    I am sure you will find that most doctors / GPs in Thailand speak a good level of English ,even the clinic doctors speak English and have learned the trade in a country where they must read and write english to pass the course to be a GP or doctor ,so you have found nothing new here in Thailand.

    I read the Op as about a farang doctor practicing in Korat. So Lefty has found something new here in Thailand.

    As far as clinic doctors having English language skills.... many understand some basic English but nowhere near conversational level.

    I'd also question your statement about having learned the trade in a foreign country. A minority I'd suggest.

    But, I could be wrong. It happens sometimes.

  2. Being an ol fart living up in the sticks, I can't offer any suggestions re a suitable venue, sorry.

    If I were looking for a suitable place for the party, I'd probably visit a few clubs & speak with them personally. I reasise time consuming but I think you might get a better rsponse.

    Just what I'd do. Good luck.

  3. Wow, what an attitude. This "pointless activity" generates an uncalculibable amount of revenue world wide. Provides employment for millions. Gives youth in many undeveloped countries a reason to strive & hope, as well of keep them off the street. Can teach players a team attitude, confidence, discipline.

     

    Do you also consider : Formula 1, Athletics, Ballet, Opera, +, +, +  pointless activities ?

     

    Are you involved in any, entertainment activities, hobies, sport recreation ? If we get down to the nitty gritty, all could be classed as "pointless activities" in the overall scheme of things.

    Yes, he will find it helpful as it tells him that reservoirs can be used for recreational purposes, which is what he wanted to know. Is that OK with you?

    Sorry, I don't agree your response is all that helpful. " Despite being tough-asssed Navy SEALS, "  I'm sure any national, government team would be able to train anywhere they wished.

    Recreational sailing & Navy seals training for international competition have little in common.

    So no, not really ok with me. That ok with you ?

    A few years back, the Thai national rowing team (yes, they had one) which consisted of a lightweight four and lightweight sculler, trained on Mabprachan, the main reservoir for Pattaya, before heading off to the world rowing championships.

     

    (Despite being tough-asssed Navy SEALS, they failed to make it past the heats, but never mind, they gave it a go in one of the toughest sports.)

    I'm sure grollies will find this helpful.

    Another boring and completely overrated celeb. He kicked a ball around a piece of dirt. So what?

     

    I'm no round ball fan & not a Beckham fan, BUT, if YOU could kick a ball around a piece of dirt as well as Beckham, I'd suggest you wouldn't be wasting your time making pointless remarks on a public forum. That's what !!!

    " Neat bird I think "  As opposed to an untidy bird. Sorry, couldn't help it.  :post-4641-1156693976:

  8. Slightly off topic, but !

    I have photos of all the stuff we like to keep in the pantry or fridge. If I can't find something in the shop, supermarket, at first glance, I show relevant pic to a shelf stacker. Saves mea lot of time & frustration.

    As someone already said, shops here like to shift stuff around all the time. I think they call it "Falang Frustration"

    If you don't give a tinker's toss then why bother reading and posting.  It obviously caused some consternation otherwise you would not have taken the time to get your point across. 

     

    Give the smart A lying P what he deserves, nothing but an up himself Hollywood clown who thinks that because he is who he is he can do what he likes. :sorry: but follow the rules and if you can't then suffer the consequences.  I just hope the minister has the kahunas  to carry out his threat. :wai:

    Being an open public forum, most of the content is replies & comment, both positive & negative.

    " It obviously caused some consternation otherwise you would not have taken the time to get your point across." Bit like you taking your time to get your point across about my point ?
