In my experience it is very normal. I too have  just come out of a " session" as you have named it . Still a little residual gunk and husky voice and yes lacking energy.

Even assuming you are a very fit 90 I would suggest not expecting instant rebound .

Thanks for the response.

I'm 90. I finished my medication for a session of covid a week ago but a test shows I'm still affected. I have a bit of a cough, not serious, but a feeling of tiredness all of the time. Anyone been through this and is it normal?

Most long vehicles here do not have side lighting. So when they are sideways on to oncoming traffic such as at U Turns they are unlit. I nearly ran into one that came out of a side turning on an unlit stretch of road.

I try to hack off the top. And then maybe I peel a little from the edge which was not hacked off with a clear cut.

 

 

Perfect.

Three ants in your kettle?  Now if you had one of these Pit Vipers in your kitchen as we did this week I might have been impressed.

Overdone!  Your soldiers wont go in there. What's that? An Ostrich egg or a trick of photography?😄

"This is no yoke"

 

Talk about egg on your face, apart from those eggs with stripes on their shoulders and Aviators, I've never seen an egg with a yoke [sic].

Silly me. What the l was I thinking about. Old age. One of the crosses, or yokes we have to bear.

To add to the number of inane posts on AN, I have a question. When you are having boiled eggs and soldiers. How do you open your egg? Like me? Do you tap it and peel the shell off the top, or slice the top of? Something I've tried and never mastered. Perhaps someone could enlighten me on this technique?

One wonders if all alleged crimes committed outside of the country are held against you in Thailand? Possessing and dealing in drugs and a prison sentence served, for example?

What a p***k.😉

Like rats running around in a bucket. Crookedness to be elected as respected representatives of Thai politics. Ah well. Par for the course.🤨

Paroled Thaksin maybe over-playing his hand by provoking Prawit & Co.

Keep a watch out for the Watch Man. Hypocrisy knows no bounds in Thai politics.

Seemingly his lawyer.

Lawyer. He looks Slavic to me. Work permit?😦

I read about twenty to thirty I guess. Being well past my 'Best Before' date I read when I go to bed.  Sometimes during the night to send me off to sleep after my regular soft shoe shuffle in the early hours to the kharzi to send me off to sleep again. One of the benefits of old age is that you can read the same book after six months and enjoy it because you forgot subject. I'd be lost without a book. Now what were we discussing? 😉

Rehab should be left to the monks, they seem to do a good job.

I'm not so sure. About twenty years ago. A young Thai friend of the family was well into alcohol and maybe drugs. His wife persuaded him to go to a Buddhist rehab centre run by monks. After a week there he was found hanged in the ablutions  section. Sometime later there was a newspaper report that another rehab centre run by monks was being investigated for severe abuse of the rehabees. I've always had my suspicions about his death.

Because its fun.

 

Not if you don't get so 'trolleyed off yer face' that a hangover is moderate at worst....  

Not if you drink in better company and don't get so 'pie-eyed' that you don't blow all yer wedge on lady-drinks....

Not if you drink the bootleg swill most bars serve and still to sensible amounts.... (and hydrate before sleeping).

 

 

Each to their own...  but I think even a Chang tastes better than a note !!....   beers are refreshing.

Wine's are excellent with food... Whisky' is thoroughly enjoyable at the end of an evening...

 

So no...  not same thing at all really, not even close.

 

Here. Here. I'll drink to that. Cheers. Bottoms up!

Give it to those that need it. Burn it? What sort of thinking is that? More clickbait?😦

Great stuff. What a combination. Beck and Clapton.👍👍
