  1. It takes all kind of different people to make up this great planet of ours. Do you have this kind of problem ? I hope to fluke not.
  2. Extremely heavy rain for the last hour here on Soi Khao Noi ( East Side ) Also had some rain in the early hours last night. We can sure use it for the water supply at the Lake.
  3. Much thunder and pissing down heavy for about 20 minutes over here on the East Dark Side. Cell is moving fast do don't expect to last long. Our daily dose of piss again/
  4. Pissing down rain again, Strange as we have been getting heavy rain for about 10 days and just about the same time also. This is over on the dark side as I believe we get much more rain than down town Patts. This is good as the lake needs the water for the dry season which is around the corner.
  5. Here it comes again. Getting our daily dose of rain here in the Dark Side. Lots of thunder and started a litle rain but looking at TMD radar we can expect more heavy to come. I wonder how the lake is doing ? October and now November has been seen a good deal of rain so maybe the lake is getting full ?
  6. Pissing down rain with lots of thunder. By the looks of TMD radar, this will produce wide spread flooding. Rainy season still with us as we can really use the water/
  7. Does anybody have a link to "Fillable " TM30 form on the web ? Thank you in advance

    VPN's

    I use Opera browser which has a FREE built in VPN that works great. You can set it for americas, Europe and Asia regions. Have been using it for several years with NO problems. No waiting or buffering also. Give it a try as its FREE
  9. Great pictures. My deepest respect and love to all those brave soldiers and airmen that were incarcerated in Hanoi Hilton during the Viet Nam war. I was a B52 crew member 1964 - 1966 and was one of the "Lucky Ones" that was not booked into the Hilton. God Bless them as it was not easy for them.
  10. Pissing down heavy and thunder on Kjao Noi. Rain for about 1 Hr. and now almost stop. Got rid of the dust and crap in the air.
  11. Try using a VPN America IP as Google voice has to have an American IP.GV not supported in Thailand yet.
  12. Yesterday was my birthday so we decided to eat at the Edge restaurant buffet. Over the years, we have enjoyed their buffet as it was quality food and never found fault. The last time we ate there was about 3 years ago. This time it was a complete disappointment as quality and selection of food and deserts had a poor selection . In the past it was generally crowded with customers but had no more than 25 customers this time. This is a RED flag to me. In addition, the lunch buffet was 1,540 Baht per person. Needless to say, they lost a loyal customer.
  13. I agree on your comments but what big USA banks are perfect? All of them are crooks and only in for the $$$$. As a side note, WF charges a flat $40 wire transfer fee up to $75,000 transfer amount. If using Wise transfer $75,000 and their fee is $470.79. WF fee is far far better for sending large amounts
  14. I was successful on changing my SSA direct deposit to Bangkok Bank New York. I could have done it on line using " Mty SSA Account " but decided to phone SSA as I had some questions to be answered. After 45 minute wait, I was connected to Help Desk SSA. They changed my direct deposit to BKB with no problems and answered my questions. I find this is the cheapest way to send the money to Thailamd as Wells Fargo charges $40 wire fee and BKB charges $5. Even much cheaper than Wise.
  15. Wise don't do credit checks, only ID checks AIUI. Please explain what is AIUI ??? When I applied to Wise, they asked me for a color passport and additional photo which I complied.
  16. Go to the page below and set up new account as I had done. interesting that SSA will except your Thai mobile number to send OTP via SMS or voice. Took about 30 minutes to enter all your info to set up account. Works great as you are able to change many things on line as well as change bank direct deposit using routing and account numbers, https://secure.ssa.gov/RIL/SiView.action?URL=%2Fmyssa%2Fmydd-ui%2Fhome
  17. The Bangkok Bank New York branch is considered a US bank. I made a SSA account on line and is easy to change banks direct deposit by providing routing number (121042882) and Thailand BKK account number. BKB charges $5. fee up to $2,000 amount to transfer. A very reasonable fee. I sent an email to SSA FBU Manila PI just to verify that I can do such changes. I am unable to use Wise as they rejected me as well as a few other companies with no reason from them. I did some checking as I have lived in Thailand 33 years now and credit companies in USA have no record of me so I think that is the reason for rejection.
  18. I am thinking of changing my USA Social Security monthly payment to Bangkok Bank New York and then have them credit my Bangkok Bank Thailand account. Has anyone used this method ? If so, can you please explain the procedure to make this change Thank you in advance/
  19. Try Lazada they have loads of it https://www.lazada.co.th/tag/wheat-bran/?q=wheat+bran&_keyori=ss&from=input&spm=a2o4m.home.search.go.3cf67f6dnT1Oy2&catalog_redirect_tag=true
  20. Great to hear procedure went well. Take care and waiting for your final report Saturday. Good luck
  21. Had about 20 minutes of heavy rain here on Khao Noi. Crazy thing about it was bright sun shine doing the down pour. T I T...only in Pattaya
  22. Good info. Many thanks and where did you find this info please ??
  23. USD going back up now. TTE has it at35.45. I think it will make a come back this week to 37. Wishful thinking
  24. Very torrential rain Khao Noi, East Pattaya. Heavy thunder and this storm will produce flooding. This makes six days in a row of heavy rain. So much for the dry season we are supposedly in.
