  1. nah, not where Im from it doesnt. or at least not with teh alarming regularity that it happens here in the land of such beautiful smiles. but thanks for your input.
  2. If you get a Bangkok Airways resident discount card, one way flights to BKK are 2750, which is very reasonabale. So ignore the grumpy old sods who say its expensive transport. Samui is a fabulous place to live, for all ages.
  3. Most of the time they have no choice. If you want the job, you get in the back of the pickup.
  4. what a beautiful story, and what a fabulous young boy. I hope Karma gives back to him in multpiles. but how old is this video? they are all wearing masks.
  5. There is a place I always use, opposite the junction at Bandon Hospital and the Mookata. Nice lady, speaks good enough English to communicate wtih most.
  6. KPG, no. I would advise a jolly over to Samui and take it to Central Dept. Store to the watch department there. However be prepared for them probably wanting to send it off, rather than deal with it themselves (just an opinion).
  7. evo, did you find one of these? I am looking to replace mine also.
  8. This place opened a few nights ago. Aimed at the Thai audience.
  9. It should get a bit more quiet a few days after the Full Moon Party, which is on 07/03.
  10. I had 4 in December, on 3 separate oocassions, all F.O.C. I was pleasantly surprised also.
  11. Residence certs have been free in Samui for the last 3 or 4 months. Prior to that there was a 500 baht charge. The last time I got one was about 2 weeks ago, free of charge.
  12. Is this guy/girl a bit simple? Can we open up a whole new sub forum, just for all his/her daft questions?
  13. 191 police and excise officials. Really? Do they think that was quite enough? Why not go for a round 200?
  14. how do the monkeys who dream up these crazy schemes remain in positions of power? i love this country, but man is it retarded.
  15. Anything from 2500-3500/month, or 200-350/day for a nice Click 125cc. The costs of all vehicles, both brand new and 2nd hand has gone up massively in recent times. Go to Honda and try to find one brand new. You will be told to come back in 4-6 months. This is turn has affected teh 2nd hand market. Most people are asking almost new price for 2 to 4 year old bikes. You will not find a click worht driving for 12,000 baht, I can assure you. Ive seen various of your posts. You really need to stop comparing 2 years ago to now. The world is a different place, and so in Samui/Thailand. Inflation is real.
  16. Ive left mine parked at the Seatran terminal for 2 or 3 days many times when on visa runs in the past, and also right outside the old Seatran ticket office on the pier, and its always been fine. But for a week, who knows? I'd advice a chain and padlock, or a proper bike lock. Then if someone really want to take a bike, they will just take the next one, as its a lot easier.
  17. The best place to look is in Facebook marketplace. Also various local Samui Facebook groups. You will find an endless list of properties for rent there.
  18. Contact Dean at Phoenix Bar in Maenam, he has many things for sale.
  19. do we know which vaccines are being offered at this time?
