Watching this laying in my hotel room for the 5th day on two antibiotics and respiratory meds. Had to find cleaner air so I hopped a quick flight to Danang where it's much easier to breath. Being in my 60's I have to say you are spot on about our health being our greatest wealth. The air pollution is brutal this year and making me consider skipping SEA during the dry season as the burning is out of control throughout the region. Best wishes to you and glad you're feel better!

Hi Geoff…good to hear you are ok, I wondered what happened to you. I discovered your channel over Christmas and loved watching your videos. Missed you over the past few weeks so I have watched many of your other videos and they are all brilliant and so entertaining. Love watching your cooking videos too, so I’m looking foward to many more videos from you. Prefer watching your videos to anything on TV 😊 You are the best and such a lovely person. Take good care ❤

Geoff, we are all so glad your fighting fit again, just love you and your channel, your such a great character.

Hi Geoff... good to see you are fit and well, really enjoy your movies! Back in March 2022, just after things reopened after you know what, I visited Thailand again, but due to all those crazy entry requirements back then (pcr's and all that malarkey) I was pretty much forced to take out the Travel Insurance with Axa Thailand... This however came to my rescue when I fell ill on the day of my flight home... i'd made it to Swampy, but I was unable to board my flight with what turned out to be a nasty case of gastroenteritis, so I ended up taking a taxi to a private hospital where I spent the next 3 nights... Anyway, the surprising thing for me was that there was no excess or upfront payment with a claim the money back scenario... 100% of the bill was fully covered and agreed between the hospital and Axa... One to note if anyone is heading to Thailand and want full coverage... I won't use anyone else but Axa Thailand now... a very easy website to navigate as well! Cheers!

Glad you are safe and much better Geoff. I had a very similar episode in Bangkok. I was in Pattaya for some time and no problems. I then stayed at a hotel in Bangkok near the airport link Baiyoke area and had the air con blasting cold air like you do. On the last day I was feeling total rubbish to put it mildly. I flew home and then a few days after it got better. If you are doing the cooking videos that will be great. I really like them and then having a go at cooking it. Take good care and keep up the great work.

Nice to see you got some money 👍I am still waiting. They cancelled my KLM flight end of Jan and tried to put me on air France via Vienna . I refused that flight and told them I paid for premium because of my bad knee. They then rebooked me on KLM premium 2 days later. I could not believe it when last minute they put me in economy. I think they sold my seat,I checked how much one way last minute it was over 1200 euro. Finally got home 5 days later.Had to pay a few days fine for overstay. I chose to take cash instead of a voucher.

I am glad you ok Geoff. I had a fall in Pattaya and quite badly injured my leg with a nasty gash and potential infection. I had taken out my insurance with Allclear which is covered by Zurich. They paid for my taxi to Bangkok and put me in one of the top hospitals as an inpatient, and although the admin was a pain as it always is, I was properly looked after. This is the first time I have had a positive outcome with the medical side of my insurance and based on my experience, I would recommend. My previous insurers in 2020 suggested I went to the local Thai clinic which even the hotel manager shook his head at. Anyway, the main thing is you're ok now.

Brits are notorious for having weak Respiratory systems due to a damp climate which peaked in the 70's when Brits went to Spain & were fatally succumb to Legionnaire's decease.

Dammit Geoff, i know how much you were looking forward to this extended trip and how much you would have wanted to stay if at all possible, lets all keep our fingers crossed for the Irish lottery for you! the last three times i have been to Thailand i have been onto the site we usually buy from and if you select the flight you want and then scroll down it will show you the price for booking with the airline direct, it's surprisingly not much more than the cheapest (usually about £70 more for the return trip) i booked with the airline for exactly the reason you mentioned and just in case Thailand went into lockdown again. good to see you are clearly on the mend mate, i think the treatment in Pattaya City hospital would have been far better than the hospital in Bangkok, but no use crying over spilled milk, lets just hope things take an upturn and you can get back out soon, in the meantime i look forward to "Cooking with Carter" remember Geoff........KEEP SMILING!! beep beep!!!
