diddums

As the photos progress she looks happier and happer...so good for you.

If she is confident enough to make the decision not to go with anyone if they come to get her, then good on her.....

I have 2 kids, one is 11yo and one 8yo....so know where you are coming from.

In regards to expensive clothes....I dare someone tell me the red leather pants I bought my missus for $400 was not worth every cent.

More info required and maybe some pics to form a opinion.

Let me go looksie....stay tuned

Maybe it was just the wrong size.

What do they think happens to all the race horses that don't make it? If anything they should be sending more of these meatballs to Asia where people won't care about eating them.

The starving in Africa might be more suited.

Jimmy Choo Woo Hoo

Who or what is it?

It's a choo choo train and Jimmy is the engineer. It goes Woo Hoo as it goes through the tunnel.

While Smoky chants...'I think I can, I think I can'

Whats the long term plan with this school and such ??

I mean you cannot be worrying about this every day.....something might happen tomorrow....or in 6 months.

As I said...I would not leave her at that school if it was my child in same situation.

But if I had to or wanted to for whatever other reasons and if I could afford it, I would hire a body guard to keep an eye on her all day....sounds and seems extreme until you think of the possible alternative...again....and if it is only for a week or 2 then not too bad, plus the cost would be well worth it.

Myself in same situation could not let it happen again for want of not going to a few extreme measures.

Anyway...best of luck with it all whatever happens.

I bet they onsell them all out the back door to the push cart guys.....like they would care what they sell and like most thais would care what they eat.

Is anybody else jealous reading this thread or is it only just me? :-)

To me it's not jealousy but pure admiration. Very cool story.

.

Not at all....its just different...still adventures to be had.

Well diddums it is a Samui specific question so fair enough hes asking you where you found it.

Some interesting comments on the wikipedia page

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_pest_control

Post #2 asked re its effectiveness.

He did not state where it was not effective....if he said it was only not effective in samui, then fair enough.

2 people appreciated the answer....even some PM's asking about them....so why you feel the need to butt in ?

I did mention 'elsewhere'.

I bought 2 from homepro...but elsewhere...circa 700b each.

Work very well, no return of rats since turning it on.

How long ago was this. Was there yesterday and told "No have" end of story!

Note I said 'but elsewhere'....I do not live in Samui.

I was replying simply re the use of the electronic device.

Just a thought for the OP

Maybe she sold the house in Thailand to pay for her ticket back to the UK, where she is currently filing for divorce in your absence, due to desertion.

It's what I would do. if I were her.

cunning.... mischievous....nasty....creative

No, but a friend has stayed there and he had very good things to say.

I treat a hotel as just somewhere to sleep. Usually I am there to do other things in the area and just go back there to rest for a moment or to sleep late.

So for that use, it is a useful and nice comfortable place, I saw the place when my flend stay there, he took me back there one night, I did not have to pay a joiner fee.

Unless of course you are going to a resort hotel then that is different.

It is about the destination, not the bed.

It is Swiss owned....it runs like a precision watch.

ok....Copied precision watch...

Find a way to find the way.

Yes, love hammoks but sometimes sitting in one of those suspended basket chairs has the same relaxing feeling along with the kind of security feeling that you are in your own little world and what's outside has no effect on you. I just kind of feel secure sitting in them.

Couldn't the etymology from your post be assigned to, the feeling everyone has experienced being a fetus in mummy's stomach, when she went to the market whilst carrying you inside her..?

You mean frustration right....all the toys n shit you could see....but could not get your hands on yet.

Are you suggesting I'm stalking you??? Nah... too lazy! I's be happy swinging in a hammock, but it'd take too much effort to hang one.....and it'd be too darned cold here!!

On the contrary, I am suggesting i feel comfortable with you being here.

OH <deleted>!!!!! Now the rumours are gonna start flying thick and fast.....

EDIT: We'd better find a bigger hammock

You had better watch out Street Cowboy will be along shortly for swearing like that.

He gave me a right bollocking for it in another fred...and I diddn even start it.

Make sure you have all the documents with you...in thai

Pay a couple of police to come with you and collect him....not local ones......just walk in and let them say what they have to say and you collect the child and leave.

Surgical strike we used to call it in special ops.

Actually I'm thinking long term here ... but does/has anyone dug an in-ground tank and made that part of their slab and then used the dirt removed to raise their dwelling above the natural ground level.

Building on the higher ground (might only be 300 mil ... but that could make the difference) after the fill has been 'seasoned'.

Just tossing round ideas for a build in a few years time.

Its costly....think swimming pool without the trimmings....however does not have to be engineered to the same level...but still costly.

But having said that, we may be doing that shortly....we shall be digging a huge pond that shall surround the house.

We bought 2+ Rai in 2008, genuinely thinking we'd live there in a few years time. It has changed so much - the peaceful place has now become "commercialised trash" (the words of someone living there). So, we sold in 2011 making a 73% return.

I think it's overpriced and set for a price "re-allignment" but who knows?

There's plenty of other nice, up and coming places to invest that have not yet peaked.

You must have bought it really high..or sold it really low if you only made 73%.

Perhaps next time someone is threatened by the op....they might do the same.

Give it space and it would have disapeared.

Hero.

Maybe thats why he used the name annonymouse.

How about some context?

What'dya mean ?

Just need another word that has a similar meaning to Beyond, endless, lots of it, goes forever, and so on.

But must start with B

<deleted> you've had correct answers which you've ignored. There are no more.

Fix up, look sharp. Or go back to school.

<deleted> wake up....they are not suitable as mentioned.

The only one that comes close was 'boundless' but that is not quite right.

'Beyond' is the perfect word, but cannot use that as taken.

There's really no need for obscenity, even in abbreviation. People are trying to be helpful, and it appears you are trying to be abusive.

Perhaps a more appropriate forum - given your temper, perhaps a cross word forum would be the place to ask
