  1. Two sides to this story. My wife was on that tour and we spoke about it last night. Two elderly women who were part of the tour got ill. Only 2. The only two who refused to stop eating the "endless" buffet of seafood. We are talking hours of eating. There were large tables set up and they were the only two that got sick. They were warned by others that for their age they were eating way to much seafood late into the night, they were also among the oldest.
  2. You would add hours to your flight time by going that way rather than across the Pacific. Leaving out the mask bit as that is nonsensical.
  3. Thanks Joe, that is what I thought. I will bring the yellow house book along with all the other requirements when I go on Monday.
  4. In late May I changed from a working B visa I had held for 30 years to a retirement visa. This meant changing my address as my employer had me as living in Prathum Thani when my home was in BKK. This was done with no problems as I simply brought the house yellow book with me. So I now hold a retirement visa valid till the end of May 2023. I tried to do my 90 day report online, it was successfully accepted, but then rejected two days later. Any thoughts on why it was rejected? I will now go on Aug 1 to Changwattana to clear it up, but a big surprise. The only thing I can think is rejected as first reporting on a new visa and address. Love to get some feedback and thanks.
  5. I was prescribed this by a urologist at Bangkok hospital. After two months there was better flow, but I had side effects of a horrible cold, or sinusitis, severe back pain and was heading towards impotence, I stopped then. Started on Saw Palmetto. It has done the trick, Back pain almost gone, cold symptoms much better as well and impotence is gone. The "famed' Urologist never even informed me of any possible side effects.
  6. My friend has this electric bike. Mostly just around his muban and runs to the store.
  7. Most of August and September it seems to be between 4200-4500 a night +17% directly with the hotel. Pretty close to what you want.
  8. The Gorilla glue shown from Shopee may well be Gorilla glue but it has not been trimmed or cured well. Very green and lots of leaves are visible. Should look more like this.
  9. I hope you grow weed better than you spell. ???? Okay boss lets see what you have grown here.
  10. I in no way said that. I said the clever girls are on Tinder. Why work when you dont have to? Its simply an observation.
  11. But IMHO he is spot on. This post seems like a time warp. Should have been written say 25 or 30 years ago. The clever girls are now out of the trade and on Tinder. Not meaning to be harsh. But there is a whole great world of women outside the bar scene. You also can't dictate the response to a post mate.
  12. Please dont make assumptions where I live. I am happy that you live in a secure enough place you dont lock your doors.
  13. You have not been here long have you. The great majority of stand alone housing has the windows barred. I dont like it but have come to accept it. You dont lock your doors at night?
  14. Been here so long you should know "jai yen yen". The question was about a swimming pool and you went on a 500 word + rant about dual pricing, telling stories I am glad I did not see in person. I do hope you feel better now.
  15. Which a lot of people are quite happy with, and more power to them. For me its the thrill the fun and hoping to go for the gusto. Why do anything just okay?
  16. To get a good product in the Thai weather it is not easy, They call it weed, but in reality if you are trying to cultivate high quality buds it is not easy at all. Fun and challenging would be more challenging but then you do have set backs, mostly due to insects, rain and simply excess humidity.
  17. So much drama on Asean Now. Just had an email from a friend who returned for the first time in 2.5 years. Good guy, and always in a good mood. Here is his recollection of going through immigration on Friday about mid day. "Coming into Thailand has gotten much easier from July 1st. No more landing cards. No paperwork at all for 30 days (visa waver.) No questions, either. Step up to the immigration officer with passport and boarding card. Get fingerprinted. Get a stamp in passport. Out of there." "Immigration didn’t even ask for my onward flight information. That has also gone out the window." I’m back!
  18. They are top government universities. You must test into them. When you dont make the grade you go to a private university like Bangkok or Rangsit.
  19. Its a one day deal here. You just go together to the amphur office and divorce. Its over. 'A good mate was separated for a year. One day they decided to end it, the next day it was over. Picture is "the end"
  20. That Thai weed does not cure well. Mine that looked like this at harvest, but cured like that. I did snip off all the leaves though. Just before harvest.
  21. I keep 2 types about. The high grade stuff, currently smoking Gorilla Glue and Wedding Cake I get for 300 a gram, and they are small popcorn buds and nicely manicured. Then I have nice Lao weed that is compressed but all buds. 35 baht a gram for that. Two different well valued sources I have used over the last 20 years. Still cant believe its legal now.
  22. Where please? I asked you in a previous post and you did not answer. Size and amenities as well. Where on the dark side?
  23. This is the issue. Yes she is. She works in management for Apple and must be in daily contact all the while downloading and exchanging information. She gets 3 weeks holiday but only because she works while here. In fact she often goes through that and has to buy more data. For myself the package you propose would be fine, but there are travelers who use one heck of a lot of data, and dont want to be running around looking for somewhere with wifi.
  24. She is a tourist now when she visits. She needs the data plan and it fits her well. Neither she or I are a cheap Charlie. Please let me know where you can get 100mbps for 250 baht. Thanks. The OP said a lot of data was needed over phone calls hence my post.
