  1. Hi I am in Surat Thani city now and am looking for a beach resort not far.

     

    I have some physical problems and need a gentle bit of beach- not too wavey. not too steep... (I can swim ok)

     

    I am looking at Khanom - any basic hotels recommended? (on the cheaper end..  555)

     

    Or any other areas within reach? I am happy with just Thai tourist places (probably prefer them!)

     

    Any gems for 2 weeks?..

     

  2. I sent him the link to my post, and this was his reply (using his translator):

     

    "13:24 ????????????????????.???? ༊*·˚ I think the price will be expensive depending on the service. Some cheap stores (not all) sell it without even knowing the source. He hadn't even seen how to clean the flowers. But for me, I think the price I sell is very cheap with my service.
    13:24 ????????????????????.???? ༊*·˚ Because I know the source of it, I clean the flower with my hands. I do it with care and intention. Because I know that there is something bad in the flower if it is not cleaned properly. Buyers may suck bad things into their lungs. That's what I fear and I try not to let that happen to my clients."

     

     

     

  3. A shout out to a cool young guy in On Nut

     

    Found him here on Google maps - Weedme.

    Good communication (with his translator!), delivered  quick, did c.o.d. for me, good prices,  nice smoke. I also really liked his Green Crack (unpressed Thai) - got 50gms for 700bt.. smooth and clean.

     

    He does not have a storefront, and I am not sure how far he delivers...

     

    This is a nice quote from our chats:

     

    "Welcome to hurry to fight Thailand, the land of marijuana free"

    i don't know if you got the same thing. is it covered in red hairs?

     

    if you pull some leaves, they are pretty thin, which means sativa or hybrid.

     

    i had a couple oz of cheese last year in the states and cheese smells funky. i can't remember which one i had, but the room stank whenever i opened the jar lol

     

    i broke up 100g of the red thread and put it in a jar a few days ago. i just opened it and it still has that strong lemon pledge smell. the buds expanded a bit and i tried to get a closeup of a couple of full ones.

     

    still looks and smells like Fire OG to me?

     

    after a few days of "testing", i'm not amazed, but its good for rolling sticks and watching the bamboo grow. the price was great, around $70usd for 300g delivered.

    Hi, not sure!   And don't get me wrong - this does not look, smell or taste like Cheese. But the stone reminds me of Cheese - nice body stone and makes me yawn :)  Not super strong. Paid 350bt ($10usd) for 28 grams

  5. A young Thai woman (not my GF) I know wants to work overseas (make money, clear the family debt etc).

     

    She has minimal skills - housekeeping, gardening etc. And only speaks Thai. She is curious about Korea, Taiwan, Hungary, and Austria.

     

    She is not a 'working' girl and does not want to prostitute herself.

     

    Any suggestions?

     

    ps - is this the right forum to ask?  thanks

  6. 4 years ago I bought a Magic Launch Box clone (copy, counterfeit, replica... ) that was actually made in Thailand. It was only $40 on ebay, but sorry I can't find the link.

     

    Super simple- no electronics. Just a wire mesh that heats up from a AA rechargable  battery.

     

    ps - The nice thing about vaping herb is that you get a nice clean buzz even from <deleted> weed. You may have to vape more, but you are still getting just the boiling cannabinoids... none of all the <deleted> you get from burning...

     

    I just arrived here and it is working great on the decent 100bt/grm stuff I found

  7. Thanks for this. Gonna try Canvas Blocker first.

     

    For my general security, I run a few Linux virtual machines for various tasks (I have 32GB RAM) . One for just FaceBook, one for general surfing, an encrypted one for my banking and email, and one with a VPN for torrents, and whatever...

     

    I also use Noscript, Ublock origin, Decentralize, Ghostery...

     

    So with a canvas spoofer, my machines should appear completely different to each other.

     

    AND my computer is back in the West at my mate's house. I access it through a Remote Desktop... so my info is never in Thailand on my local laptop.

     

    Plus I do not use my phone for internet - just skype, and youtube. But I do use my phone to remote to my main computer. Never any info on my phone...

     

    Lately I have been concerned about fingerprinting, so I am ging to install Canvas Blocker on all my virtual machines, and on my local laptop too.

     

    cheers

     

     

  8. My Bangkok Bank savings account had 3000 baht in it in 2017. I still have the book.

     

    In 2017, I had to leave Thailand quickly due to a having a medical emergency. I never had a chance to talk to the bank.

     

    I used to have a driver's license, work permit and O-visa... but those have all expired.

     

    So, will I be able to use my account as a tourist?

     

    Did I lose my 3000bt?     555

     

    thanks all,  WJ

     

    ps - Is Bangkok Bank good enough to exchange $3000 Canadian? if I still have my account, then I can deposit it all at once. 

  9. Thanks. Yes, found a nice looking place just north of the klong in that area. Been a while since I travelled, and want the security of knowing the area I am in...

     

    Very nice sounding place. A little guest house with a pleasant woman as owner.  Lots of good current reviews. It sounds great. Less than 500bt.

     

    I hope it is good!

  10. Been 5 years since I was in Bkk. Spent a lot of time in Thailand before that. Coming back soon.

     

    In Bkk I always stayed at a big old 350bt  hotel across Ratchemadorn from KS rd.  Close to Democracy monument. Behind the Benz shop. Quiet area, Mostly Thai guests... Great central location.-  quiet and far enough away from the tourist <deleted> of KS...


    But it has been demolished, and I am looking for a replacement near there.  Or in another area recommended?

     

    I am comfortable near Democracy/KS. I know my way around. From north of KS down to south of Charoen Krung I know pretty well.  I don't know any other areas to stay in Bkk.

     

    I don't need bars, shopping, or a lot fancy coffee shops. I don't want a boutique hotel.  I eat Thai food all the time.

     

    I would be perfectly happy in a basic residence with food stalls nearby...

     

    So please, a good basic hotel near Democracy (not in the backpacker zone). Or some other area of Bkk to try.

     

    Are there still decent 500bt places? Or am I just dreaming? I would consider something really special (with pool) for 1000bt? I see booking online gives some pretty cheap prices...

     

    Thank you
