I am doing GREAT today!

 

I had my first shot.

 

And I'm just about to get my second.

 

Nothing like a Tequila shot before breakfast.

which vaccine?  No expat that has been injected seems to want to answer that question, and we all know why.  Good luck; at least it may make it easier for you to learn Mandarin mate.

Why don't you compare the wages in the UK or Europe? You just can't compare the prices.

 

because I don't care, so long as it's cheap for me and my present income, all the rest is irrelevant .

Never made that comparison, good tip ! Ditch the canned give 'em cooked.

it does spoil them of course.  Ours only eat asparagus tips, not the whole thing.  They think that they live in the Ritz.  HiSo dogs are a pain, but we love them dearly. 

As far as I know, there is none of that particular vaccine in the country and will not be for a good while, so its all rather academic. I imagine that most expats will have found a way to get AZ by late this year, early next and so the private hospitals will have but a  few who will take it up.

Mrs feeds the dogs chicken breasts because they are cheaper than tinned dog food.

we feed our dogs chicken, pork and chicken livers, very cheap in comparison to good quality canned dog food, better for them too .

I think chicken is really cheap.

Me too,.  Its a fraction of the price in UK and most of Europe and good quality.  Not sure what the OP is expecting.  Pork too,  fillet is a third the price of UK.

So you came all the way to Thailand to sit in a house, or are you a hiker ????

Hardly, I am into  travelling, flying, fishing, sailing and other pursuits . I came here for more than bars and restaurants.  I can get those at home in UK and its rather sad if that is what ethers come here for.  

I'm having to be very relaxed about all this now.  I predict (on no evidence whatsoever) that farang expats will get vaccinated sometime in January next year, bar those that have managed to wriggle through this chaotic system in place right now and have managed to fill themselves full of the Chinese stuff.  I also further predict that we will be paying upwards of 3,000 Baht if we want a choice of vaccine.  So, I will keep clear of crowds, markets, bars and most in door restaurants (unless few people around, only outside tables and in a cool breeze) , and incidentally Bangkok/Chang Mai/Udon, etc, until I do get vaccinated. It's risk mitigation time for the next 6 to 9 months
