Because you are wearing those dreaded ankle socks !!

Unannounced visits from friends!! I hate that anyone who rocks up at my door unannounced Pornhub is playing on the computer and the place is a mess !

I imagine you to be one of those *old" men who want to be old ( walking slow with your pot belly) catasphrizing your "disability " which is arthritis in the ankles as you mentioned. You could always go down to the skate park with your mobiliy scooter do some racing and jumps with the others . What irks me is guys my age who want to be "old" ,thru the o it's the norm I'm still doing Jujitsu and boxing and going to the gym sometimes twice a day FFS start living life you only a few years left

Interesting point Brian I wonder if Bali tops the retirement destination for Australian retirees ? Bali is number 1 for a holiday destination for Australians but is it number 1 for Retirement?

As this is not just a exclusive Thailand centric forum anymore I want to know how many guys here are expats in OTHER countries such as Philippines, Cambodia, Indonesian,Bali , Vietnam,Laos etc I know Philippines is probably the second biggest foreign expats after Thailand and to a certain degree Cambodia or would Vietnam now beat that? Well Bali is up there too as a retired destination and the World is changing Cambodia was once second I believe in retirement but now I think Philippines then Vietnam

As the OP I just want to clarify this is a tooth in right side upper area like 3 teeth towards the right from the front Root canal and metallic crown with health insurance still quoted around 70,000 baht in Australia Some say that's ok Any Philippines expats here ?? What's the price in Manila?

I once thought about learning how to pick pocket ,I'm not where the best countries are to learn Romania??

I will send you the printed quote they gave me at my last appointment, No one said $5800 ! You don't get 50% off with health insurance !!! No idea what the full cost is ...but ..I will get the written itemize on Monday and send it to you and I have the Top cover AND I'm using the health insurance dentist ...HCF Gap fee for HCF dental with Gold cover $2880 for root canal & metallic crown for Gold cover insurance then you can personally apologise to me ,and that's for ONE tooth upper right side ,3-4 visits HCF dental

Yes two bad experience is in Pattaya Hot a teeth cleaning he broke my tooth going too hard Had to get it repaired back in Australia!!!

The $2900 AUD fee is the gap with a health fund

The worst I see is in cafes in Australia,taking ya bloody dog to sit under the table !!

It could even be considered racism. I wonder if dogs can get gay?

So around 20,000 baht ! Great price,I don't think I have seen I cheaper How many times did you have to go? Was it like 2-3 times ?

If only I could read Thai 😊but I better it was 15k with the crown?? Wow !!! Great price ! Bangkok ,??? Isaan ?

Paint it pink ! To make the boys wink !🩷🩷

Not sure if anyone wants a cow as a pet ?

20,000approx ,is this in Pattaya may I ask ?

Yes it's the humane thing to do I noticed when walking around a Isaan village back in 2017 There were dogs in packs that were street dogs cared by the temple mangy cut disheveled dogs some angry barking And others left out the front of their house that had owners No bicycle riders are allowed , No one that wants a leisurely walk and SOME of these village dogs have OWNERS but hey they don't care if their dog is out the front of their house NO FENCE and it attacks you as you walk or CYCLE past , just don't hurt their dog they say !!😳 So no one could WALK or even CYCLE past without being attacked by these cretins

These dentists in the West are bloodsuckers ! Probably same in the UK Are dentists expensive around the World? What about places like Poland and Hungary? I heard in Australia their hourly rate as a employee iof a hospital is $200 an hour ! I have decided I might get in on this dentistry myself with that kind of money !

Might have a point ..I never thought of that ,but I will only stay Thailand 4 weeks ,I think a implant will be more time

I was a bit sad to see some in here mentioned about poison etc That's just not on or the morally thing to do and you are a bad person, but what poisons would a bad person use Just reminded me writing about "bad persons" a movie I saw years ago about a english reporter who travelled to Lebanon and I was whipped/caned on the feet and the guy saying you are a "bad person" What was the name of that movie ?

Yes thanks But does that include the root canal ? Ask her what the approx cost for a root canal plus metallic crown is ,I have no idea what a metallic crown is but that's what they put in the quote for $2,900 / 70,000 thai baht

I have put the topic title as I know a lot of you are bored with dental topics but I couldn't careless I'm asking the questions whether you get bored or not I have been quoted $2,900 AUD in Australia which is around 70,000 Thai baht for a Root canal includes a metallic crown apparently have no idea what that means but anyway I argued with the Australian dentist "This is too much ,I'm only a hospital cleaner I shouted " I will give you $1000 ( around 23000 Thai baht) He shouts back " If you don't like it......leave !!!!! Leave !!! If you don't like it !....leave ! Upper right tooth near the front 3rd from front About 3-4 visits approx 70,000 baht !!!! How much in Thailand or Cambodia or Philippines? Well my aybe not Cambodia Philippines may be a option BUT I'm thinking more Thailand!!!! I'm thinking of making a trip to save and cancel this Australia dental appointment!

Yes I think the OP is a bit lonely A mother figure is needed I suggest "Thaibeachlovers',he was a former nurse 20k would be reasonable

Well what about you guys who live in Philippines, Cambodia, Vietnam etc are the street dogs controlled there ?
