  1. Firstly, I don't read the Guardian stuff, secondly I avoid more Brexit stuff too, it is here, we get on with it, same as 1945...................????
  2. You do not hang around with a detached retina, if it starts peeling it is like stripping wallpaper.... In 2001 England I was told at my local hospital I had a detached retina, the doctor said, go home, pack a few things and get to St. Thomas's Hospital, London S.A.P, they are expecting you. I was operated on that late night. So, 2 retina probs operated on at night, one in London, one in LOS, no hanging around.
  3. I was warned that the hospital is a nightmare, they were right, I have never seen so many people in one place being ushered around like sheep. I stayed in a hotel to get to the hozzy early, think 7.30, it was packed then. I saw the Prof at I think 4.30pm...????
  4. A bloke I know (74) paid an agent to get his Thai bird (45) to Oz for a holiday, it was rejected, seems all the agent did was fill out the forms their way. He/they tried again, a few months later, paid again but did it themselves, this time she got the visit visa. Their 'plan' is to get her into Oz to work and do the washing up....
  5. I went to BKK for a retina fix, they were talking 250,000bht, was given information to get it fixed at the gov Queens hospital in Khon Kaen. Which I did. It entails registering at the hospital to get to see the head eye honcho, a professor, nice bloke, perfect English. Took all day, but he operated that very night. I had the eye emptied and filled with gas, under local anaesthetic, not nice, but it worked, though had to spend 2 weeks looking at the floor, day and night. I was in hospital for 4 days, total cost was 66,000bht, a very big cost difference..That was 4 years back.... P.S. He used laser and nitrous oxide to do the repair, he thought one or the other, but had to use both..The N2O was very painful...
  6. In the past, we have had members quoting the same stuff, but nothing has changed....
  7. Some folk live in hotels.................
  8. I think you will find it is.....
  9. You cannot get a '5 year' licence unless you have a long stay visa of some sort, they will keep giving you a 2 year one. No need for hospitals, a quack will be nearby a licencing place for the medical.....
  10. Who was that then, the last poster of the year was a bloke masquerading as a bird.....????

  15. Because you ain't in Canada, you are in the land of A4 paper, rubber stamps, overstaffed offices where confusion reigns........
  16. Really, well don't mention you have anything to do with Thailand, as you will be the towns pedo....????
  17. Near enough, the seed was planted...????
  18. The UK should have the Royal Navy on standby with one of these below. As the rubber things land, they are ushered onto it. Then they are taken back to where they departed and disembarked, the vessel has no need to dock.....Job done...........????
  19. You pay a refundable deposit for the red plates, if they get stolen you lose it..
