I’m 63 and met my Thai wife 2-1/2 yrs ago and she is the best woman I have ever met and you are correct the happiness she bought to my life is immeasurable, I have never met someone that is always happy and looks at the bright side of everything. We retire and move to her village in 5 months and we can’t wait!! Thank you for your videos not many that put up common sense vlogs.
Thank you for your wonderful videos about your family and your wife as videos really takes me on tris that normally I could not afford. You may recall that my best friend from high school Retired in Bangkok. Sadly, he unexpectedly passed away last yr. unfortunately I did not get an another contact email to know how he died. I contacted the US Embassy about four times and finally last year in July as US citizens apparent are posted with the US Embassy and I got confirmation. So your adventures in Thailand are like a brother to me or best friend. Please keep doing them and I love your positive attitude and philosophy of life. Be well and take care.
Hiya Chuck, Paige hope your plans for kitchens unit's work out for you good idea to have fridge in the middle for easy access for the work tops when preparing the food. Take care all Brian 😊❤
Great show Chuck! I'll b there this fall retired. Been going to Thailand for the last 12 yrs. Enjoy your shows. Been watching you for yrs. Take care and as alway's stay cool 😎 kind and generous! 😊
I just got finished remodeling our villa in Koh Chang, and those cabinets made me think of a discussion I got into with my wife. KITZCHO likes to leave their emblems on their cabinets, I was going to remove them because I don't like to advertise but my wife wants to keep them. Long story short happy wife happy life.
I don't often comment or like your posts, sorry for that. But I want you to know how much you and Paige are helping me with my life choices. Thankyou Again.
Plans you showed for the back wall with refrigerator looks good, follow up on both sides carefully with design and layout kitchen will be great, plus new tiles will be nice change and make it something special for your mother in law,,😊
Hello Chuck and Paige! Great video! Especially the opening with your monologue. Thank you for sharing this little summary of your life. Very helpful 😊. Stay healthy and safe, brother 🙏
I think, the handle on the top part was on the right side. It is for a steamer, so using the lid bending down, the condense water flows back into the pot. However, using it for other purposes, your way to look at it can make a lot of sense too.
Pure truth ! Love that remark from Paige about it being assembled backwards because it was made in China -PRC. Placing that on a microwave safe plate then placing a very damp towel between the plate & steamer bottom. Insert in Microwave for 2 minutes on Highq. The steam & heat rising will keep the corn or flour tortillas soft & warm.
Chuck, when you watch your own videos you see that you have 1 to 4 cooks/helpers simultaneously in the kitchen working hard to produce a fantastic meal. The table in the middle not only serves as work space for them, but also as a short distance hand over place from one to the next cook. If you take it away your mother in law, the chef de cuisine, has to walk much more to prepare the meals. A good kitchen is not only designed by storage space, but also by minimising the amount the person who use it has to walk around to get the job done. Instead of a 3D plan, use a 2D layout plan and simulate on it what the cook has to walk around for meal preparations to get to a good layout and also allows multiple people to work in the same area. Where to store utensils, where to store always to be used ingredients? How to keep raw/dirty produce incoming away from washed and clean produce (Not as strict as in a restaurant, but worth to think about it). Good luck in the simulation games and the design.
I also had a business that failed in the financial downturn of 2008,went back to work in a car dealership but it wasn't enough to keep up with my financial obligations,I owed over two million dollars... Lost everything, didn't have anyone for emotional support. Fortunately, it all turned around a few years later. Rough times that reminded me life is short, that's why I'm in Thailand.
Know exactly what you mean about people just wanting your attention or generally negitive. I seem to be attracting a few of these types in the last few years. Luckily my Thai wife is not one of them. Might be passing through your way today on our way to Nakhon Phanom from Mukdahan. Aussie Mat & Noi who stays young from Veggiemite ;)
Making a kitchen plan drawing is a great idea. One thought--your cabinets seem to be custom around this particular refrigerator. It may be time to upgrade the fridge before your redesign? Just a thought--if your wanted to go with a larger fridge in the future it wouldn't fit? Mafia seems excited for the kitchen upgrades, it will be good for her.
Hi Chuck and Paige I’m sure you’ll have no problems finding a good home for the old fridge if you choose to replace it , or I’m sure your father in laws workers would love it in the workshop, very good video today, enjoyed your background story , and how meeting Paige turned your life around , and it shows don’t give up , hard work and determination can be and is rewarding , Regards Davy 🏴🇹🇭
Thanks for this one Chuck. So many people fall for the stereotype belief Thai women are all gold diggers Thanks for pointing out find the right one They are very supportive (if a little crazy) Moving out there within a month I hope to a little village called Nam kham just outside That phanom Built a house there 5 years ago and it's a good time to leave the UK
Thanks for sharing your story! My wife and I are hoping to retire to our house in Meghalaya in 10 years I will 53, when I tell people I tell people that they automatically assume I don't like USA, I try explaining how many people in other countries love and are more patriotic than we are here in the USA, have you had similar experiences? I seen your Cabela's Tshirt which made the think about it.
I'm 78 and met my beautiful gf last year in Pattaya. I'd been living there for 20 years when we met and it was love at first sight. She is 23 years old but I told her I will take care of her and her family until I die. And beyond😅 She loves Pattaya but I would prefer we move to her village in Udon Thani. Guess age is catching up with me haha
I had a bad stroke & its my goal to retire in thiland hering who’s u had to s u made it work out gives me great hope that it will work out watching ur mum making the move give great hop mongo is my best fruition put in my gin &toinc gin sales has taken off big time here 😊😊
Lots of meat, can not taste any salt. Coating the outside keeps the juices inside while cooking. Only technic not any added salt flavor, actually sweet.
Best thing about being retired is the freedom to not give a feck about anything I don't want to. It doesn't matter where I live the freedom is inside me. I'm glad I don't have to work with all the snowflakes around these days.
Your channel name is no time to be sad. You are not happy and you will never be unless you don`t stop overthinking. I been following you couple of years. You are very proud of yourself and a real Alfa male.
I am an alpha yes. Proud no. The channel name means I don't have time for things that don't matter. Your perseption of people depends on how you think. I am an overthinker and problem solver. You obviously think to much as well.
Thanks Chris, we have that part figured out. It is something to keep them warm, like what you would get at a Mexican restaurant, stored in a container at your table to keep warm since you are not eating all the tortillas at the same time.....
I know its none of my business but i wouldve expected a bit more warmth shown to visitors especially to Soi mafia. I know theres a language barrier but still there are ways to be welcoming with a smile. Sorry if this offended you. I respect all elders.
Chuck, I did not mean weight wise, I meant health wise. Mafia does not look well. She’s holding a towel to her head and everyone acts like nothings wrong.

