Rest, ice, compression, elevation. I got relief from golfer's elbow with two sessions of acupuncture, that treatment may not suit everyone. If you are going to take an anti-inflammatory like ibuprofen, short-term only. Longer term causes kidney damage.

No, I'm a Mexican myself ( south of the border, Melbourne ). If you Google "cheap car rentals Sydney" there will be half a dozen websites to choose from. Cars like a Suzuki Swift or Toyota Yaris.

There is something really sexy about a fit female in leotards. I find myself imagining what she would look like without them. Not competing myself, I know my limitations.

I would suggest to the OP losing weight will help with the BP. It makes sense, your heart and circulatory system has less of a burden on it. When I was put on telmisartan 6 years ago, my BP was 180/90. It is now 120/65, and the only medication which I take (co-incidentally for BPH) is 1 mg of Cardura. Perhaps the OP should consider swimming as an alternative to heavy weight training. Less risk of injury.

I moved from Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai two and a half years ago. IMO CR is better. I agree with the OP, CM traffic is ridiculous now. CR has many more attractions. Doi Inthanon, Doi Suthep and San Kamphaeng hot springs - that's about it for CM.

Maybe the words I use will be too big for you.

AFAIK most countries demand 6 months validity on the current passport.

Seems to me you and other posters are making excuses for the inexcusable.

Quote my post in full if you are going to shoot the messenger. By restraint I meant the various holds I can use, not the S&M stuff. Don't bruise yourself jumping to conclusions. It's true alcohol removes inhibitions. Please explain how that also removes responsibility for one's actions.

With the current shortage of new vehicles in Oz, used cars are selling at ridiculous prices. A small rental in Sydney would be about $1000 a month, you are not going to get anything reliable secondhand for $3000.

Stay in a hotel for a couple of days while you look for condos on the spot. Every condo I have been in has a notice board listing apartments for rent, with prices. You also have the advantage of inspecting prior to signing any lease.

You mean there are 1000 people still that stupid? With that much money to blow on a dinner? I've spotted a spelling error, it should be galah dinner. Aussie slang.

Not really, I played along until the posts got nasty.

Perhaps the OP won't get too many takers, any woman would be wondering what happened to the first four.

I am able to put a woman in restraint if necessary without hitting her, I have the training. The situation has never arisen with me, because I treat women with consideration. If any woman made me angry, I would simply walk away. Moral cowardice does not alter with regions.

I read about bruises and blood dripping from her face. I read about her refusing to stay after other women left. If you are saying that excuses what the guy did, it puts you in the same category of low-life.

Attention-seeking.

The world was actually recovering pretty well from COVID until Putin had his brain fart.

In which case I would write it off to experience, and move on. Plenty of other fish in the sea. Comments justifying what to me is inexcusable also pop up too.

I am wondering if the promises of dinner with the great man, golf on one of his properties, or accommodation at one of his resorts will actually be honored. $99 is a lot to pay for a McDonalds burger and a Diet Coke.

It's called confirmation bias, and is a common attribute of anti-vaxxers, climate change deniers, anti-fluoride campaigners and Trump supporters. "Confirmation bias is the tendency to search for, interpret, favor, and recall information in a way that confirms or supports one's prior beliefs or values."

Any man who hits a woman is a moral coward in my book, irrespective of what she does for a living. My guess is he wanted something fairly perverted. I hope the gutless mongrel gets locked up.

When motoring journalists write reviews of any new vehicle, one has to ask whether the lily is being gilded. There are two drivers of favorable comment. The first is the car magazine, which depends on advertising revenue to stay in business. If too many car manufacturers pull their advertisements due to unfavorable comment, they don't. The second driver are the journalists themselves, who don't get to test-drive new models, or go on junkets funded by manufacturers if they tell it like it is. And can even get fired if they are too scathing. There's every incentive to gloss over failings, and none for honesty.

Are you trying for the low-life post of the year? If you need the support of alcohol to get into a woman's panties, it says a lot about you.

IME it is not checked at Chiang Rai Immigration, not for the 3 extensions I have done there.
