  1. It has been in the news since 1995, if not sooner. I tend to pay attention to health issues, news & info. UP2U of course With that, you may want to get one of the 'health check ups',,. I also do that every year or so. Full check up, not your heart still beats and you lungs work. Wasted money so far, but nice to know what's going on, and catching anything early usually has better results. People take better care of their vehicles than their bodies. Again ... UP2U
  2. note to self: read rules again
  3. No surprise there, as it seems the whole internet has be scrubbed to fit 'their' agenda. Who ever controls the info ... simply controls.
  4. I'm lucky, fortunately, as my body seems to tolerate everything rather well. Been self medicating for decades (not recommend unless lots of research), and only had one oops. Miscalculated the half life of an antibiotic, when switching (both penicillin based), and you really don't want to do that. That was really uncomfortable for a couple days. Knock on wood, besides that little oops. Kidneys & liver still function as expected.
  5. Lot of the stuff sold here isn't prewashed before made. First times buying here, took a while to find a couple brands (pants) that didn't shrink up after a few washes.

    Cheap barbers

    Doesn't take a whole lot of talent to cut hair, as I, untrained, use to cut hair of friends. That they started wearing hats was a bit strange ????
  7. I go with 'I'm driving' ... ... not that I would ever touch any homemade whisky. Could result in blindness or death ????
  8. If never having chickenpox, then you certainly don't/didn't need the vaccine. If that's the one you are referring to. Also don't bother with any of the vaccines since early childhood, and don't seem to get any of the symptoms coming with those illnesses. Rarely got a flu, and if covid, one day runny nose, as symptom of last variant or so. Apparently a decent immune system. Tetanus, but that's way over due for booster.
  9. Can't say I quit or ever will, as do enjoy it occasionally. But in complete control of it, actually, past 15 yrs rarely open a 2nd (490ml). That's only once or twice a month, and usually revolves around what I'm eating, not social setting. I stopped buying slabs of beer, as simply takes too long to drink, and don't like drinking any beer over 6 months old. Getting pass social/peer pressure can be a challenge, but wasn't for me. I have no problem sipping water as others indulge. I would question anyone's friendship, who persisted to pressure me other wise. Give me a strange look, ask 'who are you, and what did you do with LA ?', but don't pester me to get drunk. Again, never had problem with them type of folks. In the lounges, sit facing away from the alcohol ... I have hard time turning down free crap also, especially if I like it ????
  10. Plugged in this AM, @ 38% after yesterday's total driving to Hua Hin & abouts. Using solar, and that will take about 13 hrs to top up, so 2 days. Not an issue for us, as have E-MB to use, which I do anyway, usually for my daily park/surfside cruises. Could always just plug into the grid, using the free, installed wall charger/cable that came with the MG. That PEA rate for us is about ฿3.5kWh, since we don't use much, if at all. Would only take 4 hrs. If in hurry, 3 CS within 5 kms of us, if wanting to top up in <1 hr @ ฿7.5 kWh.
  11. Treating the symptom, instead of the cause of his heartbreak, didn't solve anything. ... oops
  12. Adults needing advise how to buy clothes ... hmm If off the rack doesn't work for you, it doesn't for me, though TBH, I don't really care, as hate tight fitting clothes. Standing 175cm/5'9", w/18 neck and 46-48 chest/shoulders/jacket size, every off the rack shirt, thinks my waist should be 50+ and my arms another half meter longer ???? With that .... find a good tailor, as they don't cost much more, if at all, than a quality shirt off the rack. I use to order pants on line, same scenario, short legs, me, but they hemmed them up for free, and why I stuck with 2 vendors for a long time (USA). I actually bought a sewing machine, to do alterations myself. Now the wife makes all my clothes ???? Problem solved ????
  13. Mine will do 90, I've had up to 87 kph, and will go just as far, which I have no desire to be on a scooter that long. Please let me know how eco friendly petrol production/transport/using is ? Such a silly comparison. Energized with solar ... ???? My ebke will do 40+kph, and go way further than I need or want to, 50 kms so far, with plenty of reserve. Although I'm thinking your ebike serves it's purpose perfectly, but feel free to cry about it. Or didn't you buy it for some other reason, and or not read the specs.
  14. Yes, and do learn the 'signs' of early detection, on the skin .... a rash. May progress much like sunburn, with small moist bubble, which you want to start taking one of these, acyclovir, famciclovir, or valacyclovir, ASAP, as may lessen any long term symptoms. That's a very small window (3days) to start above treatment, in hopes of lessening symptoms, especially long term. Luckily, here/TH, they are available OTC & inexpensive. Hopefully, unlike myself, start before the bubbles appear. Mine was on my back, mid way, and affected a nerve coming around to my chest. If it kicks in, you'll think you are having a heart attack. 14 yrs later, and I still get a little tinge of discomfort. But for about 5 yrs or more, it was very uncomfortable when it flared up. I tried a sh!tload of drugs, and none really did anything. Some of those had some nasty warnings, as being drugs for schizos ???? made just for me, and still didn't help. Powerful stuff, so don't self medicate, unless you have a lot, a lot, a lot of experience doing so.
  15. Did you just call us all 'retarded' ... ???? Taxi drivers ... are they all immigrants ? Sorry, that was racist, I'll get my flip flops ....
  16. Until someone lets us know, and I'm sure they will, when the; MGs Atto 3s Ora Good Cats and Netas start spontaneously combusting, I won't be losing any sleep either.
  17. Can't remember last time I had a radio on, at least 23 years. Never at home, and when in the car, that's my quiet time, or I'm playing music I select. Never force fed.
  18. No need to wonder why I avoid non Thais ????
  19. What's man need in life to be happy ? ... GF 1 meter tall w/flat head to set his beer on ???? Flight attendant told me that joke ???? ... nuff said
  20. Popped up to Hua Hin today 183.6 kms round trip MG ZS EV (2022) 91.8 X 2 (round trip) = 183.6 kms Our cost, using excess Solar -0- PEA @ ฿4.25 kWh = <฿0.61 per km EV cost 183.6 kms = ฿112 MG ZS ICE (2020) 14kms/L PTT 91 @ ฿39.54/L = ฿2.82 per km ICEV cost 183.6 kms = ฿518 Long boring version
  21. Real life driving ... Muang, PKK - Hua Hin - PKK MG ZS EV 2022 - WLTP range rating 320 kms per full charge (test speed - 47 kph) Real life, mixed highway driving - 323 kms Total (one way) 91.8 kms (using AC & cruise control) 3 kms <50kph 65 kms - 90 kph 23.8 kms - 70-80 kph While there, dog sat in car for 2 hr 14 mins Using 4 % approx. 15 kms worth While car on 'full power' 91.8 X 2 (round trip) = 183.6 kms Our cost, using excess Solar -0- PEA @ ฿4.25 kWh = <฿0.61 per km EV cost 183.6 kms = ฿112 MG ZS ICE (2020) 14kms/L PTT 91 @ ฿39.54/L = ฿2.82 per km ICEV cost 183.6 kms = ฿518
  22. I wouldn't think so, as immunity/antibodies long forgot how to fight. Hence the new exposure thought. Bit of a booster. Help, maybe, hurt, no.
  23. Then demand would surely dictate stocking such products, and expected. When they start discarding more than their profit margin ... oh well. I saw this happen in Udon Thani before Villa Market arrived. Chains took on the suggestion of stocking western products, then got rid of most them, as not profitable to bother with. Our Makro here at Muang, PKK doesn't have nearly the amount of western brands as the one in Hua Hin, and quite understandable. I'm actually surprised they keep as much dairy & cheeses in stock as they do.