The truth comes out! Good job, Paige!
Thanks for another good video Chuck! Looking forward to lots of GOLF coverage!! You got a big thumbs up just for mentioning it brother!! LOL! Cheers!
Thanks 👍
Ready for the next expedition, sounds nice Chuck!

There will be a more functional island.
@@notime2bsad Great idea.
Mafia looks great since she lost weight, getting around great. Her exercises working❤
I think so too!
Highest respect for you my friend! You’re an amazing man!
I appreciate that!
Your right Chuck…..NO Negativity!!

Thank you for your honesty with your life. You are a good man with a beautiful wife.
Thank you very much for the kind words hope you have a great day.
Hey Chuck, that food bill is equal to $29.40 here in Australia, probably would get you one meal and one beer. 😭

Just a thought--if your wanted to go with a larger fridge in the future it wouldn't fit? Mafia seems excited for the kitchen upgrades, it will be good for her.
Yes I thought about it but I don't know what to do with the old one I have to give it away.

Another suggestion is to narrow up the opening into the kitchen, this would also give you more wall for extra joinery.
@@notime2bsador use it as extra in the garage
Married my Thai wife 2 1/2 years ago. Best thing that ever happened to me.
I had to custom make a pull out step board along the bottom of the counter so my wife could reach stuff….lol
You and family are so full of love and joy … even know Kow Kom
Paige is lovely person. Still watching this video....

Is that fish any good at the markets? It looks pretty big but idk about how much meat there is or how it tastes with all of that coarse salt.
Lots of meat, can not taste any salt. Coating the outside keeps the juices inside while cooking. Only technic not any added salt flavor, actually sweet.
@@notime2bsad Sounds pretty good then, thanks.
I think there is two custom cabinet places in That Phanom close to you Chuck.
All the contractors are busy. If you know one available send my way.
You can use flat iron skillet to heated the tortillas and test pretty good
The basket was to keep them warm after heated.
Yeah number 1 again สวัสดี 🙏 ตอนเช้า จากเมือง ซิดนีย์ ครับ Have a good day ja love❤
That might be because most people watch the video before they "Like" it...but enjoy😂❤
Thank you my friend.
Good morning Khun Chuck

@@notime2bsad Lucky Chukky was a good harness racing horse about 10-15 years ago. Won half million dollars.
I loved to eat in places like that I always found the food was very tasty 🤤 but
Hey Chuck how much do you tip when you go out to eat ?
When I do tip only 100 baht
Eclectric cooktop medium heat flip every 10 seconds until it’s too hot and then flip again sorry from Alvin Texas

Ikea is in Thailand...nice kitchen cabinets
There are two Ikea stores in Bangkok
Ikea is all Nut and Bolt

@@angelamorgan1153 true
No offense taken. My thought also is if you always expect people to act accordingly you might always be disappointed. Hope you have a great day
No Wai from anyone. How very unusual. No real greetings at all.
U are handsome
That’s a steamer
Mafia does not look good. She needs to go back to the hospital.
Have a nice day
Mafia looks great!!!!
Chuck, I did not mean weight wise, I meant health wise. Mafia does not look well. She’s holding a towel to her head and everyone acts like nothings wrong.
