It is up to the individual. Each to their own. Most people do not start at 0900 but some do. That is their choice. I remember in the old day II would finish night shift at 0600 and then have a few beers with my shift. Please keep an open mind and do not condemn the ones that do.

Before it never rained a drop after October. Now last two to three years raining in November every year.

Sorry that is wrong. In 2011 November to March2012 it rained 5 times. I was building a house and remember very well. In early April 2012 we actually had hail. I live in Phayao Province

I have tried to ignore a certain members but I get a message saying I cannot. He is not a moderator but just a painful individual. Could you please explain why?

From and outsider my opinion would be Trump and the supreme court decision re Roe.

. Fire crakers  for the next couple of days. Good luck

We just got our electricity bill. We used exactly the same amount of electricity as the last period (slightly less actually) but the bill was 20% higher this month. We own our condo so it wasn't a landlord price gouge.

I live up north. I get a discount of  about 200 baht. This will be for 3 months. I thought this was for all of Thailand. 

I am watching Alex.

Great balls of fire. RIP

My Euro transfer to Bangkok Bank does. I select expenses for long stay in Thailand as the purpose.

Might make a difference 

Since this one time I contacted Wise and they then tagged my account to be FTT in my Bangkok Bank account. I do the same as you and it now works. Remember I was talking about 1 occasion 3 years ago. You asked if the download was relevant. It was 3 years ago..

I have used it once about 3 years ago. My deposit did not come up as FTT in my Bangkok Bank book. On my lap top I only have 2 pages to print out. I did not show Immigration the 2nd page which had "local bank transfer". They accepted this as proof of foreign transfer. Do not forget that most offices are different.

I suffered Covid  almost 2 months ago. I had slight symptoms but tested positive for 7 days.  Last year I was diagnosed with sciatica. Since Covid I have been becoming more exhausted with very little movement. With more pain in the muscles of my left leg. This leg is where I suffered  the sciatic pain. As a result of this exhaustion my temperament has been has been effected. In the early 2000s I was diagnosed with depression. Very similar to what I am like now. I am 69. I have been to doctors and they say long Covid.  There are many other  symptoms as per Google for long Covid. This is  my guess. Does Covid attack previous parts of your body that have been affect by other diseases?

I have had 3 Covid vaccinations

How about bike and cars driving on the wrong side of the road. I think Police should read their own traffic rules and enforce them. I know this would be a miracle but we can only hope.

Lots of good suggestions above.  Ram Hospital is ok, and you could try the Suan  Dok hospital (is that the correct name?).  I once had excellent and cheap treatment there (special section at entrance for falang).

 

Could it be anything to do with your sciatic nerve?

 

It's possible that a masseur who really knows what he or she is doing could  give some treatment that might help.

Also look on YouTube asking a question like "extreme leg  pain treatment".

Also, look up the Mayo Clinic, the most trustworthy purveyor of medical information on line.

I agree with the sciatic nerve damage. I was diagnosed in 2021. I had xrays and showed up as a pinched nerve in my back. The doctor said it was affecting my sciatic nerve. I was the same as the OP. Difficulty walking and the pain was up and down my leg. I too could ride a bike with no pain. The other relief from the pain when walking was leaning and pushing a shopping trolley. I wasn't given any specific medicine for the nerve damage. My ability to walk eventually improved but it took a long time. Good luck Formaleins

Aaron Francis was a good pick up for you Rip.

 

Got him cheap and I reckon he could be a jet at a good club.

I hope he fits in and gets a game.

Nahhh Rip contracts mean nothing these days mate 3 days to go Demons will land Mills… you read it here first…:

 

 

 

 

Draft is now finished. Mills is still a Swan.

Thanks for the replies. 

I found out today that the water authority in Phayao charge 30 baht to read the meter.  To a farang this not much but to Thais this would be very high. I used to live in a village and they only charged 5 baht for reading. For my bill this month it was a 1\3 of the bill.  Were others aware of this amount charged?

His last shot should have been his first. RIP to the children adults and his wife. Rot in hell you weak bars...

Just got a call from the GF's daughter she is out until November 1st starting tomorrow morning...... She just had a 4 day holiday two weeks ago, so do these kids ever really go to school unless they are in an International School setting.

I cannot understand schools. 1st of November is a Tuesday. Why not start on the Monday.
