  1. IMO Best is managed quite well.

     

    Tenderloin beef and tartar I'm buying there only.

     

    The Thai-Chinese family owners are said to own most of the land in Naklua. With the T21 it was the first land that thy sold.

    mine is charging 900 and now saying "not in stock" 

     

    For this amount you can buy a device like that.

    I wanted to have key fobs for some condos in different vehicles.
    My condo wanted 600 THB for a single card.

  3. Update from this week

    On Wednesday I went to the Royal That Embassy to apply for a Non-Imm-O Visa.

     

    At 8:35 about 20 people lined up in front of me already. The gate opened 9:00 sharp. Maybe 12 applicants were asked to come back later due to their high queue number. The electronic queue system is still not working.

     

    Around 9:15 it was my turn and I handed in all of the required documents.
    Not mentioned on their website and new for me was that the officer wanted to see a rental contract. Well prepared, I offered to show my chanot as the owner of a condominium, what he didn't want to see.

     

    Pickup Friday, yesterday 14:00, within 10 minutes.

     

    Another thing to mention is that they will not give any receipt that you handed in your passport. 'I don't know about Laos police...'
    I have been traveling by train inside Laos and experienced problems with the entrance security of the railway. Finally they let me pass with a copy of my passport with Laos visa only.

    Over on the Darkside, there's a shop that works on sofas & chairs.  I've only had a motorbike seat recovered by them but it wasn't over the top for pricing and their work held up for years. 

    It's on Khao Noi between the train tracks and Top supermarket (same side). And there's a 2nd sofa repair shop just about 20 meters up the hill from the one shown.

    I used them too. They picked up the sofa at my home and delivered it again after two days.

    Good job and good price.

    To Amorn I would bring a fan with broken capacitor. But not a tablet. PATTAYA2U is well know for computer and laptop repairs. Not sure how good they are for phones and tablets.

    That's exactly what I would do as well. I'm very satisfied with PATTAYA2U when they repaired my laptop.

  6. Recently I have been very happy with S.P. Service on Naklua Road.
    They picked up my about 12 yo, broken refrigerator and lented a spare refrigerator for the repair time. After 4 days me refrigerator came back repaired. Total price 2,150 THB.

     

    Kindly PM me for phone numbers or is it appropriate to post them?

    I bought this one recently off Lazada. As recommended to me by someone who is more savvy about these things than I am. Works great. I also bought an Amazon Firestick which is equally as good. Needed 2 as one for me and one for the daughter.

    My friend got the same brand, just 8/64 GB and Android 11.

     

    The App 'OTT-Navigator' installed on the box and BTW on the cell phone as well. Free accounts are available over Telegram. Just look there for IPTV and STBEMU and you will find some mostly Turkish groups that publish 'free' accounts.

     

    This together gives an experience of 6000-11000 smooth running world wide channels, including Pay-TV and video on demand. All free.

     

    A fast internet is mandatory if you want to watch the 4 or 8k streams.

  8. I once had a quiche made with puff pastry at Metz / Loraine. Delicious and obviously authentic.

    Since then I use it too for my home made quiches as the dough.

    Available at many stores here, Siambury's might be the cheapest.

     

    I'm adding cheese, sour cream, egg, some onions, a little garlic, some ham and cover it with bacon. Bake it until the bacon on top becomes crispy.

  9. The best courts are

     

    Northpoint - You need to know a co-owner there

    Centara Grand Mirage - Not cheap and fully booked in the afternoon

    Pattaya Interclub - Quite far away. You will need transportation

    Royal Cliff

    Dusit Thani and Siam Bayshore have each just one acceptable court left, but not comparable to the ones I mentioned before.

     

    My advise is to take a lesson with a recommended coach first who might rate your level and find a group for you.

    PM me for details. (I'm not a professional coach, just playing for fun)

    PS don't expect a certificate of vaccination, but it was on my Mor prom app before I left the temple

    I have been sent there out without a certificate and they promised that my vaccination would show up on on Morprom within 60 minutes. It did not even after 48 hours.

     

    So this morning I called Banglamung hospital and they advised me to return to the place.

     

    I did. Very polite service and they apologized for entering a wrong ID at the registration. Now I'm holding a stamped certificate and the vaccination is also shown in Morprom.

     

    BTW the certification counter is located outside on the left hand side from the exit.
