That's very true I was watching a YouTube Isaan video recently where the farang in it said he still locks his doors even though he knows everyone in the village It's a bit like my brother who is a policeman telling me someone stole his orange juice from the staff fridge ,I guess it can be opportunistic

May I ask if you can still exercise, like squat down without pain ?

I didn't know about the "grades" Thanks for highlighting this . Eventually I guess I'm going to need a MRI so this will be good to know

Yes I might see a physiotherapist, or someone specific to knees. I think as Sheryl said I'm not used to this jumping with a skipping rope ,it's a group boxing class so everyone grabs a skipping rope and skips hur a few minutes, so I don't want to just stand there with everyone looking at me but if it gets worse I may have to "skip" the skipping part I will see how it goes ,I don't want to go in for day surgery if your can help it I will try the Voltaren cream for awhile and see the physio It must be torn ,it's not massive pain ,just a dull aching type pain in those indent areas inside the knee . May I ask has anyone used those knee support things that wrap around the knee? Some are very expensive,I'm not sure the difference ? I'm thinking of a combination of Voltaren cream and then the knee support wrap on It's just a nuisance to have because I want to start boxing and martial arts again Obviously my age I guess ,geez I hate getting old

I guess to be PC you can't say that now ! I have to say Happy Holidays !!!!🌲🌲🌲 Merry Xmas to Liverpool Lou , Pattaya57 , GammaGlobulin, thaibeachlovers merry Xmas in New Zealand , Simon ', onemorefarang Scuba Who else I missed ?

Adelaide taxi driver Mr Oake, 28, and Som had been holidaying in Prasat, near Surin in northeastern Thailand, for two months when they travelled between villages and were set upon by three men in a drug-fuelled, racially motivated attack in March 2010. His attackers had been drinking on the night of the incident near Som’s village of Prasat, 410km northeast from Bangkok. Thai police say the men had also consumed methamphetamines. Mr Oake was slashed in the head and on his arms with a homemade machete.

I might try this Voltaren cream I will just have to settle down a bit on these skipping rope , I am there to do boxing training I have no idea why in these boxing group classes they make everyone do jump squats , There is a "clicking " sound from that knee too , The problem with going to a doctor is they hear you have private health insurance and suddenly you need a operation

Anyone had this surgery ? I have had a right knee pain since starting boxing , I think it was the jumping skipping rope and squats etc It seems in the right leg in the right side of the knee inside if that makes sense I told another guy he said a Anthroscopy can fix it It doesn't appear to be broken just a little paper n when I stand up ,I can't do body squats anymore this Anthroscopy?

What's the unemployment rate like in the UK? And mortgage rates?

Thanks SF ,yes I love to start my day in Pattaya with that morning sunshine knowing I'm living the dream

Yes I actually met much worse , I won't tell you what "service" they were willing to provide ,however they are on the Pattaya meeting apps

Is there a quiet style "piano" type be at in the 5 star hotels?

How very true! Nearly everyone 99% spoke very good english when I was there

Very hard to find a "quiet" bar nowadays,music blaring in the surrounding bars . Does it need to serve alcohol? Why not air conditioned coffee shop? I suppose it depends on what you are looking for? Girls? People watching? Etc

🤗😁Well thankyou lamloki....I guess that proves I'm not one! And I'm sure a lot in here would agree🤣

There you go 🤗

Well said🙏

Absolutely! The only downer is I guess living 30km out of Pattaya is forced to own a car If they had better transport on the Darkside I would consider it

You sound like the life of the party Chris 😄

Oh agree 100% , some of the posts started on here are ....well...quite frankly I don't know how to describe them But let's get back to positivity and how we all enjoy the paradise of Pattaya 🤗

Oh Bob ,that's not like you Wake up on the wrong side of the bed?

The evidence I see is people ,and also those of Anglo Saxon looks, are protesting in the streets to Welcome refugees . Would you agree that anyone who has a different opinion is called a racist? I see many who are of Anglo Saxon background calling others racist particularly in the UK where that politician "Tommy" was ,where I believe they even jailed him So correct me if I'm wrong ,but it's led me to believe either the silent minority are the loudest or people want to welcome the refugees particularly the younger generation in the UK Are you saying the majority don't want refugees in the UK?

Wow ! That's unbelievable

Look , I checked out the Darkside on my last trip , I did enjoy that big park over there near the football ground but apart from that it doesn't suit me , transport wise
