  1. Now that Thaksin is back Casinos are certainly not far off. Nearly happened in 2006 when Thaksin and sister were talking with guys from Macau in Chiang Mai. Somewhat disrupted by one of those coup thingies!
  2. Possible. Maybe at the same time as we get full pension!
  3. Bring your money in and get taxed on it is not much of an incentive? Does a company importing funds also have the same tax liabilities as individuals?
  4. Won't the millions of tourists sucking in the air simply filter it through their respiratory systems and actually help reduce the dust/ smog particles? A government ploy to use tourists to reduce the hazard?
  5. Got some Cheshire and Wensleydale, awesome, from Greens recently but now looks like almost everything is out of stock unless it has improved?
  6. Tuesdays storm cleared it away for a short time and if no more rain for a while then it will be bad again in a few days.
  7. A brief respite with a downpour in some areas of Chiang Mai on Tuesday night but the smog will soon settle back in without further rain. Governments response- can't really do anything or tourists may not come! Pathetic!
  8. As the new law applies to everyone , Thais also, bringing funds in to Thailand you would think that the banks would be the first line of attack. Immigration would only net the small fish and most definitely not Thais? Me, have had my pension paid in to a Thai bank that changes from next month, have a bit of cash in hand here so will not need the pension at the moment.
  9. Could be related to the incoming tax laws on foreign income. Wife was asked to complete a form at Bangkok bank related to all her income. Didn't take long as she has none. Staff said also related to new tax laws. Since then have not heard of anyone else having to do this. Maybe this is the start, no extension without declaring income and source. TIT
  10. Massive fines for the arsonists, jail time as required. Fire monitors of some sort. Rewards for information on arsonists. Anything to add?
  11. Probably but I haven't tried. Does what I require and replaced an HP tower so more space on the desktop. And of course very portable.
  12. Buy most of ours at Gekko Garden, plenty of choice and fair prices. Sausage and bacons and other meats quite good also.
  13. One of the better buys I have made for years. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/hp-prodesk-400-g3-mini-gen-6th-7th-intel-core-i7-i5-i3-i4759184815-s21409375803.html?
  14. Quite a few places over 200 today. Chiang Mai fighting to get to that number one spot again! A little more uncontrolled and un- monitored burning and we can do it again!
  15. Many places to park on the main road just opposite , up and down.
  16. Vaguely remember something about Welsh goat herders and wellies. Nah, must be getting old!
  17. "He expressed his intention to wait until he felt better before engaging with the police." After all it was only attempted murder said the victim.
  18. "The Phuket Express has decided not to share this footage however as it depicts animal sexual abuse and may upset many readers." But no doubt it is out there somewhere if you really need to see it.
  19. Pro Auto have an insurance brokers just at the back of the garage next to their car test centre run by Tons wife.
