Interesting. Some years ago I bought a small house in name of wife. At the land office I was asked to sign a paper. I was told it was permission for her to buy. I was also told that I would have to sign similar permission for her to sell. Still true? 

sounds like an advert to me. 

Sorry, I was asking about British Consulate. Does it still have passport certifying service ?

Thanks.

Does the slimmed down Consulate in CM, still offer any services ? I need a certified copy of my passport.

 Thanks.

The guy who did the wiring for our swimming pool understood ground/earth wires OK. I asked him to be sure to include them.

When he had finished, I went to check. Sure enough, there was earth wires visible. Just in case, I pulled on them, they all went into the yellow pipe for approx. 3 inches !!!!

When will it be ?

What a great idea this app is for driving in Thailand. Unfortunately, I can not find it in English.

I found it in THAITECH today. Wonder why they put it on an English speaking forum !

This 'offence' has a name, like lese majeste is speaking bad of monarchy etc. I have forgotten the name, can anyone remind me please.

Many years ago, I was arrested because I accused an employee of theft, caught in the act !!! I was inger printed etc.  Only let go after I paid him some money. I wish I could remember the name of the offence ?

I contacted True and told them that I was leaving them unless they came up with a much better package. They phoned quickly. I have been upgraded to the top package and price reduced to 800 per month. I am staying !!!

Anyone know where to buy VINTAGE PORT in Chiang Mai ?

The real thing, not LBV etc.

Thanks

I can build you one, top quality. PM me if interested

Please can someone tell me how to surf the Dark Web.

My interest is only curiosity.

Thanks

Well, well, well. Why don't you make it, easy peasy, and so much nicer. They sell frozen pork sausage meat in Rimping

I feel cheated by BUPA. I was with the International cover for 20 years, then transferred to Thailand ten years . They refused to cover existing problem. This is dishonest !

Now I am wondering what will happen next year, after I now reached 70yrs. As I first joined over 30 years ago, they should continue to cover me. We will see.

I appreciate all the suggestions and will take them with me when we go.    For some reason I look forward to this trip even more than I have other trips in the past.    I know I'll find of interest exploring what there is from a WWII  perspective.

 

I'm a fan of museums and natural things like snake farms  etc, while the Missus is a  dedicated fan of night markets.  

 

 tx22cb,   You hold the distinction of being the only person I've heard say Singapore is not especially expensive.   I'll bet I'd like to trade assets with you.   555

 

But expensive or not, since I knew the scenario going into it,  and therefore won't be surprised,  I'll insure money does not diminish our fun.   I.E. the purse strings will not be drawn tightly

 

 

Any other suggestions?

 

 

You have to go to  the Writers bar in Raffles Hotel for a Singapore Sling, but wear trousers and skirt, not shorts.

Not slugs. When I try to pick it up, it dissipates, it's  similar to poo !

Every morning I find one or two of these in my swimming pool.

What are they ?

Anyone know ?

Imagine you marrying a 30 year older woman and having to live with her every day for years, just to be able to survive and send some money back to your parents. 

 

I think any normal person would go insane at some point. But of course the older men here, who are married to women that could be their daughters, would disagree. But I am sure they would never themselves want to live or have sex with a 30 year older person. 

 

"True love" in these (Grand) Daddy / Daughter relationships are extremely rare, in my opinion. Which also often shows, when the money runs out. And of course it impacts the women involved. Imagine you bringing home and showing your friends a Grand Mother-Girlfriend. They all know why you are with her, which would make anyone normal person sick, when thinking closer about it. I doubt the girls feel great about it... In ALL ways.

 

I know this will be hard to swallow for the Grand Dads here. But I do not care. If you are running around with a 30-40 year younger Thai-girl and you believe she really loves being with you, then you are simply stupid, naive as hell and living in Fantasy Land.

 

If you do not agree on that, then go have sex with a 30-40 year older woman and lets hear how much you enjoyed that. At least I can understand the men who find a much younger partner and inside knows/accepts, what it is really all about. But the guys who believe a 20-30 year old girl, really loves being with a 50-70 year old man are simply lost mentally.

 

 

You talk rubbish, every situation is different. I am 70 yrs. young and my wife of four years is now 23 yrs,.,  well grown up and just passed her "Barrister' exams, so she is intelligent. We are never separated. We often visit her parents and stay in small village, where we feel very welcome and comfortable. Her family often visit and stay with us. Neither of us think about age. I don't give money to any of the family etc, and support my wife in the normal marital way. She never asks for anything else. We are devoted to each other, and could not be happier. Before you ask, the sex life is normal.

How could you forget Happy valley Races. A very exciting evening, even if you don't have a bet. It's a real eye opener.

Google for info on which evenings there is racing.

Where can I buy a Turkey for Xmas this year ??
