  16. I would research the mesh option. It may be something to do with the quality of doctors working in the UK's NHS, but there are some reports of post operative problems.
  17. They do keyhole surgery for bunions?
  18. And here are this afternoon's rates. It's all downward again, indicating a general strengthening of the baht! USD down 5 satang GBP down 35 satang EUR down 33 satang Oz$ down 28 satang CAD down 21 satang Just for teelack NZD down 6 satang On 1 week ago.
  19. Excellent, informative and I will take a look soon.
  20. Data is just data, whether you use if for watching you-tube or hotspot to a pad or laptop so not sure what you are asking here. Not like the restrictive USA.
  21. Today the £ hit a long term low for the past decade. Transferring some to the local bank will get you 41.8 baht per £ this morning. Shxt, I think I will go waste a bunch of baht tonight!
  22. Everything is always someone else's fault these days and people can't be responsible for their own actions! It would be a stretch to even blame airport check-in staff at London, sometimes they are not carrier staff but an agent. British man racked up £36,000 in speeding fines and now can’t leave Dubai ‘There is no way he has that money. He is out of work at the minute and went to Dubai to visit friends. The Metro Out of work, yet can afford a trip to Dubai and swans around in a supercar breaking the law.. but not his fault, What a wanker!
  23. True, and although not making excuses for how she was treated, one has to respect the culture of the place one is visiting. Emaratis can be a bit haughty, and not only illegally filming the official, she may have given him some attitude, I would expect a possible chauvinistic response.
  24. Those were days long gone. I was a Middle East road warrior and a transit via Dubai, with the single Malts at peanut prices are a thing of the past. The prices these days are over the top, I used a credit card for a big bottle of Drambuie and had no real concept of the price in UAE Dirhams, I certainly noticed it on the statement in Sterling. BiZ security was 2 checks last time I did transit, a hectic one that was bedlam on landing, and a perfunctory hand baggage one at boarding. These mega airports like Dubai, Doha etc are all about glitz and herding!
