  1. Yup, looking at those figures there are not many expats living here anywhere near as cheaply as that. Most would struggle to get by on less than 20,000 and even then only if they owned where they lived and were paying no rent.
  2. I can imagine. Sound terrible. Waiing Aussies bumping into you all the time. Nightmare.
  3. If you don't mind slumming it and swallowing your pride , 227 grams of Imperial Butter ( unsalted ) from Big C in free plastic sealed box ........... 75 baht. Not a butter person so tastes OK to me.
  4. Yea. Take that down to Ladbrokes and let us know what odds you can get on it. Could be worth flutter.

    True vs 3BB

    Same here. They upgraded our package a few months ago and an engineer came around to install for free a new set top box with HBO and a lot of other stuff......no increase in fee. Very good deal now. Speed has always been good and service from engineers reliable.
  6. ???? The very first thing a local learns is how to wai. All parents are forever pressing toddlers hands together to get them to wai at the appropriate people. Once they have mastered this they are almost ready to take their place in society But first comes lesson number 2. How to be a litter bug. Most commonly this is achieved by the simple method of releasing the grip on the object or thing that has ceased to be useful or needed., no matter where or when this moment arises. Breaking this habit will take more draconian measures than 'urging' Putting up with flooding seems a lot easier.
  7. Usually 1000 a night. You need to book several nights. First night 1 baht Second night 1999 baht Third and Fourth nights etc .......1000.
  8. Within earshot of his wife. With his mates he said he was gonna get his moneys worth as often as possible.
  9. He's had the coming its the going that is the friction point. So much for snooze and you lose. Her agenda was sin and you win
  10. And then I woke up. You know the tide of craziness has reached you when your lady insists you stop referring to her as wife and use the term : Long term cohabiting aquaintance.
  11. Well done Lionesses. Congratulations to the whole team for lifting the ????
  12. That's how I viewed it. The funny twist at the end illustrates what can happen when you dont let the facts get in the way of your opinion..
  13. Well, perhaps you can get the moderators to change the title to something you find less offensive like : " Sick alt right video about maths "
  14. As far as I know it is 30 US for most countries. People have been recently and there is a recent thread on it by someone who went a few weeks ago. Search for it as it gives all the current info. If you live anywhere near Khon Khen there is also a Lao consulate there that issues visas.
  15. At that crossing it is common to apply for visa on arrival . Cost is 30 dollars I think or 1500 baht. Not sure about the e-visa.
  16. I've owned both. For city driving in heavy traffic automatics are less tiring. But if you live in the provinces manuals are fine. Manuals have come a long way in 53 years. Gone are the heavy , tiring clutches of the past. Now very slick and smooth so no difficulty changing gears. However, Thai women being generally shorter might find reaching the pedals more difficult and prefer autos. I would even be prepared to pay more for a manual as I like their versatility. Each to his own as someone has said.
  17. Cue the drunk idiot comments.
  18. The plastic bags you put meat into at Big C are worse. Impossible to open, especially if you are working on the wrong end. Only easy way it to touch some ice on the fish display. Easy peasy then.
  19. Problem is that outside the cities there are a lot that don't bother with it at all.
  20. I have used honey roasted sunflower seeds in mine but as you say , although you get a tasty loaf the price gets pushed up with every addition. I was contemplating using ground up cashew nuts or almonds but not tried yet. Both are tasty in banana cake.
  21. What information is wanted ?

  23. Like , you go to get yet another covid booster and they force you take take a few tokes of a spliff or vaccination certificate refused ?
