Each to his own but prefer to pop 1 tablet a day and enjoy my life eating and drinking what I want and still pain free.

I suffered "moving" pain which later diagnosed as gout. I say moving in that it went from one part of foot to another. I visited doctor who did a blood test. Uric acid levels should be between 4 and 7, mine was 10.5. I said looks like a strict diet coming up. He said no, the strictest diet will only reduce levels by 10% which would make mine still too high. He put me on 3 tablets. One which I can't remember name I was on for about 3 months to help get rid of uric acid quickly. Also 1 Xandase-300 (Allopurinol 300mg) per day and 1 soda mint each day. The soda mint is usually used for acid reflux but doctor said it helps the Xandase work better. My pain quickly disappeared and a blood test every 6 months shows my Uric acid around 5 but always within "normal" range. My blood pressure recently shot up and the cardiologist changed my BP tablets and told me to stop the soda mint because of the extra sodium. It will be interesting to see what my uric acid levels are next blood test but still no pain.

A year ago met a very cute little miss and we hit off from the very first night. Bought her a few things for her dump of a room but no cash asked for. Things started to get more serious in a short time then came the "demand" for monthly salary of 45,000 a month. For that she would come stay with me most of the time but wanted to keep her room and go back stay sometimes. I just said I would not pay that even if I could afford it. So she just said she would go back to working at bar to which I said good luck ad that was the end. During the short relationship red flags were raised and I found out later she was visiting other men at same time.

I would think raping 1 in court be extremely difficult let alone 10

Yes, hot season in getting close.

What could possibly go wrong!!!?

I was in Chiang Rai at the time of the fire and saw smoke from hotel. Went for a walk to see damage. First photo is from Google street view before fire. IMG_5777.mp4

Never use COD which prevented 1 scam as parcel was being delivered as COD. Never lost a package in many years. Hardly ever signed, only for Thai post registered. I had a parcel delivered by courier other day and on the tracking website it had a "Signed proof" box. I never signed but there was a "D" in that box online after delivery. I live in a fairly secure gated community and had a few parcels left with no losses. I try to be home when deliveries planned.

I am in Thailand not Africa.😁

There is no such thing as 12am or 12pm. It's 12 midday or 12 midnight. One reason 24h time was created to prevented confusion. From Google :- AM and PM are abbreviations used to indicate the time of day. AM stands for ante meridiem, which is Latin for "before midday". PM stands for post meridiem, which is Latin for "after midday".

There are ways of doing almost anything in Thailand.

Took an ex to a popular cosmetic surgery hospital (production line) in Bangkok to have eyelid surgery. Now don't ask why but she is from Myanmar and has an old ID plus in the process of getting a Thai ID. On enquiry she showed her Thai (partially) ID and was quoted a price. We booked the op and went to Pattaya for a few days. Now when she was checking into the hospital she showed her Myanmar ID, why I don't know. The lady checking her in said not Thai so 30% more charge than quoted. I said why it's the same eyes. She then said if it was me (farang) it be 50% extra. So I just told my ex we will do in Chiang Mai and left.

I once tried to post a Ledger Nano X to Oz. It was packed ready to post. It does have a battery although very small. Post office response was can not, battery. Ok. So I cheated and took in a Nano+ which does not have battery and this model has a clear plastic case. Told post office staff similar in package (wasn't lying). They looked at the + and said battery. I said no battery in this. He looked and asked how to turn on. I said needs to be plugged into computer to get power. He talked to other staff an realised could not win on battery he said can not has circuit board. I left. I then took a Thai friend to another post office and in a few minute accepted and posted.

Bankbook.

Why worry about what other people spend? Concentrate on your own finances and you might be happier. Then again if you are a CC, maybe you will never be happy.
