I'm not at all jealous Bogs, in fact I'm happy for your success, assuming it's not a windup. However you don't seem to be enjoying that success, as evidenced by your constant jaundiced posts. They to lose all that hate and you might end up being someone who is worth having a proper conversation with. Also I have a few BTC under my belt too, so that don't impress me much. My only advice would be to try and keep hold of as much of it as you can (downsize?) until the crypto winter is over. Sell at 100k if you can, not 25.

Nah I'm never going to CW in my life if I can possibly help it ????

Nope, my official address for immigration purposes is in Bangkok. TM30 for Bangkok address was filed online by the condo office in February. However I get my extensions done in Pattaya for convenience's sake. Pattaya immigration also "conveniently" submitted a new TM47 for me in March even though I'd just successfully filed one online in Feb for the Bangkok address. For some reason CW aren't happy with that and rejected my last online TM47 so now I have to either mail my PP to Soi Post in Patts or hump the bus to Jomtien. I did that yesterday, it was a nice little trip when thought I'm not a massive fan of Jomtien. I have standards so I took a songthaew to Pattaya Soi 13 and had a proper breakfast at the Sportsman instead of that loso place on the immigration Soi ????

Not exclusive to Thailand so get off your high horse Bogsy. You also claim to be a businessman and want to take 20 mil baht out of this "godforsaken place". So it's OK for you to profit from business but not the banks? I think you need some alone time with a very good therapist.

Not entirely correct. I reside in Bangkok but I have to hump a bus to Jomtien to do my 90 day reports ????

Some girls insist on it. Well just the one I know of, many moons ago at Hot and Cold on Yamato. Or was it Post? I always get them mixed up.

"AUD to 50 cents" or something wasn't it? I was just having a bit of a lend of young Gypsy, see if he's been paying attention or not ????

No idea, I'm too poor to stay there now that they've dispensed with the Covid specials. The OP talks a good game in his other threads so I assumed he was loaded and could afford the extra grand or so for the 'joiner' extortion.

Sportsman for breakfast, Das Berliner for lunch, Patrick's for dinner ???? Stay at the Avani, it has a nice pool with a swim up bar, although it is a bit exxy.

No, it's about Bogsy's fragile eggshell mind.

I was about to suggest something like this as I saw it at my old work. Good pickup.

I'm happy for Thailand. April is a bit far away though, can't you fast track it for say, next Monday?

Relax man, it's just a little overstay, not murder.

Dude, you're arguing with a simpleton who thinks Parmesan cheese smells like vomit. You're on a hiding to nothing talking to this oxygen thief.

You know that the compressor only blows air out if you turn it on? ????

That's how it's works here so pointless getting upset about it. Unless you have a fetish for banging your hard against a spiked concrete wall.

There's a bunch of places in between those two extremes that you don't seem to know about. I only know of a couple here in the Big Smoke but I won't be sharing their names or locations. Not because I want to give the troll OP a free ride, I was just very drunk when my friends took me there at 2:00 in the morning and I have no idea where the hell they're located.

We obviously hang out in different circles. When any of my Thai friends say "let's go to a Thai restaurant" it means exactly that, a restaurant that serves a range of different Thai food and that has wait staff to run around after you. Preferably to to up your beer as soon as you've had a sip. You call that "Western style" for some reason. I'm not sure that the West ever had the monopoly on that type of place. Heck they probably got the concept from the Chinese along with gunpowder and noodles. Also the OP is either a troll or an influencer looking for a free ride so I don't know why you'd waste your time asking them about something they could have easily included in their post.

I think the guy you're quoting doesn't know about the kind of places that, IMHO, the OP is likely referring to. He mentioned 50 baht pad Thai at a mall versus "400 baht" pad Thai at an unnamed establishment. He also thinks that a 40 baht chicken rice joint is a restaurant rather than a fast food joint where you go for a quick feed and then move on so they can turn tables. That's how they make their money, not from freeloaders who sit there for an hour thinking they're the only ones that discovered the joint. I don't think he knows that there are Thais who have a decent amount of money and who patronise mid-to-exoensive Thai restaurants. I've been to many of them and I usually see other tables with big groups of Thais who prefer more dishes than you can count. it makes me jealous sometimes, especially when the head of the table pulls out a stack of greys to pay for it all ???? He also thinks that chicken rice is Thai food so I don't put much stock in his opinions.

I assumed she was talking about those big ol' restaurants where the Thais go to eat and drink. My buddy's Thai wife takes us to them whenever we are off traveling together. Chang or Singh beer towers and all sorts of weird and wonderful stuff that you rarely hear whitey talking about in here, most of them only know pad Thai and massaman curry. Certainly not for 40 baht a plate and you better being your cheque book if you're the big boss and it's your turn to pay.

You're getting negative responses because some of us think you are a troll. You all the boxes in that regard; just joined, multiple usernames posting the same topic, avatar is a picture of a decent looking girl, asking white dudes about "Thai restaurants" ????

tl;dr SIM roaming is the easiest method.
