Help! Flickering for 2 years, running out of ideas!
Taxi replied to Sambora's topic in The Electrical Forum
I had something similar, total rebuild and the kitchen lights had a flicker. My builder and the electrician decided to put the led strip light onto it's own switch (basically on/off) which is not dim-able unlike the ceiling lights. I also changed from a white light to a warm light at the same time. No more flicker. -
Debit card online fraud!
Taxi replied to JoseThailand's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Not sure which bank your with, but on the SCB app you can block online transactions and just unblock them when you want to make an online purchase. -
Hi, I know you didn't ask but I just tried the linked cream yesterday for the first time and already I'm seeing positive changes, I've had skin issues for years, I'm impressed, you may be interested in trying it.

Thai Airways resolves seating dispute following passenger complaint
Taxi replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I have no idea what that photo is of, but the article is about an Airbus A220 flight, which is a single aisle aircraft. -
Didn't notice, so plus 1 for Pimmy.

The Chinese Takeaway - By Pimmy is good, you have to order on Facebook and they deliver. Has 5 stars on facebook. They market the food as UK style Chinese takeaway, lots of pictures on FB. You need to plan ahead as it won't be at your door in 30 minutes. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063615640112

Best tires for Scooter. Michelin, Pirelli, IRC?
Taxi replied to Airwolf's topic in Motorcycles in Thailand
As the saying use to go "if it only saves you once a year it a Goodyear." I agree the Dunlops are crap, I don't recall exactly why but I also got rid of IRC's. I've had the Pirelli Diablo's and really liked them, I currently have the Michelin City Grip 2's and also really like them. If I had to choose one, I think the Michelin's. The contoured surface makes leaning into turns feel more natural and the grip is outstanding wet or dry. -
I used Asian Tigers in a move from Singapore to Pattaya, they were very good. I had office furniture, lounge suite, large TV etc..... I don't know about cost as my employer paid, but I do recall tax on the Thai end was minimal. They were a professional team, that was in 2014.

If you just want to push a button and have the machine do the rest, then I can recommend this Philips machine. I'm no coffee purist but people often compliment the coffee this machine makes. Philips LatteGO Full Automatic Espresso Machine Philips LatteGO Full Automatic Espresso Machine EP5447/90

I don't know specifically about Brie but Dom's Pizza on Pratumnak Soi 5 has a deli section. I was getting some Blue cheese they sold from Chang Mai (I think) made from organic goats milk. They were ordering fresh weekly but they had a decent range of quality cheese. Worth a look if your passing.

At SCB I can send baht 50,000 at a time on my windows pc, using the android phone app I can send 1 or 2 million depending on what limit I set in the app. Ive recently sent 1 million twice with no issue to another Thai bank account.

I use to have a Philips like the one pictured on the first page, it's probably at the small end in terms of size. A few months ago I got a bigger Philips Air fryer model HD9270/91 (6.2l). It's on Lazada from about 3,400 baht. In my opinion it's much much better than my old smaller one which was maybe 5 years old. It just cooks stuff better, probably due the better airflow with the bigger basket. It's got a bunch of presets but basically just use the temp and timer. I subscribe to a consumer magazine in Australia that test all sorts of everyday home appliances and this was rated very highly, not the best one but maybe 3rd best and for me was the best value for money.

This fire was a bit more impressive than the photo provided. The transformer blew up twice about 30 minutes apart (around 9-10pm), both sounded like a bomb with massive white flash. The road was closed until about 4am and the PEA guys had a load of trucks and equipment, flood lights etc turning night into day. The road was not passable so a road was formed through the vacant plot as it's the only access in and out of Cosy beach area.

Maybe you could come with international drivers license and just convert to a 2 year" I'm not sure but you could message an agent. I've done the license myself 2 times, last week used an agent for the first time. The process was no booking visit needed, agent arranged certificate of residence, Dr's certificate, transport, paperwork etc. All I had to do was provide 2 photo's (2 licenses) sign some documents and do a colour test at the DLT. (no reflex / depth perception test) Departed central Pattaya 9am back just after 1pm. You could drive yourself and leave when you've got your license that would be quicker. For 2 licenses all fee's charges certificates + Dr's 6,500 baht. There was a fee in that amount of 1,000 for a process requiring no booking visit. I could have done it for 5,500 but I would have had to make a booking visit.

The IMF is headed by Bulgarian economist Kristalina Georgieva, the criminal Lagarde is now running the ECB, since about 2019. Agree with your view, in fact I think your being a bit kind. The rosie forecasts are all a confidence game, if the world is going to <deleted> they won't tell you until they've bailed everyone out using our money.

Man arrested after he allegedly shot 3 students to death in Krabi
Taxi replied to snoop1130's topic in Krabi News
He used a shotgun, so it's possible he hit two of the kids with one round. Very sad. -
With gold falling is buying Thai real estate a better bet

Here's a link to the 3 year Thai Baht gold price. It's up about 50% over that time. This article is pure Real Estate propaganda. Gold Price in Thai Baht (ycharts.com) -

Iv'e got a Berkey water filter, stainless steel 8.5l tank. They are very highly rated if you browse the web. Filter lasts 10 years they come in different sizes, mine cost 14,500 baht and would recommend the stainless steel tap accessory. Worth a look I couldn't be happier with it and extremely convenient. Big Berkey - 8,5 Liters – Berkey Waterfilters Asia (berkey-waterfilters.asia) A youtube review, there's lots of them.

I've been getting mail from Sydney and Perth in 2-3 weeks. I have also twice requested Westpac to resend a renewed credit card in the last 12 months and both are MIA.

Taxi replied to The Hammer2021's topic in Pattaya
I'd 2nd Cafe des Amis, the food there is always excellent. I've been told the Christmas lunch's are great but usually sold out well before Christmas. This year you could be in luck. -
