in the world).

    I am just a member like you.Banning is not in my vocabulary.

    If people become too personal (insulting or so) I simply don't react any more.

    May be because I am 61 years old and 27 years married , I accept certain aspects of life.

    The world is not black or white.Enjoy life :o

  4. anamore,

    you not really answer to the topic question.

    However your observations of the forum reactions are nice.

    It is like always in life neither black nor white with a lot of greys!

    Ellis,N

    Next August I will be married for 27 years with a Thai.

    22 years spend in Holland-Germany and last 5 years in Indonesia.

    Hope for at least another 27 years more :o

    My wife is visiting this website frequently and has a lot of fun.

    We will retire in Thailand by the end of this year.

  5. What a future!

    finish work in July .That is positive but can hardly been a long career.

    In Pattaya you will teach your GF how to drive.

    UK, no option you have trouble there, but you would not have a chance.See forum reactions!

    Spain as explained by LC no chance to bring your GF.

    Timeshare has a criminal element attached to it!!(your statement)

    Europe is really waiting for you. :D

    Bring order in your own life before you drag somebody into it :o

  6. If you also make a lot of practice swings before hitting the ball, I suppose your game can last for a day :D

    If you are ahead of me, can you please let me pass? :o

    I still try to improve,without becoming too serious about it.

    However there is a rule for "slow play".

    :D:D:D

  7. To the golfers;

    My wife (Thai)and I are regular golfers.

    After my retirement (next december/january) we are planning to play about 2-3 times weekly (not in the weekends).

    Our home base is in Nakhon Ratchasima

    We will also frequently travel to discover the country.

    Would be nice to meet members of the forum on the course.

    My handicap; 24

    Wife's handicap; 28

    Like also to hear from you about experiences on the course.

    :o

  8. Some people react like he is from out of space,not knowing what a barfine is!

    To be honest I didn't either.

    Please realize that there are members NOT participating in the barscene. :o

    I must admit if you read all the posts,you can become quite an expert on many subjects :D

  9. I think it is a sad story,but not typical Bangkok.

    You see it in most of the big cities around the world.

    People who think that everything should be accepted just because they are tourists are also scaring me.
