Re: The books and reading thread
As to Tony's Bookstore . . I answered my own question by dropping by. I discovered that Tony's is no more. The store is still there but now called "Baan Nang Sue." ( Reading House) There were people inside and from what I could see there are still books/bookstacks but the sign on the door ...

Thai Driving License renewal 2019 to 2025
This is such a confusing topic to follow . . .and I know the expectations and comments will probably not reflect well on Thai bureaucracy. But if I can get a simple clear list/update of what is needed from someone who has been there recently it would be wonderful. Renewing my five year licence at Ch...

Re: Termite repair person
Thanks everyone for the input and suggestions. I believe we are not the only homeowners in Thailand using the "If you see'em- spray'em!" method of termite control. OK granted Chaindrite spray . . .or the Chaindrite white powder probably doesnt affect an underground nest with a queen but it...

Re: The books and reading thread
Tony's Bookstore? Back when this was the Blue and Yellow bookstore, I was a regular patron. The "exchange" part was especially attractive. . .bring a bag of books to exchange and collect a bag full of new books at an attractive discount. Does anyone know if this is still the policy? And wi...

Re: Refrigerator repair shop?
Bumping up this thread because I believe we now are in need of a refrigerator serviceman. Still working fine but the plastic water tray in back has developed a large hole in what must be the hottest part, right over the center round black "thing" that is probably doing the cooling. The bac...

Credit Card for expats?
I need a new credit card. My VISA card with Chase is dead thanks to hackers and the absolute worst customer service department in the universe. Never seen so many formulaic replies "We will get back to you in 3 to 5 days" etc. I applied to my US bank but immediately came up against the nee...
