It's the laid-back chilled Thai effect that we all come here for now affecting Gemini...😂. FFS! Just pull back the curtains in the morning and look at that beautiful blue sky and sunshine and think how lucky I am to be here to enjoy another day in Paradise...🌞🌞🌞

If I enter Thailand on a 90 day single entry non O retirement visa and I leave for a few days with a reentry permit, When I return do I get the balance of the 90 days from my original entry date, or from my reentry date please?

Do you not know that when you buy them roadside or in a market they open them for you and even give you a straw to drink the delicious juice inside. 30 to 50 THB. In my view not expensive for such a nutritious drink and food.

I've had very good service from KBank for 20 years now.

I just noticed that you can click on the link and a box to click marked 'open' appears above.

Well count yourself lucky that Udon IO which probably oversaw Nong Khai too, has a friendly helpful ethos which I have also experienced. But my current IO, and other IOs reported on here do not. They are clearly on a power trip making everything as difficult as possible. Also often talking down to you like a child, not with the respect fo older people that most of Asia is renowned for. I am a snowbird staying for 6 months only so now I make alternative visa arrangements and avoid my IO like the plague.

Buy a large pair of scissors.

Age?

No need to bother with copy of the hotel TM30. Your girlfriend can go and do it at her local IO at her leisure as long as she states you just arrived within the last 24 hours. She can tell them you've been staying in Bangkok hotels since you arrived If they ask. I have done this for many years, usually 4 to 6 weeks after arriving in Thailand, for my rented apartment where the landlord then goes at his leisure with the copies of the required documents: signed copy of his ID + signed copy of his house book plus signed copies of my relevant passport pages.

Isn't it cruel to keep these huskies in such a hot climate anyway? In my town we have an a r s e h o l e, sorry hisole family who parade their 2 Huskies up and down the crowded weekend walking street showing them off as a status symbol.

Is this hospital open to Thais outside the area and/or foreigners?

Pigs might fly!

Does It take 60 days for criminal transit? Whatever that is.

FFS! Trainers plus socks in this climate = hot sweaty smelly feet & shoes = athlete's foot & fungal toe nails.

I live in flip flops. I only ever wear shoes and socks on a cold evening in Northeast Thailand.

The same was probably said of Hitler substituting the word terrorist for Jews.

But still no acknowledgment of the ongoing GENOCIDE.

The traditional ear syringing in the UK was quite gentle using warm water for a prolonged period. I needed it often during my childhood and teens as I regularly got problems through swimming and board diving nearly every day. The only time I ever got a problem was the last time when I got an ear infection. I noticed that the equipment was plastic not stainless steel as before. So I suspected that it could not be sterilized as efficiently as the stainless steel equipment was before.

Given their names I presume that her attackers were white.

It has been replaced in the UK by using a mini vacuum cleaner to suck out all the wax. I do not like or trust this procedure as I had this done for the first time many years ago at a Thai military hospital. The doctor caused some pain in my left ear and failed to clear it. So he stopped and had a nurse put 'docusate' liquid in my ear left to soak for 15 minutes. He then tried again and this time cleared my ear. I noticed a little blood when he cleaned the end of the mini vacuum cleaner. I said is that from my ear? And he replied yes. I didn't take it further but I believe he damaged my eardrum because before this was my better ear but after this procedure it became my worst ear for hearing and still is. He should not have tried to clear it without first softening the wax and I believe damaged my ear. In the UK they will still get a nurse to syringe your ear if you insist you don't want this procedure. If you think about what happens if you accidentally touch your clothing or say the curtains when vacuuming and it locks on to it, the suction is so powerful that you have to release the end manually. Imagine that happening in your ear with something as delicate as your eardrum. It is also unbelievably noisy. I feel sorry for any kids having it done. I think eventually it will be banned for potentially damaging ears as it did mine. I used to regularly get blocked ears after my flights from the UK to Thailand with the pressure on my ears followed by swimming for a week or two. I have now sorted this with an ear hygiene routine: a few days before flying I apply bicarbonate of soda ear drops 2 or 3 times, including once overnight, then, when l shower, I perform a DIY ear syringe with warm to hot water as I shower, delivered with the concentrated shower head jet setting. With my head tilted over, I hold the shower head above, a few inches away from my ear for a few minutes, adjusting the angle until l feel the water hitting my inner ear. After that I continue flushing with my head tilted the other way with my ear downwards for a few minutes so the water flows in and runs out. You will feel and hear when your ear is clean and clear again. It works so well that I actually try to do it regularly now throughout the year. If in Thailand use docosate liquid instead of bicarbonate of soda. It works for me, and I haven't needed an ear syringe or vacuum for many years now.

Thailand has a completely warped conception of what is not 'ethical', e.g., freedom of speech.

From personal experience it only works for pain relief not as a cure. Can be used as an anesthetic.

The shingles vaccine is very important even without this benefit as, from first hand experience I can tell you that shingles and it's after effects are very unpleasant, and more recent research shows that shingles increases your risk of heart attack by 30%. Sorry I can't provide a link but I'm sure meta can find it for you.

He is following these dictator's, that the idealizes, example thus removing any threat of a coup to remove him from office. I fear that such a coup, the sooner the better, will be the only way to remove this undemocratic five-star C * * *.

They are probably up against a (big brown envelope) lobby from the powerful Thai sugar industry.
