We have a thread Show Us Your Grow. Have a look. 

I have no idea why you want to open a new account when you already have 2. I use TTB for my retirement visa, did it with an agent and nary a problem one. Perhaps you could explain in some detail what is up. Its not just opening a bank account that is for sure.

Reads like he simply wants to avoid the high numbers of tourist.   One of the main reasons we rarely traveled during high season (except during covid),    Along with higher cost and more pollution.

 

I read it as he wants to be here when there are the most tourists.

Looking to do my traveling when tourism's at its peak. I think December and February are the highs (ignoring Songkran week) but someone let me know if that's incorrect.

Seems he thinks the amount of working girls is tied to how many tourists are around, and he wants the biggest selection possible. January is just as busy as December and February.

i am not a fool to stay in thailand now that is hot....

You dont live here, and really know little to nothing about Thailand base on your posts. Again it was quite the rant. Perhaps India next year with your love of basmati.

Are you claiming to see window air conditioners here in Thailand?  Almost none for last 30 years so expect older units.  

Bingo, the last one I saw was just at 40 years ago in my first apartment in BKK. Where have you seen them?

Luckily my car does not have blue tooth but does have a USB port for charging. No interference at all.

I have to assume the supplier you are complaining about was on Facebook or line. I find it hard to believe that you think these guys are the same as reputable operations. It costs little to nothing to set up a fake storefront on either. Extract as much money from the customer as you can, as quickly as you can

Why do you have to assume that? I clearly put up a screen shot of their website.

am happy with Bangyabong - hes a good chap

That he is, a throwback to the old days. I will stick with him and his products. Great value, and that is where the problem lies.

that's the worst thing, and any adult brain would understand that.

Do I detect some anger? Jai yen yen, its hot and there was a misunderstanding. Up2u as where to go from here.

Any other recommendations?

Order off the website. He is Thai and was very surprised how fast all his weed sold when the "Farungs" found out about it. On his message service there he told me they were out of the good stuff and he would let me know when it was in again. Its a pity you had a problem, but I would not make a big deal out of the 300 baht loss. In the future I believe this will be a good source.  

I must also say this is my before bed weed as I prefer the good buzz of top quality bud. That I pay 200 per gram for the popcorn buds and am happy with that. 

I have bought from the same source a few times. They are often sold out as you are well aware. When you go to order you can see this clearly. I am waiting to here back when they will have what I like again.

For starters, they're totally lacking in any selection of decent salsas, whereas Villa carries a wide range of locally produced good brands like El Sapo and El Charro.

 

Make your own as I did. Tomatoes very ripe, red bell pepper, chili peppers to your liking, onion, coriander, lemon juice and salt. 15 minutes job and keeps for say 10 days in the fridge. You learn to make do with what you have. 

Had one on Samui a really long time ago. Now just cooking for friends. Too old and too damn hot. Thanks so much.

Foodland is horrible when it comes to any decent Mexican food grocery products.

 

 

Forget Mexican food in Thailand. I learned that the hard way.

I have not found that to be the case at all. Avocados are always available, Along with Pok Chee or corriander leaves, onions both red a white also. They have Mission wraps which are the best flour tortillas you will find here. They carry dried pinto beans, along with cumin and Mexican chili powder.  Tomatoes both tinned and fresh are always there and they carry more than one kind of tortilla chips. What more do you want. You have guacamole, salsa cruda, and tacos, burritos or enchiladas to your hearts content.  Few days ago whipped up this carnitas pork, perfect with some cheese topped refried beans along with fresh salsa.
