Interesting. Were you taking 10mg or 20mg?  I've been on 10mg for 5 years without any side-effects.

It was 20mg.

Like Sheryl said, not all people suffer from the water retention side effect..........Only special people, like me 555

Madiplot gave me water retention.

My legs and feet swelled up  significantly.

The doctor adjusted my meds and everything returned to normal.

This being Thailand, that's a good way to land yourself a defamation suit.

 

Better to complain to a) Mazda corporate office in BKK and if not luck then b) Office of Consumer Protection Board.

 

Complaints to a) need to be made in writing and dated. 

My wife and I had a problem with a truck we had bought. The issue couldn't be resolved between us and the dealer. We then contacted the makers head office in Bangkok and a meeting was set up between us, head office and the dealer. Still no agreement.

After this we went to the Consumer Protection Board at Chaeng Watanna. Again, a meeting was set up between us and the dealer, with OCPB mediating. The dealer still didn't budge on the issue and left the meeting. The officer at OCPB suggested that we take the dealer to court and helped my wife to put our case together.

On the day of the court case the dealer upped their offer to an additional 5 years free servicing including parts and labour (Worth 24,000 baht.....We were claiming 20,000), and VIP discount on any other work that needs carrying out over the 5 year period.

Stick to your guns if you aren't happy. The OCPB are very sympathetic to consumer complaints.

We've had the truck serviced twice at the dealership since the problem was resolved, and receive good service from them.

Someone tells me that the Beer Garden Soi 7 meets the wrecking ball in July.

Yes. I heard that too from a friend who works there. It's become a shadow of its former self.

Black numbers against black wood? Won't that make it difficult to read?

How many coffees did you have a day before?

For the past 5 years I've been drinking 1 cup when I get to my office and another at lunchtime. I've never been a really big coffee drinker. I prefer a cup of PG tips (Tea).

I have hypertension and arrhythmia, which are monitored and kept under control by my doctor.

I've now decided to cut out drinking coffee. I only have 2-3 cups a day. One in the morning and one after lunch.

I'd like to replace the coffee with some kind of herbal tea. I've heard that chamomile tea might be a good choice. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

I wish the guard a speedy recovery, and hope his family are well supported by the thug's father until he's fit again.

Hi.

Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced tailor in Bangkok who could make me a couple of dress shirts for work?

I'm around a 3XL-4XL- Euro size.

I've never had shirts made before, so I have no idea about prices.

Any suggestions (Apart from "Lose some weight you fat b@$%&d") would be most welcome.

Try using some of the memory foam tips. Squash them before putting them in your ear, then they expand to your ear shape and size.

Failing that, as flexomike suggested......supaglue ????

A group of 40 had arrived on Spring Airlines to Don Muang airport while 90 independent travellers were welcomed too.

So TAT are wetting themselves over the arrival of 130 Chinese travellers. Better warn the street vendors about this huge influx of big spenders.

My wife and I are in the same predicament with her 26 yr old son. No state help available as far as we know.

I managed to get both the Yellow book and the Pink card after a lot of messing about. The 1st officer my wife and I spoke to said it couldn't be done (Code for 'I don't know how to do it').

After that, we managed to speak to a female officer who was very helpful and managed to eventually supply the book and the card.

One strange thing I had to supply was, an official Thai translation of my parent's names.

I'm 65 hahaha.

With all the problems the OP is having, I'd contact an agent and let them sort it out.

My problems have all been with Lex Express.

I too have had the problem "We tried to deliver' etc etc, or NOT calling to say they are coming.

I always pay COD and in the last month I've had 2 deliveries that want me to pay an extra 50 baht, on top of the invoice total. Next time it happens, I'll refuse it. I find it odd that on both occasions it was for 50 baht.

There's no price printed on the barcode sticker. The price is written in marker pen on the side of the box.

That was unwise.

Okay Jingthing. Maybe I'll try again. But if it still doesn't 'Float my boat'..............I'll hunt you down 555????????

I got through season 1. But gave up after 1 episode of season 2.

The clue is in the header........Sukhumvit, Soi 3.

If you're ever up in Bangkok, You can get 4x Sidegra 50mg for 120B from the pharmacy at Foodland, soi 5, Nana.

Will follow up on your comments on how to prevent it but first priority is the closing off of the area where the car is parked so that we can put the preventive measures in place and NOT harm our dog, but that could still take a while unfortunately.

If you use the deterrent spray there's no need to close off any areas to protect pets.

When I was a kid, bars had 2 entrances - Men Only and Ladies and Escorts.

Bar was separated so that the men did not have to sit with the women if they so choose.

No radio, no TV - just sit, smoke, and drink.

And play crib, dominoes or bar billiards

I had the same problem. I used a 'Rat Spray' available on Lazada. Just spray it around the engine bay, Concentrating on the rubber/electrical parts. I haven't had any more problems.

I think the reason rats are attracted to the plastic and rubber items is because soy bean is used in their manufacture.
