Are you not registered with a govt hospital? the costs are far far cheaper and you get just as good a service ,just slower and not as comfortable as private.

Folks are waiting for a decent vaccine.  the smart ones that a left unvaccinated don't want ass zeneca or Chinese surprise.  If the authorities want the country fully vaccinated the need to stop blocking the legitimate vaccines people want.

Astra Zenica is a very good vaccine ,do your homework ,also if a booster is johnson it is very very good.

My mechanic comes to our house picks up the car and delivers it back ,checks the car free if we go to his garage ,a full service costs about 700 baht ,oil extra ,

we purchased a new water heater the other week ,we beat the instalers back home by about 20 mins ,they fitted it took away the old one ,all free ,in England it would have cost more for the fitting than the heater.

wall (of Jerusalem)

nearly hit one yesterday ,he overtook on the inside then cut straight across me and shot through the lights as they went to red ,so many of them drive like this ,

rovers

whenever i have gone to the UK to see family i have a great time ,in fact we used to live there ,but cant wait to get back home to Thailand ,

just watching bloomberg and there was a report from Africa that although it is more transmissable all those unfacinated addmited to hospital  so far have not been any more ill than usual , make of that what you will

luckily our son went to school in england until he was 12 so speaks English fluently , when he applied for a job running a company 3 years ago ,the Boss who is Asian said that he did not realize our son was "British" ,he got the job.

Another one that has forgotten the thread title and talks about ignorance...???? 

Correct Transam ,its about God,i just cannot understand how with so much knowledge in the world about the origins of man and how planets are formed ,how anyone can believe that God created it and that his son was born on our planet out of all the billions in the univereses.

mind you it must be great to believe that when you die you will see all your loved ones ,.but then as i have been married a few times and have a mother and a stepmother ,it might get a bit crowded at our eventual reunion ..

A selection of two series which are a bit crazy.

 

Preacher.

Some episodes are a bit weak but It's largely compensated by the good ones. Not A new series but one of the few really original.

What we do in the shadows. 

Hillarous! Season 4 just completed.

Try  Do You Believe in God 451 pages so far ,oh i forgot ive used that one already????

The other day we were driving down beach road ,all of a sudden the wife shouted out ,"LOOK TWO TOURISTS' i was amazed as well first two falang tourists (you can always tell) that i had seen for so long .

to those who say that all the retirees will return home ,Why would they most of us here now are married with homes and familly ,if tourists dont return to be honest it means zilch to us .although i do feel so sorry for the workers

Berries are very nutritious but they aren't going to lower your BP...unless in eating them you stop eating something else more fattening and thus lose weight.

 

While fresh berries are expensive here you can het ftozen ones at not too high a price at Tesco.

try almonds ,they lower bp so i have read ,also cheap and good for you.

Have had heart problems for over 40 yrs , take bp tablets my average bp is about 110/60

That was a good series Bert---there are a lot that came out of Manchester --- I like Lesley Sharp (The Blond) she always seems to act like she has just taken a load of Valium. If you can get hold of it--- She done a series before that called "Afterlife"  it was outstanding , 2 series 14 episodes . IMDB gave it an 8 at the time----for once I agreed with them. Wont be easy to find.

The rules have changed in the middle of the game.

 

Now large bean bags that you can sit on do count as chairs.

 

Does anyone actually have one?

 

The 70s are calling and wants to take a picture.

 

That said the question about whether hot dogs in a bun count as sandwiches remains undetermined.

The main problem with a bean bag is if i sat in one ,i wouldnt be able to get out again.lol.
