Early this year I sent a machine part (dividing head) from the UK, I purchased it for 100 uk pound, delivery cost 120 uk pound customs & excise 7,600 baht. thank you customs for f_cking me over.

Nope, it fucks the blade.[/QUOTE]

Bought one in BKK this week and it does work, we only buy cheap knives so if it f-cks the edge no real loss

Well done Pragmatic you beat me to it.

In my case when they cast the uprights, they set steel bar (1/4") perpendicular to the upright at a given height (between the block joints), perhaps every three courses of block, the steel bar...

He should suffer in jail

How the feck can these people attribute every accident to brake failure. In any other country the vehicle would be inspected by professional people and if found to be true a recall of all similar...

Ensure you install more power outlets than you currently require, or if not run additional conduit at the outlet location at the first fix, so that you can add additional cables later for...

"Some even married Thais to get residency and make it easier to smuggle drugs such as ice, cocaine and ecstasy into the country for distribution here, he said".

UK also charge for plastic bags 5 pence each, strange walking out of M&S with your arms full of clothes un-bagged, must be a security nightmare.

Just made a call to the Embassy in Yangon, informed them that I was a British National working in Myanmar and that I want a new Non O multi entry based on marriage, the reply was no problem,...

I work in Myanmar, it would make sense for me to try here. I will phone them tomorrow to sound them out.
On their web site it states that they require the normal documents, e.g. valid passport, 2...

Has anyone tried to apply for a Non O in Yangon. On their website they advertise that they can issue such a visa, however I have emailed them but have not had a response.

Manoon Changchamni, a representative from Honda Motor Co and Yuasa Battery Co, said the contraband parts were mostly imported from foreign countries. Mr Manoon also warned of the dangers of using...

Agree with the above, I fecking hate the way they drive here, absolutely no respect for any other road user.

The country lends its self to outdoor swimming pools in every sizable school, so that all children could learn the dangers of water and taught how to swim, but I guess the Thais are that fecked up,...

They must think the rest of the world are fecking stupid, to think we believe there reasons for all of these incidents.
Any normal country would have the vehicle taken to an independent inspectorate...

Always had good service from Evaair. Emirates can be cheaper but then you have to change flights in Dubai.

They do not have the gumption to think that there may be a train coming. I have little sympathy for them. Just the same as running red lights.

Great pics, I like China town.

Crazy how you recognise a building but can not place its location, pass it almost every day, must give it a try.

Try Thepprasit Road, on the left hand side about 400m before you reach the Jomtien junction.
I know they sell the SS steps, not sure about robot cleaner. Very helpful staff and reasonably priced....

Headworx sorry its late as Krugen says, left at the lights past the Courtyard and Deli, 50 meters or so then its on your right hand side.

Hi manpet, I have tried Route CC, it was fine but I did not find it as good as Players Lounge. Perhaps its time to re-visit the place.

Had a Sunday lunch at the Players Lounge this week (darkside), probably one of the best I have had in Thailand, food was served hot and tasty. Small Lamb Beef or Pork 199 Large 245.

Very nice and tastefully decorated

Great photos, I used to love cycling, out on the road by 7am back in the house by 9 and ready for a swim. This was my routine until I almost got pushed off my motorcycle into a culvert by some prick...

Bought a Toshiba with W8 in October last year, I have been so close to smashing the thing so many times. Why could MS move so far away from the norm in one single move.

Used HTTP Tunnel for a long time, free for low usage, small fee for faster server

See the Fisherman's doing a few takeaways, the food was not so good the last time I was there about 2 weeks ago.

Have to agree Necron

Tragedy for the deceased & their families. Will they ever learn?

Nice post, spent many hours walking around there. Lots of car parts sellers close by, if you are looking for specialist bits.

I want to buy a Samsung Series 9 or Dell XPS 13, I have looked on the Samsung web page for a list of suppliers but to no avail. The Dell site has a list of suppliers but almost all have out of date...

Good to see the craze is spreading among the lockals, many more would do well to follow the craze

Not possible, all bus drivers are professional, and would never drive without due care and attention.

A report was made and a search is now on for this potentially dangerous man.

So what would a dangerous man have to do?

It only gets difficult when her Thai name is in the UK Passport and Married name in the Thia Passport. Feck the cost and trouble trying to get a name change in her UK passport at short notice was a...

Its amazing how they can all stand & pose for a photo with the guy dead on the floor in front of them.

As I experience the driving skills here in Th it appears to me that the drivers can only see as far as their front bumper! Their ability to "plan ahead" is absolute NIL. When turning either left or...

The sooner they limit the speed on these death traps, and make the drivers accountable the better

Have passed through six times a year for the past 10 years and never got stopped or had my bags scanned, the last time I had two large celing lights in original boxes, marked with air line stickers...

Nice story

He is lucky to get it back, lost count of how much was stolen from us, on reporting it to the b in b they said to go around the glod shops to ask if they had bought our gold off some thieving knut....

Great thread, most enjoyable.
I get itchy feet when I see new builds, we have some nice land up North, I would love to build a simple retirement home and get out of this hell hole called Pattaya.

Oh very seldom is there an accident without a minivan being involved. Why do people travel in these death traps, with morons driving them.

It is not so much the speed at which they drive at all be it to fast in my opinion, its the reckless way they in which they cross four lanes of traffic, undertaking, overtaking, travelling so close...

Nice report rowlins, i also like Hua Hin, six years ago when we moved back to Thailand, I wanted to do the same as you, we had stayed in Hua Hin several times on holiday during the previous 10 years....

Add Rio & Sao Paulo to the list if shit airports, and they hope to host the world cup hu.
