Re: A Medical Emergency in Hua Hin

Oh dear BB, this isnt going to end well - but we already knew that. But it's quite a relief to hear it started with an accident. Edit. Sorry, just to ask, did you not have your hospital card with you? Notwithstanding the fact they were asking for your passport. During April I ended up in A&E tw...

Re: What is going rate for Health Insurance?

Re: Thai Driving License renewal 2019 to 2025

Re: Football (not Premier League)

From what I’ve seen, most of the clubs that have received significant financial input from the “Sugar Daddies” run at a loss, certainly in the Premier League, more teams made a loss in 23-24 than made a profit

Re: Retirement Extension - Can I Book a Home Visit?

Thanks guys. I was considering one option to ask an agent. I've also been considering the 'sending my son' route. Migrant's solution sounds very similar, although it does seem the solution might be out there. I was just hoping that I can't be the only Retiree to suffer an unfortunate accident, and ...

Re: Electric Vehicles (EV) Thread

I’m guessing that photo is a few years old Steve? I worked in Saudi 20 years ago and driving through the Eastern Province this was a familiar sight. Although I believe it still goes on (as a safety measure) moves have been made in recent years to reduce the incidence of “flare-off”, so hopefully thi...

Confirmed! Good manager, let's see what he can do with the spurs. Confirmed where? I'm sure it will happen but where is it nailed on? Have Spurs or Brentford made an official announcement?

Re: The bikers thread; trips, news, chat, all things motorcycle

What about Motor Ville in Cha Am opposite Big Kiang - I know they’re not a BMW agent but they deal with big bikes so may be worth a look? https://maps.app.goo.gl/gmXS1VqyecVpgG6t8?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy If you read the reviews section it’s very positive including one happy customer who ha...

Re: Flights to/from Thailand status, news, and updates

Sorry, I obviously didn’t read the article carefully enough and thought they were operating out of Singapore and didn’t realise that they had some services directly to/from BKK.
