There was five of us at a restaurant in the US ready to order. The waitress didn't have a pad to write anything down. When I said something about it she said "it's OK I have a photographic memory" I laughed in her face.

By the way the US is near "merica"

I hope you ate it all......and then refused to pay because it was not what you ordered!

This is a trick pulled by one farang I know, always cleans his plate and then does not want to pay!

I am surprised he survived the first one he tried. Things are not going to go well for this guy. But we know these guys never leave...until it's in a bag anyhow.

What is a Chavas anyways????

I came for low cost of living. Being a non drinker and non smoker I find ,women the world over are easy to get,but thai women are definitely more feminine and a joy to be around more so than women from many other countries.

I suggest you havent tried out Vietnam....Give it a go, you most probably wont come back to Thailand....

The eyes on those Hanoi gals are captivating.

The worst tourists I encounter, without doubt, are the brain dead groups of single British males who arrive around Xmas time. Mostly they have shaven heads, are heavily tattooed, always loud, usually drunk and show no respect to anyone. Their behaviour in bars is abhorrent and anyone who objects to their behaviour is threatened with violence. They are an absolute disgrace to their country!

Why pick on the British?, I have seen many Europeans Aussies American just as obnoxious and also met many Brits tourists and ex pats who are quiet the opposite to your labeling of Brits.

Sorry but I'm British and I'm ashamed to say our Wrecking Crews make other Nationalities look like babes in arms

I would hate to see them try that in the US.

Somebody needs to set these guys straight.

Cost of living. The girls are fun. Pretty good friends with a couple of them. No I am not going to let them control my bank accounts.

You know how it is Sheryl, In my decades of seeing Drs they ALL say the same things Word for Word. I have no reason to doubt Dr Karnsiri is a trained Endo

Dr Karnsiri is an Endo. She does very well.

They try to run these bars with one refrigerator. Some bars will turn it up to save money. Often they stock it too close to serving time. The list goes on. My favorite bar usually has cold beer because I trained them and I have been a monster bar customer in the past, so they listen to me.

And a petrol station

I thought that man Soi 8 Theppressit passed away?

Alan, She is going to love SF. I would take her to the Fish Market, A couple of Thai Restaurants, China Town.and ETC.

I have my results. PT, %PT, and INR 1.0.

It all makes sense now. The range of 2.0 to 3.0 is for people on warfarin that have had problems with clots. I have learned many things today and I wanted to thank people that responded to my post.

Keep asking. My Pharm has to order it. It takes one day.

if you are doing pt/inr, a range of 2.0 to 3.0 is a common desired range. range must be set by a doc.

i use the coaguchek and check pt/inr weekly. i am on coumaden/warfaren for life due to a DVT.

coaguchek is a hand held device which gives readings with in a min.

I have read about INR extensively. That is the part that doesn't make sense. He said less than 15 was normal.

With this meter do you do a conversion with that number he gave me?

Lab said off the cuff that <15 is good and that mine was very good.

I have some time and I thought I might get some help here in the interim.

That's what I am hoping at 3PM. The device website was little help. Like you said this info is very important. I suspect the device maker wants you to talk to your Dr.

I just had this test and they said my result was 1. I get the official report at 3PM. I don't understand this scale. Can someone direct me to a website or explain it.

Thanks in advance

About 500 THB at the Lifecare lab in Pattaya. T3 and T4. Only 250 THB if you only get T4.

Let us know how it works out.

These wildlife photo and identification threads are fascinating.

It's been raining for days near Sakon Nakhon.

For the past 2 weeks we have had massive downpours and thunderstorms here in Udon.

A bit late with the good news arn't we.

Yes. I should have brought the subject up sooner.

My buddy has a house and he is sick of the rain already. His roof(Brand New) is leaking and the water is washing his new yard away.

The Thai repairman said he wouldn't work on the roof if there is a chance of rain.
