I apologize for gate crashing. I had both eyes done 3 yrs ago in a private hospital in Bkk. Surgeon came highly recommended. I was supposed not to need glasses for distance afterwards, nor for reading. I always read with the right & saw distance with the left. This was to remain. Sadly, I still require glasses for both sides. I haven't found an optician who has been able to get it right. A consultant I saw on my last Europe trip commented that the inserted lenses aren't best quality & placement could have been done better. Is it possible to repeat the op with diff. lenses? Present situation for distance makes me feel unstable when outside the house. Yr opinion would be greatly appreciated.

You think these boomers never paid contributions? The present generations don't pay for me. I've paid myself.

You may get more comments when you post on Tripadvisor.

The taxman rarely makes the rules to suit the taxpayer.

You don't get it. A seat booking is no upgrade. Trying online with an agent booking or at check in are 2 diff. cases. You don't fly a lot do you?

This would happen with any airline. You either buy from an agent or with the airline. No half-half.

Why would you want to use them? Book with the airline directly & you have a point to go to if you need assistance. Airlines are at airports to assist. 3rd party platforms are far away.

My doc at Bumrungrad measures it himself with the manual device. My BP tends to be normal when he does it. Too high with any of the automatic devices.

You get around the limit by leaving the country after 182 days. Come back another year.

A hernia op in Bangkok's top private hospital cost 6000$US. May be see another hospital for price.

Every so often you find organic apples from NZ. You can checkout Lemon Farm shops. They claim to be organic. You won't find apples or grapes there.Just locally grown fruit/veg in season.

How did I miss this in 20 yrs I lived in African countries? Where did you live in Africa to have observed this first hand?

You missed the topic. It's about tourists & not about asylum seekers.

Go & overstay in Germany. They boot you out too.

Road is dangerous and often heavily congested getting in/out of Bkk. Took a friend 5hrs to HH recently.

Depends which train you use. No need to travel 3rd class.

We paid 3000 for a limo transfer. Taxi shld be a lot less.

Why did you even think your travel insurance would cover this? The word is travel insurance & it is not a health insurance to cover pre existing ailments to be checked up.

Chinese embassy complains about everything involving Chinese. They do it worldwide.

Do people fly for a food & drink experience? I fly to get from A to B. Never need a meal on a night flight.

I don't even bother about the food. I sleep. Comfort of flatbed is important. For this Omanair suits me.

Yeah, sure. He lives the good life financed by his supporters. What a bunch of dimwits to support this individual. Tommy leans back & has a good laugh.

You could have saved yourself all the typing if you had followed the subject from the beginning. Or was it about showing how clever you are?

I never read that Africans went on a rampage oe were picked up because of alcohol overdosing, smashing up a shop etc. Seems to be predominantly a western habit.

It is not about owning a house but how long you physically stay in this house per year. I did go through the process with DWP.
