We get out for a ride, once the Boss is back - best wishes Pete D
good she hasn't left ya for good:))
Nice ride! Wear a helmet!!!
@@987654321act always Bro 👍
Hi Richard you are a lucky boy . Can you ride a 350cc on a car licence or do you have to have a motor cycle licence ? 😁😁😁😁
Thank you Brian ,yes I am a very lucky boy 🙏🙏. Great question!!!, so when you live here early days, you can only drive the categories that you hold on your UK license ( for me it was only up to 125cc ) once you get your Thai driving licence you get 2. 1 for car and 1 for motorcycle. Once you have a Thai motorcycle licence, it's for any size/power. All good 👍🏻
@@frompowerlinestopowernaps I have a full UK motorcycle licence so I could ride any size cc
Nice ride 👍
What day did this happen?
Last Thursday night
What a kind/lovey lady your wife is 😊😊😊😊
@@BrianArrowsmith-uf8qm Thank you Brian 🙏. Yes, she has a Heart of Gold 👍
I'm up in Buriram and we want rain, as it's still summer up here.
Well we desperately need water too. Last night we had plenty!!!. Hope you get rain soon. Stay safe 🙏
@@frompowerlinestopowernaps Had a heavy shower today at 4 o'clock, so it's cooled down 😃
Looks a lot bettet than that crap hole Pattaya
Hi Richard Just wondering if you could recommend a good dentist. My husband and I are returning in January and we are going to be staying at scanhouse again. you might remember us visiting you . we are the Canadian couple my husband used to joke with you about me trying to steal one of your tea pots lol You gave us the name of where you thought you had bought the teapot and we drove out .there to find one .
@@user-qw4nn5cs2s Hi guys ,hope you are well of course I remember you always 🙏🙏. I can highly recommend Dental art patak Road. Looking forward to seeing you guys again 🙏🙏
@@frompowerlinestopowernaps Thank you Richard We look forward to seeing you both and lucky and chilli😃
Wow, the last time I was on Karon beach was back in 2011 & my last trip to Thailand was in Samui in 2019. Thanks for your content. I miss the beautiful land of smiles.
Thank you so much for your reply Richard, All the Best for you and your wife Nui 🙏
Hi Richard, you need each year when you renew your marriage visa, have 400.000 on your bank account?
@@humbertoandre4579 Yes, that is correct. You can use some of it if you want. No more than 50%. But it has to be shown back up to full amount again at least 2 clear months before you re apply 🙏
You can do it! You don't need to beat yourself up to lose weight. I put on an extra 20 during covid. Before summer, I would walk 7,000 steps and 5 AM and 7,000 steps at 5 PM and another 4 to 5k steps during the day. I did this 7 days a week for 8 weeks and lost 25 pounds (1.75 stones). Not only did I lose weight, but my doctor removed me from all high blood pressure and cholesterol medicines. The mental health benefits were immeasurable.
@@user-fb8jb5yi6g well done to you 👏. Yes I'm getting there. It is coming off, as quick as it went on 👍. Thank you for your comment and support 🙏
@@frompowerlinestopowernaps I'm not too far off from your age. I'm still working in the US planning my exit strategy. This coffee shop is exactly how I imagine my mornings to be. Cheers mate.
@@user-fb8jb5yi6g only 1 life mate 🤔. Plan well and enjoy it 🙏🙏
Good luck with the weight loss. On the same journey myself.
😂😂. Its not easy but I'm making good progress already 🙏🙏
Great Watch thank you X
Really good, interesting to see explanations about dry cows etc never knew or even thought about that, all farm programmes have seen about milking never go into that... Best Wishes
@@peterdday cheers mate. Glad you enjoyed it 👍
😊have a great time x
@@frompowerlinestopowernaps7225 Thank you 🙏🙏Xxxxxxxxxxx
I saw the Red Arrows in South Africa many years ago when i was a kid. A must see if you ever get the chance viewers. Different class. Great vlog Richard
@@12345678938143 Thank you 😊
What a great place.Loved the air show❤. reminded me when I was a kid, and we used to go to the airshow to watch the snowbirds. The Canadian team flyers. Keep up with a great videos and will see you back in Thailand in January .
It was truly a great catch up loved it. Look forward to meeting you in January 🙏🙏
No snoring at night? 😁
😂😂. Sadly there was lots of deep snoring 😅
@@frompowerlinestopowernaps 😄🌴
Beautiful part of Staffordshire Leek and surrounding area Flash etc and it's not far from Stoke .Enjoyed your post as normal Brian A
God's country. Thank you Brian 🙏
Hello 👋 have you seen Mr.&Mrs Oate cake ? Xx
@@frompowerlinestopowernaps7225 I have eaten lot's of my daughter's Oatcakes but not seen Mr and Mrs Oatcake yet 🤔xxxxxxxxxxx
What a beautiful place.😀
@@user-qw4nn5cs2s Thank you, its as beutiful as I always remember it and it was great to visit my folks resting place again 🙏🙏
have a great time Richard in your home town> I enjoyed looking at your video 😀
Thanks mate 👍👍
Safe travels
Overstayed your Welcome?
