It’s nice when plans work out. We bought the Bangkok condo around 2004. Built the house in Chiang Rai in 2013. My wife moved from the US to Thailand in 2014. I continued to work until I retired in 2018.

Variety is good.

Most of the guys who hate T daily don't live in Bangkok. That is a clue. There isn't much to do in Thailand outside Bangkok.

Rubbish. Is this just a clickbait thread?

Seafood buffet

Seafood buffet

georgegeorgia · yesterday at 02:43 AM1 day

I would like to try a beautiful delicious seafood buffet I don't know where to go in Pattaya for this ,hence I'm seeking analysis on this project I'm not particularly concerned about price , but as I don't like crowds or people sitting near me , I don't like too many people where it's obnoxiously overcrowded where people are pushing shoving fighting for the food I find people seem attracted to me like honey to a pot , I could be in a restaurant say Sizzlers and there is hundreds of tables

Poll -- Ethiopian restaurant in Pattaya?

Poll -- Ethiopian restaurant in Pattaya?

Jingthing · yesterday at 08:51 AM1 day

There are a number of cuisines types that are probably more obviously missing in Pattaya now (notably Indonesian and Malaysian) but this topic is about Ethiopian. I'm curious about the interest and possible demand for a decently priced, reasonably good/authentic Ethiopian restaurant here. I know that many urban Americans are familiar with Ethiopian food, but I'm not sure about Europeans and other nationalities. It's my impression that it;'s a kind of food that once tried, the majority will li

https://metro.co.uk/2026/03/12/irans-new-ayatollah-is-a-coma-loses-leg-air-strike-27382972/amp/ Days after Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei took over from his father, it’s been reported that he is in a coma. Sources have claimed he’s lost one leg and suffered serious abdominal injuries in a US-Israeli air strike. It remains unclear when Mojtaba suffered the injuries, but the reports come just days after he was appointed to take over from his father, Ali Khamenei. Gathering for Ramadan in the same b

Iran is winning and will likely win the war against the USA

Jingthing · 18 hours ago18 hr

It certainly doesn't please me to realize this dark reality. This is a war that Trump (snookered by Israel) should have never started in the first place. However, this war more than anything else clearly signals to me that the American empire is declining rapidly. Maybe call it a suicide. This topic is being started to discuss and track the events related to Iran winning this war against the USA. I call it a war against the USA rather than a war against the USA and Israel because it would be

Is the US losing interest in the war with Iran?

spidermike007 · 37 minutes ago37 min

Trump appears to have thought that this was going to be a fairly simple process, and he believed Netanyahu when he was told that this would be a fun and easy adventure. Let's bomb Iran together old buddy. This has very obviously not turned out like Don assumed it would, and he's very likely looking for an off-ramp at this point. Financial havoc? Inflation? A declining stock market? More instability? This sums up the current nightmare Don is facing. Regime change was the plan, but Trump finds

bannork replied to 3NUMBAS's topic in What the Papers are Saying

Iran’s new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, allegedly released his first statement Thursday vowing to use the “lever” of closing the Strait of Hormuz to international energy shipping — after reports circulated that he was in a coma and had his leg amputated after being severely injured in the US-Israeli strikes that killed his father and other family members. The lengthy message was read out on Iranian state TV by an anchor as an image of Khameni was displayed on screen. No explanation was provided for why the 56-year-old did not appear or read out his purported words.

Dear Folks, You only live once, or so it is surmised by those who are no-longer among us.. And, I am thinking about going for the gusto in Shanxi, China. I have decided that ShanXi will be my new Plan B, if I need an escape destination. This is one place I have longed to visit, since I was 18. And so, I would like to know if anyone here has any experience living in Shanxi. I am an Old Friend of China, as I think I have mentioned in past comments. Therefore, I expect that a long-term visa mi

After Aggressive Pruning: Can/will this tree even survive?

GammaGlobulin · 7 hours ago7 hr

Dear Folks, As we all know, most trees in the city, or the suburbs, get pruned. Most seem to survive this cutting. However, some never recover. At this time, I am worried about my favorite tree which has been growing near my property for some time, and which has provided me with welcome shade from the sun, during the Hot Seasons. I have no idea concerning the botanical name for this species of tree. I just know that it once was beautiful. My hope is that it will re-grow into its former se

Why do electric-power outages very rarely happen during evening hours?

GammaGlobulin · 23 hours ago23 hr

Dear Folks, Have you ever wondered why grid-related power outages are extremely rare during evening hours, while PEA workers are asleep? Yet, they happen all the time while these PEA workers are awake and ON-THE-JOB? Ever wondered about THIS? Just an innocent question...and.... Can you, or anyone, provide a good and logical explanation? Please feel free to chime-in with your thoughts. Thank you. Best regards, Gamma NOTE: By evening hours, we mean about 7:00pm to 5:30am, in case we need
