    I would gone for that......just had two nights in Bumrumgrad for a biopsy.......150,000 baht.

     

    I've also just had two nights in hospital - not Bumrungrad though.

     

    The bill is always amusing...

     

    I think one line was "non -clinical extras", which I thought had already been covered in "additional non- food".

     

    Something along those lines anyway, can't be bothered to get the bill out again.

    remember Bucks Fizz and the girls ripping off their skirts, but Lulu made an everlasting impression on 13-year-old me. She's still gorgeous at 70+.

    Yes, the skirt ripping moment....????

     

    I think until then, I looked a girl's as interesting but a bit annoying, after that I kind of woke up. ????????

     

    Didn't Sir Cliff have a hit with "The Khiddy & The Fiddler" or some such title?

     

    Jokes aside, it was all 'good clean fun' then, & while change is inevitable, change for changes sake, isn't.

     

    Although some of you may know different, there doesn't appear to have been the radical social changes here, that occurred - & continue thus, in farangistan. 

     

    After all, women's lib never happened here...

     

    Thoughts/experience anyone?

    Flashback to 2002 and those 2 poor girls in Soham, Cambridgeshire, Ian Huntley was all over the media at the time, Mr nice guy, if I remember right he claimed to be the last person to see them alive, he was, it was him that murdered them, Basturd.

     Without diverting this thread, I can still see Huntley on TV saying that Jessica & Holly's disappearance:

     

    "Beggars belief"

     

    May he rot etc.

     

    Back to the OP.

     

    There seems to be a lot of conflicting 'evidence' which changes. I do wonder if the Police have been ordered to prosecute someone

    Amazed that there is so much bile towards one of the few well-managed businesses in Thailand.

    Everyone is free to shop where they want. Having one chain lead the way on convenience and consistency has set a good example for all retail stores in Thailand.

     Because they will put all the independent shops out of business.

     

    Then, they'll set the prices that they want, & people won't have a choice.

     

    I rather like 7/11, it is very convenient etc, but isn't individuality important too?
