5 minutes ago, Been there done that said:FEAR ! This is what the cultural system in this country is built on.
I think so too.
My wife is fearful of anyone wearing what looks a uniform. That could be a doctor, a nurse. bank teller, government worker or even a girl behind the local mobile shop.
Only yesterday at Frienship bridge as I was reluctently handing over my 500Bhat for 8 hours excess stay. "Tell him why we never came yesterday." The reason we were one day late was because she was sick. "She wouldn't say." I wasn't expecting anything other than the fine but I just wanted her to say something in my defence.

The Spurs fans are revolting. They are showing their sadness by not posting. So early in the season to be down in the dumps.
Anyway I've got good news for you. Spurs will not get beaten this w/e. Score at Everton 1-1.
Everton will be a tough nut to crack at home. A point is OK.

Go to the doctor
You should get a pill and powder
Antifungal pill to help fight from the inside and medical strength for the outside.
There ares more than enough natural cures on this thread. Like sun light, tiger balm, the round one and tea tree, neem and witch hazel and alchol,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
I would not shave the affected areas. Do more harm than good. Stay well away from the Thai Kwacks; unless of course they have a dishy bit at reception.

Ody dude. Bang on the money there.
Before Milly came along the wife spent 6 months in UK. I had a business selling wine and that meant a 5 o'clock get up. Loading up from the warehouse at 7 and out delivering before 9. Sometimes I didn't get back home (stayed with eldest daughter) until 8. This was just with the 'rare' Sunday off. The moaning was so bad one day I drove back to where we were staying and dumped her off.
Now this was serious money. I would earn 2-50 pounds per case of wine and I would take out a minimum of 80. One day took out 220!! I would tell her it was for "us". Wasted words!Sometimes I remind her about those days and just how hard it was. She says she can't remember working so hard. Admittedly she only had to sit next to me and keep me company.

She expected him to pay the next month's rent and restock the shop again - as all the takings had been spent!
Yes G
. I can concur all right.
I paid 10k baht deposit for a small wagon that was going to be used for the BIL's fruit selling business. He, and his wife, lived next to the railway in a tin shed in Udon Thani (UT) with no water or lecky. I thought they could do with a break. I also gave then 10k for them to get started and went with them to stock up first time. For 3k they stocked well up and went off to sell. A week later the BIL was in the village (90k from UT). The wife approached; "Piap needs more money." What happened to the profit from the sales? Did they not replenish stocks? I just couldn't get a straight answer to any question.
That was 9 years ago and although they did graduate from the tin shack they are now seperated and he is back with the mother 2 doors away from us. Bloody nightmare!!!
As we are all finding; similar tales/stories.

So you don't wipe you arse either, or brush you teeth?
Nature is not hygienic. Look at the street dogs... they never have a soap wash.. all natural.. and they STINK. You want to smell like that... please stay away from the general public.
I use water to wash my backside; probably the same as you do. As for brushing my teeth; I do accasionally. I use my own mouthwash and have a dental clean regularly.
Nature is far more hygenic than man! Street dogs have been domesticated from wild dogs or wolves. they are not equipted for the modern life without a human to care for them. That's why they struggle.
Vicious and cruel nature can be but it's human intervention and descruction that makes it look dirty.
As for sweaty armpits; go read a couple of my posts and you will read that I advocate wshing regulary. Hair doesn't make you smell. All those NK marching ladies all have underarm hair; lovely!!

But you are no ladyboy.. you don't use any soap or detergents to clean your body... you like to be natural... and smell like a real natural caveman.
Let the skin behave as nature intended. Let the hair grow where it should for both Ladies and men.
The adds are trying to trying to get all the men Nancified. And the ladies smelling like rose gardens.
Man should smell like man; lady smell like lady. Not man smell like ice-cream and lady smell like roses. Whenever I see that TV add; Niv--a, It's up to you, it makes me want to throw up.

You washed without any kind of soap?
The body, and the skin particularty, has its own eco-system. If you are dirty or sweaty wash with just tepid clean water. Any 'soap' I use I make myself with natural stuff.
Once the body is in a netrual state (balance) - in other words it is making sure the epidermis is being looked after by the eco-system and the body organs are allowing nutrients to get to the three layers of skin - it is more difficult for a fungas (for instance) to get started.
As for all these soaps, and perfumes for men, and shaving; there are companies that would like to have a world of ladyboys.

You wash every couple of days? British by any chance?
Shower every night with just water. Might use soap every two or three days. Same with teeth.
English; East London.

thanks doc….btw fungi forms under the skin and no amount of alcohol can penetrate the epidermis.
True enough!
Some prob's are due to the epidermis not doing its job properly. It's the first line of defence from outside. If the problem has penetrated into the dermis then it is more complex. A lot of washing with this and that is a waste of time. The body is its own defence. Get it in balance and you don't have to keep washing every 5 minutes. Once every couple of days is fine.

