Bangkok Hospital to purge decade-old medical records
Lucky Bones replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
It's important to have a purge. I try for one every day.ππ -
Yes. But sometimes it doesn't matter if you have all your papers etc and have good planning. A I Officer with a bad attitude will always want to exert their self perceived authority. Personally, I have had poor results with online so I make Jomtien part of my quarterly day out.ππ

Why people insult others so easily and so often?
Lucky Bones replied to ravip's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Steven. You are an upstanding man. Well respected amongst community & peers. Don't sell yourself short. Order that extra pack of G & T's. I'm in. Hell, let's go to Cha-Cha house at the barrack gates.ππ -

Hear what you are saying. It's not ironic. I have tried and simply failed at getting my head around the communication (language.) I saw it many a time in Oz. ππ -
Bangkokβs expressway toll fees skyrocket starting today
Lucky Bones replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
Richard, I think the original news item & your comment both hold water. The country has a 5 baht coin. Most things, outside of supermarkets, will move by 5 baht (+/-). When noodles are 40 baht, that is a fair rise. Yesterday=40 baht, today 45 baht. I watched our chicken rice vendor go from 40...45 & now 50. Your perception of skyrocketing is different to mine, which is fair enuff.ππ -
Thailand announces extra holiday to boost Songkran economy
Lucky Bones replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
According to "official stats", daily road deaths actually fall over Songkran. But that is not the picture is portrayed. Believe at your peril (but yes, stay off the roads.) RTP Smoke & mirror every year.ππ -
I'm out of Thailand at the moment. Back in June for annual Jomtien extension. Soi 5 IO sounds like so much fun over the last 9 months. It used to be so easy, walk in walk out. Calling my agent or extending stay.ππ

Interesting thoughts/comments. I originally came here, holidaying with a mate, nearly 20 years back. We both probably thought ourselves "superior" and (without realising) insulted some locals in Pattaya. Cut to today. Me, married & 11 years living here. Wife 6 years younger. Mate still visits his 31 year younger mistress. He still calls Thai's "stupid." I appreciate many are uneducated. I learn't a long time ago there are many people in my village who may be uneducated but they are far from stupid. I'm past insulting others (hopefully.)ππ -

PM Eyeing A-List Performers Amid Taylor Swiftβs Singapore Shows
Lucky Bones replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Tom Jones will be here soon. Another suitcase of thrown womens panties to take home. What? Me jealous? Well...........ππ -
Now 4+ page thread so I haven't read it. I do recall some 13 years ago, having just moved to Thailand. I went to Pattaya (Mercure Hotel?) meeting, registered & got my life-time card. But I looked and saw a room full of Westeners in Thailand. Hell I just left Westeners behind....not for me thanks. So I guess I turned myself off without attending a possibly singlular valuable meeting. Each to our own.ππ
