Topics I've Started

Diet Diabetic2

2012-05-23 01:09:29

I spend roughly 4 months ( probably this year 8 months or maybe longer as work for me is about done, I am 57 ) at a time in Thailand enjoying myself, especially the not working part but I have a great deal of trouble with my diet. As the title denotes I am type 2 and take metformin and gliclazide, do swimming and gym work but my diet is appalling. KFC, Burger King etc. I do like beer ( Singha ) and find that it actually does not really send my sugar levels wild. My question is what would a sensible hassle free , by that I mean not cooking, not my strong point, diet be for me to follow. I like fruit so ok on that score but seeing as rice is not good for diabetics I'm a bit stumped. Diet input please.

Ret.Visa-House

2012-03-28 16:55:23

I have a little house near Bang Chang worth roughly 2mill baht. I went the company route instead of the girlfriend one ( not have 1 ) in buying it. I know all the rules about falangs not being able to own land etc so an update of that is not required. I am 57 and my question, is could I use the house as collateral in getting a retirement visa?
   Thanks for any answers and have a good day.

60+60+60

2012-03-26 02:01:39

Last year I bought a triple entry visa from Hull, 98 quid if I remember correctly. I did one border run after the first 60 days and left to go back to the UK 6th March leaving me one 60 day stamp left. So if I go back to Thailand before November 28th ( the start date of the triple entry visa ) then that will be my third entry thus giving me 60 days. The question is if I fly out after the 60 days, say to visit a friend in NZ will I get 30 days Visa on arrival when I come back? Thanks for any info.

Klong Thom

I fancy going to the Klong Thom market on Sunday morning. What would be the best route from Thong Lor ? Any one know roughly how much the taxi fare would be from Thong Lor ? Sometimes, I find as a time factor it pays to get the BTS to within your approximate vacinity then a taxi.

Drawstring Bag

Can any TV member tell where I can buy a simple drawstring bag to put my towel and goggles in when I go swimming?
   Thanks.
