  1. Yes Me and my wife got another Pfizer booster a few weeks ago in Banglamung hospital free I am 67 my wife is 51 we are also going to get my annual Flu jab at the same hospital. Regards Scotsman. PS its alway been a personal choice as they say in Thailand up to you.
  2. If the new Government does put cannabis back on the illegal list and not Alcohol and tobacco witch is also a drug but way more harmful would be hypocritical. Once you pass into law that all 3 of these drugs are now legal ,then just picking the least harmful one is crazy in my opinion. If you ban one you must ban all but we all know money talks so in my opinion none of them will be band just regulated, but we shall see in Time. Regards Scotsman PS you can buy as much paracetamol in Thailand as you like but its regulated in the UK pharmacies as they only sell you so much at a time. Paracetamol can also be a harmful drug. Do you ban them as well I know its a silly example but that is how crazy this knee jerk reaction to Cannabis is.
  3. If the Experts are correct then they are also correct when it comes to alcohol and cigarettes so if they want to ban Cannabis they should also ban the other 2. If they don't then I don't agree with them if they do ban all 3 then I agree with them for not being hypocritical. All 3 of the legal drugs on the market is bad for you in some degree so you just can't pick and choose which one you want to ban. I have to say in my opinion all 3 of them is making far to much money now to ban any of them, you just have to enforce the laws you have to mitigate the Bad from all 3. Regards Scotsman
  4. Don't buy the cheap mac mini M2 599 with the 250GB SSD as it slower than the M1 250GB SSD and if you do a lot of video editing or music editing then up the Memory to 16GB then you have a very fast computer. It always depends on your budget. But this is a good video on the subject. Regards Scotsman
  5. I was prescribed Irribow 5 mg https://www.mimaki-family-japan.com/item/detail?item_prefix=TF&item_code=002050&item_branch=001. IBS - D. i can also use Mebeverine 135 mg. the cost is 1900 for 27 tablets of Irribow from fascino pharmacy but they have to order the Irribow the Mebeverine was 700 baht or 800 Baht for a box of 10 x 10. I will stop the Irribow when they are finished as they are expensive and see what happens. Physillium husks works for both IBS-D or C. Change your diet when you find one thing that makes it worse write it down a low Fodmap Diet is also good. I was also prescribed Antidepressants at a low does for 1 month then I just used the Irribow. I also went for a colonoscopy to check all was well inside the colon and it was just 2 small polyps removed benign so all well. I had no IBS symptoms until I got Covid from my family in Feb this year one month later so I blame that. I don't get to much stomach pains or bloating just Diarrhea a few times a day but with the husks its not bad. A lot better than it was in March to May it was very bad at night as well as day now only mornings. Hope this is of some help. Regards Scotsman
  6. Just to update everyone my visa agent is wrong you can get a residency certificate for a bank account as I have just been to immigration to apply for one. I did not tick any of the boxes on the form so the lady asked me what i needed it for and the name of the Bank, so I pick it up tomorrow. Cost 300 baht so thank you all for your help. Regards Scotsman
  7. Hi thank you for all your replies just to give you more info my visa agent understands and speaks good english and knows what I am asking. I am living in Pattaya so its Chonburi immigration with the long queues. My embassy is going to cost way to much to get this so that is a no. I have 3 bank accounts 2 with Bangkok bank and one with SCB I was never asked for a residency certificate in the 20 years I have lived here so this is a first for me. The JAD-TEM account does ask for this information and a work permit but the lady in SCB only asked me for the certificate I want to transfer my 800k into this account to get a better % rate. I asked my visa agent if we could just get one for a driving license as I got one not long ago. I was told that the document form would ask about my old driving licence so it would not be possible. If no one knows if I can get one just to open this kind of account then I will just have to bite the bullet and go to immigration to find out. Regards Scotsman
  8. I went to a visa agent to get a residency certificate for a bank account as the SCB asked for one to open a account called JAD-TEM account, the Visa Agent said they don't do this for a bank account just for driving licence or new car or motorbike in your name. I don't want to go to immigration to ask them as there is alway a long wait outside so I will ask on this forum if what the visa agent has said is true?. Regards Scotsman
  9. I also have the flowermate Aura and it is very portable and the only problems i have seen online about them is the mouthpiece can crack due to the heat. Regards Scotsman
