  1. Can anybody recommend any good service to use in Bangkok? I have contacted these guys (https://www.testingforall.org/lateral-flow-travel-testing/) to send me an Antigen test but not sure i will receive it in time. I have 4 nights left
  2. Has anybody used the suite case wrap service at the airport? Is it still there? How much does it cost? I don't think one of my cases will make the journey!!!
  3. That's why China town was recommend to me many years ago. Apparently they are willing to buy all gold. Not sure what they would be offering though. Would be good to get standard market value.
  4. It is not Thai Gold. Again it's from Europe. Regarding Karats, im not sure. So would i get a better price in Europe or here in Thailand?
  5. It is gold jewellery that i purchased in Europe. A broken chain, some bracelets and bits of old broken and cut off bits of gold jewellery.
  6. I have some old gold jewelry that i would like to sell on. I did read many years ago that China Town in Bangkok was the best place to go as they give you almost market price. Is this true? Does anyone have experience selling gold in Thailand? Are there other better places?
  7. Is this the green slip that you get from the hospital after vaccination? It has both vaccination dates and serial codes on.
  8. Me and my 6 year old daughter will be traveling to the UK. She wont need a PCR test right?
  9. The other question that springs to mind is regarding the AIS app. In order to log in, the app sends you a OTP SMS to the number for you to log into the AIS app. Does this work in a foreign country?
  10. Dont you have to make a call or send an SMS within 6 months to keep it alive?
  11. I used them recently for a renewal of my daughters passport. They will tell you everything that you need. Payment upfront. Send all the documents by recorded delivery. It took about 8 weeks due to this COVID business. Reliable and safe from my standpoint.
  12. Hi All, I am going back to the UK for a while and would like to know about keeping my Thai SIM card for Thai banking. I have AIS but remember reading somewhere that DTAC would be a better option. I think it was something to do with topping up but can't remember. Can anyone share there experience with this matter and elaborate on anything that i may not have thought about. Thanks
  13. Still does not justify the rise. The rise Globally is also not justified
  14. Hi, I am trying to access the VFS Global website and it has been down since at least yesterday. Is there a new process for application for my wife? https://visa.vfsglobal.com/tha/en/gbr/ I am also concerned about the time it takes for the full process? VFS down ads to the concern.
  15. The glow plugs were dead. Once replaced, the truck started like new. Cheers
  16. OK So just to wrap things up here for anyone who may have similar issues. I did find a decent little garage in town in the end. The issue was indeed down to the glow plugs and once replaced, now starts like a new truck. Thank you for the help and input. Happy motoring!!
  17. I don't know if this was meant to be funny or not but this cracked me up 555. I can just picture you (an expat) there sitting in you recliner with a Leo in hand, smoking a pipe whilst the missus is building arches. "Hey love, a bit more to the left there with that one....." 55555
  18. Yes we were thinking of that. Maybe intertwine some plants as well as grow plants and bushes along the perimeter. I have noticed that the land behind, where the neighbors are behind seems to be.... contaminated due to water running out of a drain from the bathroom. We will therefore grow plants there and use the "clean" land for the fruits and vegetables, herbs and spices.
  19. I agree in that if it was my own house, i would most definitely go for concrete. However, this is the missuses family home and i believe they would be happy to accept any help. I will therefore go for a more cost effective option but you are right, concrete is a more durable solution.
  20. This is great info. I will keep this in mind when we go shopping in the next few days. Thank you.
