  1. My details were copied from my pink card ID, they then added the passport number correctly, on my first visit, second visit only took my pink ID card as that was enough to locate my details from my ID card number. Certificate provided is accurate ????
  2. My second Thailand Pfizer today third counting the UK shot so feeling good Brought a smile to my face when my number was called out to go for the injection, all the Thais around me smiled, waved pointed to me, then the doorway, to make sure I knew it was my turn, lovely people, even the hard worked nurses were smiling today ????
  3. I thought I might be able to create a little comfort and joy, but the apathy was just overwhelming ???? My wife did surprise me with a turkey ???? kindly dressed and cooked by the mother in law
  4. Sorry you missed out on this traditional organic Isaan Turkey ????
  5. Shortly after I arrived we painted the house inside and out, to finish off I used a glass cleaning spray to do the windows which I would guess never cleaned since installation. They sparkled and set the house off well Obviously this was noted and not to be repeated!!! a month later my daughter took it on herself to clean the windows with half a bucket of water and a damp cloth bless her ???? We had a good laugh and did them all again ???? Have not had to do them since
  6. My wife appears to be happy taking care of me........I'm not above cooking, Washing hanging clothes out, cleaning. All indications suggest my wife feels these jobs are better performed by herself. Who am I to argue, once I had shown her how to use the new top loading automatic washing machine ???? I do get to a bit of heavy work carrying grass, lifting bale's, hauling manure, I get to inject the cattle when required, so face danger ???? I guess that makes me alpha male by default. I don't need to impress makes life easy
  7. Keep your eyes on the target, that being to obtain the annual extension Agree with those that suggested accepting the easy way out covid extension, cost another visit is all Same with those who moan about a trip to the bank, it's not the end of the world but it is the key to staying another year, a very minor inconvenience
  8. Well if hi-so are the only people who put socks on to use wellington boots I guess so ????
  9. I am still trying to work out my first Christmas in Thailand, the whole traditional Christmas is not really going to work, maybe small gifts for the children? The younger ones will not know of Santa Claus, so that magic is not viable, I guess yes it will be gifts from me and my wife to the children, commercial it is then ???? As for your other comments, living in Isaan means largely unaffected, already 'got off' to a large extent Merry Christmas ????⛄
  10. Any guy who doesn't need to change when he gets married has led a boring life!!
  11. I had my first Pfizer Feb this year, (UK) just had my second early Nov (TH) third is my Thailand second end of this month so for me a 6 months wait for another shot if required seems fine, no worries, not sure why there is such a rush for the boosters but I guess it's down to individual circumstance. I just got lucky with the way things fell into place I guess.
  12. I look forward to every day bringing a surprise, apart from the usual tasks I enjoy on the farm, never quite know what will occur from one day to the next ???? typical Thai lifestyle I guess, suits me I sleep easy ???? woke up the other day one of the cows had calved gave no hint at all! Day before trip into town son needed new jeans, day before that look around the elephant festival, today shifting some loose straw with the hand cart, fixing up a wind shield around the outdoor cooker. We'll you get the idea, on rare occasions these days I get to go out and cycle a few klms to the local coffee shop, three trips to the farm a day keeps me in reasonable shape......just ????
  13. The school my son attends fines those arriving on motorcycles without helmets 10 baht this appears to work so there is progress
  14. I was a party animal for 30+ years relationships lasted as long as the girlfriends could put up with it! So over time I guess breakups were largely down to me ???? When I finally calmed down and became more relaxed without a beer in me, it happened to coincide with meeting my current wife Just lucky I guess ????
  15. There are many who have faced severe financial hardships due to covid being unable to ply their trade, or few customers, taxi drivers, hotel workers, food vendors in tourist areas, motor cycle rentals, barmen, bargirls, waiters, laid off factory workers, Airline staff, to give a few examples None need to be singled out in these hard times and be told, tough, "you should have entered a more suitable profession"
  16. Self interest defines a person much more than intelligence, intelligence however may facilitate a more accomodating mechanism
  17. From what I see Thailand is well experienced in vehicle refurbishment, should have them looking like new in no time.
  18. Have to agree from a personal viewpoint, had my first Pfizer jab in the UK way back in Feb, when my doctor here found out arranged for a Pfizer jab early Nov, recently asked why had not gone back for the 2nd dose, said already had 2, not what she wanted arranged 3rd Pfizer shot on 28th this month, a bit spread out, but I reckon made it this far ok not worried My wife on the other hand paid for moderna is one jabbed with second in new year
  19. I have been taught well, not necessarily in topics that would score well in a mensa test, but probably a top end score in making the most of what I have in life ????
  20. My understanding is, can use the account, but 400k balance must be correct for the required periods is all. You should be ok
  21. Speakers less used in our area now, most communication is by line app, followed up by nearly as efficient word of mouth ????
