Not having the financial acumen and research capabilities of others on here I restrict my activity to the currencies section of my antiquated paper version of the Bangkok Post. So today it's showing UK/Baht 43.71. Read into that what you will, but what will it show if Trump storms home next week.? If it goes to 30.00 my days here will surely be numbered. Ah I remember my first Carlsberg in the Dog's Bollcxx bar when the rate was 70 something, improving daily and we were all rich men. But that was then. I have an opening for a driver in NZ....must be sober and fit into my old cream suit. No shoes provided. |

Took the boy to see Cold Chisel last night. I'll add that to the list of shit I'll never do again. Not that they were bad, we're all getting old.

Ah I remember my first Carlsberg in the Dog's Bollcxx bar when the rate was 70 something, improving daily and we were all rich men. But that was then. When the $Au hit 1.20 to the $US all the Indians at work went out and bought their life's savings of $US expecting it to hit $2Au. Of course it immediately plummeted to 70c to the Au, and they all lost half their money. |

I tried to post a sensible post on the other channel about a dentist in Isaan. Gave up on the end and stuck it in the political section.
The mods can sort that shit out.

Shoyte I was looking forward to some intrigue to brighten the afternoon up.
Not that I lead a sad, boring life or anything.

Shoyte I was looking forward to some intrigue to brighten the afternoon up. Not that I lead a sad, boring life or anything. There's another one that's even more riveting than this one. If I can find it I'll add a link. aseannow.com/topic/1337258-dentists-in-bueng-kan/#comment-19205238Here ya go. Life in the fast lane. They can't even recommend a dentist. |

I couldn't even find the Isaan section so I just stuck it in the pub hoping someone might stumble over it.

I can recommend dentists in Chiang Mai but not anywhere else, let me know if that's useful. |

Now back from a few days in the islands, nice to get away but the drive is daunting, 12 hours one way. Didn't make it to Koh Chang and Koh Kood, went to Samet instead, which we've never been to before. Nice beaches, Koh Samed Beach Resort is nice but the food is crap. moderately busy, plenty of Eastern Europeans about...had the ferry all to ourselves! Had my first beer in months/years, damn it tasted good.
