If you drink to relieve boredom then life will be a struggle.

Try solitaire  -  or masturbating.

If I'm not mistaken, the word 'Neụ̄̂x' means 'meat'.... in much the same manner when in other parts of the world and we have a 'meat kebab' it can be lamb or beef, or a mixture of both....  perhaps that translation has some similar etymological basis...  

 

That said: In Thailand.. 'Neụ̄̂x' is commonly used to refer to beef, but there can be exceptions... 

 

But for certain... 'Neụ̄̂x' Steak...  does not specifically mean 'Fillet Steak' regardless of what google translate will tell you !!!!... 

 

 

Google didn't say 'fillet'  -  only the above poster.

You order pad krappow nua  , the only meat you will get is beef

Google agrees with me  .......'beef steak':-

เนื้อวัว

Neụ̄̂x wạw

Show me a link that might prove that. Word of mouth here, or anywhere for that matter, means nothing. People have their own agendas as far as commenting on other women here. many have been burned and think all women are greedy whores. My ex here was a real narcissist, a liar and disturbed, mainly because of her childhood. Doesn't mean I think all women here are bad. "Servicing" Thai males leads to nothing but being used, and a lot already know this. I would think the majority of girls going to a University don't bother much with men here. Furthering their education is a main reason not to rely on someone who won't stay after a child is born, nor help out financially. Most girls are attracted to boys, but smart ones won't waste their time when trying to have a better future for themselves.

So Naive.

That's saying all Thai women are into getting money from boyfriends? How much do you think locals give for an allowance here? This one is a student, and not all students pay their way sleeping around with farangs. Some have families that actually do the part of parenting , are in two parent households, and help their kids further their education. When a woman has had kids already with a local that left town, and they had to raise the kids themselves or with help from grandma, those are the ones that will hope they find someone who will help them out, as is the case with many of us here that help support a girlfriend. Yes, there are many that feed off of farangs that don't live here, and send them money, and the plethora of greedy bar girls and women who won't work. This again, is a student, so give them the benefit of the doubt, and stop assuming the worse. She might be a keeper, or not. In time he will find out.

I am not sure why you only refer to Farangs.

More Thai students earn money from servicing Thai males than Farangs.

Why would I muddy the waters even further by throwing an allowance in the the equasion? 

OK, let's for a moment consider the possibility that you are not a troll.

If you don't pay her an 'allowance' somebody else will

Lol, you think the whole family would go as far as to put on a whole fake show? They've never received a cent from me and in 3 months I've spent maybe 4000b on her?

Wow!

I think that she has certainly found a "keeper".......

C'mon, you're being logical now, that does not go down well with the AN ranters and ill-informed speculators!

Logic....or fantasy?

In Thailand it is a thin dividing line.

OK, pedantically, Wise take your GBP (or other currency) calculate how much you are to get and advise/instruct their Thai agent (Bangkok Bank, Kasikorn, or whatever) to send XX,XXX THB to your account, unless you specifically request that no conversion be done before arrival in your account (eg Foreign Currency Account).

Accuracy is not pedantry.

You cannot request conversion. WISE will remit the currency you hold to a bank account of your choice.....that bank account denomination (Thai Baht, US Dollars etc) will determine what currency you receive.

Wise always issue the money in THB, therefore getting a Credit Advice from the receiving bank should not be any different.

WISE don't transfer Baht. Their agent in Thailand does  -  hence making it a domestic transfer.

Scots, Taffies and Paddies also eat the aforementioned fish, so British would be more appropriate. 

Australian's like their fish...............

The problem with frozen fish is that it freezes/cooks down to almost half it's frozen weight. I have found cod bought in Thailand to be tough.

I would find a place that does good fish of your choice and ask who supplies them. Transporting frozen food across Thailand is rarely an issue. 

Here is an example of a price list:-

Most of them never drank wine anyway.

True. But I would have encouraged them towards 13/14% abv wine with lower taxes/prices to wean them off the 40% gut rot. Most are alcoholics and simply top anyway - better they do it with lower alcohol content.

How do these Thai have so much money? Lottery winnings? Rice field sale? Or the other more obvious way... corruption. 

Thaksin's accumulation of wealth is well documented.

Some good business deals, some dodgy deals - some outright corrupt. Must have Chinese good fortune as he made a shed load when selling Manchester City (after being deemed by the FA to be an unsuitable owner).

"Thaksin, who made a £120m profit by selling City, may now try to sell his remaining 10% stake in the club as tries to build a new life – he is reported to be building a £5.5m property in China – and fight Thailand's extradition procedures"
