  1. I reckon you won't need to have much fantasy to know what to expect. Maybe I'll make plans to go back to Ballybunion? (Ireland)😳
  2. If it's painful consider gout. Also arthritis. Straightening is possible. Operations give you relief but probably not forever. No guarantee. And convalescence could take time. Look for orthopaedic insoles and go barefoot on the beach in soft sand.
  3. A friend of mine was fighting in court for "Justice". Prior his case came to court there was initially a car accident. Not his fault. However he was driving a SUV and the Thai worker a scooter. The police pointed out exactly this: rich farang here, poor worker there. He was asked to pay compensation of 10.000 Baht what he refused. Long story short: At the end he paid 500 Baht fine plus 12.000 Baht for his lawyer. Thai justice.🙏
  4. Well, I can remember. It was 1806 and the French got the jitters. But it took another almost 30 years to abolish slavery. And what about the colonies? They are all independent or still ruled by the superior race? Every country got its own history. Some histories you'll better not remember: However, everybody remembers the German Holocaust if Gaza/Israel is mentioned. It all happened and happens. No need for a statue glorifying the past. I mean Trafalgar.
  5. Why it's claimed for a leadership of the "West"? The West is not the majority in the world but still on the colonial path to rule over all the "non White". It's a sign of arrogance. It's time for America to step down and give up persuing to be hegemon of the world. 🙏
  6. Good mayor. There is NO reason to remember the dark century of colonialism.🙏.
  7. The article gives the answer: age, liver flukes, and alcohol (presumably).
  8. Normally I switch it on before I can use it. Then it runs the whole night at 24 centigrade. 🙏
  9. Only those who have no words and can't articulate themselves need to use their fists. Most belong to the bottom of society or culture only able to solve matters by force and violence. Pathetic.
  10. For the first part I would like to give you an ,,agree" emoji and for the last sentence a "laughing" emoji, though you're right.🙏🙏😂👍
  11. Did you check your BP several times a day/week to get a BP profile? Is it low all day or only mornings or only before/during sleeping?
  12. A morning tea and exercises? You tried this already?
  13. Apart from medication I recommend to avoid Alcohol, meat, sugar. Take a handfull of dried pumpkin seeds daily.
  14. Well, you have to test your TSH/T4 levels probably more often to find the right dosage. But as I read you got some more health issues. Sports/ exercises will help you to lower your BP as well as your weight. My wife got this operation 4 years ago and I had to tackle that problem. It took us more than 18 months to find the right dosage of Thyroxine and the Calcium level. She's on Calcidol also. Since 2.5 years without problems. She is going for gym every second day and eats a lot green veggies.
  15. What actually was removed? Please explain, because there several different ways of "thyroidectomy" (total, semi aso)
  16. Singapore or South Korea or Philippines are more related to Western music. That's why Swift and others wouldn't come to Thailand.
  17. Better than other parts on the other side I reckon?😂
  18. The Gates do it, same as Bezo's Ex-wife. So?
  19. I don't know the circumstances but I presume another farang died because he never used a scooter in his home country and enjoyed the unlimited helmet free freedom on Thailand's roads. Rent a car and you rent more safety. My friend 77 yo, used his motorbike instead of his car and survived a severe accident 2 years ago. Now he's on crutches. Lifelong. For the Brit: RIP
