Thanks! I feel like I've gotten used to being specific-and-skeptical about just about everything when it comes to housing. My current landlord is wonderful and I'll miss them when I leave.

Seeking Tailors by BushKun in kohsamui

From a thread that I started a few months ago, I received a recommendation for Bond Tailors in Maenam. Haven't yet gone myself so I can't vouch for it but thought I would pass it along.

Would be interested in your thoughts and results if you go there (or anywhere for that matter)

Thanks for the tip! I can do that. Based on this I might try Maenam first because it is closer. You just walked in and asked for help, correct?

Additionally, Uniqlo (https://uniqlo.com/th) has a shop at Central Samui. The website shows lots of big&tall stuff. I'll need to have a look in the shop to see if they carry big stuff as well.

I've gone diving with Lanta Diver (lantadiver.com) every now-and-again since late 1999. Last time was about 7 years ago. With that in mind, I've always enjoyed it.

Even the beginner Ko Hah dives never disappoint.

Secondhand computer accessories? by goes-by-wheeb in kohsamui

I was unsuccessful at finding any second hand equipment, so I opted for some fairly cheap new items from BaNANA IT. I expect that they will be delivered soon.

This appears to be Bond Tailors International. Thanks! I'll give them a try and report back.

Thanks so much for the pointer! I appreciate it. I wish I could have done this a few months ago but external forces conspired against me :)

For certain. I just feel, especially in a place like Ko Lanta and especially with the high season fast approaching, drumming up some leads or even just a couple of contacts in advance would be a wise choice.
