Putting a,wet towel on a bed with a fan is a great way to cool down.I ve often used a damp towel as a blanket for that reason.My wife( farang )hates it .Same as when I don't really dry myself thoroughly after a shower and let the fan do the job and cool me at the same time.

Yes and let's not forget who started it all  Sting and Geldof and those live aid <deleted>...I just wanna be able to hate people who aren't like me and not have people rubbish me for it...like it was in the old days when you could bash fags and pooftahs and anybody else who got in your face  and up your nose..

I had my gallbladder removed a couple months ago in McCormick Hospital excellent service.two nights in ward

Cost under 75,000 baht.

Fancy hospitals wanted up to 3 times that amount...often same surgeons etc working in different hospitals

My take on this is that understanding how IQ tests results are assessed is very complicated and if you don't understand how it works you best keep quiet.

Not just Indians ...I ve seen it in Las Vegas with an other nationality...I am loathe to mention in this political climate

There will be a few of my first nation friends in North America discreetly laughing up their sleeves

Fauci was leaving  lap tops infected with the COVID virus in pawn shops in the Northeastern states.

Makro just started carrying ARO brand aged cheddar like cheese...Quite good, under 200 baht for I think 250 grams..

Pretty good deal

Strange. I believe him as I'm in canada and see it first hand. The government allows crack smokers inside public transport. Here i took a pic

 

my tiny asian wife feels unsafe

They have signs saying ,we welcome crack smokers ...Crack from cocaine wonder what borders it crossed coming to Canada.

One of the best things for kidney health is ....water..drink lots of it ....and a can of beer everyday to give you kidneys a good flush ... Sheryl may not agree with the last suggestion but I did get my doctor to agree that a beer with enough water to compensate for the diuretic effect of beer might not be bad .

Double your daily water intake..

No amount of fibre will help or stool softeners will make much difference if you are not very very well hydrated...

From what you indicate you might have enough dosh to qualify for a LTR  visa.  Worth speaking to a lawyer/agent to see if that's possible...It's a better deal if you do .

Yeah I Ve never understood people who don't think and act  just like me .

I looked up the meaning of  within three days...even though both of us are native English speakers...but it did settle the argument... even better I was right.

My wife returning from Greece on May 5 no problem once she tried it with in 3 days of her arrival 

My wife is returning to Thailand May 5 from Greece...Once she realized she had to submit it within 3 days of her arrival ,not before,it all went smoothly and she has the QR. Code in her phone.

Kudos

I had an upper GI scope and a colonoscopy at the centre of excellence in Chiang Mai about a year ago approx 25 k I was sedated to the point I have no memory of the procedure .Unless you have a good reason not to,I would get both ends scoped .

McCormick will probably be cheaper.

 Government hospitals cheaper than McCormick I would expect .

It depends on the clinic..Our local hospital can do them for under 10k baht but one of the fancy clinics could be anywhere from 25 k to 50k or more.

My wife ( farang) started to have it done locally ,as it turned out her molar had exceptionally long root and they couldn't complete the procedure because there equipment wasn't long enough and had to be finished in a clinic in CM about 30 k all in . Unrelated but somehow relevant I had my gall bladder removed a couple months ago .I shopped around and was quoted prices fro 70,000 to 200,000 baht at private hospitals.Was told it could be as cheap as 15,000 at government hospital.Surgery and care was excellent.

Surgeon used a one incision technique.Cant even see a scar .
