DHL 'ON HOLD' - what to do?
Hello all, skip to the Tl;Dr* if you don't want the very tedious details... I made an order on Amazon.com using credit in my account from gift cards I'd built up. I think this might be part of the problem. Amazon took it as all one order - as they do - and made me an invoice showing the cost of the ...

Re: ANTS EVERYWHERE! I need Boric Acid - anywhere in central PP?
It's been just under eight months now and I still do not have ants. A combination of killing the nests and not leaving food crumbs etc around seems to have done the job. And if a different breed of ants, or a new nest appears, I'll lknow just to find out what they like, mix it with Boric Acid and ki...

Is there still a ban on men 50+ marrying Khmer girls?
Is there still a ban on foreign men 50+ marrying Khmer girls?
Been together five years. She has a job, lovely girl. But the harbinger of doom in a bar the other night said I couldn't marry her should I wish to.
Any idea? I used the search function, but no doing.
Thank you in advance.

ANTS EVERYWHERE - GOOD NEWS UPDATE
Hello Everyone. I came to the forum to ask a question and remembered this post and thought an update would be good manners. Still completely ant free. I do keep the place cleaner, wiping up bread crumbs, or any food really. But it would appear the boric acid killed the nests and the job is - for now...

Re: Buying VND for short trip to Vietnam (and bus?)
Thank you all - all the info I required in those replies. This forum saves the day again.
I need a fair bit of Dong (fnarr!) because I am paying for the hotel in VND as it was the cheaper offer.
Really appreciated. (map was a great touch, thanks)

Buying VND for short trip to Vietnam (and bus?)
Hello All. I am taking my GF to Vietnam next week and I haven't got a clue what to do. I've actually been before and managed to sort it all out, but now I'm an old man and it seems to evaporated from my brain, with a lot of other things. Anyway, the questions I hope someone can answer..... 1 - Can I...

Re: UK Tourist Visa for Khmer Girlfriend
Hello everyone Thank you for your input it's much appreciated - if a little bit discouraging. We'd certainly be travelling with return tickets and I have enough money in my account - as does she - to show we can afford the holiday. She has a mother, grandmother, and two sisters who live here, the mo...

Re: Planning to visit Patong next week - is that a no-no now?
Very late update - had no trouble at all getting taxi from airport to Patong, usual route was fine. Someone said Patong was a rip off and a hideous place, I've been going there regularly for 20 years and love it, so no worries there, horses for courses. Might go again in a few weeks. Has been taken ...

Re: ANTS EVERYWHERE! I need Boric Acid - anywhere in central PP?
I noticed I had a slightly sarcastic request for how I'm dealing with my ant infestation All gone - Boric Acid. Had to test what my ants liked, turned out steak was the winner. finely chopped steak and put in a water and boric acid mixture. They ate, they got it on their bodies, they took it home, t...
