    San Miguel light, Singha My beer are very low in carbohydrates and calories. Singha beer is also in the lower range compared to others.

    Beer has carbohydrates which are converted into sugar.

    Airasia even charges 250 Baht for payment fee if you pay with their own Air Asia credit card. Additional charges are normal practice here. The first price for the flight is never the final price.

    The only problem is that in a serious case it can cost several millions of Baht and few of us have this amount available in cash.

    I once had a discussion with a lawyer for counterfeit products. He told me that for low priced items it is not worth for the fake producers to offer those. Original melatonin is not that expensive. Of course there might be exceptions but this makes sense.

    I think that it is not longer possible for foreigners. I was refused to purchase it at different stations (I do not have a pink card and was also not asked for it}.

    You can get a prepaid or virtual card or a secured physical card by pledging a deposit. Not perfect but very useful.

    I have no problems in calling landlines with my Skype balance in Teams.

    It is a prepaid Visa card. You have to download the MRT app and register the Visa card (a bit complicated). Within the app you can top up the card by QR Code.

    Sure, if you do it the good and slow way. Bouillion cubes are the easy and faster version for lazy amateur cooks. But yes, otherwise I agree with you.

    Bouillion cubes (Knorr or similar)

    What you need is a dermatologist who has knowledge about skin cancer. Not every dermatologist has this knowledge. Especially because skin cancer is a farang problem Thais do normally not get it. Their skin is better for tropical sun exposure even they avoid the sun.

    Biopsies usually cost around 10,000 Baht.

    You can do a stew instead with meat, potatoes and veggies.

    In my case it was the sun in Thailand. I went to the sea often. It is recommended to have a checkup at least once in a while. The first time I realized the problem too late and when i finally went to have it checked the growth was too large and had to be surgically removed with stitches. I was lucky because the surgeon told me that normally he had to transplant skin from my leg to my face.

    I have a similar problem. At least once a year I let a dermatologist do a checkup. I had several basal carcinomas removed in the surgery department and endless pre-cancerous spots removed with liquid nitrogen (frozen off). Aldara cream works only on small pre-cancerous spots, but sometimes does not have any effect.

    Ok, every person might react differently. I like Vislube because 1 drop in each eye lasts longer than normal ones. I use Vidisic gel before going to bed. Other gels tend to blur my vision too much until into the morning hours.

    Best drops in my experience are Vislube. But unfortunately they not cheap. Prices vary from pharmacy to pharmacy, it is best to compare.

    If you want to wash out eyes there are bottles with sterile water available especially for this purpose.

    Do not use boiled water. The lubricating eye drops in pharmacies have an oily substance, not water. And just pay attention to the 2 different kind of drops, one for contact lenses and one artificial tears product.

    I have a similar problem. It is a dysfunction of the Meibomian glands who normally provide an oily substance to lubricate the eyes. In the nighttime I have to use a gel and in the daytime lubrication drops. Due to missing oily solution all kind of dust particles accumulate in the eyes below the lid and this leads to itching and inflammation. Therefore cleaning of the eyes is recommended, there is a good foam available in pharmacies.

    I mostly see the terrible white bread slices served with English breakfast. Otherwise English breakfast is good.
