    Bought GBP at branch so the amount arriving was the amount sent. 1150 baht fees. Can't remember the exchange rate at Bangkok Bank whatever the rate was last Tuesday.

    Good luck with the petition against what the gov sees as more tourist $'s! As much chance as seeing the upcoming smog season being addressed by government. I do see the need for two more committees though!

    I have UC which was severe - Last one of 3 I had was about 5 years ago at Rajevej Hospital in Chiang Mai, It was as in-patient ( one night) because of underlying conditions. Total cost was 23,000 baht but as in-patient insurance paid 21,000 baht. Due for another one next year so will have to see how much more!

    Thaksin and his sister almost got it going in 2006 (Sept coup killed it) with the backing of a Macau syndicate. Looks like that the old players are all back in the game? It's going to happen sooner rather than later.

    We have a new government and I am sure that the smog will be a top priority and they will have the problem resolved by the end of ---!

    In about four weeks Chiang Mai will start to be inundated with golfers from Korea and Japan and that will carry on through to end of February. Some will be paying over 6,000 baht for a round including caddy fee and cart at the more expensive courses. But most courses from expensive to inexpensive will be full. That is a good start for the high season?

    "The most common Ozempic side effects are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain and constipation. Serious Ozempic side effects include allergic reactions, changes in vision and pancreatitis. Ozempic has an FDA boxed warning for the risk of thyroid C-cell tumors." And apparently these are just some of the side effects. No other ailments but want to lose weight? Eat less, exercise more perhaps?

    Nope, but just had 3 fillings done at Klaimor Hospital Dental. Took me a while do get up the courage as like many a visit to the dentist is just about the bottom of the list of things I like to do. All in all, not as horrific an experience as I anticipated and not overly expensive at 2500 baht for the 3 fillings. Won't be rushing back but will probably go there again if the need arises.

    I suppose he could be asking for compensation from Putin & Xi for the Thai's killed and injured in Israel as it is highly likely they would have had a hand in it along with Iran etc?

    Not to NZ, but to other countries so I guess the procedure is the same. Transferring from Thai baht account? If so you will need an "Application For Outward Remittance" and the baht will be changed to home currency. Charges can be here or to your NZ bank, usually 4-5 working days.

    Ban Mha Ka Maew Animal Hospital Address: 255 10-12 Mahidol Rd, Pa Daet Sub-district, Mueang Chiang Mai District, Chiang Mai 50100 053 205 155 We are looking after a Cockatoo and were told by the Dr here that they can deal with bird problems. Have not had to use them yet but worth a call. Used them for dogs for 20 plus years.

    Have had a couple of our old friends cremated here in Chiang Mai. Based on size, last year a Shi Tzu 600 baht, few years back German shepherd 1,000 baht. Collected the ashes the following day provided with a red bag or you can provide your own urn/box.

    I suppose they could consider giving some sort of benefits to long termers with extensions etc? No problem for me and er indoors, we have had a 21 year extension of stay. Just had to renew it 21 times!
