"Surely finding a Philippine address can't be that difficult." It would need to be a real one for the DWP to send the Proof of Life forms.

"There isn't the money to pay for overseas pensioners". Really!! There seems to be enough to pay for all these immigrants, legal and illegal, MP's "expenses" etc,etc,etc.

That was my first thought but Mrs Jones says nowhere to get that in village.

In a village?? Good idea in a large town or city.

Even more than Anutin and the unelected soldier PM in the last "government"??

It is a small clinic with a green cross in the main side street of my small town/village staffed by a doctor and two female assistants, one is I think a nurse and the other at the front desk. Any signs are in Thai.

I had an ear infection for the first time in my life which made lose a bit of hearing in one ear. I was very pleased with the treatment and cost by the doctor and his two female assistants. I would like to give them something to show my appreciation. Any ideas?

If you start reading about some particular incident, you are surely entitled to know what the outcome is, that's why it is in news in the first place.

I am on this thread, I got it in the Newsletter but did not know until now that it was in the other forum.

I agree, as long as they keep their goings on behind close doors.

Yorkshire?? Oh! Wait!

Now 96,800km and as per picture, well looked after, has had every scheduled oil change and maintenance at Yamaha dealer, no accidents. At that age and mileage has no resale we'll keep it until it stops, daughter now uses it six days a week to/from work until starting uni in June. Biggest single repair expense has been a new fuel pump 2500 baht in November. December 2023 bought the Honda Click 160 ABS. 69,900 baht and so far 3200km. Three weeks ago we did a 180km highway ride, all ok. Considered an ADV 160 but my wife and daughter found it too big to manage. Scooter life is great. Before moving here I'd always had bigger bikes, all the Japanese brands, two Harleys, a Cagiva and two new Triumphs. Now an auto scooter! Such is life... As well as Honda and Yamaha dealers there's also Lambretta and Vespa dealers in the city, Vespas are very popular with the better-off uni students and I see the dealer organises monthly group rides around the province for 150 and 300cc owners. Happy riding. Great bikes but very heavy on fuel, I'll just stick to Honda, although some of their agents are dodgy.

I was refunded yesterday, and no, I did not hand my card to a waiter, but after what you have said I will make sure my new debit card with another bank does not go out of my sight. Your second paragraph, everything you have mentioned has been done. Thanks.

Thanks a lot, that is very interesting. I have just had a message from Bangkok Bank that they have put 1,936.81 back into my account, so that was about 2/3rds of what was taken from my account.

Excellent post thanks, I think now that your last two sentences have got it right. Now that I think about it I did try to sign up for something like FM Movies, but not them, because they had a TV series I could not get with FM movies. So that's why your last two sentences make so much sense. Thanks again.
