    Some people can be happy anywhere they are.

    Some people can not be happy no matter where they are.

    Thailand brings out the best of both.

    #2 is clearly obvious even though it may piss him right off (but I think that will please you).

     

    Post #19 put it pretty succinctly about the head stitches. Ouch !

    #2 good choice ????  >> Do you really think that it would p*ss him off?

    This has been going on for over a year and now your asking? 

    Every suggestion made  you've tried.

    Except the "walk away and live to fight another day" yet thats kinda what you've been doing for a year now. Park it under the bridge.????

     

    Well I have parking issues ???? at several of my houses too. 

    The problem went away for about 1 yr and it's back again now ????

    Good that you're taking the replies in the right spirit. To elaborate on your original question "what to do in case of assault?", first thing would be to go to the hospital and have your head wound stitched up, as any altercation would likely result in you being bottled from behind by one of the restaurant owner's lackeys. Thais are notorious for not fighting fair, and walking away from a situation even when the other party is clearly in the wrong in no way marks you as a pussy. 

    Cheers ???? also what is the best course of re/action when I meet this gent next time? 
    1. Smile
    2. Ignore
    3. Nut'em?? (Bad idea?)

    4. etc?

    I want to thank everyone for their input. It has been very helpful. Some of the better comments have had a real impact on my way of thinking. I just wanted to say, thanks, everyone. 

     

    Have you identified the general patterns that would enable you to take action? 

    Might be an idea to listen to a few podcasts by Tony Robbins. 

    Also there is a great isolation tank in CM that might help you with thinking about the issue (and filter out the bad advice)

    sorry if im being a bit thick, what so special about LOS ? thx

    LOL

    Of the 195 countries in this world there are

    Only 33 Countries UK Passport Holders Need a Visa in Advance 
    But most of us prefer to live here (Not saying that has anything to do with booze, sex or sun)

    so LOS must be special?

    This advice is 100% correct - by not entering into the infantile game of losing face you already reveal yourself to be the bigger man. Park a bit further away, let the idiot think he's won. Choose your fights wisely, this shouldn't be one of them. 

     

    Choose your fights wisely   >> Cheers ???? I really need to focus on this. Not the first time I've been adviced to "Choose your fights wisely". I guess it's all about the 80/20 Pareto principle.

    Is this the most important thing that's happened to you today - someone moving your m/c?

     

    Be adult about it, & move your m/c to a place that doesn't inconvenience anyone, allows other people to park, & doesn't cause childish confrontation.

     

    In short. Grow up!

     

    :smile:

    Nope I think for the whole week ????  or maybe the whole month! I am bored!

    >>> I think I will ditch the m/c and walk, I do inconvenience the Thai drivers and riders, especially when they are dither ????

     

    In short. Grow up!

    HOW?

    Easier said than done! change the habits of a lifetime? ????

    What's wrong with being a p*ussy?

    It beats the ass off being dead.

     

    No disrespect meant but I see that you are fairly new to TVF. Keep reading. It is a great resource to help learn "how the wheels turn" in Thailand.

    Get into a fight; it won't be one on one. Probably more like 5 on you.

    Park elsewhere. Enjoy the reasons you are in Thailand. Live and let live, a good rule for any foreigner (like me).

    >> Never been perceptive enough to fit into any culture/country that I ever lived in ????

    >>> Probably 10 excluding the Burmese staff ????

    >>> Maybe that's the whole point, I have become bored of LOS! kind of difficult to see (or remember) the reasons for the 7+ yrs of extended holiday in LOS
