Anybody know whether of not there are planned events this year?

If it was my father I'd ask him for a sort of bucket list to see if there's something that he would like us to do together.

I think that you have highlighted one of the reasons why people dislike Jews. If you can answer your own question you are probably Jewish and you will go on reminding us of the atrocities committed against your people until the end of time. Most of us had family members or friends who suffered during the World wars, but after a period of mourning we move on, but you can't. Of course we don't know the names of the wars in question. we don't want to, isn't it enough to be forever reminded of the holocaust?

Like James the 1st he was probably Scottish!

Thanks for your replies, I asked the question on behalf of my ex wife, who's coming to visit, She's decided not to risk the overstay, as she's flying to Cambodia when she leaves here.

When do I have to leave and what would be the consequences if I left a day late.

I don't think it's that people don't want their children, it's more likely that failed marriages have created 1 parent families and the parent can't look after the children and provide for them at the same time. The classic scenario is that the husband <deleted> off, the wife goes to work in a bar and the kids get dumped on grandma. With no welfare system and a husband pleading poverty, what else can she do?

It is said that Dr Prin of Bumrungrad Hospital is the go to Ophthalmologist for the rich and famous here in Thailand. I'm neither, but I put my trust in him for cataract surgery and the result was perfect. Fortunately the operation was timely as I was millimetres away from glaucoma.

That doesn't look like a frangipani to me

I'll give it a try. thanks Scottie

Thanks for your input

If you're the legal owner, I imagine that all they could ask to see is your blue book

Even Sting knew he was in the presence of greatness!

Obviously depends on the Immigration office

You You D/L a TM30 and get the house owner to fill it in

nothing to do with it. They want our TM30's updated and didn't think to tell us beforehand

I had the same thing happen to me here on Koh Phangan, after 11 years on the Island.

Oh yes you were!

They are service staff most lickly half your age Freudian slip?

Taste Atlas has a terrific website with interesting recipes from all over the World

I think you'll find that most, if not all. 7/11s have CCTV, which you can ask to see, in the event of a dispute over payment. If it's refused, you call the old Bill I

I'm so glad that this hospital has shown its true colours to the rest of the World. A few years back I was sent there by speed boat and ambulance from KP and wheeled straight into ICU having had a suspected heart attack. Along comes a nurse with a clipboard asking me to sign an admittance form agreeing to pay 68000 tbh PER NIGHT for the pleasure of staying. It was Saturday night and I asked the nurse when would I see the cardiologist. Not before Tuesday she replied, there's not a cardiologist on the Island before then. Fortunately I had recovered somewhat and was able to work out that I would be racking up a bill for 200000 tbh having my blood pressure checked for the next 3 nights while waiting for the cardiologist. Anyway, to cut a long story short, I got my gf to call a taxi and take me to the state hospital, where I spent the night. I was given the OK and discharged the following morning and the bill, including medication was less than 7000tbh. Thankfully I was more fortunate than the poor Taiwanese.

The Electricity company still does it

Especially at the 7/11 opposite the police station in Koh Phangan. Fortunately there was a policeman standing next to me when I counted my change, which was 100baht short. He waited with me while the girl who had served me returned , she had handed me my change with no bill and disappeared immediately, before I had a chance to check the change. The policeman also told me that I could check the CCTV if she didn't pay me when she returned. She paid me of course.
