Can someone update me on the documents required when applying for a retirement visa extension at Phuket immigration when using the pension income confirmation/ letter from my embassy as proof of income? Thanks Felt

Thanks , in Chumphon already. Some rain and some rain but thats ok for me. Felt

Is there anyone who can update me on the weather situation in the Chumphon area today and the last few days! Rainy weather, floods etc. Driving up from Bangkok this afternoon so would like to be as well prepared as possible for areas with heavy rain / floods. Thanks in advance. Felt

This way the elite get what they want but want tell the population they want, or in other words investment by large foreign investors who can invest in a variety of 1 rai plots exploit the land and back out before a 5 year revision of the law. ???? Felt

Hmm..maybe the legalization of cannabis wasn't so smart after all. Drugs on top of an already huge problem with driving under the influence of alcohol does not seem like a very serious measure against traffic accidents Felt

Well yes, just hope they have fun and not end stuck in floodwater. Anyway no help in trying to persuade the ladies to postpone their gathering in Phuket so they are well and truly half way to Phuket. On the plus side, I heard earlier today from a local acquaintance in Phuket that at least at that time it was fully passable on Thepkasatri road, but of course that could change either way depending on the weather! Felt

Well, if all of Phuket is like this, the ladies will be mad at me, because then I will decide if it's gone to be a trip for them or not. Felt

Is the water still that high???? But to answer your question, in most cases the owner, except the, if any the insurance cover. Felt

Really, well I thought you mean by smoking a joint you'll be like pudding???? Felt

Thanks for the answers. Rain is no problem the ladies tells me because they have plans for activities other than sunbathing???????? Good that the flood waters have receded, but how is Thepkasattri from Talang to Phuket town. One of these "old charming ladies" is the driver and a Honda City is not exactly the car for "river" driving! Felt

Are there any local residents of Phuket who are in the area right now and can tell a bit about the flood situation so far today. I ask because I have a wife who has been planning to meet some friends tomorrow for a long time planned, two days midweek hotel break and I am trying to persuade them to postpone this, but as you know ladies who have made up their minds can be difficult to make change their plans???? Felt

Great, can't get any better than with a tram system in the middle of the roundabout???? Felt

The beach is ok for sun bathing and walking but the water is some of the worst in Thailand. Chao Praya have cleaner water. Felt 35

The proof is in the pudding????

Just a random question, has anyone tried a car subscription plan in Thailand and possibly have any experience with the companies below? Thanks Felt KINTO Thailand : คินโตะ (ประเทศไทย) (kinto-th.com) Car Subscription - Monthly Rentals in Thailand - Carzuno | Alternative to Lease, Hire Purchase and Buying A Car

Thank you for the answer. Unfortunately I have little mechanical knowledge, having said that I have owned both large bikes and some cars abroad. But as you say Thailand is altogheter another story. I have actually owned 2 cars here, bought new, but what made me instead choose to rent car when I needed it instead of owning a car was at the time no possibility of garage parking and not least see my car month for month worn down by weather and wind as well as, in my opinion, by other road users and others' carelessness in relation to other people's possessions. Now things have improved somewhat in recent years, but if you are a precise and picky person... it still is ???? As for the aforementioned City, there is a relative who is "thinking maybe" to sell and buy a newer model. Only one owner/driver from new however in no rush to sell and I am in no rush to buy. But even for an 8-year-old car, I must admit it has been kept extremely well, but as this relative works in biological research, and by that drives quite a lot, so one week could be in the North and the next in the South, so the car has 130,000 km on the odometer. Is it too much, do a car start to break down when driven that milage, engine, brakes, etc.,? I don't know, but what I have offered for now is that I pay for a full check of the car at a mechanical workshop and if they don't find something that needs to be repaired and is expensive beyond normal small parts then Im still a possible buyer. If it turns out that there is a need for thorough replacement of engine parts, the brake system, or major rust damage on/under the car, I will still pay for the car inspection, but that will be it. Why Im interested in a old car well I hardly drive except one t/r south in the cooler months. I have had some rental cars for longer periods the last years and when seeing less than 200km monthly on the teller well then there are no good argumentation to buy a Thbmillion car IMO. Felt????

My bad, explained wrong????. I have got an offer to buy a 2013 City. Im not selling. Felt

Thanks, allredy found it. Felt

So is what you saying that the dealer takes some 57% from the seller in profit when they sell it again????? On the other hand, but selfish thinking its maybe good to know because I have an offer on a Honda city 2013 private owned from new, want 310K so following the above room for bargaining. Felt

Anyone who have a link, to a second hand car price list in Thailand with car brands, models, years, etc. ? Thanks Felt

I was thinking HA injection but do not find any info on Samitivej`s webpage! Felt

Yes, I understand that I have to have a consultation with an orthopedist first and hear what he thinks. Incidentally, I found out that when it comes to PRP injections Samitivej has more reasonable prices than Bumrungrad, but so far I haven't found anything about Samitivej offering injections with Hyaluronic acid, maybe you know more about this!

I guess you mean self-absorbed????

Why weird? He may be retired and probably likes to do something during the day that not only benefits him but also the neighborhood. I would love to do the same myself, but all these stories about immigration who on a bad "hairday", even for innocent simple work like mowing the lawn can get you into trouble. I live in an apartment where they keep order inside and out, but the grass cutting stops at the last centimeter of the land they own and there it is actually a sidewalk that has not been visible since the building was new. As it is now, pedestrians are directed to go out onto the road and we all know how dangerous it can be here, or through half a meter of high grass. Felt
