Re: How Hot Does your House Stay Overnight

I have built 3 houses in my time in Hua Hin and my priorities were first to pick an area which has good breeze much of the day. I found that Hin Lek Fai within 3/4 klms of Black Mountain has worked well. The land size has never been less than a rai , and the house has loads of windows and doors on t...

Re: 'How To' - Requirements for visa extensions etc

Songkran starts Thursday so that and Friday are a definite - even if they’re open on Wednesday I’d give it a miss as it’s bound to be busy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Like you, I suspect the last full day they will be open will be Wednesday Bloody typical! Wednesday is the first day I'm eli...

Dr Nana has my 100% recommendation. Nana Dental Clinic 0991459949 . She was pregnant some months ago so I do not know if it has affected her work load, but her other staff are also very experienced experienced. She does implants and bridges

Re: UK bank closing accounts for customers living in Thailand

I have been living in Thailand since 2005 and have 3 UK bank accounts. They are all active (otherwise why have them?) and unlike many avoiding UK pension annual increases, I openly declare my Thailand address. No bank has contacted me on this issue and with all I have Debit Cards or credit cards whi...

Re: Dentist recommendation

Very soon, Dr. Nana won't be available for a while. She's pregnant and expecting her first child. She was telling me her story so I'm sure she won't mind me sharing it. She's pregnant by IVF. She was able to choose the sex. She had two girls implanted and one took and the other didn't. Quite amazin...

Re: Best Instant Coffee available in Hua Hin

Hmmm ... pouring hot water into a cup with instant in it as opposed to shelling out thousands for a machine, cleaning it, messing with filters, refills, beans, powder, etc. (You got me on the aroma though!) Each to their own, as said I'm no coffee snob and only have one in the mornings. Glad you fo...

Re: Best Instant Coffee available in Hua Hin

No idea, I buy it locally (in Bangsaphan), so it should be. You can get it online if not: https://www.lazada.co.th/tag/noble-coffee/?spm=a2o4m.home.search.3.11257f6dzeB1YE&q=noble%20coffee Thank you very much. I have purchased 2 jars (100gm) of Noble(Brazil) at 144bht each and total shipping to...

Re: Best Instant Coffee available in Hua Hin

Everyone's coffee tastes are different, and I'm no aficionado so can't be arsed messing around with machines, but this one gets me going in the mornings. I use a little Pure Via (Stevia) in it to replace the sugar and a nip of Sangsom at the weekends. noble.jpg Not a fan of Nescafe. Buksi I think I...

Re: Best Instant Coffee available in Hua Hin

I like Tchibo Gold instant coffee, but I believe they use Robusta instead of Aribica. Not a coffee fanatic, but just need a bit of a jolt to get me going in the mornings. Better than Nescafe Gold and Moccona imo. Robusta is a little bitter whilst Arabica is more smooth to my taste, BUT I am no fana...

Re: Best Instant Coffee available in Hua Hin

What do people consider is the best available in Hua HIn or from Lazada.

I refer to INSTANT only and with 100% Arabica beans.

Thank you
