TLDR : Answer Summary
Many expats in Thailand find working UK hours (8/9am to 4/5pm UK time) manageable but acknowledge challenges, particularly with the time difference (6 or 7 hours depending on daylight saving). Some adapt by adjusting their daily routines or working non-traditional hours, often reporting favorable experiences during shifts. Comments reflect various perspectives, including the ease of working these hours during the pandemic and the need for adjustment in lifestyle.
I don’t I work 10am to 6pm or 11am to 7pm depending on requirements and that changes for winter time.
I get a few quiet hours on the morning to get on with tasks before uk and Europe wake up then deal with them for a few hours.

I did it during Covid and no issues whatsoever. Gave me chance to get on the bike in the morning and was in a hotel by 1pm ready to go on Teams. Used to finish a little early and still be able to get food and a beer.
thats why said closer to 7 hours because clocks going back in uk soon.

is 24hrs a day, as with gas station. Banks and government close for lunch, small shops 7am to 8pm. farming go with the season. I think , even in the UK, theres no such thing as 9 to 5. Except for Dolly Parton maybe.
