Why is it a joke?

 

I have to see one doctor in September about one problem, and a different doctor in a different hospital about a different problem. If you don't listen to your doctor, your life can get difficult very quickly.

 

I, like you have no idea why he went for an eye exam but at his age (74) having an eye problem can complicate your life very much.

 

I didn't start wearing glasses until I was 50, my first wife in the UK started wearing them at 11 years old.

 

I admire his daughter for travelling to Dubai even if all she does for Thaksin is simply be there.

There are two main types of eye doctors: ophthalmologists and optometrists.

 

Confused about which is which and who does what? Here's a look at how they're different.

 

Keep in mind that these professionals can work together and that a team approach can be the best option for eye care. 

 

 

 

There are none so blind as those that will not see. It was a ruse. She was there to get orders regarding the manipulation of Thai politicians and the democratic system. That's if there is, was, or ever will be one in Thailand. Politicians? A nest of vipers.

No it doesn’t.

 

Please provide some info or links about the charges laid against Thaksin for thousands of extra judicial killings.

 

If they charged him for things such as tax avoidance and abuse of power, then surely they wouldn’t have overlooked mass murder would they?

For the junta mass murder is less important than tax avoidance.

Much ado about nothing.????

You seem very adamant about this apparent rule. Where exactly is it stipulated that fast food should only be consumed when you are "on the road already"? Is it a legal thing? Or a religious issue perhaps?

It's a religious thing. As the lord said "Pick up thy food and walk." or was it bed.?????

Hats off? I disagree. The police officers standing around while their fellow officer is being attacked is disgraceful and shameful. He should have been taken down and arrested for attacking a police officer regardless of the reasons for his behaviour. It undermines the authority of the police. I suppose they would have stood around if he had been attacking a fellow traveller. They have made themselves a laughing stock. What was the reason for this idiot going on the rampage?

"Mum! They are trying to take my skateboard away from me.! Tell them they can't or I'll  tell Dad."????

Does sound like he was not wearing a helmet.

 

An almost identical accident happened here in Petchabun a couple of years ago. Didn't make the news anywhere. Swedish guy only here a week wandered into oncoming lane and died in head on collision.

No helmet.

 

9 out of 10 foreigners I see riding around here don't  wear a helmet. Presumably they think on a short journey with little traffic a helmet is over the top. A very foolish assumption. 

 

 

Perhaps if a helmet had been worn 'over the top' he would still be alive.????R.I.P.

For smokers the easiest way is to carry a small container to stub out and take your fag ends with you.

During this period of Lent aren't monks confined to their Wats?  Why were the police involved other than to investigate the alleged corruption of the abbot?

He said, "My 3cm shortened leg has had me going round in circles trying to get funds to correct it." If he can still indulge in kickboxing he should consider himself lucky.

I nearly hit a buffalo that was sleeping on the road in Brunei. And an elephant crossing the road in Bangkok. Plus a charcoal seller on his unlit motorcycle combination. Their colouring makes them all but invisible on unlit or badly lit roads. R.I.P.

1993 Toyota Corolla.

To clarify, do you mean at immigration or at your bank?

At immigration.

Does the bank statement showing that the Bt800,000 has not been removed before three months have to be done in person? Or can my wife do it?

The monkey thought he was a flasher.????

I was under the impression that when we were buried we were reincarnated as worms. Do worms breath?????

He's returning on 10 August.  Oh no he's isn't, oh yes he is.

 

What we need is confirmation one way or the other from his family, not from 'another source'.

So you enjoy the pantomime too? Without a sympathetic government towards him it would be a case of 'Look behind you!'????

I must admit, their style of driving ( I was in the Mid East for some years) is likely to be in conflict with the Thai nature. 

Really? I thought it was akin to Thailand. The driving. Not the nature.????
