    Remember you have to provide them with a hand drawn map so they can find your place. So they won't have to phone to find you!

    The numbering system has always astounded me as I think what is the point of numbering houses in the order that the Pu Yai Ban enters them into his record book.
    The postman sometimes doesn't know where the houses are if they are addressed to a number.
    This place and its house numbering system is a good model for the chaos theory.

    let us know how it all goes, good luck.

    As ootai stated Prag. A quick map with stick people works. Now you say just go the house with Blue Plaque on the gate.

    Being this your 1st one so you get the validation visit. We had 2 guys come. They hung out, shot the shit with my wife and smiled and waved while I was working on my truck. They walked around. Never went in the house and wrote some shit in the file and left. Took about 30 minutes

    If I recall correctly the number is issued as per the next entry in the Teassabahn log book when getting permission to build. So the next number can be half a K from the last house build. In fact I live in a village but don't. I live in the next one. Easy to understand really. The address for my house is in fact in the next village 3KM away. Even though my immediate neighbour lives in the same village he has a different village address. Now my head hurts.

    About 4 years back every farang in the province was give an house visit. Irrespective of what extension one had. I was on Retirement but I still had to provide 2 witnesses to prove me of being good character and good to my wife in supporting her. Oh how I hate immigration.
