I DONT KNOW WHERE YOU GOT THAT FIGURE FROM  but my next payment due Monday will be around 35,200 well under what your saying and going down despite the bi-annual increases to the pension . The actual 28 day payment is $1,700.80 which the basic amount which all overseas pensioners get .

It would appear we don't all get the same aged pension payment.

Thanks again.

Thanks for that. You have any idea if any significance of the A marking on the switch, circled with the arrow ?    

Morning all. I hope someone out there might be able to offer some advice. I've bought a pair of lights for my Aerox. Took to my local, provincial Yammy dealer to have wired up. After several hours they gave up & said not possible. If anyone can offer some advice or possibly suggest where I might try to see if the lights can be wired to the Aerox.

Thanks in advance.

Find a buyer to take THAI 100% private and get the Thai taxpayer out of this long-running financial disaster.

And where do you think they might find a buyer ? Ain't gunna happen !

????

I guess I'm in a pretty fortunate situation. Next door town house was unoccupied for long time. Very rundown. I offered a minimal amount to rent. Now have a garage & workshop-shed.

I guess technically you are correct. But that comment is a bit harsh.

Unless someone shot at the police they should have never fired on the truck no matter what they were thinking it was.  The one who killed the kid needs to get the death sentence.

The one who killed the kid needs to get the death sentence. Not likely. Inactive post for a while most likely.

With DTAC you can do it from their mobile apps. 

 

AIS has a mobile top-up page:https://topup.ais.co.th/topup-fe/topup?lang=en

 

You can do it at 7/11.

Not if it's AIS.

You can wear socks. It has more to do with almost no rubber under the shoe (not sure the correct word) and no arch support. I checked many mall in Bangkok and did not find anything and I've been wearing this model for 7 years so I know the exact size needed. 

Me thinks this is what you're referring to.  "Racing flats, or simply flats, are lightweight athletic shoes designed for "long distance" track and field, cross country, and most often, road races. They differ from normal training shoes mainly by the lack of a substantial heel (hence the name)."

Book Depository.

Ok. Thought you might have been referring to DASA book cafe.

One year back I ordered and paid for 5 books from this shop, 3 turned up, the other 2 have never arrived.

 

E-mails to their office in UK waste of time, kept getting comments like 'maybe you should visit your local PO and check' etc. Never again. 

What shop are you referring to ? 

You might be interested in having a look at DASA book cafe in BKK. Just a thought.

Fair amount of rain here in Issan  over the past 24 hours

Isaan covers a bloody BIG area !

You thought of going into the local PO & asking ?

As a matter of interest.. why would Centrelink have your Thai address ? Don't you retain an Aussie address ? Relative or friend. As far as Centrelink are concerned, I'm travelling, not residing overseas. As mentioned above, MyGov is the way to go.

Where are the Mods when you need one ?

A couple of options. 1. Go every day.  2. Go to the service desk & ask.

Maybe not xmas style gift giving.  If you're coming from an occidental country, bring some kind of treats they don't have out here.  A sampler box of chocolates for example, but be aware the tropical heat.

 

 

Am I missing something here ? Tropical heat ??? OP is meeting future MIL in the US. Northern hemisphere last time I looked. You know, white Christmas & all that, especially in a northern state.