  10. I have received my order and it is a good device no extra charges so I don't know if it came from America or Europe or in Thailand but it did take a while to get it. I don't think you should take the chance it will be stopped in Customs as $400 is going to get you a lot of import tax. But you can ask the company using there line app support. Regards Scotsman
  11. https://thaivape.shop/. I bought one from here Scotsman
  12. If they have buy one get one free it can save you a lot. They also have some crazy deals as well. I use to use Iherb but that was during the height of the pandemic and the post was going through China so it was delayed a lot. May be they have changed back to another postal service I will check it out. It's still good to have more than one service for our supplements. Regards Scotsman
  13. I have now bought a Flowermate Aura Dry Herb Vaporizer just waiting for delivery. I also bought Strawberry Kush and Charlotte's Mix to try and get some good Sleep and pain relief. So thank you for your post. regards Scotsman
  14. https://thaivape.shop/. I have ordered one from here so I don't think this is illegal as far as I know so I hope I can post this link if not then remove my post. regards Scotsman
  15. Yes it includes Anesthetic and covid test I will be booking an appointment very soon. Regards Scotsman
  16. I asked them for a package price bangkok pattaya hospital they sent me a email with the price it was 19k but with about 1k or 1.500 extra for doctor bill so total 21k. Regards Scotsman
  17. Is a Vaporizer legal in Thailand ? and what is the difference from a Water Bong?
  18. My history is that I smoked pot from the age of 17 as a experiment when I lived in London to stop me drinking too much beer as I had a beer belly. It worked my body weight was now down to a normal level. I never stopped until my late 20 and really enjoyed the experience as I grew up to be a better person as my mind was opened to all the good music that was around in those days. I got to meet very nice people from all walks of life when I went to a lot of live concerts., London was a very good place to grow up as a 17 year old green scottish lad. My education on life also improved with me reading more and taking a interest in many subjects. The reason I stopped was I found it hard to get to work every day due to laziness so at first I stopped during work days and only did it at weekends. Then i just gradually stopped altogether it was not a problem as I had moved back to Scotland with a new Job and I wanted to travel. I have been living in Thailand now for over 20 years there was one day up in Chiang Mai that I was given a try of a joint but I had stopped smoking everything for many years by this time and i coughed and It hurt my throat so I did not do it again. I have a lot of health problems now at 66 years old with neck and back pain with joint pain along with insomnia so I will be looking to get back to trying cannabis again when the price comes down with a Bong if I can find one to buy to help me sleep and get pain relief as this will not hurt my throat so much or make me cough. So good for Thailand to let this happen I can't wait. Regards Scotsman
  19. I have used both honda garages you talk about they are both ok for servicing the Baan Amphoe is the bigger garage that is where we bought our new car from very friendly and helpful. We use the other Naklua Garage for servicing ,so far they were ok we will be going back again next week for our 2nd service. Bann Ampoe the roadworks put me off traveling all the way there just to get a oil change. Regards Scotsman
  20. https://th.pipingrock.com/. I have been using this company for over a year now so far very good. regards Scotsman
  21. Why does your online car insurance quote for a june 2021 honda city RS only 495,000 when the car is worth 580,000? Is there a way to increase the insurance cover on your online system?
  22. In pattaya they have asked me for a copy of my foreign Driving licence that you used to get your Thai driving license in the red and white paper appointment card they staple to your documents. It was number 6 in there list number 5 was a copy of your 1 hour training video. 1 to 4 was all the rest that everyone has said already hope this helps. regards Scotsman
  23. Is the pattaya land and transport office still taking foreigners in the morning for renewal of 5 year driving licence as first come first serve? I wish to go this week to renew my expired 5 year driving licence I will have all the necessary paperwork and my licence expired at the end of October I could not go and renew it before or after due to personal problems. So I am able to do it now. Regards Scotsman
  24. With another work from home coming soon in the UK and the pensions still being paid late will this add to the delay? I think it will be 6 months before I ever see mine with a lump sum of back dated payments. So it's good you can still make the claim by phone but it's going to be a while before you see any money. Regards Scotsman
