Do you pick up your queue number for Desk 8 from inside the main building as before,  or is it from the new building on the left opposite the new 90 day report building ?  First time doing it since construction of the 2 new offices. Thanks.

 

 

 

New building on the left

An Indian pal of mine told me a couple of years back about the exact same thing,his words were "they look for gormless/unintelligent looking westerners in order to try and scam them".....

Just now, JimTripper said:

How would that scam work? They are in a foreign country. Do they force me to buy a watch in a back alley somewhere.

As another poster has earlier replied.....ask them

There is a very good electrical repair guy on 3rd Road near soi 19 have used him many times call round and ask him before you start sending it away.....he`s honest and not expensive...

Possibly because a MG won't make it past 4 years. And their values will be next to nothing  by than. Those that know , know I'm not exaggerating.

Ha! Those that know, know you're talking nonsense.

 

Last September, I sold an MG ZS EV which was just over 4 years old. Got a fair price for it.

 

It drove like new and looked like new the day I sold it.

Lots of knowledgeable folk come on here LOL....

The Red King, entire season just out.

Remake of The Wicker Man with a female police sergeant of Indian descent in the lead role.

Not to mention the lady of the manor is black and the retired policeman has a mail order Thai bride.

 

Surprisingly good with a bit of tongue in cheek wokeness, decent acting, and well written.

Beautiful scenery and photography.

Well worth a watch.

Subtitles wanted please....cannot find any?

Why?

I rent a couple of one bedroom Thai houses for 3,000 baht a month each. Price went up this year from 2,500 baht per month.

Personally I would not want to live in one but staff are quite happy to stay there.

 

 

 

There are village houses nearby to me going for 1,000 baht per month...but we are not talking about village houses it`s about a Holiday Rental in a Tourist Island......
