  1. Many years ago when I was taking these ferries I never slept below deck.
  2. Phayao a health care hub? Tourists flocking to Dokkhamtai Hospital?
  3. Not a wives tale. This is what I do when I get the hiccups. It works but I get funny looks when I drink from the opposite side of the glass.
  4. I went to Chiang Mai Ram Health Center (not the hospital itself) this morning and got the Shingrix vaccine. I was in and out in less than 45 minutes, total cost 7112 Bt. Will get the second shot in March.
  5. Does anyone know if this is avaliable in Chiang Mai or Chiang Rai? The last time I looked into getting a shingles vaccine in CM only SKYZoster was available.
  6. I lived in Japan a number of years. Even a lot of the seafood served in Japan wasn't caught in Japanese waters.
  7. https://classix-siam.online/cars-for-sale/
  8. I don't understand what this ranking was based on, but I don't believe it's anccurate. I lived in Japan for over 30 years and I think Thais speak far better English than the Japanese.
  9. I got my Thai license about one year ago. The test is difficult. There is the issue of bad translation, but also many of the questions have nothing to do with driving. There are a number of question about various drugs and there effects. I got my license by taking a course at Honda Safety Park in Chiang Mai. It's a driving school primairly for motorcycles, but they also have a couse for a car license. There several throughout Thailand. They have a large pool of test questions to help you prepare. I don't think I would've passed if I hadn't taken the course.
  10. I think it depends on the person. I had 2 Pfizers and a Moderna booster. I had mild soreness in my arm for a night after the Pfizers. After the Moderna, I literally felt nothing. My gf got the Moderna booster. Her arm became quite sore for two days and she had a mild fever for a day.
  11. I had a permanent crown put in 1 week ago. Occasional sensitivity when I eat something hot or cold. I take it that's normal?
  12. In Phayao for my last extension in June, immigration required a 12 month statement. Prior to that it was a 6 month statement.
  13. Does anyone know where I can get German Lebkuchen cookies, either in Thailand or shipped to Thailand? Amazon has them, but won't ship them to Thailand.
  14. Yeah, I retired at 53 and was glad to walk away. My father worked until his early 60's at the same place for over 30 years. He said he loved it. I just don't get it.
  15. 13 degrees in Phayao the other night.
  16. It could be regional. I'm American and I say quarter till and quarter past. I've never in my life said quarter of.
  17. If you've been double vaxed, would you have a higher probability of a false positive?
