Ex-girlfriend tries to steal 10 motorcycles

Probably true. A post from a ' newbie ' just stoking the ashes in the forums fire. -
Ex-girlfriend tries to steal 10 motorcycles
Denim replied to Alexzweiner's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Seriously, even if there were a legal way to save something from the wreckage , the legal fees would probably wipe out a lot of any value of the motorcycles you succeed in saving. There is a saying here. Don't invest in anything you can't afford to walk away from.. You have not mentioned how much money you stand to lose. What figure are we talking about ? -
AOC under investigation for Met Gala dress reading "Tax The Rich"

I am not actually attending the hospital or talking to any medical staff. Our neighbor is often poorly and I take her to the hospital at all times of the day, once at 2.00 in the morning. No people around except emergency room staff. To fill in the time while I wait I check my pressure. Always higher than at home. Same when I take my wife to her dentist in Bangkok. While waiting I stroll around the hospital checking out 2 or 3 of the machines that are out for the public to use.

I have an Omron as pictured above but not sure if is calibrated correctly. The readings I get are lower than any I get at various hospitals I have used and its nothing to do with being nervous in a hospital environment.

I thought healthcare in Thailand was supposed to be cheap?
Denim replied to Startmeup's topic in Health and Medicine
My dentist too , Doctor Hemawan at Paolo Kasetsart. Took my mother there when she was over. Still says the best dentist she ever had . -

If history is going to be dragged into it then we should return the UK ( up to Hadrians Wall ) to Rome who it belonged to for about 400 years. USA should be handed back to indigenous Indians and New Zealand to the Maoris. Argentinians of European descent should repatriate themselves to Spain etc etc. History is exactly that ........... history.

Buying townhouse second hand vs new
Denim replied to Snugs08's topic in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership
I have sold three properties in Bangkok. No problem and the same goes for buying if you do your homework. There is one BIG advantage in buying secondhand and it is worth considering. If you buy property in a moobahn that is already three or more years old you at least get to see the worst picture since everyone will have done their extensions etc. Some of these can be real eyesores. Any new built village looks good when it opens for sale. But once the owners move in there is no telling what they will do to their property. I have seen properties painted completely purple or pink whatever including all doors etc !! Hideous walls and awnings etc. So....secondhand you can escape the fate of having the new owner next to your new house turning his into a slum that reflects badly on your place.. In addition , when buying secondhand you get a good idea of who your neighbors are. Do you want to live next door to someone who has three pitbulls or a champion crow in the front garden. Would you like live next to a party animal who invites his friends around to sit in the garden and play loud music ? Stuff like this can happen when you buy new, It is a lottery. Sure , when they sell you your new house they will tell you there are rules and regulations that owners have to abide by. In reality , enforcing these rules can be very lax indeed. Above all....don't rush. Take your time and look at as many places as possible and try to talk to as many people as you can in the places you like to make sure your big investment doesn't turn into a nightmare. -
Should co-owners pay for EV scooter charging.

Only Lithium batteries do that. Guy in the clip was like Corperal Jones : -
Jumjim. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100088869932463 Nice looking place. You often find little places like this in Petchabun , set up behind a dam or reservoir. I look for them on google maps then go exploring. The prices for the tents are a bit high considering you can get a hotel in town for 350 up , but on the other hand you won't be getting the beautiful view.

Good news !! None of them are coming within 4 hours of my patch ! Maybe the kindly Thais will rename the town Vodkathani to make them feel at home or even Nakorn Babushka

There are few real paradises that can survive the onslaught of mass tourism. Phuket is not one of them.

I've learnt some new words. Well done Rooster. Pity they don't allow swear words from around the world. I'd be in with a chance if they did. -
