Re: Electricity and Water Charges

Not sure if this helps: A year ago a new law came into place that applies to rent properties in Thailand. Named the Thai Rental Law, it affects rental properties that form part of a business. Any person who owns in excess of five rental properties is now classed as a business operator who has a cont...

Re: Chiang Mai Listed Where Couple Can Retire for US$1,500/month

I guess it also depends on where you live. I visited a friend in NongKhai before Christmas. Planned for 3 days, stayed for 3 weeks. He rents a 2 bedroom house with Utility Room, Huge Kitchen/Diner, Large living room, Shower room, 2 toilets, garden, car port. He pays 2,500 baht p.m. It was pretty muc...

Re: Dates when no alcohol sold in Hua Hin

And also in The Thaiger:
April 6 is Chakri Day, celebrating the inception of the Chakri Dynasty, a significant milestone in Thai history. Alcohol sales continue unhindered on this day and its substitution day on April 8.

Re: Has Your Food Shopping Increased?

In general the 'cost of living' is much cheaper in Thailand even for 'farang' food. Tell me anywhere in the UK where you can get a full English for the same price as here.
I have no complaints.

Re: The Recommended Movies Thread

Yes. Surprised at YTS who have a reputation of providing good downloads.
This was obviously a 'camera copy' which I've deleted and will wait for a good copy.

Surely this is just someone’s sense of humour? The first one was Saturday March 31st 2007 and has since become a worldwide phenomenon. "Earth Hour has grown to become the world’s largest grassroots movement for the environment, bringing together individuals, communities, businesses, organizati...

Re: Dried Peas

Thanks for that, BB. Never thought of looking on Lazada and sure enough there are a few sellers of dried marrowfat peas. I'm just about to order some.

Re: Dentist recommendation

Personally, I don't think you can get better than Nana. Everyone of my family have had treatment there, including my grandchildren and family from the UK. Other dentists use her for procedures they're unable to do themselves. They are one of the few dentists that can do wisdom teeth extractions. I'v...

Re: Thai TV & Flash Sales

With 4 TV's in different rooms, I don't have this problem. The only rule is the TV in the living room is English at all times. What they watch on other TV's is irrelevant.

Re: Buying and storing meat

As long as the meat has been stored properly and thawed slowly in the refrigerator, it can be refrozen safely multiple times. If done correctly, refreezing meat does not pose any health risks. Fresh meat spoils quickly, and freezing it is a common preservation method. https://www.healthline.com/nut...
