  1. That is not correct I am afraid, be careful when in Europe if you have that idea .
  2. As I said before , in many european countries that tale you gave would not leave you without being prosecuted for soliciting sexual services in the situation the men were found in a suspected brothel as described in the Bangkok bar .
  3. You could also try Sweden , Iceland , Ireland , France and also Israel even though it is not Europe.
  4. You could try Norway . Drinking with prostitutes in the setting we were discribed the law would say the men were soliciting for sexual services
  5. The men found in the premises having drinks with the ladies were not arrested . In many countries in Europe the men would be prosecuted and the women receive no charges .
  6. I use my own observations that conflict with your forbes survey. One factor that may keep the official statistics low here in Thailand is the lack of inforcement , plus many cases of drink driving would not reach the courts .
  7. Sad maybe , yet the fact remains more people drive drunk in Thailand and not just the natives.
  8. Wilmour never received anything like that from Fred
  9. The problem with a safe is that a thief knows where to start looking . If the Canadian had put the money under the mattress he would of been awakened as the two ladies of the night took a bo-peep. It is possible that the guest will claim on his travel insurance. Money under the mattrese would not make a successful claim. It could be why there was a generous payment for the two ladies.
  10. Don't invite me for Tea
  11. Because the immigration check if you had the cash when using an agent . If not your application is rejected.
  12. You are stuck with them if you never have the funds . As I just tried to explain , i used an agent one year as i was short of the 800 t . The next year I had the funds bit had to go one more year using the same agent to obtain the extension myself the following year .
  13. I do not agree as i had first hand experiance of obtaining an extension after using an agent . When immigration saw that I used an agent previously they checked to see if i had funds for that year . If i did not have the funds they would of refused my application. Applicants can only go from an agent to doing the work themselves if they had the funds . That is why I went for one more year using agents after having had advice from Mr Ubon Joe .
  14. One problem is when you want to stop using the agent if you never qualified for the funds as the immigration will demand to see you had the funds . Only way if possible is to use the agent one more time using the required funds and the following year apply your self at immigration.
  15. What ever quality of house you decide on I recommend using hardwood door frames that can not be eaten by termites. The cost of the frames are three times the price of the normal hardwood used in the cheaper option. We have changed four door frames in a space of 12 years due to termite damage. You dont know the termites are there in the frame until the door fails at the hinges. A very messy job to replace the frames. Mai Daeng is the name of the hardwood i replaced the frames with.
  16. 12000 baht a square meter would be a basic Thai style home. 20 to 25000 will give you a more western standard home.
  17. Thank you for your compliment, yet I think your head needs urgent attention
  18. I think most of us retired and living in Thailand fit in your Your appraisal of flyguy.
