  1. I have one of these but not with me at the moment ..from what I can remember you have to squeeze the plastic gadget keeping the shaver heads in it unclips then take it out (use finger and thumb) .. then you can wash it out and replace the old shaver heads
  2. I remember the reason the Yaa Dong carts disappeared was that Thaksin stipulated that the herbal medicinal hooch had to be registered and sold as pharmacy type drugs Used to be a good start to the evening a few 5B shots of 'Sua Sib Et Tua' and others .
  3. Correct it happened to me and the immigration officer noticed I was referred to for overstay as I pleaded innocence and the overstay was 16 days and my flight soon departing I got away with just the overstay stamp and no fine .. I advise to visit your local imm office and get it sorted out asap
  4. Also 'Joes Bike Team' Mae Rim had a bike pick up service with a sidecar transport as a cheaper option You can google them also for their Facebook page and contact details but they havn't updated their page for a while
  5. G3 Garage Chiang Mai have a bike pick up and delivery service you can google them find their Facebook page with contact details
  6. First a rumble for a second then quite a jolt here in Chiang Mai city
  7. Why bkk? Seems others are saying chiang mai I was stopped at BKK on this visit by the head shaking Imm officer flicking through my passport pages, taken to the supervisor desk and shouted at and harangued for having 2 covid and TR visa extensions in the last 2 yrs .. told to get a long term visa not a TR visa and given contact details of a 'visa consultant' I was entering on the 45 day + 30 days extension they did not like that one bit .. had to fill in a form to give extra personal details address phone email hotel and warned if I try to to enter without a visa again I could be Deported!!!! So I would recommend entering at CNX next as I would be doing ... they obviously have something going on at BKK
  8. Several days ago I had to show my onward flight at Stansted to board a Emirates flight without a visa As for the immigration reception at BKK and 1 hour interrogation regarding past extended stays during the European winter months I will leave for another topic
  9. They used to wear a lot less than shorts & t shirts during the soapy show My mate who had met John at JP went into a Patong Go Go a few days later and was baffled as to why he was there .. "I'm his twin brother" uh ok .. I was told at the time the 'Hi Hi So' who was upset with the Loh Kroh scene was a 'Male' and wanted it all shut down So it's time to remove the John Place 20% discount card from my wallet then
  10. Sayuri ha ha .. twenty odd years ago when with polite company we referred to it as the 'Japanese Embassy'
  11. My Lisu lady friend only goes back home to Pangmapa when she really has to because of her motion sickness on the bus .. manages to fill a few plastic bags on the way
  12. On my first visit to SE Asia the 'shoestring guide' described Durian as .. eating your favourite ice cream when sitting on the toilet
  13. I've seen the Chinese tourists on scooters wandering to their 'right' side of the road around Pai until they realise they have to get back to the proper left side when a huge Hilux is about to wipe them out .. A few years back some Isreali C*&4t in a rented 4x4 smashed into locals near Chiang Dao killing them after forgetting to drive on the left
  14. I used to rent a scooter for a few days from the Honda Dealer 'Greenwing' on the main road, you could try them I also rented from a chap on Thetsaban 21 after the arcade on the left side but cannot see his place now on street view so I reckon Greenwing is your best bet
  15. The reason I also rent on the top floor is that Thais stomp around at all hours with no thought whatsoever for the victims in the room below
  16. Look at the lack of security, it's an easy target. Getting away with it is another thing altogether due to stupidity and grasses mainly. Yes get caught so quickly as the morons forget that all Thai urban streets are covered by CCTV
  17. Correct .. I used the BOC Chiang Mai branch ATM a couple of months back .. no charge for overseas Mastercard they don't accept Visa cards
  18. In Chiang Mai 60B at a barber shop most places have a price list written in Thai .. I let the barber know I can read the correct price and tell him that is what I will pay If the Falang can not read the price list it will be 100B+
  19. At those prices be out of business in 5 mins .. unless living in a village on the Chiang Rai Burmese border
  20. I'm in CM and I know of 2 premises nearby where some nutty local is feeding them, pigeons are now wandering about on the Sois and roads in my neighborhood and a few are getting splattered by drivers who will not slow down to avoid killing them .. unlike myself
  21. A dog chasing another shot out of an alleyway in CM and I hit it on my Honda Wave .. instantly down with a broken thumb only at 20km/hr Now got a KLX 250 hoping that the next one it will go straight over the mutt
  22. That would have raised my suspicion ,immediately regards Worgeordie Some Thai firms do hand out annual bonuses as gold to employees
