  1. Your recommendation of Bangkok Hospital was very helpful. The doc we had seen at the hospital nr. Nana had made the problem worse which resulted in an emergency situation. Bangkok Hospital got it right immediately. Great treatment & care by vascular surgeons. 🙏
  2. This achieves what?
  3. Would there be a fundraiser if he had died in UK? Every Brit needs a fundraiser when in trouble. How do they have the money to come to TK?
  4. Many thanks. Yes, I do want a 2nd opinion.
  5. I worked in Siem Reap for 3 yrs. Best place I ever lived. But our interests are different. And it was 25 yrs ago. It was not cheap for me then, it is not cheap now. All depends on your lifestyle. Can't comment on visa as my employer did it.
  6. Did you get treatment there for varicose vein problem?
  7. Thanks.
  8. Went to Bumrungrad as this was easiest & instant appointment.. Doc offhand decided it isn't DVT but just a phlebitis. Didn't want to do ultrasound. Just got medication. I'm not too happy as I have experienced different treatment in Europe.
  9. Private as it is easier.
  10. Tks I did consider this.
  11. I'm looking for recommendation for phlebologist/vascular surgeon in Bangkok for varicose vein issue. I wear compression stockings. Suddenly an area on the lower leg is slightly painful & red = vein inflammation? I would like to see somebody asap. Thank you.
  12. The Aetas isn't a condo but serviced residence. It doesn't have 21 flrs but 18. The road width is nonsense. Aetas has easy access for fire trucks right around the building unlike nearby 14 floor fmr. Chateau de Bangkok which has no resp. narrow access only. But this will now become a full service brandname hotel.
  13. ..workers in 7/11...- Do they even earn enough to pay tax? I doubt it. :-))
  14. I did get that. But he said he never had to show his ticket to the airline. To travel on visa exrmpt with a o/way is careless. Whenever I checked in on o/way ticket airline asked to show the visa. Major ones tend to ask.
  15. How do you check in without a ticket? 😌
  16. There was no fee in Bangkok Pathumwan Office. All I brought was my pport & condo lease.
  17. Rather sad that you can't live without booze for a few hours. It should not come as a surprise that Saudia is a dry airline as Saudi is a "dry" country.
  18. I'm not talking about Europe but about EU. But tax @ source is an OECD rule. And no, you cannot trade to yr hearts content. Unless you live in UK you haven't got an account there. Just selling what I had and getting the money was a nightmare without UK base & account.
  19. Only if you have an income from the country like pension. From any income from investment they take 35% tax at source.
  20. 🙏. I would prefer not having to return. We live in Bangkok & cost of living is getting closer to European countries. Hope all goes well with your plans to relocate to Thailand.
  21. I'm in my 70ties. As a consequence of being hit by a car 5 yrs ago I suffered a kidney injury which most likely require me soon to need dialysis. I have private medical insurance for inpatient cover. Dialysis will be my bill. This will eat into savings quickly. Back in Europe I will get it free. It is a difficult decision after spending my life overseas for nearly 50 yrs.
  22. As someone who had planned never to return we sold our property in EU. we are now in a situation where we may be better off returning. The rental option 20 yrs ago looked easy solution. Now rental properties at an affordable price are hard to find. To restart from scratch is more daunting than it would have been 20 yrs ago.
