    There's a good chance of that. But as said.... previously I have been able to shift dark circles / bags with a few good night's sleep, eating and exercise etc. Since this lockdown they have definately kicked in. 

    Are you exercising ? Eating properly, drinking 3 L of water a day, no tea / coffee/ caffeine after 5 afternoon ? If you have the chance to go to Boots chemist, they sell little masks that you put in the fridge, use them one or two times during the day, morning , before you get up for instance, lay there for 10/15 mins relaxing, they decongest you’re eye bags. Feels great too. Plus a good long walk every day.

    and i could not sleep last night at all. 

    You will need a good long walk every day, early evening , at least an hour.

     maybe  some light exercises , 20 mins a day, ( morning or afternoon. ) You can find easy things on internet. No caffeine after 5. Not too much to drink. Eat early. Try that for a week,  it will sure help. If your body is tired, you will sleep. We are all stressed, even if we think we’re fine. Take care, it’s not forever.

    So much bad information out there. How does bringing your own food endanger anyone? If I eat a sandwich, I will spread a disease, which I do not have to begin with? There is an astonishing degree of insanity happening, and a real zombie apocalypse mentality setting in. 

     

    The social distancing on planes will be an absolute delight. 

    The seats, pull down tables, head rests , arm rests, toilets etc etc in any airplane have been proven to be amongst the dirtiest places you can be, plus the amount of bacteria found, even in the blankets ( I thought they were sort of clean) and the head rests !!! Yuck !!!! Read up on the subject, you won’t like what you read. Airlines know this, so banning food is an obvious choice . This might be hard for Asians in general, as they can’t get on a plane, bus or train without eating, no matter the distance. You even see it in the public buses.

    @lust   A few months back we found a small center of 8 shophouses with a 20-Baht store, seamstress, cheap milk tea cafe, cheap noodle shop etc... inquired with the landlord about the remaining vacant properties, and they asked for 50,000 baht /mo. Theres no way the other shops are paying that let alone making that. No idea what they're basing the valuation on.

    Your face ! 
    send the wife or another Thai friend back alone.

    Thousands of Thais are said to be having pneumonia, I’ve personally never heard of so many outbreaks all over Thailand. Anyone else ?
    Also, when these people die , it is registered as From unidentified cause .

    A little caution certainly, but what about postponing the school reopening to July, when France, hundreds of times more affected than Thailand, announced yesterday that its schools will reopen in one month, on May 11th?

    The schools in France will only open on the 11 th if the situation allows it to. Also, 
    There were a great number of pneumonia cases being reported in January and February.

    There will be no international travel until September from Europe and certainly the USA the way things look. 

  7. It’s a lesson for everyone in these difficult times., Be responsible. Most foreigners did not leave the country when they should have, take responsibility of your actions. Finding yourself in lockdown in a hostel may not be fun, it’s not supposed to be. Social distancing, confinement, everyone has to do their best. I know of tourists who went from Myanmar to Thailand, straight to Suvarnabhumi, queued night and day in turns to get flights home, didn’t sleep for 48 hrs, but then found flights , which they paid for again, and did not complain. Effort . lots of people want everything handed them-on a plate and then complain when it doesn’t go their way. 

  8. I definitely think that handshake and * la bise*,  kissing on left and right cheeks, has made the virus situation worse. Spain , Italy and lots of south Europeans are kissing each other every day, all the time. I live in France, usually walking down the road you’d usually meet half a dozen people who will *faire la bise*.  Being British, I usually try to get out of this as much as I can, sometimes for ex.you go to a party or dinner and you end up having to kiss every bloody person there ! I walk in, put up my hand , and say hi everybody . No wonder that the virus spread so fast in these countries. 

    On the other hand, the scientists say it’s nothing to do with heat or weather conditions, whether there is less or more contagion. What does make a difference is when it’s cold, damp , and generally bad weather ( winter) people cough and sneeze more, and viruses are spread easily. You don’t see much influenza in summer for example.
