Transit times through Suvarnabhumi inbound

I came through last Saturday just after 12pm, took about 15min at immigration, and about 45min waiting for the luggage. If you are in a rush you can buy immigration fast track online.

Maybe she was going shopping later? It's not that much money!

No, the exact opposite. Littlish guy mid-late 60s, short-sleeved shirt and smart shorts. Wouldn't normally give him a second look.
Sounds like the guy i saw at MV today being yelled at by his Thai gf/wife.

Buying a house already in a company name

I would insist on buying without the company. If they really want to sell I'm sure they will sort it out. If not there are a lot of other properties on the market.

Hua Hin Hospital Vs Bangkok Hospital

We prefer Hua Hin hospital because we believe we get good service. Bangkok hospital is very close to us but we believe in relation to service offered its over-priced.

I also get acupuncture in Hua Hin hospital, very cheap, ladies speak english & I never wait more than 5 minutes.

Mosquitos

PS. I heard white light attracts them, most people in our community have yellow lighting that supposedly repels mossies.

Mosquitos

We don't have many problems here at the end of Soi 102. We stay inside during the mosquito freak out time... Roughly between 5am-7:30am and 5:30pm-7pm. Outside these times the mosquitos are not very active, we only spray our feet, ankles and legs. In the house we rarely get bitten but we do sleep un...

H.H's new road-accident blackspot

The lines on Phetkasem (market village heading south) are barely visible these days...

Which is probably a good thing because half the drivers ignore them anyway at risk to the other half driving in the lanes.

The Grandparent experience

Parents also have the same problem, however as a grandparent it is often harder to discipline the younglings as they're not yours!
