Haha here you guys are having a whinge about your wives... & I'm just wondering what their saying to their girlfriends

" ohhhhooo! farang husband on computer again.. Thaivisa website all day.. not do nothing"

Yepp... second that about the hitman working at suvarninbhumi airport =|

@buddyguy

heeey so how DID you know it was a middle eastern guy? Before the news even came out =S

Uhhh =| awkward!

I meant their skirts are still short and they wear them(their skirts) tight

Lol I don't know what Uni you have seen this at

but at my Uni the girls who do choose to wear the skirts are still rather short and tight.

Songkhla is a nice place too live

& it's not even in the heart of all the troubles they are having in the South

even if people think and say it is believe me we dnt see any of it here in Songkhla

Songkhla is a coastal town. Right on the beach. Popular destination for Malaysians to come visit on the weekends as it's not far from the Malay border. Just a short drive to HatYai where you can find a Tops,Robinson,Central & Diana.

Songkhla also has it's shopping plazas called "Lee" there are many of them here.

As for housing. You can buy a nice 2 story house in a good neighbourhood for 2.5+mil baht.

For example the "moobaan" I live in has many foreigners and nice Thai residences. All houses are 2 story with 3 to 4 b/rooms. Our street is quiet and the neighbours are friendly

As for Schooling.. My brothers both attend an international in Songkhla & they are really enjoying it. The school has a sense of family and belonging.

All the teachers speak English very well.

We have a maid but she cannot speak English however you can find some that do who work or have worked in the houses of the offshore oil company bosses/ other "farang" houses. The maid travels on her own from

her house to yours everyday with either her own motorbike or a tuktuk.

You can also find drivers here in Songkhla, my brothers friends are usually driven to school by their parents drivers.

Ummm what else.. I'm

not sure about the whole visa thing cos Ive never done a visa before haha

um there are quite a few foreigners here in songkhla. & there people here are pretty friendly

The main religions here are bhuddist and Muslim and they both get along fine

oh and also, hat yai(songkhlas sister town) has it's own international airport so that makes travelling alot easier

Lastly

At Stamford they want you too graduate unlike at ABAC(Assumption) where they keep you so they can get more $$$

Actually at STAMFORD there are many students who had moved from ASSUMPTION
