scouser 4 Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Not sure why exactly, so I suppose a hypo is a reason there! Link to post Share on other sites
joshnii 2 Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 ipod + nothing. I really enjoy traveling - apart from the waiting around hassles in airports. I never seem to be able to relax or enjoy it. Any 'fun in the airport' tips? Link to post Share on other sites

Yuki's Passion 1 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 >Any 'fun in the airport' tips? There is a really good massage place on the 3rd floor at Bangkok Intl airport. Awesome, worth every baht you pay. Got two massages there cuz I had a lot of time so got a 1 hr massage and had a really nice hot shower. The flight to Beijing afterwards was much more manageable. getting a massage is on the top of my list if I can ever find a place. Link to post Share on other sites

Getting drunk is good fun but I feel kind of gross on long flights if I have more than two drinks. Valium (diazepam) is my drug of choice while travelling. Last time though, the doctor gave me some crap that didn't work. Actually I think it was something for attention deficit disorder. Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 I avoid alcohol on long flights it makes me feel so so bad by the end. Link to post Share on other sites
Yuki's Passion 1 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 valium ger? Id rather have a soma (muscle relaxer) and a pain killer. Feels like you become one with the seat and are floating on a cloud. Usually have a few of those for the long haul back to hotlanta. Link to post Share on other sites
gerard 6 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 I'll try and get some. The pain killers I've got over here tend to be a bit weak though. I'll have to convince the doc than I'm in SERIOUS agony. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 a colleague of mine got DVT from just a London to Hong Kong in biz. He's not an inactive type either. They caught it and gave him dilution drugs for a week. Watch out, it could happen to anybody. Link to post Share on other sites
