  1. I paid a bride price, had a ceremony Thai style, and all that. But I am unable to get her family out of my pocket for some reason.

    Divorce her. Hang on! Scratch that!

    Grow a pair and then divorce her.

    I've no sympathy for farangs who marry into low-class Thai families thinking it's love.

    :o

    What's wrong with low class ?

    They are also humans and can fall in and feel and give love

    They are also humans.

    <deleted> does that mean?

  2. not a full 60 seconds after I said never mind she brings up the idea to give her father 2000 usd to start a pig farm. Me being the dumb ass I am said OK (because I am thinking if I help them get a business going it will be less dough I will have to shell out in the future).

    My advice to guys that get asked for money for the family's business ventures - fish farming, pig farming, buffalo raising etc - ask the family for the 1 year projected profits, how long it will take to break even, the proposed repayment for the loan(ie how much per month), the costs ON PAPER of all the overheads and starting stuff. This is not at all much to ask for, if they are serious. In my experience, every single time the family has not done this, never to ask again. This points out to the guys that they are not serious at all about starting a business to make money - there is possibly a gullible farang in the family and they would be stupid not to try and find out. Of course, if the farang turns out to say, 'yes, tee rak, ok', he will be hassled and his life will be miserable from now on. OP, don't be such a <deleted>.

    How many of you guys send financial aid to your families back in the western world?

    I APPLAUD YOU COS............. I'VE NEVER BEEN GAME ENOUGH TO ASK THAT QUESTION!!!!!

    ANYONE GAME ENOUGH TO ANSWER IT??

    I don't. It is not expected. In Thailand I get crap wages that would mean I could only send to my folks about £50 at the most a month which is nothing in the UK.

    50 quid extra is a heI_lluva lot.

    May not be expected.

    :o

  4. You know what...? I'm sorry, but I think it sucks that farangs are expected to support their wife's family. The family extends from 2 to how many?????

    Come on! Not fair! Give us a break......

    I have NEVER expected a man to support me (as a western woman) and I find it highly offensive that western men are expected to support an ENTIRE extended family in this country.

    What's the story? You guys are being taken for a RIDE - GROW UP!!!!!!!!!!

    I quoted this post because I wonder............

  5. farang people always say ..thai girls have  long straight hair.. look boring

    i wanna  change my looked..but im not sure its good or not  to have  curl :o

    Are you considering a perm?

    If not use some of the many electric hair curling products on the market.

    Try putting loads of pigtails into your hair.then put the pigtails into sponge rollers over night. Not very glamorous

    This works best when sleeping alone :D The result is nice wavy hair :D:D

  6. PB and CP guys you must learn to cook.

    Source stock cubes from a western supplier the asian ones will be more spicy.

    Basic dried herbs or grow your own thyme, rosemary, basil. etc

    Olive oil and plain old corn oil for frying

    plain flour and corn flour

    Gravy powders (Bisto)

    All the above will add western flavours to your locally grown raw ingredients.

    If you can, get an electric food steamer This is a brilliant gadget much better then a microwave oven.

  7. Just out of bed, I've fed the cat, got to walk the dog yet. The Bloke is playing Flight sim' an he's nekkid as a jaybird. :o

    Got the usual phone calls to make, daughter in Ireland, son in Switzerland.

    Then the veg's have to be prepared, turkey cooked, dessert prepared. Then I'll dish the whole lot up. Eat and drink too much and generally veg out.

  8. I got a Commodore 64 box :o

    Are you kidding? That would be an AWESOME present. If you don't want it, sell it to me, I'd happy kick around on a Commodore 64 again. Remind me of my youth and all.

    Unless, of course, you just got the box with nothing in it.....

    Me, I don't get to open presents today (or tomorrow) because my wife won't be back from the tsunami ceremony until the 27th.

    Sucks for me. Lonely holiday... :D

    Two 6 4's in a cupboard.

    The box contained books :D
