This will make you laugh...  Try the fish and chips in Samitivej Hospital.  Very reasonable at 150 Baht a pop, freshly cooked and not to shabby at all!

Which Samitivej branch, Srinakarin or Sukhumvit?

Now foie gras, red wine and camembert, is another thing entirely.


They are not exactly breakfast snacks, but Napa Valley wines, Vemont cheeses and American steaks are pretty good too. :rolleyes:

Wasn't there a ripe, rotting stench emanating from the pack on the day of the barbie?


:whistling:  Coming from a civiilized country like Australia, we are not used to smelling everything we cook, so the legs were just tossed on the barbie. It was the next day we took a sniff !

Cheap maids and nannies


Yeah, I mean what a drag it would be to have to raise your own kids or clean up after yourself.

Things I don't like about Thailand - people who think like that. ^

On the offchance your comment was tongue-in-cheek I apologise, but having spent a bit of time on Thai Visa I am 95% positive it wasn't.  Sad, very very sad.


Not tongue in cheek at all. So, since you seem to be an authority, who do you suggest baby sits a child while both parents are working?

Actually I was being a bit of a bell end there, I apologise.  If you are both working it's a different matter, but I know plenty of people who just use nannies to raise their kids for them because they can't be arsed (hey, it's cheap!) and it really annoys me.  I've heard two people acually bragging about how they never changed a single nappy of any of their kids.  That's something to brag about?  Pretty sad.

Inducing a catatonic state is never helpful. What is it with the general populous that find it necessary to dumb themselves down with the expected pharmaceuticals.......as these character traits already exist in many societies.:rolleyes:

Silliest post of the year i think.

Some people, (not the general populous),like to sleep (not dumb down) whilst flying,simple really.

Charachter traits donsen't really enter into it either,the OP has stated he's never tried Xanax before.


PST.


#3734123 Police And Guns In Bangkok

I had a simular incident in my soi about 6 months ago, my neighbour rang the police to report a couple of guys selling yaba . two police bikes arrive and then waits for the other police get to the other end of the soi  to block off the overgrown land then I hear shooting and see the young policeman running with a walky talky near his ear and gun blazing .

What shocked me he was firing into a large community in the backround a few hundred metres away    .  

Most of these thai police should not have guns !

Don’t forget or mess with the Police motto “We Can Do Anything (we want because we have the guns and you don’t)”. Sad but true. Hope the shots were not fired in the air. Last year a descending bullet killed a young boy as he was swimming. What goes up must come down.

If you have a retirement visa you can bring in household goods free of duty .The goods must be brought in within 6 months of you arriving in Thailand .Maybe there are other exempt cases also .
I have a shipment of 17 boxes coming over by sea from Ireland ,due to arrive Bangkok end of july .
