  1. Further update on the scan (that I had yesterday), the quoteq price was required in full on arrival as.a "deposit". No problem there, and the final itemised bill came to very substantially less. A gladly recieved refund. Plus an overnight stay was included. The hospital itself is fine, not as busy as I remember Bumrunrgad or BCH being, but that was a while ago.
  2. You continue to ignore the fact that they say he missed his flight. Missing a flight and not communicating for 5 days would cause concern, though you prefer the more sensationalist word "panic".
  3. Because he MISSED HIS FLIGHT, and hasn't contacted his family.
  4. Pint is just a generic term, everyone who's been here more than 5 minutes knows that it's only 500 ml. There is no short measure, no cheating, no shrinkflation, no big deal, no problem. The Old English do a questionable 500 ml measure including a large head on the Draught Leo, but for 45 baht or 85 a "pint" (depending on the hour of the happy hour) I have not seen anyone send it back.
  5. Best part of 20 years ago I was stopped by an Indian gentleman in Soi 4 who told me I had a lucky face. Not feeling my sunniest that day my response was "I've got cancer you xxxx" which was the case at that time. He disappeared, and after treatment so did the other.
  6. No they were in Soi 19 long before covid. When did the English (Sheffield) fella sell it.?
  7. I remember it being on Sukhumvit, but my definition of not so long ago seems to differ from yours.
  8. Yes to this, good places and I'd be surprised if there's better prices anywhere in central Bangkok. On Paddy's day the Soi 8 pub had it on special at 200.
  9. This isn't the only place in the world that calls 500 ml a pint. I wonder how long he'd been here before he realised it was 500ml.
  10. Agree. Or in many cases, parent.
  11. Not I. You are the man in the know.
  12. Well the person who wrote the story is on fb so could be asked.
  13. Well he did give you a clue, "I don't know anything about wells".
  14. I thought you said you're not from Liverpool. England.
  15. Each to our own, though Angus, caldera and the cyclist seem to have my thinking. Statements, 60 day hotel booking, flight tickets out. Probably sounds bad to me, I've never arrived by air so those bits sound irritating. Been on retirement extension for a while so the real world does not intrude much.
  16. I can only wish you well, lost mine a long time ago.
  17. Not exactly a laugh and a joke, but not the end of the world. Painful mistake.
  18. Agree, how many years can he expect.?
  19. There's no apostrophe in a plural. And it's you're not your.
  20. It suits the face that says I'm being done for smuggling cocaine into Thailand.
  21. Or put it there to take later on the flight, thinking he wouldn't forget about it then fell asleep and did just that.
  22. I am cool enough with the balcony window/doors open during the day (Bangkok 8th floor) but nighttime I can't do without aircon. Common syndrome or not.?
  23. The scan actually came to 15,158, that was a neck scan. Appointment 08,00 out by 09.00 and home by 10.00. No problems there.
  24. The first para from the post by at15 at 10.33 am yesterday.
