  1. If you find that annoying how about the single mom or family who bring there kids to a restaurant to play like they are at the playground screaming and bumping into your table and this is at a decent restaurant you are supposed to be ok with this sort of behavior. I get up and leave with money on the table.
  2. Thai neighborhood. I find the Expats not very friendly. Thai people are much easier to talk too.
  3. If they can’t behave they should be deported. Everyone thinks they can come to Thailand and be ass holes. They can’t do this in there on country but in Thailand it’s acceptable and easy to just pay a fine. And keep doing it. It ruins Thailand for everyone else.
  4. I think that if you don’t have the skill to speak English to the Foreigners then you shouldn’t be waiting on them. Hospitals and dentists included. I always ask for a English speaking person to deal with and if they don’t have any I go elsewhere, there are plenty of people who speak English in Thailand.
  5. No one is talking about the current mess with Social Security in the US. Has everyone set up their online ID as Musk ask us to do? We are in our 80’s don’t use the computer and we have no clue how to set up this online ID. We are told that if you don’t have it set up soon you will lose your monthly income. We do have back up income but we rely mostly on our SS from the US. Every month I worry about are we going to get our automatic deposit. Patrick
  6. It is not a complete language and many of the words can be used many times but not meaning the same which makes speaking very difficult, many words sound the same but have different meanings, some which are impolite. To much frustrations, and difficulty. Not worth it. So only use basic language skills, like ordering food, hello, goodbye, thank You, where’s the bathroom, and so forth. Been here 12 years and get around very easy.
  7. There aren’t any in Thailand.
  8. What’s stopping you. We have a beach condo there that we rent. Love that area, it’s still rural, farm land community but now has a few hidden restaurants scattered around a very big wet market & Makro. You still have to drive to Hua Hin for hospitals and upscale restaurants. No tourists so far in Cha Am and thats how I like it. Patrick
  9. The 60’s were a Great time. Am a native born California boy but after retirement we couldn’t afford to live there any longer so we moved to Thailand been living here since 2012. Am sure glad am not living there now. Or even in the US to watch my country being destroyed.
  10. It’s all about Manners and Consideration for others, Thai people do not have either of these qualities.
  11. Are any American Expats worried Trump will stop there retirement income? He’s headed for that next step. He will destroy the SS system and Americans won’t have money to live on anymore. We have our savings but it won’t last forever. A reverse mortgage may be in our future.
  12. These people must of all be looking at their phones. I spend my whole life in Thailand looking down to prevent myself from getting hurt or worst. Holes are everywhere and hazards are what Thailand is all about. Sad but could had been prevented if only you look before you step.
  13. Hua Hin is getting crowded these days and they have to many tourists arriving everyday. But Cha Am is about 10-15 minutes away and it’s more country style living no tourist yet, half of dozen decent restaurants, wet market, chicken & pork market, nice beaches with few people, but for big shopping you have to take a trip to Hua Hin, there is a Makro in Cha Am though. We like living there because it’s quiet and relaxing. Patrick
  14. What kind of air purifiers are you using? I can’t find an answer to what air purifier is best. People in Thailand just want to sell you the most expensive ones.
  15. Villa Market, Robbie’s, accidental butcher and more.
