  1. Hello,First house I had built for set price which was good value but workmanship not so good,basic structure ok just a few things way out of square. 2nd home will cost a little bit more than I was quoted by a few Consultants just to run/design home. Unless you are there 24/7 I think you would need a Builder. All up it was a bit of a nightmare but a great experience. A big problem was what I wanted done wouldn,t be translated the way I spoke, as my Interpreter didn,t want to offend workers when I complained about shoddy skills, My massive roof will need to be half dismantled as they never lined up roof tiles so ridge caps dont fit,they just bogged it up with grey cement on cream tiles, didnt even clean where they over filled gaps. All thought why am I upset about it. i looked around at new homes nearby and was the same. At least It wont cost the earth to fix, hoping 100000bt and will be miles in front rather than pay for Builder at their quotes for farang. Good Luck. Coolthaihouse.com good site

  2. I dont think their would be a problem if she left on her Thai Passport,my child arrived with foriegn Pasport and left with a Thai Passport no questions asked. But you never know,i took her to Cambodia and Thai Imm couldn,t be bothered to stamp her out.Crossed over got visa entry stamp,visa exitstamp came back to Thai entry and told where is Child stamp,I told them Thai guy said Mai mee pen ha he looked around then ushered us through mai mee pen ha.I love this place.

  3. You can put your fears to rest. We did away with rope parties many years ago.

    Given American history, and current performance, it's a bit difficult to have faith in your last sentence.

    Especially given the postscript you choose.

    "If liberals were as smart as they claim to be, they would be conservatives. "

    You might not like it, but there is another world out there, bigger than America.

    And they don't all agree with you either. There are a lot of people and a lot of countries who would be happy for Assange to meet an early end. And as is often the case, they are waiting for the USA to do it so they can remain blameless.

    A lot of people in a lot of countries, where did you read that? I suppose a lot of countries have vested interests in keeping the truth from the people and Julian is one and certainly not the last to stand up to those greedy,murdering vested interests. The world will be a better place when the plebs wake up but I dont think it will happen for many a day.what say you?
  4. police.

    You feel sorry for my family, why.

    Because your family may be in danger thanks to lowlife drug dealers you know.

    very true especially if he reads this so back to the question what to do. Thats It from me, Enjoy.
  5. A property deal ??!!

    So what would be the catalyst for this smack dealer to make good on his threat?

    Has he given you some sort of ultimatum to get your friend to settle what he feels he may have lost?

    Frankly, you know the guy from back home. Only you know if he'd really do what he's threatened so if you think there's a very real likelihood that either he or one of his "employees" is going to step to you intent on doing you bodily harm, you have two choices:

    1. Leave whichever part of Thailand you're living in and never return - (Recommended)

    2. Serve him first and leave no loose ends (Not recommended unless you can live with it)

    Can't see someone getting smoked over such an indirect connection to a legitimate business transaction so I'd not lose any (more) sleep over it but, as I said, you know him

    I,ve done the first one and life is brillant out in the sticks and ya right I do know him and even though he,s a biggen his heart as probably not, one of the best advice,s so far I reckon
  6. crap, but any way 2 things,

    1: birds of a feather flock together.

    2: if you go looking for trouble and you find it and can`t handle it, don`t go crying to the cops, you found it you handle it.....

    want to hang around with a bunch of crims and pretend to be tough, go and get another tough sticker on your arm, that will make you super tough then i am sure............

    That is total crap, my chickens and ducks get along fine,Where am I looking for trouble,I have been threatened and wondered how others would handle it. I dont hang about with crims and pretend to be tough so your aspersion is up shit creek

    not real smart i do believe, chicken and ducks are not of the same feather, i have also had pigs and dogs that were good mates, i think drug sellers/users are crims, but that is only my say so, you came asking for a bit of advice, i just gave what was taught to me at a very young age is all, but i wish you well and hope we don`t read about you.......,d

    Thank you. This isnt happening now but is still a conundrum as the threat did happen and I wanted a few other views on other people ways of dealing with it .If I went to self defense classes I punch some sense into the slimey bastard instead of telling and paying one of the Lads.There are many options no doubt.

  8. I find it difficult to understand why someone would get involved with a 'Farang smack smuggler' in the first place crazy.gif

    What are you saying, Knowing someone and working for someone is not the same. Is that the part difficult to unnerstand.
  9. On the other hand have family in Immigration at Ranong, Mae Sot, Mae Hong Song (Police) and Chiang Rai.

    I very much doubt it. I have close family in the police force here and can tell you that there is no way the police, especially Immigration that have nothing to do with the serious crime squads, would ever become involved or become your henchman and also taking into consideration that no crime has yet been committed. Sorry, but you’re either living in a fantasy world or have been watching too many movies and if you have known and got involved with all those criminals, than it appears that you have been mixing with the wrong crowds.

