Re: Vaccines - Covid 19

The wife's parents in Pathum Thani, were offered Sinovac back in June, but we told them to wait for the AZ Jab, which they did.
They had their first AZ jabs late June and are due their 2nd jab in late September.
Glad they didn’t go for the Chinese vaccine. 🤗

Re: Cholesterol reduction tips

I’ve been using ACV with the mother in it for years. Despite being overweight, don’t exercise, drink red wine and the odd beer and eat loads of red meat, my cholesterol levels are within the “normal range” and have been for years. Not sure if that is due to the ACV or not, but it doesn’t do any harm...

Re: Thailand tourist slump continues

The wife and son usually go to Thailand during the early part of the year for 2 weeks and all of August each year, but Covid has put paid to that. She’s resigned to the fact that this will go on possibly for all of 2021 in some form or other. So we will endeavour to get her family to the UK on 6 mon...

Re: UK apartments lure Thai buyers with deals

I find that very surprising, especially when rental values are taken into account.
Any half decent apartment in, or near the city will bring in a very good monthly rental. Even if he left the property empty, he’d still make money. 🤔

Re: Thailand on red alert in bid to stop 'Pig Ebola' crossing border

With virtually all of Thailand Western border wide open, how is Thailand going to stop any of these diseases coming in. OK, easy to do at border crossings where this can be monitored and enforced, but much of the rest is open to anyone bringing a few pigs in. As Nereus has said before, some dirt poo...

Re: Bodies of murdered Phrae couple found,

My mistake europtimiste I was under the impression they were sentenced to death for their crime. I’ve lost track of the case over the years, but they should have received the death penalty IMHO, for what was obviously a premeditated murder for money.

Re: Bodies of murdered Phrae couple found,

Thanks BB I was under the impression she was released earlier. I spoke to Toby on the night it went t*ts up and he’d kicked her out for huge gambling depts, he was in a bad way, but seemed determined to move on. Sickening the way they killed him for his money. I heard about his murder in the newspap...

Re: Bodies of murdered Phrae couple found,

500+ on death row in Thailand and the last execution was 18 June 2018, but I’m not sure what their crime was.

Who remembers Toby? Murdered by his family for money and I believe his wife, who was sentenced to death for murder, along with two of her family, was out of prison after a few years!

Re: Bodies of murdered Phrae couple found,

Despite being sentenced to death, I doubt it will happen.
They’ll spend a few years in prison until all is forgotten, then quietly be pardoned or something similar.

How many times are foreigners murdered and the perps executed in Thailand.

Re: Living with a severe nut allergy in Hua Hin

Our son is allergic to all nuts with the exception of hazel nuts🤔 and visits Thailand at least once a year. Always a real problem making sure that there are no nuts in the food. His mum is Thai and always speaks directly to the cooks to ensure they don’t use any when cooking his meals. Equally as ba...
