Gosh Chayapoum has indeed made it. Made it once to the original bar and thought it great. Once my month off the booze is over I will meet you for a beer or three. I wish you all the best with the bar and thank you opening it - just what the place needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glegolo Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 can anybody recomend a good dentist in the chaiyaphum area Yes I actually can. I have myself been there. It is a rather young fresh guy, his prices ae good and all his equipment is modern stuff. I got fine treatment. From your bar go down passing Tesco, you have that sharp curve. In the middle of the curve there is a sport clothes shop. and there is TOT. Pass these two shops and the next building almost the first entrance is this guys clinic. Good luck Glegolo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Tiger Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 can anybody recomend a good dentist in the chaiyaphum area Ben - when I need dental treatment I go to my local hospital in Kaset Sombun. If I was in Chaiyaphum town I would no doubt go to the hospital there. Co-incidentally, I needed treatment last week - a gold crown fell out. The dentist at the hospital who treated me cleaned the crown and my tooth before cementing it back in place. Cost was THB300. Service was good and professional - a nice clean modern looking surgery comparable with what you see in the UK. Dentist was a young woman. There were 4 or 5 young dentists in attendance. Can't beat the price back in the UK and service was comparable/better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been living here now for 6 years and have a full social life which makes me happy,. I find Chaiyaphum to be a small town (in my eyes) but they are trying as much as they can to go on and develop. We have Home pro, Global House, MAKRO, Big C and Tesco Lotus. We have places where we go i.e. saturday evening and look at widescreen-TV and premier legue, drinks and food, and we have hundreds of smaller places to go out and eat. We have a night market that is open every evening in the week, and we have quite nice nature to i.e. bicycle in. I think that people that have absoluteley no hobbies and interests of their own besides drinking and bar-hopping will not succeed in Chaiyaphum, But people that are willing to live a good family- life they will have a nice life with good friends.. Glegolo ps. Costas2008 - get it right for God sake..... 200 baht for falang and 400 baht if falang have a car.....Have you really been here????? Sorry had a bit of patchy Internet by roi et of late. How's Internet around chaiyaphum and also is it nit the cit/town that is big on organic farming or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How's Internet around chaiyaphum and also is it nit the cit/town that is big on organic farming or something? Good morning, surpriced that this old post came to life again. Internet here around where I live 3 km outside city of Chaiyaphum, is fully OK nowadays. I have had som rough rides during the years, since I came here 2008. I started with TOT who were the worst I have ever experienced in my life.. shitty internet who make it completely a nightmare to work over the internet with people..... interupted internet, stoppage, and slowed down to almost nothing. All changed during 2011, I went over to TTnT (later 3bb) and all went fine over night. Have our ups and downs of course,,, but with patience and a smile no problem to accept the internet-situation here, it is just fine. Have just 10 mB, costs me 632 baht a month... Have not upgraded but as far as I can see,, I can easily gets MUCH higher mB now today, for a small amount higher. I am sorry but I am not able to give you a good answer about the farming-stuff, I am a so called city boy from back home in Sweden,,, who makes my daily bicycle rides and that is as close as it gets, to farming for me....

somo Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 CAT have offices in Chayaphum and they have been busy around our way installing fibre optic cable. I live about an hour from the cit but now have fast and reliable internet which is wonderful. I can only assume that closer in it is available to everyone.
