I took in a soi dog many years ago. Best thing Ive ever done. 2 walks a day and keeps me fit as well. He has blood parasite issue- I think that is what the vet said. Hes on doxycline 2 times a day. Now he is shaking again sometimes. He is now getting old and I worry about what happens when he dies. Do I have to go and dig a hole somewhere and bury him. Or does a vet take care of this? If you have recently had a dog dying in Thailand please share your experiences.

If you have recently done a Will in Thailand can you answer the questions. Actually we had one done by a tin pot attorney 3 yrs ago and want to renew it. 1. The guy wrote a clause for every bank account that I had open back then ie a separate clause. I have a few more since then. So my question is... Cant I just have 1 clause stating that funds in ALL bank accounts held by me should be left to my wife? Or do I have to specify each one separately? 2. Clause about car. The attorney specfied my old car with number plate to be left to my wife. I have since sold that one and bought a new one. To avoid same issue down the line can I just put in the new Will....... Any vechiles owned by myself <name> will be left to my wife. Surely I dont have to specify model, plate number blah blah? 3. I cannot remember this from 3 yrs ago but it seems that I appointed my wife as Administrator of my Will and she made me administrator of her Will. This is despite the fact that we were both subsequently the main beneficiaries of each Will. Was this a mistake or legal. In this new Will we have asked a family friend to be appointed. But Im still interested to know if the young attorney stuffed up on that one. I thought I would just ask here before we go to see a new attorney. thanks

who cares about this. Separating into 2 categories like that. Years ago I shared a house and this idiot guy was fully addicted. Nightmare to live with. One night he ran out and couldn't get anything to smoke. I will never forget that. A complete angry a&&hole. Your comment is thus daft and has little meaning. Its a hugely addictive drug that screws people up.

4 million reasons to believe Thailand has a problem with illegal guns

Problematic in what way>.... I can drive 140 km/hr in a 90 zone and never be pulled over. What are the chances of getting caught taking a firearm to the range. Zero i think -
I live in a small regional city and drove past a new shop selling cannabis. Decided to pull over and check it out. The lady behind the counter told me that I was welcome to open up any of the jars and smell the buds. I did this and 5 minutes later I (think) that I was partially stoned. I used to smoke 20 yrs ago and I know the effects. I was surprised that I could get these effects just from sniffing numerous jars of hybrid buds. They had about 15 varieties there. The last one I tried was CBD hybrid or something like that. Afterwards I started having memory issues and anger problems a few hours later. It was similar to the last time I smoked ages ago. Pre-existing condition I admit. But now I know not to touch the evil green stuff again. Unfortunately its just not for me. cheers

Maybe you can just write the company instead of being a git.

In bumrungrad I got quoted 27,000 for 1 body part. Crazy expensive. The dr was good guy. He said just go anywhere cheaper and bring CD to him.

https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanpsy/article/PIIS2215-0366(22)00161-4/fulltext Its long been known about the link between cannabis use and mental health conditions. The above article in the Lancet Psychiatry website confirms this fact once again. 20 years ago I smoked a lot of pot and it caused me mental health issues. I will not touch it again. I assume the esteemed health minister Mr Auntin didnt consider any of this when legislating the new cannabis laws..... Amazing Thailand Any new or existing users of cannabis need to be mindful of the above research.

I've always wanted to live in the States. I'm getting quite tired of living here in Thailand. Then I saw this video. 'Walking Kensington Ave K&A [4K]' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJ1Wq7gHSyI I know its the extreme side of America but made me think about the fact that perhaps its not so bad here. I would like to here from some Americans about their country at the moment.

Why, what are you afraid of? Are you paranoid? -

Are you saying you will have a shot once a year. Even though they say its best to have every 4 months? -
I have heart disease and Im on meds. I worry that if I apply for travel insurance and get rejected due to being honest about my condition then its a pain trying to find a new company. If Im over there and something happens I will not make a claim if its heart related as I know they will investigate and find out its pre existing condition. Therefore should I disclose to the company or not? thanks

We have a small business and employ up to 5 workers. They work hard but we pay the well above the norm compared to our competitors. We pay double time if they work on public holidays. They are registered on SS system. We follow labor laws. We give them 500 lunch money per month and overtime from 430pm onwards. Im always buying fruit and cakes for them to eat during the day etc. Despite all this we are finding it tough to keep our workers staying long term. We just had a member of staff say to us a few weeks ago that she wanted to take a week off and see her family. Shes only been with us for 4 months and she agreed no pay this week. So she is off this week and we get a message saying sorry but she will not be coming back. We didnt reply to this line message. Totally unreliable and annoying for us. I dont want to pay her because she hasn't given us any notice. I feel I want to teach her a lesson. What would you do? It will be annoying if she turns up and makes drama demanding her salary. This <deleted> has been happening for several years. Staff quit anytime they want. We learnt not to pay annual bonuses on the 29th dec right before they go away for holidays. The reason is we always have staff that dont come back on the 5th Jan. Now we pay monthly bonuses on the 15th of each month on the proviso that they turn up on time and no casual days off (ie dont turn up for some random reason) We are obviously not employing graduates from Mahidol uni and I understand the mindset of the average thai that has no education. But one would assume most people would be professional enough to respect the boss enough to just give 2 weeks to a month notice. I feel living in this third world mentality here in Thailand is wearing me down. We have a successful business but its completely dependent upon our staff turning up.
