    Allergies

    What I am about to say may make you laugh. I went to the doctor because I had a pain all down my left hand side and irritation of the eyes. After a few tests it appears I had an allergy to rain which disturbs the pollen. A dose of tablets did the trick never have had it again
  3. You can please some people some of the time but not all people all of the time
  4. Songkran is everywhere in Thailand. Pattaya is probably the most craziest, in my city where it is not touristy they do not have water guns and normally only lasts 3 days
  5. Had both my eyes done two years ago (one week apart). Surgeon told me different quality of lenses, hence different prices, go for standard lens, you may still need reading glasses with bifocals 1) Painless 2) Drops in eyes, every 10-15 mins for one hour before op 3) Shield on eye for 24 hours post surgery. On eye at night time for one month 4) Drops in eye post surgery through out the day for one month 5) After one month can do everything just as before Hope that helps
  6. Probably just two more foreigners leaving their brains at their country of origin
  7. I think it goes both ways, men are also fed up of women taking them for mugs, working their guts out in a job they do not want to do but they do it for the family and low and behold she runs off with someone else!! (her boss/younger model/richer) JMO
  8. Been visiting/living in Thailand for 34 years never ever heard this before?? I personally would never ever live in tourist areas of Thailand, visit for a few days is fine
  9. My girlfriend is 32 years younger than me, we have been together for over a year. One of my friends met her for the first time last week and he remarked that we never stop talking to each other and never once did he see us use our smartphone in each others company. My girlfriend never asks for money, does not where jewellery, very little makeup and scolds me if I book a too posh hotel (she says to me I am low-so girl I do not like hi-so hotel) My advice think yourself lucky and enjoy
  10. Give them a stretch in Bangkok Hilton, then see how tough they are
  11. I had mine done in Chaing Mai by supposedly the best lady doctor in the city. I think it was roughly 40,000 baht each eye, she told me I could get cheaper but not all lenses are the same. One week between each eye
  12. My doctor recommended that I had done when blood was slightly high. He arranged everything
  13. I had mine done at the General Hospital in Loei. In and out in half a day, price was under 9,000 baht
  14. I watch mine on TV screen
  15. I think they recommend everyone have it done when you turn 50 regardless of condition. I had it done in Thailand 9 months ago, painless procedure.
  16. Best way to get to know a city is to cycle or walk around it
  17. I cycle around my small city every day, 🛒, pay bills, eating out, in an evening sometimes calling for a beer
  18. 33 km every day is pretty normal, I used to do about 20 km, I average about 20 km per hour
  19. So is driving a car/motorcycle intoxicated and getting a motorbike taxi home
  20. Where I live at 23-00, there is virtually no one on the roads at this time
  21. Depends how many lights he had. I ride my bicycle with 1 light at the front, two at the back and I also wear a yellow fluorescent jacket
  22. I personally think we are as safe as anywhere in the world if not safer
  23. Do you know what the tax is on these at the moment?