    Perhaps Columbia Pictures Industries may be interested in taking this up as a movie? Mae Hong Son Immigration Vs Thai mafia followed by the sequel, The Revenge of the Mae Sot Avengers.

    Unfortunately there is no fantasy world and I think a movie about expats lives in Thailand would be a best seller. Dont feel sorry for me I live my life and the question is shall I do a Bushie or not.
  10. I find it difficult to understand why someone would get involved with a 'Farang smack smuggler' in the first place crazy.gif

    I know the guy from back home and knowing some of his friends in BKK I learnt that he has no problem with making brass anyway he can. Remember so and so with the diamond claim who got 99 years for smack well the prick had organised that and blames Julian for taking the risk. same for boiler room types ergo if your foolish enough to believe thats your problem. I like the reply he,ll get his and dont get involved but the implied threat was he,d see me dead. We all know bad people.
  11. I have lived here on and off and have met plenty of so called people smugglers, passport visa scammers ,users and abusers,most of the people smugglers,boiler room low lifes seem to have run out of business and need money to stay which means either go home and work or suck in green tourists and make money off them. My problem is that I know of a Farang smack smuggler who has threatened my life and promised me he has connections at the Airport to make my life bad. I on the other hand have family in Immigration at Ranong, Mae Sot,Mae Hong Song(Police) Chiang Rai which said Farang knows nothing about. Do I do a George Bush and get in first or wait and see if hes like alot of people. all talk. I have lost sleep over this threat and am confused about ratting on someone,especially if he puts two and two together.

  12. Yeah you have a pretty sharp and fast mouth, hey I'm a believer, collecting your dog's sh*t is completely normal, thinking of trying myself, any tips on bags, handling, massage or technique?

    Since you asked, I will help you out. If you have one dog, the simplest way to do this is not with a bag, but instead with a large leaf or a sheet from a broad sheet newspaper folder up. As the dog goes down for his dump, you place the paper or leaf under the drop zone, poo lands on it, you wrap it up and throw it in the bin. Job done. This is very easy indeed and quite clean as well. As I am walking more than one, this is complicated as I might get pulled off target by the other two and get a hand full.

    Next option is a carrier bag from Big C. Roll up the edges like an unused condom and place that in the drop zone or scoop it up once it has hit.

    I buy by the hundred the small food bags in the markets and use them though, wrapping my hand in the bag, lifting the poop, and knotting the bag well as sometimes I am disposing it in the bin, and I would not like the gypos who scavenge through the bins to get a handful of shit.

    Fairly straight forward. As a chap who does not like dog poo, I would have thought you would be pleased someone is picking it up instead of leaving it everywhere.

    I live on the Ping and cleaned quite a large area directly in front of the house, dog poo, plastic bags, house hold rubbish as the village decided not to have the bin man come. all smiled and thought I was odd. No sooner cleared then more of the same. Because we are not resident full time what better place to chuck everything. Paradise for some but I dont sweat on it,when I return I,ll clean it up and keep on till I cark it. I love my village and the people who make it and count myself very lucky to have wedded my Thai wife and moved to her village with all the mainly ups and downs, shits on the west.

  13. Took a Google search to see what HDY was ? hat yai in Southern Thailand.

    Can't say I ever been that far, only to Phuket. So, somebody, clue me in, what would one do there for a few days holiday ?

    Gidday, been lots of time to Hat Yai as its a quick visa run to Malaysia. not much in the Town but the coastal area gets a good write up.
  14. Sorry about Passengers but such is life, These vans are at high speed are deathtraps and sliding roof first into a tree with or without belts is such a waste. If you get a chance see how they make Bus frames, small thin square tube with welds that are never smooth and even, bit like bird shit. Train it if you,ve time.

  15. I had contact for what it was worth with our Consul in Bali. She came to visit me on the 23Dec asking me did We have TV etc and promising treats for Chrissy in two days time.I didnt hear from them till early Feb, when they were visiting a Kiwi, So if ya call that help than help is the wrong word. Tv what a laugh no clean water, reduced food(Scam), beatings, 10 to a cell,no probs. But getting my hopes up for Chrissy surprize must be a Diplomats inside joke. I expect Julian knows what Im on about.

  16. Ethedrine in Medicine can be turned into speed which can be bought illegally all over the place, but you can go to any Chemist in LOS and buy as many Synthetic Opium pain killers as they have in stock. I think it better not to name the product but it is the way Docs in Oz have agreed to treat a lot of perscription pain killer bludgers.

  17. OZ ABC news tonight said our American Ambassador has been told that the yanks want Julian and that could they inform us discretely before they make their move. The whole world is going crazy when the Oz Labour Government supports the Capitalists blindly like the Libs did with Oz citizen David Hicks and leave one of our people to go it alone. I know when i had a problem in Indo they really couldn,t give a rats arse and had me down for jail then extradition to jail in OZ. I paid a bribe(baksheesh) and left.
