Too much for most ordinary Thais who want their kids to do better than they, though.
our son did his junior years in school in Britain ,then here in Thailand at a private school ,they even got him to teach English classes in his final year ,he now runs a company ,every penny we spent on him was worth it

My wife as well as our sons girlfriend has been in the property business, also i have bought and sold many in the UK ,here in Thailand ,ok they may try a higher price if they see a falang ,but as soon as you start the bargaining ,it makes no difference what nationality you are ,if they want to sell the owner will make just as much of a discount for anyone , Also i hate all this nonsense about"well its your wifes house " just because some silly farangs get ripped off it does not mean that the vast majority of us are in happy marriages with sons and daughters,well all my friends are and most like me have been married donkeys years.
anyway ,the seller will sell at the price they are happy with ,and thats it ,

Same as everywhere, simply offer what one is willing to pay. It's Buyer' Market, or should be.
our sons girlfriend sells houses on new estates ,sales have not slowed down ,second hand houses now may be a different matter ,on our estate ,they seem to sell quite quickly and at good prices ,well a good bit more than we paid .

Also watching 1883, a new cowboy series which is very good, also After Life with Ricky Gervais, not for the easily offended, that one though! For those who don't mind subtitles, I enjoyed Marnow Murders, and Beforeigners.
1883 is one of the best series i have seen for ages ,very very good

There used to be the Pattaya eye center behind Big C (old carrefour) Pattaya Kleang on soi Yumae. Dont know if it is still there its been a few years. May be someone else knows better.
I originally went to him 5 years ago as my optician sugested i have a check up ,he told me i needed an immediate cataract operation never mentioned my eye pressure ,anyway i went to Queen Sirakit to check ,was told i had a minor cataract no need to do anything ,but needed drops for eye pressure , as far as i know the guy behind big c is closed down ,bloody good job to , might need a cataract operation soon ,but not a real problem.

i did register there last year for something else but was hard work because most speak thai only. I'll give it another go as it gets lots of recommendations
once you know the system its easy ,and well worth it

I did register at Queen Sirikit many years ago but have never used them. Does it mean sitting for hours to see a doctor though? As when I registered I saw waiting rooms full of people.
its a very nice room ,air con and comfortable ,you will be there an hour or so ,but its well worth it

how much roughly for an eye test? i want them to include glaucoma test. I don't need glasses
900 baht is what i pay ,if you have a special eye test (about once a year) where little objects fly around by lazer its about another 500 baht . when you gat your appointment (its a very nice hospital) you get first your normal eye test as you would in an oppticians ,then you get a pressure test and cataract test by the doctor ,they are both from private hospitals ,one is a miserable old bat (but really knows her job) and the other is a younger doc who is really friendly and speaks English ,so does the old bat but she wont ????
believe me its well worth going there

Ai, not sure I was going to laugh or thank you, but History shows great improvement in civilation of Spain and the region by Islam. But it is up to those who take their time to read the history, and share it, but Im sure nobody or very few will bother or believe you.
pity they didnt carry on ,instead of sinking to the level most of their countrys are now.
