    Good question, i think the Click 160 has ABS at front only, so right brake, maybe left is combo so something like 30% front 70% back.

     

    i have the 160 standard, i don't think left brake only is enough in a high speed stop. I always brake left first followed by right if required

    Not the end of the world then to switch right brake to left because of his disability.

    What about the middle class?

    An engineer, technician, policeman, secretary etc. etc

    A guy retired from post office ran in local elections and has a electric golf cart type vehicle he uses as a taxi around our park and village. 

     

    There was a teacher who retired and drank himself to death.

     

    A couple who had a large shop owed by them is now a 7-11 and they just sit around their Guesthouses and Hotel they own to, there billionaires.

     

    A retired police does taxis in his truck and electric golf cart.

     

    As said lots of the poor here do the odd job and rely on family.

    I’ve had front loaders, good ones like speed queen and prefer top loader anymore, again speed queen. Personally depending on the dwelling I would put the washer in a utility room, bathroom, balcony or outside. Just my personal preference.

    I agree with having a seperate room for washing, ironing and a drying area next an outside space to hang out in sun.

    Bit difficult in a condo. ????

     

    Had front loaders in UK, here in Thailand we have always had a top loader washing machine.

    Our new 12kg capacity Samsung it's brilliant.

    All pension payments for Thai wives finished in 2020 for any pensioner receiving them.

    From 2010, all pension payments for Thai wives were stopped for new claimants.....It has all gone, unless a Thai worked in her own right in the UK and paid N.I., then she can claim a % at HER and the UK women's retirement age.

     

    Nothing for a hubby's death....

    Where's Pharagonick when you need him. ????

    Has any oldie here ever used to Muay Thai for fitness or otherwise?

     

    No muay Thai I only watch on Sundays the fights with just the bandage hand fighting. 

    These days I have to know my limitations and use my multi gym in my kitchen to exercise.

    Is he a virologist? As various people have commented, you can get it again. There are four strains A-D.

    There's a 5th as well apparently I have said before many times on other threads as well I was told after initial laboratory tests while in emergency and my stay in hospital that I had the worse virus DEN-2.

     

    He told my wife that I could still get Dengue again but having seen many other people with DEN-2 and later getting dengue again it wasn't so severe, whether his right or not I really don't want to find out.

     

    The strange thing I find is since my stay in hospital and having a complete blood transfusion I don't seem to get bitten by ordinary mosquitoes or my body just doesn't react anymore to bites.

    I do feel ant bites though.

    We were recently at the land office asking if Im allowed to register a 30 yr lease on a small plot of land thats in the wifes name. The officer seemed a bit ambivalent about it actually. We do not live in a province that has a lot of farang. He asked why do I want to do this and I didnt know what the correct thing to say was. If you have any ideas please let me know what to say there. One thing he did say was that it would not be possible to register a Usufruct on the chanote thats in my wifes name. 

     

    He basically said bring all docs and it will be considered. It didnt fill me full of confidence actually. 

     

    If you have recently done this please share your experience. Actually Ive read many threads before over several years with farang registering both usufructs and leases. It seems that this particular office might not be privy with the laws/ rules. I dont think its right if this guy makes up his own rules based on his own moral code. 

     

    If you have experience with this is the main clause to be in the lease relates to the right to build a house? Is there anything else that should be included apart from the option to renew after 30 yrs. 

     

    thanks

    He obviously doesn't understand and because your married things could be sorted at any divorce.

    You can get a 30 year Usufrust from your wife many do it just in case wife dies and remaining family can kick you out without one.
