i thought people living in the area could help me as im in the uk it would be a bit of a job to just go and take a peek at the bar and pretty expensive i stated that the bar was in khon kaen and as there seems to be a few members who live there i was asking for there opinion ive talked to the bar owner allready but im not going to rely totally on what he tells me, ive got a mate in saraburi who can put down a deposit for me if i decide to take things further im just doing some research

theres a bar for sale in khon kaen called the go bar anybody been to this bar its on the bangkok road near the khon kaen uni, please let me know what its like if you have been as im intrested in buying it,

everybody likes a kebab must be spicy though and garlic mayo

just cut your losses and run and remember what goes round. Dont be heart broken learn from this and move on theres plenty more fish in the sea and when you catch the right one youll know all the tricks if she trys it on. Good luck mate

chicken kebabs seem to be all the rage in the tourist hot spots in pattaya you cant go more the 50 feet without bumping into a kebab cart theres even a couple in korat. Could this be a nice little earner for some of you chicken farmers at 50 to 60 bt a kebab. Ive seen plenty of thais eat kebabs in pattaya and more and more thais seem to enjoy western food.

just a thought please feel free to pour scorn on this suggestion

i was told to wait until the rice was being harvested to get a good price on cattle as most farmers are busy cutting the rice and the cows cannot be let out to roam while the farmers harvest rice

last cow i bought for the mrs old man cost me 22500 bt it was 9 months old and its a fawn colour with great big long ears like a rabbit the old boy selling it wanted 30000 bt but i bid him down, the cow i bought is more of a pet than an animal for meat hence the price, my wife has told me many times that her dad has been offered a lot more money for the cow than i paid for it some time this year it should be ready to breed so fingers crossed. im not in the habit of buying her old man cows but hed been really good to me in the past and my 2 daughters fell in love with it so i treated him.

many a man has had dreams of starting a life with his thai partner and most think they have found the perfect girl many claim there girl never worked in a bar. The biggest problem facing a thai falang relationship is the cultural difference, i have myself been married for over 11 years to a thai lady from a village just outside of korat we have 2 loverly girls aged 4 and 9 our relationship is allways up and down.

my wife wants to live in thailand and plans to go back in december with the kids, i have thought about working and investing in the farm there but i cant see it working out i also thought about working four months in england then a month in thailand so on so on but even then i dont know if it will work, what im thinking of doing is either buy a bar and run it myself either in hua hin or pattaya or nong khai let the wife run the farm with her dad using her own money [fat chance] or just washing my hands of her and go back to that beer loving pattaya freak i used to be before i met the wife. i have many friends in england who have a thai mrs and no matter who you ask rich or poor they all agree one thing thai women are hard ucking work financialy and emotionaly ,, im lucky in one respect my wife is house proud and keeps the house tidy but some of my mates thai wives are just plain lazy and there house looks like a bad day in bosnia, so my advice to you my friend is if you have no kids just dump the wife sell the pigs if you can and go out and enjoy yourself if you feel youve been duped then join a club thats bigger than the masons.

i do not mean to paint all thai women with the same brush there are some really nice thai ladies out there

and hard working ones at that, what im trying to explain is the cultural differance food, religion, the thai family allways coming first

AMAZING THAILAND

thanks for the advice i will think further on what to do i learnt one lesson i bought 3 cows and could not beleive how much grass these animals get through im lucky my wifes dad looks after them while im in the uk

im considering taking andys advice and start small and see how i go with pigs again thankyou all for your input

i hope to start a small scale farm next year, i will be raising chickens ducks fish and pork all small scale to see whats profitable i have 12 rai of land thats used for rice i will use 1 rai for farming to start.

1] how much would a good incubator cost

2] i hope to raise about 30 pigs to start how much would a sty cost

3] what is the best fish to farm ie profit and easy to keep

4] i see some guys are raising turkeys is there a market for them?

5] are geese kept as pets or is there a market for there meat eggs ect

hope theres not to many questions, if what i hope to farm seems a lot im only trying to see what works for me and is profitable.

from what ive read on the farming forum there seems to be a market for chicks as there only seems to be a few farmers you can trust so maybe thats the way to go?

thanks for reading my post all comments and advice welcome good or bad
