    I am scheduled to go to the police station in a few days. What's likely to happen here ? Should i seek legal advice ?

    You mentioned an ambulance turned up. But never the police. Seems to be a lot missing.

    Not true. Lived and worked there - most quite and peaceful area.

    It is an old area of Bangkok that is nice and safe with parts running along the river, but I would not call it "quiet" and peaceful.

  3. This is not playing out well. Saw this.

    Since there is no “Commitment Law” in Thailand, involuntary admissions are usually possible by common agreements between psychiatrists and relatives of the patients. Sometimes patients are brought to the hospitals by the police.

    And, it's not rundown and dirty. We stayed at Holiday Ao Nang, super nice hotel.

    We stayed in the Avani, with probably the best infinity pool I have seen. But the overall vibe of the place did not impress me at all. As I said I very much enjoyed Krabi town, the hot springs and the crystal lagoon. Ao Nang simply did not impress at all. Was also disappointed in Raillay which was so overbuilt since the last time there 17 years ago.

    I think the family have every reason to be concerned, particularly as his disappearance and lack of contact is out of character. Many foreigners go with girls/ladyboys who drug and rob them. Many of them are too thick to get the dosage right, and the poor mark ends up dead. I have a feeling this is one trip to Thailand that won’t have a happy ending.

    There was a post 3 hours before this saying he had been found. What a bunch of BS you posted though. What you post of has happened, but not Many/many as  you are trying to say.

  6. For a slice of old time Bangkok go to Suda Restaurant soi 14. Been there for over 40 years, they own the building so costs are kept low. The area around it has been spruced up with some nicer restaurants but Suda's is still the same. Good Thai food at a fair price served by locals. Mostly outside seating but they do have and air conditioned dining area. Its located just about 100 meters into the soi.

    OP, thanks for the update.

    Personally if dealing with CW for annual extensions I would change banks to one that has branch in Building B 

    I have had the account 34 years so no wont change it. My normal branch can do it easily now so just make my appointment for 10:30 am and all is good. Finally have the documents down so its easy. They were impressed to have had the same account for so long.

    bob.

    Bob we live in different worlds. You have posted here moaning about drunks peeing on your gate, and being loud. Where  live I have never experienced that once. So we see things differently to say the least.

  9. Ao Nang did not impress me at all. Just a Thai beach town full of travellers and cheap restaurants that are basically all alike. Hard to find a simple Thai restaurant.  If it was Krabi town a solid yes, but Ao nang is run down and simply dirty.

    Yep ... and 7-11 will do in a pinch.   Partial to the chocolate cones varieties ...

    Agreed especially with weather like we have been having. This one the Dark Chocolate Brownie is really nice, but hard to find.
