What she's trying to tell you is that she has very little to no interest at all in you.

Thanks for the tip. Yolla is cheaper than Skype was, and on our first call to America's rural South, voice quality was crystal clear.

I just completed this quiz. My Score 50/100 My Time 264 seconds  

Just passed page 5,200 of the 6,000 pages making up the complete works of Thomas Wolfe. Truly an amazing writer.

You think corn ice-cream tastes pretty good.

Next time with your Thai gal, ask if you can suck her toes. See how that goes. I've heard the request gets interesting responses.

Yep, especially alcohol, which causes mental and physical carnage in Thai society many many times greater than all other drugs combined.

I arrived here in the mid-eighties, and it was really hopping. A great place.

Don't worry about how to eat them. Just dig in and enjoy the mess.

Same thing happened to my wife and me. Nothing had changed, and we have been doing the 90-day thing online for years without a problem. Nothing we like better than a 100-km round trip to the immigration office, where we were told to "wait and see" what the results would be next time we try. Even they have no idea what the problem is. What a <deleted> waste of everyone's time.

From any distance greater than a few feet, tattoos look like a skin disease.

I've been getting drugs from India for several years with no problems from this supplier: malcolmexporters AT gmail.com Email and ask the price for whatever you need. Very nice and helpful people.

My wife of 53 years thought she perhaps needed new prescription glasses but first went to arguably the best (and most expensive) hospital in Thailand for a detailed examination. Although she hadn’t noticed it, the examination revealed that she has cataracts in both eyes. However, she was told that in less than an hour procedure, both lenses can be replaced and her vision corrected as well. Because of our ages, we self insure, so are prepared for sudden medical expenses, but we were surprised by the estimated cost, which seems stiff. The doctor’s fee of 80,000 baht is high enough, but the hospital charge – this for an outpatient procedure – runs as high as a cool 139,000 baht. I guess they have to recoup the cost of their high-tech equipment. And then there is the price of the lenses themselves – 116, 000 baht -- for a grand total of 335,000 baht. Does anyone have any experience with an alternative hospital that can give comparable quality service at a more reasonable price? Once again, Sheryl?

Thanks, Sheryl. Will give this further thought.

What is the price?

Jeez, 800 USD in the States, which I thought was expensive. I would give it a pass, too.

Was she treated in Thailand? Where?

Anyone had a PRP injection as an alternative to surgery for a rotator cuff tear? Is this treatment even available in Thailand? Sheryl?

My wife and I, both Americans, have been in Thailand for 38 years, the last ten fully retired in a home we built upcountry. Most of our assets are in the US, where we have set up a revocable living trust, naming three Thais beneficiaries (as representative of three families). Nothing changes while we are alive, and we use our assets the same as before. Upon our deaths, the beneficiaries become immediate owners of these US assets, without having to go through probate as with a will. All they have to do is divide it all up. Thailand does not recognize trusts, so we have wills for our Thai property. In any case, the trust simplifies everything else, as well as avoiding the courts. Maybe the OP could go a similar route, if allowable in the UK.

Daflon 500, or its cheaper generic, twice daily is helpful.

I know there is no letter available from the embassy. What I'm thinking is the bank gave my wife the runaround. She should have asked to see the manager.

It is indeed possible to have a tear in any of the four muscles that essentially become tendons at points of attachment in the rotator cuff. I have a rotator cuff tear, am 78 years old and have elected not to have surgery. The article about the results of not doing so was encouraging. While painful, I plan to tough this one out -- adding it to a few other infirmities I'm already toughing out.

My wife recently tried to open an additional BB account and was told she would have to visit the US embassy first, for what I'm not sure. We live in Sisaket. Ain't flying to Bkk, rent a hotel room and deal with the embassy, spending tens of thousands of baht for this nonsense.

Do they handle US passports?
