    The fella who refurbished 4 bars in Soi 7 is English not Thai not unless a Thai is fronting him ?

    I can’t see the logic of opening a bar complex at this time of year, ok they might have a good few days for Songkran but that’s only the Expat tourists who will be spending in the bars.

    I would like to see the business plans of the new bar owners, there are more bars than ever but fewer customers, bound to be some ‘casualties’ along the way. From the Myth Night Complex to Soi Bukhao there must be 70/80 small individual bars, the old Tesco Lotus is now a beer bar complex.

    I was awake with a nurse standing by with a gas and air mask, I had a few gulps when the probe ‘hit’ something tender in my intestine. There is a risk if the probe pierces the intestines, I had an IV needle in my right arm in the event the probe punctured my intestine and I required a blood transfusion.

    They don’t have to put you to sleep, I had one in the U.K., you have a choice, sleep or gas and air, I chose the gas and air, I only used it once during the procedure.

    For some reason not meant toilets in Shopping Malls have bum guns ?

    Pattaya Klang the same but where is all the traffic going to heading down to Beach Road, these can’t be tourists but day trippers. I tried to get a Baht Bus on Pattaya Tai yesterday, there wasn’t any, they used to park up at the top of Pattaya Tai but yesterday there wasn’t any, a long walk to Friendship and not one passed me in either direction ?

    Which Bangkok Hospital is this, not the ones in Pattaya nor Jomtien.

    I meant say they don’t, I had cataracts done at Bangkok Jomtien, I had to go to an independent optometrist to get prescription glasses.
  11. Jumbo1968
    Do they employ Optometrists, Bangkok Pattaya nor Bangkok Jomtien do.
  12. Jumbo1968
    Are you from Greece ?
  13. Jumbo1968
    Euro Optics in Royal Garden Plaza the lady speaks very good English, she is an optometrist.
  14. Jumbo1968
    I had my cateacts a few months back at Bangkok Jomtien, neither Pattaya Bangkok or Jomtien do eye tests, I had to go to an optometrist.

    It’s a she not a he,

    I will let you work it out, if you have used an agent before without having the funds in the bank.

    One minute they don’t allow the sale of alcohol to be sold between 2 & 5 because it might cause problems then they reduce the price of alcohol ?

    If the airlines can fill the flights at the current prices they are not going to reduce them, they are making up for the losses during Covid.Pre Covid my average return flight from Newcastle in the U.K. was around £500, now it can be much as double that.

    A colleague went to do his extension at Jomtien last week, correct paperwork more than enough funds in the bank for the required time. IO looked at his bank book picked an ‘anomaly’ out in it and said can’t do it, you used an agent the last time, go back to agent.

    My Krungsri Bank Account was locked as I hadn’t made any transactions in 12 months, there was ฿5000 in it. They told me if there was no transactions in 2 years the account would be closed and the money would be passed onto the Thai government.

    I attend Bangkok Pattaya and Bangkok Jomtien for my glaucoma, I also had my cataracts done at Jomtien. I enquired about an eye test for glasses after my cataract op, nope neither of them employ optometrists which I thought very strange ?
  22. Jumbo1968
    Like anywhere Opticians make their money on the frames, Specsavers Iin the U.K. are cheaper, they employ Optometrists who can do a health check on your eyes.

    One outside my house I would like to know how to get scrapped unfortunately it doesn’t belong to me,
  24. Jumbo1968
    The shop you are talking about give you a very basic eye test, I don’t believe they employ Optometrists, 2 in Pattaya do, Euro Optics and Pattaya Optical, there is another called Better Vision not sure if they employ an Optometrist.

    How legal are the Wills you write yourself, in Thailand, do they have to be signed/witnessed by a Thai or a foreigner ? I was told the Amphur Office won’t authorise them anymore ?