If you're near the sea, try swimming every day. Most fungal infections are killed by salt water.
If you are not near the sea try sitting in a bucket/bowl of salt water.
My brother swears by Marmite; or Vegemite! Not too sure on that one. I'll ask him and re-post.
Is there a pic of this skin prob'?

It'll be an interesting game where both managers will go for it I reckon. Deffo won't be a 0-0 this one
Yes 3-2.

Had one last night in my simulation odds not real cash you understand but if it was it was £0.79 at 34000/1 just a bit of maths like you know what I mean. Course it never came off but I like a bit of the unexpected. Russian leagues great for a bit of 8th minute drama on the long ones. This one I see a lot of goals gotta be 7 in this both teams can't defend for sugar.
Me too Rc. I've had a few up in the past but not this season yet!! Unlucky last week 9 up from 11 for 800 2 1.
The week before I came to Thailand for the very first time I came up on a 3k 2 1 acc.
Shame it's only make-out stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We must chat sometime.

City, Liverpool and Chelsea have all clubbed together to hire a private jet to bring home our Brazilian players. Jesus, Ederson, Ferdandinho, Coutinho, Firmino and Willian will all jump on the private jet straight after the match against Colombia tonight.
Well we will keep 'em crossed that they all get back unscathed.

I guarantee this is a fail safe cure and it works really quick. I had athletes foot under my little toe for years on and off... and tried dozens of creams and powders. I am a very clean person and did not even wear socks and shoes often.. so it was strange I could not get rid of it. Sometimes it was really painful and split the skin deep and bled. Eventually it spread to my crotch area and was very itchy. I tried creams but it make it worse.. as it kept it moist, or sometimes it got better, but not 100 percent and then it came back weeks later. I researched and found the rubbing alcohol thing.. was very sceptical, but I was amazed how quickly it worked and I now have no fungus or itching anywhere.. even my little toe.
I would try the rubbing alcohol first. In the West Indies this is just about all they use for skin complaints. They use a form of rum,,,,, bayrum,, is it?! Give this a go and let us know how it is doing. Just keep away from those Thai Kwacks.
Just a thought; what about Low khow? Water it down a little I reckon.

Don't buy a tube of anything lad. Do the basics (look after yourself) and use the natural stuff that has served people in hot climates for hundreds of years.

You might be nearer than you think; they are everywhere.

Just a couple of points.
Often regular skin disorders are brought upon by a liver malfunction. Pay closer attention to your diet; both solid and liquid.
Clothing. Wear thin. natural-fibre, loose fitting, underclothes. Check also that some powder, or similar, in the washing cycle is not an irritant to you.
Now as for getting shot and keeping clear; a couple of these things have been mentioned and they are good fayre.
Only use warm water,
do not 'scrub' the area,
don't use soap,
air dry.
Try (neem) sadao. Different parts of the tree are good for different things. Go to a tree and pick some bright green leaves. Soak them in water overnight and then crush (masicate) the leaves into the water. A couple of hours later the concoction is ready. Get an old cotton - but clean - T-shirt and soak the neem juice into it. Place the cloth onto the affected area. Also try the fruit from the neem tree. I have litres of it in the kitchen as a natural cleaner (bleach substitute)
Once the area has visibly improved use (witch hazel) leeladadee, (thai แม่มดเฮเซล). This is great to dab on before going to sleep. Keep a fan not too far from those affected areas.

Well we've got a busy, challenging bunch of matches coming up this month, with Leicester and Stoke away, Gooners and Man City at home interspersed with CL matches against Qarabag and Atletico and a league cup tie with Forest - all in just 21 days!
Looking to the Leicester game I've been playing the old team selection game in my head and I must say it's harder to fit players in than it's been for a while, but here goes anyway.
First the easy bit, Courtois is a no brainer.
With so many players away on international duty I think most of us would rule out debuts for Zappacosta and even Drinkwater. I can't see beyond the usual suspects of Moses and Alonso in the wing back positions. In the centre of defence things start to get much more complicated, I like the look of Rudiger, Christensen needs playing time and IMO his development should be a priority and would not be at the expense of winning pots. Dave and Luiz are both solid. Fortunately(!) captain Cahill is still banned, so for me it's a toss up between Rudiger and Christensen to play with Dave and Luiz. Leicester away is not easy, perhaps the CL game at home would be less challenging so although Rudiger played yesterday while Christensen sat on the bench I'll go for Rudiger at the weekend with Christensen starting in the CL.
Kante has to be the first name on the sheet in midfield, I'll have Fabregas alongside him although that's a very tough call between him and Bakayoko. My front three would be Morata, Willian and Pedro, saving Hazard for the second half.
Who'd want Conte's job? Well at £10m a year I cold suffer it for a few months!
Good assessment in my view!
I would only bring Hazard on if the circustances demanded and not the next game anyway. Have to see how the results go.
This is not the game to start DD. I think he will stiffen up the team in front of Kante later this year. He is not a big lad but no pushover.
