  1. Unless it's in a language/teachers forum then I'd say yes it is, soft trolling/baiting IMO and adds nothing to a debate or topic and lets not forget some of the posters here are not fluent in English and English is a second language.

    It makes me laugh though when people pick people up on spelling and grammar and then make mistakes themselves, now they IMO derserve to be ridiculed.

    I totally agree, also I cant be bothered most times going back over a post to correct typos..... I think like my mother used to say, If you have nothing good to contribute to the conversation go to your room and bat off some more........

  2. Google your favourite radio station,it should have a 'Listen live' link,click on that,and the station will play live through your Media Player.

    I use this method to listen to 4 stations from the UK (not at the same time,obviously).

    PST.

    Download Itunes dude, its got heaps of streaming radio.

    BBC world news have a stream and most of the radio stations that you listend to back home will most likely have something too...

  3. Maybe im a little old fashioned but, can you just wait till they leave for a day go in and put their stuff in boxes, change the locks and leave a letter on the door that they can collect their stuff upon full payment of rent owing and expenses of repairs?

    Or can you not do that sort of thing here?

  4. How about, the Reds dont want another Farang nosey parker to get hurt....

    Honestly I think only journo's should be alowed in, not every bloody thong and singlet wearing tourist who wants to think that they can cause mischeif and crap.

    Its honelsty not their fight, stay out of it.

    As a side to that I think that farang that call Thailand home who really do feel that what the Reds are fighting for is right then sure, get into it.

  5. Hi Timmy,

    I'm not aware of the set up issues involved in the establishment of a guest house, however I do know about the hotel industry as it stands at the moment...

    I would seriously reconsider it at the moment.

    I have a large client who owns and manages many, many 3,4 & 5 star resorts and guesthouses through out Asia and they are closing 3 hotels for 6 months in Thailand in the coming months, Western tourism (ther predominant market) is dropping majorly at the moment, and some major players are a little concerned....

    I would do some serious research into your market, as western tourism is dropping significantly... on the flip side, Indian and Chinese tourism to Thailand has dramatically increased..... something to think about...

    Good luck and hope it goes well for you, which ever way you go.

  6. I can understand people coming here for easy women, but I can't understand that there are people who can't understand that people don't come here for easy women.

    Quite preposterous that some people's life is so cemented in the bar scenario, that they can not imagine others without any interest at all.

    I think that your right but you might not be, or at least I dont, or maybe do agree with your comments........

    I think....

    People come and go for wayyyyy too many reasons, I just think that being jaded by other peoples actions are well... silly.....

  7. I have just come here, and the undercurrent of dudes here for sex is actually kind of disturbing..... I know it was here I just didn't know it was as bad as it was......

    Anyway, I came here not for cheap women, I cam here for the opportunity to experence another culture, learn an other language and live outside my comfort zone.

    I think that the attitude that you come here with is what will define your stay and in the end define how and when you leave...

  9. Hi guys and girls.

    Im new to Thailand from Asutralia, Im working in Sales and Marketing and Im finding alot of very useful infor here.

    I am a bit of a forum whore....... everyone needs a hobby.

    It's all a bit much at the moment, not knowing the language, culture and many people but you know time will change that.

    so......... cool.......

    Kingfisher.

  10. Its the 'not giving anything away' thing that gets me, like jsut because there is a little unreast in the country, the airlines have to satrt giving away flights and hotel rooms and all that.....

    Shit, maybe I should get a prommisary note for a all expenses trip to paris or spain or the moon....

    THEN, if i dont get it, ill start shoulting at the countersatff and whining like a little bitch!

    F'n brits. no wonder the world gave you a reptatuion like the one you gotz.
