Very much appreciated. My daughters and grandaughter have decided to take a full refund on their KLM flights as they wanted to make a substantial surcharge to change the flights from August to December. So they have rebooked through Emirates (which they much prefer from Scotland) for 10th December as the cost was only marginally over their total refunds and most importantly incorporates the Covid insurance into cost of the flights. That also gives me the option of visiting the UK early next year. Hopefully, by now coming in December Thailand will have waived the quarantine requirement completely otherwise they have the option to change to Easter of the following year. Even 7 days quarantine would make the trip unworkable. Your welcome. Thats a shame,surely id like to think anyhow quarantine will be finished by December,klm ! cowboys no charge to change flights at the moment with emirates,better airline made the right choice hopefully all goes to plan,or even better quarantine is done quicker and they can change to come earlier than dec,good luck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish code !,its just one of the many stipulations set by the thai goverment needed to enter at the moment,still have to do 14 days quarantine,if one should test positive during this time,you will be promptly whisked to the hospital who s associated with the hotel,and hopefully the covid insurance shall pay out,but you know what insurance companys are like,ive read of a few guys having to foot the bill themselves to the hospital while struggling to get their insurance to pay them,10 days in hospital it is assuming you test negative on next test,and they just give you vit c and d.

boydeste Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 After my drunken weekend, where I slept for most of the mornings to recover, I set my alarm for 9am today and managed to drag my sorry ass out of bed. Feels good to be up, dressed and sipping my first few cups of tea with a clear head. My plan was to be a bit more active today with a few jobs outside to tackle. Surprise surprise it's wet and miserable again. So another lazy day is on the cards again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, moving onto Ketamine was not such a good odea😁😁 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horizondave Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Just finished my turbo 20s exercise regime (doesn't include the waltz or the tango) and sipping on a vanilla and banana protein shake. Feeling good so going to try and keep to my efforts of having my next alcoholic drink on 31 March (my daughter's birthday) and then on 06 May after my 2nd vaccine jab. Got to get my beach body ready lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am hoping my 2nd one comes along in a similar time, that would make my chip fully activated just before I am due to fly to Canada, if that ever happens! Not sure if Canada have full 5G yet. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horizondave Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Well finally got to walk the ridge behind my house in Neath and so glad I did. Will put more on later as just snapping right now but just taken this photo 60 seconds ago of the view south east with Swansea Bay to the right and Port Talbot steel works to the left. The coast line in the distance is Devon, England, with Lynmouth in the middle and Ilfracombe to the right. Just listening to Walk Of Life by Dire Straits, seems appropriate. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KWA Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Just realised it's a year to the day since I left the UK to come here for a couple of months after a couple of weeks in Malaysia. Malaysia got bypassed so tomorrow will be the 1 year anniversary of arrival in Pattaya. I might just go out to celebrate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
