  1. Same for me. Came to live here in 97, and heard a lovely song being played everywhere in Ubon, and bought the CD. She is from Ubon province, and I have been an admirer ever since.
  2. I also receive Book Bub daily, and endorse everything you say,
  3. I used Thai Visa Express last year for renewal. Excellent, no fuss or BS. If memory is intact, the handler was Paul.
  4. Well said, a much-missed contributor to BP. Sadly, the wonderful Atiya, who followed the same pattern, also left that paper a year or so ago.
  5. Yes, same for me, still paying, in our village 30 baht, despite not still residing there. The fund is a very good idea, helps the bereaved.
  6. Hardly old news, seeing as it was announced today, The NACC has been given 15 days to hand over all material to the editor of the newspaper which made the request.
  7. Well said. It is the same at the state hospital I attend. Hard-working, helpful to this old codger, and friendly.
  8. On the other paper, the Revenue Department has stated there are no plans to implement this, it was merely a constitutional requirement to assess old decrees.
  9. Condolences to his family. Joe was the main reason for looking at this forum; his advice, always given in a straightforward, non-judgemental manner, has been accepted as gospel by almost all on this forum. He will be sadly missed.
  10. In 25 years, I have attended 11 funerals of family members in Ubon, and one in Bangkok. Only once was I asked to help financially, by a close nephew who paid me back when his father's insurance was paid out. From memory, most occasions lasted 3-4 days, mainly to allow time for relatives and friends to travel from other parts of the country.
  11. I am also an avoider of whole-arm machines. I used to get readings of 200++ /over 120! Now my appointment card for the hospital always contains the doctor's note -BP Manual, and the regular staff immediately produce the manual machine when they see me. When attending for my covid injections, I always showed them copies of my appointments plus my hospital book showing manual recordings.
  12. I sent POL via registered Thai Post on 28th February; arrived safely 17th March. The delay was in Bangkok, awaiting forwarding to UK.
