My wife registered for a management course by AEC at Rajabaht University.

Does any body know something more about this course?

Got a Kenwood at Central.

Just for fun.

Tried 10 times.

Bread eatable, but not good enough

No fun.

End of story.

When I came to Thailand,almost 30 years ago, bar-girls used to call me hansum man.

When I go now (much less often) they call me Papaa.

All my Thai family, (except my wife), and my staff, call me Papaa.

I just told Sam 22s story to my wife. She said that Paa also means "rich man".

Is it next to a seven-eleven?

Yes, I did.

As there are no direct flights from Phuket to Hat Yai, I decided to drive down there by car.

From Sarasin bridge to Hat Yai, about 6 hrs and 500 km. Good roads. No problem.

Next morning I arrived at the Chinese Consulate in Songkhla at 10:00 am.

I got the visum at 11:45.

Regular Fee: 1'100.--Baht. Urgent Fee:1'200.--Baht. Total: 2'300.-- Baht.

No cueuing .Friendly staff. Perfect. I would do it again.

Tell all family friends and any one you know visiting

"Never rent a Jet Ski in Phuket!"

Can you make that Thailand?

To the toilet?

I heard it is much quicker than Bangkok.

Has anybody done it?

Check out the link. I personally have given up on the Embassy in Bangkok and always apply via my home Country. UK.

Thank you Rick. Good link.

The last posts are over a year old.

Are there any new news?

Positive attitude. Very good!

I didn't come to Thailand to get angry all the time. (Can give you ulcers, I heard)

Sometimes I put up my fake smile and wave at them.

Then I pray for them to be born with more brain in their next life. (No, I don't do that. That was a lie.)

I answered a question of my wife with: "Sure as hell, baby."

Whereof she replied: " Me no hell-baby!."

Reading your story, it seems to be good enough to carry a Thai driving license.

I know what a thieve is.

And I have an idea what hedonism is.

But what a hedonistic thieve is eludes me.

I just downloaded <Vivino>. (free)

You can scan Winelabels, and they will give you all kinds of information.

I am captivated by this Russian narrators voice.

Great find FAB!

I don't know if the narrator is Russian.

But I know that the language is Czech.

This is, without any doubt, the most interesting and sad post I have read on Thaivisa, ever.

That's not cheating.

Every seller has the liberty to sell at the price he likes.

And every buyer has the liberty to buy at the place he likes.

Selling for different prices, because of a different shape of the nose, is called racism.

What is a motorbike lane?

I saw the film, when I was renewing my driving license.

But I cannot remember.

Alzheimer?

I am playing with the same idea for several years already.

Why pay a lot for some people to cut the grass, if a four legged lawn mower (or two) can do the work?

One of my grandfathers had sheep. They did a really good job, keeping the grass short. (Haven't seen any sheep in Thailand so far)

But I am worried about the welfare of the animals: Of course they would need some water. Would they need a stable? Are there vets for goats around? Would snakes be a problem?

Would be interesting to hear from people who have some experience with goats in Thailand.

Hearing some blabla from people who never had goats would be boring and time-wasting.

Vow, vow,vow.

No more motorbike rentals on Patong's beach road, after the tsunami.

No more Jet-skis in ten years. (Vowed 10 years ago)

etc.etc.

Bla bla bla. Wasting my time reading manure like that.

Pictures of my wife's house chapel.

I believe in freedom.

She can believe what she wants.

And I believe what I see.

And I do not wai monks .

With one exception: Luang Phor Khun.

Before getting any kind of a tattoo, it's always a good idea to get a check-up from the neck up.

There may be a screw loose somewhere.

I'm not a complete idiot.

There's a screw missing somewhere.

Did you get a receipt for the 300 Baht?
