  1. When did I decide? I’m deciding now. For the same reason I almost decided to retire a few years ago. The long commute. Over an hour each way from my Manhattan apartment to the college in the country. That day before Thanksgiving a few years ago, a sudden ice storm turned the evening commute into a six-hour horror. This time it’s the realization that I cannot drive safely at night. Then and now, my savings will keep me comfortable—unless my wife’s Alzheimer’s lasts more than another ten years. But this time I’m over 80. And my loving and gorgeous Thai GF is almost 40. So I will split my time and stop worrying about living till 140.
  2. Not entirely true. If my GF can't fly to Phuket from Bangkok, I can't fly from NY.
  3. I did not choose the font or enlarge or bold it, and I was asking a question, prompted by a genuine concern based on published images of empty shelves and my GF's experiences. I posted the locality of her experiences and asked if it was more widespread. I found out that there was hoarding and transport delays due to covid, but no worrying widespread shortages. That's good news.
  4. My GF says her local Tesco in Nakhon Pathom was out of noodles. And rice was low. Is this an isolated occurrence? We saw pictures of empty shelves a few weeks ago. And I understand some medicines like Tylenol are unattainable. What is your experience?
