Then the problem started,because it's infected the anaesthetic didn't work so I need a course of antibiotics to get rid of the infection & because of my allergy to certain antibios the dentist wants my GP to prescribe them. Now awaiting a call from a GP. She did remove the filling & cleaned up inside the tooth then put a temp one in. Firstly, I'm sorry to hear that you have problems and suffering pain. I was shocked to see 2k quid (88,000)baht! The total of my "planned" dental work was 37.000 Baht which included 2 wisdom teeth extraction, I x RCS , a filling and some other stuff that is on the list which I'm too lazy to dig it out .. My sons said it was cheap not expensive here in comparison but to see a figure on it brought it home to me how effing lucky I am ... I wish you the best of luck mate !! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m off out for a walk round Benjakitti Park soon I'm guessing this isn't your first trip over here. But, those next day walks in Benjakitti or Lumpini can be life savers. My first stay in BKK was in '99. I stayed at the Royal Benja Hotel on Soi 5 (beofre it went full Allah). Went out got shitfaced beyond belief, picked up the first girl I saw, then headed back to the Royal Benja. The room was palacial, for less than $50/night (during the currency crash), included morning breakfast buffet. The next morning I had the worst hangover I've ever had. I thought I would go down to the buffet anyway and see if there was something I could find that I might be able to "hold down". When walking through the buffet (it was wonderful) I encountered these Thai soups steaming away in these huge silver serving pots. To that date I had never tried such things. I filled up a bowl of Tom Kha Gai (I had never heard of it before, or tasted it). My first sip of that caused me to have a full body orgasim. It was like being transported to another planet. That was what is called falling in love at first sight (taste). It wasn't the day I arrived, the night of drunkenss, the getting laid after many months, it was the moment I took that sip of soup that did me in. Things have never been the same since. I decided I would get married, married to Thailand. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richy65 Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 It’s my 8th trip and I fell in love with Thailand straight away. I’m just back from Benjakkiti after a foot massage on the way back, I’ve always loved walking there and Lumphini park 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lizards you will see at Lumpini. But but both parks are fabulous. You can catch the BTS and transfer over to the MRT at Asok. That in itself is an experience to enjoy. Once you start doing it, you will understand how friggen great it is. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re both superb but Lumphini has the most lizards. You can walk between the 2 via the green mile path which you can pick up at the bottom of Soi 10 by the canal bridge. Lots of people running and exercising early in the mornings 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maipenrai Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Starting to get ready to go to work for the next three nights - I'm on for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday for the first three weekends of this month, and then four nights through the Xmas weekend with my last shift being on Boxing Day and that will be it for this year and I'll be on the plane a couple of weeks later. I don't mind working through the weekends, I drive around all night and get a kick out of watching all of the seasonal police action and knowing I have nothing to worry about; ditto for the Xmas weekend itself, it doesn't mean much to me - let the married guys enjoy the day with their families, I'm happy to fill in for them. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how long you are going to be around. But during smoke season I plan to be down to HH for hopefully a few weeks, beginning in late Feb. If you get a chance try to make your way down there for some good R&R. There might be another bloke or two in here down there during that time as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
