Just did my first on line report and all went well except the CAPTIVA thing, there was nothing there and wouldn't reset ..Played with a lot of things, disconnected VPN and finally at the bottom of screen clicked start a new application, hit that and in that screen the CAPTIVA populated, went back to returning applicant and bingo CAPTIVA worked. I'm not real tech savvy and was surprised yesterday the email came with the new 90 day extension... Dumb luck...? Sorry for those with issues but my first try we muddled through... Sure beats driving to Jomtien...

OK read all this and tried, issues with copying the strange letters and symbols but after finally getting that right it appears to have worked, got a email saying my application was accepted? Now just wait? Really except for my old guy mistakes it seemed pretty user friendly...

wife had an electric wok in USA and it did the job and got beat to hell an back. She even took it camping as the camp sites had AC plug. Had to smile about comments on chilies and stinky unknowns waifing through the house.. Comes with the territory...

Jail him and then black list... what an a$$hole....

bought a 2019 Trailblazer and have had it 5 yrs now, not a bit of trouble. Parts are easy to come by. Think these were all built in country and quality seems to be as good as any. Agree look at the brake pedal for excessive wear on rubber pad. If the pad has the ridges worn off the mileage was turned back. Ours is 2.5 liter duramax diesel and gets really good mileage. 13 yrs old probably could use shocks and look if you can see front rotors of brakes, are they scoured or grooved? Things you can point out and may get a discount on price. 250K baht for a car that old it better be in mint condition. But know others who own Chevy's and have never had and issue with many miles/klicks driven....

we drove up there 4 weeks ago, some very cool Khmer temple ruins that are very well kept up. Nice hotel that accepted small dog and great restaurants. Yep was already hot but quite enjoyed the trip...

That dude needs to back to his home country and crawl back under the rock he came from...

Karma baby.....very fitting...

green and lush turning into brown and crispy...not a good sign

wifes Thai, we're old, lived in USA 44 yrs and she likes 20C. I can handle the heat but she doesn't very well. Bedroom at night same as parlor during the day 20C and fans and big comforter. Did partition off kitchen dining from parlor/family room so AC doesn't work too hard and 6 inches fiberglass in ceiling whole house. She is happy and has small blankets everywhere and I wear shorts. Retiring here was not and option for me....

There was a group/forum "Cool Thai House" that had a whole lot of posts on about everything on construction and building.. Found a lot of really good info there about anything to do with building, electrical, plumbing etc...

Our cheap one died after 2 yrs, bought a Toshiba in Home Pro, its stainless double walled insulated think 1.5 liter, around 1000 Bt, wife is happy with it..cheap usually ain't good and good usually ain't cheap..

we're in Sattahip and found the Makro Australian strip loin was really pretty good. The whole loin was about 1900 Bt but made about 10 thick steaks and my Thai wife who lived in US for 44 yrs said this was best beef she has had here. She is a very picky buying... I've bought flank steak from Villa (was real good) but the Tomahawk and such way above our pay grade...never tried... But also agree with others ask the chef....If he's a good dude he can probably get better cheaper than you trying..

I was concerned as well but went to my local Sattahip bank branch and sometimes speaking only English I have issues. Ladies knew exactly what I was after and yes 100 bt...

We own house so its on its.. Was in Boonthavorn and getting a 150 bt one and sales guy who spoke English showed me one for 1000 Bt.. chrome plated, guts all solid brass and can open and clean. Bought one, year later have replaced 3. These don't have trouble but when they leak, shut off valve and unscrew nozzle, flush it and put back.. Yea its a stupid bum gun but got tired of changing it... good ain't cheap and cheap usually ain't good....
