Never even thought to ask although I believe the Hospital prices are cheaper with them being Government assisted.

Re: Monkeys in Hua Hin Neighborhoods?

Quite often see troops of them on the cables heading up Soi 88 from railway road end. I assume they will be heading for feeding time at Hin Lek Fai

Re: 123 Hulu . com

Apologies. Yes it's Windows Defender I'm using, never yet had an issue with it. The fact that it's a Microsoft approved product with constant updates and it's free lol keeps me using it

Re: 123 Hulu . com

I use the Windows 10 bundled Bit Defender which is an included freeby from Microsoft. Never had a problem with it and it gets regular updates automatically.

Also use the free Hola VPN set to USA and no issues with that either :cheers:

I'm still awaiting delivery of a small 'jiffy bag' posted on October 24th last year from UK with a couple of small items that were required for Christmas.
