Baguettes in Patong?
I recommend Fafa at 122 Nanai. I moved from Phuket a few years ago, but as far as I know he is making his baguettes and they are tasty. Give him a try. -

Is 1 million baht enough to retire in Thailand?
While your estimate may be true by way of your experience, you're dead wrong to declare "no way". There are many much less expensive options. -

Anyone seen a bite like this?
Was in bed Wednesday night and something bit me, it itched a little but I thought nothing of it. In the morning I have this red ring, 1" diameter, slightly raised, skin flaking fron the red section, looks like a burn but isn't. Mosquito, spider, centipede, what could have caused this. Photo taken just now .... -

Thailand Vigilant Amidst 'Disease X' Outbreak in Africa
If nobody pushed back last time, we'd all be whipping out our updated vaccine passports for every flight we get on and every restaurant we intend to eat at. And still wearing masks and social distancing. Best to get ahead of the draconian measures, letting them know they screwed up so bad last time and we won't be fooled again. -

Progressive Leaders Join Elon Musk in Critiquing American Healthcare Costs
For once I agree with Musk, health care costs in the US are completely out of control, they are so overpriced and so are prescription drugs. If there's anything that Trump can do to wrestle these profits away from these Mafia organizations like the Healthcare and hospital industry in America and big Pharma that would be a huge boom for the American people. A good friend of mine got in a bad motorcycle accident some time ago. He almost lost his leg. He got his first of 11 operations at Bangkok Hospital Samui. It costs him over a million baht. They wanted to do a second procedure. They quoted him 1.4 million baht. He decided to transfer to Bangkok. He was quoted 460,000 baht for the same procedure, at a top private hospital there. The surgeon told him that he worked at a public hospital too, and could do the same operation there, for alot less money. He told him he would get him a quote. In the interim, my friend called a buddy in San Diego, who is an orthopedic surgeon. Since my friend is a retired chiropractor, who knew all the terminology, and explained what he needed, and asked for the best price. His friend called him back, and quoted him $960,000, with cash discounts! The local surgeon here got back to him, and told him he could do it for 46,000 baht. He transferred, and they did all the rest of his procedures. So, 1.4 million at Bangkok Hospital, 460,000 at the other private hospital in Bangkok (I think it was Vejthani Hospital), and 46,000 at the public hospital, with an excellent surgeon. VS. 33,000,000 baht in the US. Again, no complaints from this peanut gallery. -

Not true. My son has been a First Officer with a Thai airline for eight years and is now trying to upgrade to Captain.
