Yeah, not very pleasant swimming with brown trout.

The fist step to getting any really decent lense here is to find a proper optometrist that uses the right equipment to measure your eye strengths. I've had a few pairs of glasses in Bangkok and I have never been happy with the outcome. I can't name the outlets but they were "top" franchise establishments, not individual cheapie places. They just use youngish staff who are really just assistants and not skilled optometrists. So if anyone knows of a good optometrist, then let me know as I also need these varifocal type lenses for some new glasses. I also use monthly use Bauch and Lomb multifocal contact lenses as well and I can't find those in Bangkok either. The locally available daily use multifocals are a different brand and also a bit outrageously priced compared to the UK, where I can buy contact lenses online. Unfortunately I rarely go to the UK anymore and I've never lived there only visited so I don't know anyone who could send them to me.

If you don't want to keep bumping into hookers then hang out someplace where they aren't working. Picking up a girl here who isn't a hooker is the same as in the west...meet some people, hang out make friends and eventually you will meet a woman who might like you. If you are leaching around looking for free one night stands then you need to have something that they like.

I've never had any issues with Chaeng Wattana in 8 years except one minor whinging episode about presenting too many bank accounts and she would only process one of them.

Fair enough....encourage vaccinations again. As long as the nonsense lock downs don't come back again I will be happy enough.

Anyone else that you might want to discuss while you have got interpol on the line.....hint ( Redbull, cocaine, vehicular homicide, fleeing justice, bribery, corruption).

Did Prayut take his begging bowl?

He seems to be trying to boost his profile. Maybe he wants to get really dirty hands and enter politics.

I'm sure he won't get far...but will he get the same sentence as the RTP's own Dr Filth. He should be hung from the nearest tree or as the parents desire.

If only western countries would offer a reciprocal ban to Thailand.

Could you imagine a foreigner being treated in a similar manner under identical circumstances? It would be a draconian prison sentence and massive fine for mere mortals like us. Take a bow RTP...you once again show that the RTP is merely a vehicle for criminality, even for a doctor, sworn to uphold the hippocratic oath.

Friendly reminder, Don't forget that Chatuchak is a weekend market. I live nearby and regularly see disappointed tourists who go there during the week, only to find the market closed, unless of course you want a pot plant. During the week you would be limited to JJ Mall, Mixt Shopping Complex and a few furniture shops.

His new nickname....Dr Death. Disgraceful sentencing, where victims lives have no value and HiSo criminals bear very little consequences for criminality.

Hopefully it was a swab test and not a taste test.

Does that mean Prayut will ban all forms of driving on Loy Krathong in order to stop the daily carnage?

Yeah, I'm sure that the Aussies want this sheep shagger.

Agreed, it's been a busy week for non Brit numpty's and Gottfried seems to have lost his tongue.

Casper is going to get you.

Once he sobers up and he has had time to pick an excuse he will be back groveling to the RTP in order to pick up his vehicle.

RIP to the parents and condolences to the family. The drunk mongrel barstool should be made to pay that child's financial support week in and week out until she is independent and he should rot in jail until he carks it.

Bangkok...nightmare roads, good BTS and MRT system, great shopping. Chiang Mai...good roads, no BTS or MRT system, average shopping. Pattaya...personally I don't like it there but that is just my preference. Can find a place in all locations to go out at night and party.

We just got our electricity bill. We used exactly the same amount of electricity as the last period (slightly less actually) but the bill was 20% higher this month. We own our condo so it wasn't a landlord price gouge.

You forgot drunk or on yaba

Muppets...had a few drinks and then had a great idea. Let's go to Thailand for some Kareoke.

Might as well hide in paradise I guess when you run away from facing responsibility.
