What would you tell your 18yo self?
NoshowJones replied to Sparktrader's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Yes, but that was in 1965, about five years later I changed it for a Fender Precision. -

When I frst started playing professionally at 18, my first Bass was a Gibson EB4, it was a great bass guitar to play, but lacked the good looks of the Fender Jazz, Precision and Mustang. -

I believe you are talking about Thai people, so yes! You are 100% right. -

I go out on my bike, pushbike, every day for exercise and nearly every day I have to avoid motorcyclists riding up the wrong side of the road, pulling out in front of me without looking etc. The thing is when I shout at them they are that stupid they don't realise that they are in the wrong and they shout back with their faces twisted in anger. The daily amount of motorcyclist deaths and injuries on the road backs me up when I go on about the stupidity of the majority of Thai people, and yes, I mean the majority. -
An Australian I was talking to some years ago would sum up what this post is all about. I certainly would not like to live in Australia the way it is today. Here in Thailand I have known quite a few Australians over the years and have never met an undesirable one, the same would apply to Americans, pity the same could not be said about a very small minority of European and British people.

Don't mind cats and squirrels, but I hate wind and rain in that order.

Not in Scotland, I was there May, June and July,had to wear a hoody every time I went out, about 90% of the time it was up. Not a lot of rain, but windy just about every day. In saying that, the rain has been dreadful here in Thailand ever since I came back.

Are you a retiree? Do you travel out of the country anytime? Are you a tourist under 50 who wants to stay long time in Thailand? If you are a retiree who just lives a quiet life in Thailand then I don't suppose it will bother you too much even if the next Thai adult who walks past your house becomes the next PM, he/she will probably have much the same mentality.

Gilbert O'Sullivan was dreadful, terrible voice and song writing ability. How he had any hits I just cannot understand. "Oh Wakka doo Wakka day?? What does that mean?? Is that what one would call song writing ability?? As for his singing, I've heard a better noise flushing the toilet.

Doesn’t the TAT want tourists here in Thailand?

The unelected PM and his junta spring to mind again. -
Probably, the unelected PM will have his soldiers and guns at the ready.

Are there any properly qualified sparkies in Isaan? I live in central Thailand in a small town, my wife has lived in it all her life, she only knows one sparkie and he is always busy, so in the meantime the main sockets in the kitchen are not working so when anyone in the house is cooking I have run a junction box from another outlet in the kitchen to the cooking area. Fortunately we have a bottled gas cooker. It would seem that qualified sparkies are very few and far between in Thailand.