That all went well, brilliant job, exellent flights especially the first one, 3 seats to yourself , pity about the second leg, i always try to pick my own window seat so long as there is no charges involved, or ask the check in/bag drop person if there's any window seats available, its usually a gamble to get an empty seat next to you, especialy 2 empty seats, you looked pretty fresh after 15 hours + of traveling , traveling light to ?, enjoy your stay, cheers ,.
Yes, all went well, thanks. Busy times. Both flights were pretty full
Just say Hello 😊have a good times with your family ,love ya x
Love Ya too ❤Xxxx
I think i saw you in your uniform in bangla road the other day and now ur vid gets recommended to me hahaha
@@LOLCAMz what a coincidence mate. Thank you and enjoy 😉
Have still got to go through the licence carry on if you have a full UK licence ?
@@stepho9999 Hi, Yes the UK licence is OK to use here up to 6 months then they expect you to get a Thai license.. The 1st one lasts for 2 years, then when you renew that, you get a 5 year one, which I have now recently done ✔️ 😀
Good morning Richard I hope chilli has a speedy recovery. And his next appointment where he gets his poke won’t be too bad. Wishing you safe travels and a great trip.😊
@@user-qw4nn5cs2s Thank you 😊
Not sure why there is such an obsession with bars given the younger generations drinking less and less
Have you any recommendations for health insurance it's getting a insurance company you can trust in Thailand I have insurance at the moment but I don't trust them one bit after what they did to my friend thanks
Any insurance is always a risk and I prefere to call them Criminals in suits. I did a lot of research and spoke to friends that had lived here long time and one company kept popping up. Pacific Cross. So I have been with them for the last 3 years. Not had to use them yet???..but hopefully they are as good as I hear 🙏🙏
Hi Richard have a nice journey the weather is going to get better mid twenties next week hopefully Brian A
@@BrianArrowsmith-uf8qm Thank you Brian. I realy hope so, I can't cope with cold or cold rain these days 😩 🙏🙏
Nice one mate. Travel safe.
Spoiling them cats 🐈 😊
I know but, who could see them suffer 🤔. I know we cant
@@frompowerlinestopowernaps heart of gold ,safe travels my friend
Thank you Sir 🙏🙏@@TheWelshman50
Doing a bit of music when you get to the uk? 🎉
Hi Matt. Yes ,there is one date in the pipeline. 27th. Very local to me 👍👍😉
CHILLI ?? wtf, its gotta be BILL or BEN, from the flower pot men 🤣🐱
Good call mate 👍🤣
Great update Can’t wait to met Chilly in person and see your restaurant renovations, We are returning to Scanhouse in January.
Great news. It will be great to see you guys again 👍🌝🇹🇭🇹🇭
Hi Richard enjoyed that .More pictures of the new kitten as he grows please
Will do Brian. He's a smart little Bugger!!!🤣🤣
@@frompowerlinestopowernaps Like his Dad
@@BrianArrowsmith-uf8qm pretty much mate. I often hear you say about your 2 dog's!!! Big Bugger and Little Bugger 🤣🤣
@@frompowerlinestopowernaps You have got a good memory for an old un yes Penny and Lucy when I was at work on nights my wife felt very safe Kay says are you opening a new " Cat Cafe " they are all the go now lol
@@BrianArrowsmith-uf8qm I have got a food memory. Very find memories of visiting you guy's on night shift at Bailey's Lane. Kim and the girls too 🤣🤣
Road trip, cant wait. Take care Richard
Thank you. Will keep you posted 👍👍
Nice to see you back bigman 😊
Thank you Sir 👍👍🇹🇭🇹🇭
Fed up with you old timers talking about nothing. I'm 74 years old, but I wouldn't lower myself to this nonsense.
Thank you for your comment 🙏 but us old timers have to live life until the end. You can stay in your little life bubble anywhere in the world but when you roll a 7!!!! Your done ✔️. One life enjoy it and live it 🙏🙏
As 41 year old definitely I live life to fullest everyday too
Im sure you had a power nap after all that great food. Thx for all the vlogs.
You gotta love a Power Nap in retirement mate 😴 👍🏻 🙏
Hi Richard enjoyed the vlog as usual. The subtitles came in handy sometimes when outside with background noise. Are they now off completely? Thanks
Hi mate. Yes, it's difficult when out on the bike, as the wind noise is horrendous!!! So I kill that completely then ad music/ some type. Thanks for watching 🙏🙏
@@frompowerlinestopowernaps Ah that makes sense. Thnx for reply. Nice music BTW.
Happened to me also mate.
Thanks Richard watched that twice excellent ... Love the music ...It's been raining in Leek lol Duck
Cheers Brian. Glad you enjoyed it Sir 🙏🙏
