Bringing this on back from the dead, I didn't get a chance to do it last time and looking to do it asap. Bangkok Pattaya Hospital have just quoted 40-50k plus doctors fees... Madness. Any up to date info from somebody that has had it done on the East Coast (other than BPH) in the last 18 months or so would be most welcome. Thanks.

Ah, that's what he meant, thank you. I'm actually changing extension type from Non O family to Non B (I already have work permit etc) but for one reason or another it's all a bit last minute. Anyway, that 7 days will buy me the time I need in case there are any issues. All good, thanks again.

Apologies if this is a silly question, but at the end of a one year extension to stay (non O Thai family) are you required to leave on the day the extension to stay runs out, or is there a 7 day grace period? I thought you had to be out on the day it expired to avoid overstay, but a visa agent just mentioned that you have a further 7 days - just wondering if that is correct or not? Thanks in advance.

Hi, It seems like the Phoenix Wittaya school has now moved to it's new location on Pattanakarn Road, a few hundred metres up from Tara Pattana School (which I think is the the parent company of the school/group). I have spoken with a parent that has kids there and they seemed happy enough, but was looking for some more feedback about the new campus - pros and cons.. I was planning on putting my son in MIS in April/May 2025, but the new Phoenix Wittaya location is a thousand times better for me and considerably cheaper than MIS - so I want to get as much info on the school in its new location as possible. Many thanks in advance.

I want to have a go at making Prosciutto Cotto and need a 3kg leg of pork that looks roughly like this: I can't see anything like it at Makro and it's way to hectic in there to start trying to explain what I need. Are there any places to buy such a thing in Pattaya? I can order in advance, not expecting to find that off the shelf, so to speak... Thanks in advance.

Makro have organic eggs under their Aro brand and one other brand.

Not yet sorry, first shop will be on the Darkside Pattaya and we will open on Grab before we actually open the shop itself, to judge demand and make sure we have the menu right. That should happen in about 2 weeks from now. The shop will be called The Sandwich Co. - went with simple in the end.... Thanks to everybody for the suggestions.

So my understanding of a butty is a sandwich with hot filling, like chip butty, bacon butty etc. Do you have any others that would fall into the butty category?

My 9 year old wants to grow his hair out, he has some photos of other kids with the same look and is quite specific about what he wants. I'm keen to roll with it as it's his him developing his own style, even if I am not a fan of long hair on men. So I need a hair stylists that can help him shape when he wants, rather than a barber that cuts hair. He speaks both Thailand English so no issues there. Any recommendations? We are on the darkside but anywhere in Patts is fine for this. Thanks in advance.

That is very good name for a company targeting the Thai sandwich market.

The Sandwich Club is good but there is one on Phuket already.

Emporium... The Sandwich Emporium, that is good, thank you.

Yeah, I thought about Serious Sandwiches - it's a good name that.

Thanks Mate - one is planned for there early next year but first is on the Darkside.

Yeah, that's a good one, thanks.

Yeah I like that, thanks. I was thinking of the London Underground Logo as well as it catches the eye of Brits when they see it, I think (it does mine anyway). Not sure about the underground bit though, hard to make that into something relevant unless were going to do more niche stuff - the plan is to do mostly the classics.

Thank you.

Product is Sandwich, operation is Shop. Location and demographic listed in OP.

Get on strict carnivore diet for a couple of three months, you will build muscle naturally with all that protein and libido raises in most people who last a full 3 months.

Bothe good but they need the word Sandwhich in it, Eat Me is also big restaurant in Bangkok.

Hence why I said feel free to suggest your own?

I'm opening one or more sandwich shops in Pattaya and Bangkok - the target demographic will be American, British and Aussie travellers and expats. I'm still in the planning phase although have already acquired the property and most of the equipment, I just need to get the name sorted next week to get things moving (I have a dormant company ready to go, just need to change the name). There are a few names in the poll that I think would work well but would love other ideas - the only thing is that it needs to have the word "Sandwich" in it to help with Grab and Google search. The funnier the better - anything goes. Many thanks in advance.

Think I will have a go at changing my oil and filter on my Honda Accord 2003 V6 3.0L Automatic. She has 110k on the clock (real) - the handbook is 21 years old now so looking for a bit more up to date info on what to use than it can provide. Thanks in advance.

Doing a bit of market research and need some feedback.☺️

San Mig Light is 5g per 336ml. Asahi is 2.8g per 100ml, therefore it's 9.41g per 336ml giving Asahi almost twice as many carbs as San Mig Light. 🙂
