So, I'm coming down from hiding in the western part of the Province come tomorrow, Thursday 28 February, and was wondering if anyone wanted to get together for some food (Western!) and a couple of beers. Just respond in this thread....I can PM a phone number for a hook up if anyone's serious.

Hi Dave

I live 65 km southwest of Khampaeng Phet in Klong Lan and I generally get to NS once a month for a big C shop.

Where do you live

I would be happy to meet you or any other farangs in Nakhon Sawan.All 5 of them if possible.

Mae Wong is close enough that you can also probably hang out with the fellows from Kamhaeng Phet--there's a few that will come down out of hiding if there's brewskis on the table!

Thanks for reply.I am always down for beer.I am retired and not very good with computers but I am trying to learn.I just looked at some photos of some wat at Kamphaeng Phet looked very impressive.

First, I'd definitely steer clear of riding with Billd766; he has a predelicition for going airbourne in vehicles. :o

Without knowing how big you're planning, mine is on the smaller side, I could recommend the guys who did mine. They did a good job, a typical Thai concrete beam/block house, but were willing to work with me on specifics.

Thanks a lot for the advert Dave.

Yes Ford Rangers can really fly folks.

Mind you it is a a bit tricky driving when the track is only just 2 cars wide and some maniac on a motorcycle is tracking you on the nearly blind spot on the left.

You must be naerly coming back again by now.

Cheers

Bill

Hi colonelsing

I live in Amphur Mae Wong. I'm on the other side of the mountains behind the Amphur offices, in Tambon Mae Lay; 35km from the Amphur via Khao Chon Kan. You are welcome to visit me, or perhaps we could met up at Khao Chon Kan some time.

Cheers

@ Billd766;

I just call it like I see it. I thought I was well into your mirror space! Plus it wasn't that far that I was there; it wouldn't have been that much time if you had gone faster although that would have been even more enjoyable for me since you would have had a bit more Kinevel time.

And I actually had to push my trip back things here are hectic and show no sign of letting up. However, this overtime is padding my cheques quite nicely. I'm actually looking at the week of the 20th July getting back.

I don't know if this is the right way to do this as I never did forum before and don't know how to do the various icons or whatever they are called and I am an idiot with computers,but I do want to say thank you to all the guys who wrote to me with helpful advice.

First I would say to Khonwan,I will be living very close to you in Mae Wong so definitely would like to meet up with you.

Also I would like to say thank you to Dave and I myself am planning to build small house such as yours so would definitely like to learn more.

Also Bill,I would like to meet you also. Only thing I would say though is yesterday i had to go to hospital for some heart thing.Have accelerated heart or something but doctor says I can still do most everything,but I am not sure if riding in airborne cars is advisable. Just so you know though,I have done same before so no problem.

If any of you guys are ever in Chiang Mai before I go to Nakhon Sawan,let me know and we can arrange meetup.Thanks

Not a problem for me to meet at Khonwans place or mine just follow the thread or drop one of us a PM and we can sort out something.

Dave Boo will be back in a couple of months anyway which should give your heart time to get fixed.

I had a couple of partly blocked arteries several years ago. Had 2 angioplasties and a couple of stents fitted and now I am as fit as any fat 64 year old who does no exercise.

Bill thank you for message.I am glad you are well now. I am okay too not really big problem.I have to have a heart catheter but not right away..The bummer is now I have blood pressure medicine which my daughter who is a nurse says I can never drink beer nanymore which is tragic,although doctor never said anything about this but he didnt really say much about anything.

I have to go back to US in August for a visit but I am hoping to get to Nakhon Sawan in September.I will keep in touch and hope to see you guys then.

Bill,thanks for advice.I take some pills called prenolol.My daughter is an RN so she tells me don't drink beer again ever.But she used to be an alcohol counselor so she tells everyone that.Also says quit cofee.

Then she says never take viagra ofr anything like that but really I don't want to even discuss this stuff with my daughter,although I did always hear that stuff was bad for your heart.

Not to worry though Bill. I promise not to tell your wife about viagra if you promise not to tell my daughter about beer.

Part of my age problem is selectivity.I am selectively blind and deaf when the time calls for it.

Hi colonelsing

Don't pay any attention to Bill's heart problems: he has a good heart...at least he's good-hearted!

Khonwan i can tell Bill is good hearted as are you and Dave.I have to say though I have written to the Chiang Mai forum today and some of the replies people sent seemed very strange and I would say obnoxious.This was not always the case as there were also kind and helpful people,but one guy was talking about "psycoliogical" problems of tourist police.Anyway everone in Nakhonn sawan seems nice and good hearted so i am looking forwarde to getting down that way for good.

Sorry, things have been crazy busy here and I haven't had a chance to craft a reply. It's not good to hear of health problems--unless of course you have me in your will! :o

Things are a lot more laid back in Nakhon Sawan; most every expat that I've met there live in the area for exactly that reason.

And colonelsing, if you PM me a phone number I can have my old lady (I can safely say that since she's got two months on me!) will SMS some pics of the house to give you an idea of what I mean as far as small is. You'll also get a feel of what the builder is capable of. If you're not that hip on computers, to PM me, click on my name to the left of this message and choose "Send Message". I'll get the message and have my wife get that info to you.

Not necessarily so.

Where I was born in England there was a saying.

Dorset born and Dorset bred,

Strong in the arm and weak in the head.

Probably true in my case :o:D :D
