I have experience with what you have asked about. Thinking of a reply I decided not to give you one for the following reasons. I think that everyone will heve a different outcome and reaction to a TURPS op and even your surgeon will only be guessing. The issue isnt the operation, its about what you may be suffering without it. The only advice that I would give you is that if it is interfering with your life now and you dont have it sorted than I would rule out moving to Thailand.

what's going on with the edit function?
teelack replied to Butch's topic in Technical problems or questions.
Can I suggest that anyone doing a trip report or a long post use Word or whatever first. Simply copy and paste. Problems with editing do occur but at least you still have the basic post saved to docs. The other benefits are that you get to use the Spell checking and you can do the mail in chunks as you get the time and inspiration. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk -
Hua Hin International Jazz Festival
teelack replied to RhinoTusk's topic in Pictorial Travel Reports
Thanks for the essay. If anyone feels up to it I would appreciate some thoughts about the Pattaya/Hua Hin ferry trip. Is the Business Class worth the extra? How far/long say from the ferry terminal to say the Hilton and how do you travel it? Are there any smaller hotels in the same area that are OK? Any other info on things to see and do. -
I think that you will find that this is indeed Sutus Court. My thought is that it has a separate listing as Status because people get the spelling wrong. If you look at the Internet you can see this by checking the address. The reason that I make the point is that while you might struggle to find reviews of Status Court I have seen quite a lot for Sutus Court.
-
Because I am curious, where is this place? Couldn't be Sutus Court could it?
-
To prove the point I didnt even recall that you smoked.

Something that is never though that I would say. I was in a gogo bar for a party one night so it was full. Guy next to me stoked up his vapour and proceeded to blow cloud of seriously smelly smoke. I had no where to move to because of the crowd and suffered the stench. For the first time in years I thought that I quite liked cigarette smoke! I didn't know that the cloud of smoke could be that dense or the smell that bad. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Hua Hin International Jazz Festival
teelack replied to RhinoTusk's topic in Pictorial Travel Reports

Great reading as usual. Thanks for your efforts.

So's Place on Soi 15 Behind The Avenue
teelack replied to Evil Penevil's topic in Restaurants and food
Thanks for the review Evil. This is my sort of place where the cooking is personal and seems that the food looks authentic. I have been using places like this but the last two shut their doors and this looks like a good replacement. I also find that Thai girls are happy in unpretentious places like this and prefer the home made version to the restaurant sort. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk -
Best time of year to go to Pattaya?
teelack replied to Tucker_69er's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
Well said. If it looks like rain then stay in an area that has a lot of bars. It may take hours to get back to your hotel but you will feel no pain when you arrive. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk -

The distance from Auckland to Bangkok is similar to UK to Bangkok. I just paid for my direct flight today and it was the lowest price I have had for years. Approx sterling $500 economy return. The problem with Thai is that they are never consistent with their prices and next week could have been 50 % more which is the standard price. As someone said, people will pay a premium for direct. That happened here and the result was daily flights rather than every other day. I think that the lower price reflects the extra seats that became available. Perhaps there is a moral to this story?

Thanks again for the monthly message of hope. It took me three reading to twig the Liverpool one. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Thanks. Always a good read and strangely it all makes sense in a town not known for it. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Worrying about a shortage of KF (no C) is rightly in the Funnies area.

The future of Pattayatalk - An open discussion
teelack replied to frostfire's topic in == Announcements ==
Frosty. Firstly,thanks for taking on the extra workload and keeping the forum running. For as number of us this is a life line to Pattaya when we are stuck somewhere else. I would suggest that the issue here is that you need a solution that will not burden you with work or take you into unfamiliar territory. Also the funding has to be on-going rather than a monthly fight for revenue. Lets also break down the cost. The cost of running the service equates to 150 baht per day approx. The question is who would benefit in Pattaya from a 150 baht a day investment in advertising? Any ta -

No problem. You are correct regarding the approx. million Dreamers who were bought to the US and have lived most of their lives there. They didn't ask for it but hey, send them back. Being right is having might I guess.
-
It is interesting for someone like me to read these comments. Like many others I know little about the political system in the US however Trump has bought is into the limelight. I have noted however that the comments seem very black and white (literally) and insults about the players from the left and right at the norm rather than the exception. In fact, reading the comments here leads people like me to believe that the US is on a very bad slippery slope. It allows people to carry rifles designed for war by mentally challenged people. The race relations never seem to actually improve, simp

Cannot help but think that whilst the questions are legitimate that you just come to the place and enjoy what it has to offer. This place is unlike others and I am sure that well before you booked you did some serious homework on the internet. The joy of Pattaya is letting it happen rather than planning. Walk into most gogo bars and make it known what you and your wife would like and as long as you flash the cash you will be welcomed with open arms. As for strip clubs well there is nudity available all over the place and you might have to pay a few to put their gear back on again! Bring a

Any suggestions for long term stay
teelack replied to streeteats's topic in Hotel and Accommodation Questions
I recall answering this question for someone else and getting my ass torn out. This was because he didn't tell us what was important to him and human nature will therefore make us substitute what we want rather than what you do. Make life a bit easier. tell us your accommodation preference. Possible cost/price limits. Facilities required such as pool, gym and restaurant. You will get a lot of dubious suggestions without more info. -
No problem to me Patna but keep on posting the photos! Best of luck with whatever your new/next venture is.

Thinking about this I have one other candidate. A boardie was asking about Chang Mai a few days ago and perhaps the best breakfast was part of the very reasonable nightly rate at the Pornping Hotel. I was having a drink on the rooftop bar with some other Euro people staying there and everyone mentioned it and in some cases took fruit and yoghurt out and that was their food for the day as they stuffed themselves full in the restaurant.

first time in pattya celebrating my 60th
teelack replied to martini9946's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
I can only suggest that you keep the thread alive. I am happy meeting members but I am never 100 % sure about my time table. July is a way off. Ask the question again and I am sure that there will be a boardie or two to have a drink with. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
