TL; DR
Well, not all of it, but the 'Do you love me?', 'Yes, I love you' lines were a bit of a giveaway.
'Shall we eat together', 'No, got to go to work' .............
......... or he could be her brother (as they talk about mom a lot).
IMHO definitely banging each other.
Just confirmed by girlfriend, this is a conversation between two lovers having a bit of a tiff.

Not being able to export any of it's agricultural products might become a bit of a problem.
There's only so much storage space for your expensive rice (et al) that nobody will buy.

chery chery = เฉยๆ
If you're not sure of the spelling try talking into 'Google translate' app on your smartphone.
It often gets the right spelling, although the translation is often wrong.

I flew Air Asia from Don Muang last week to Nakhon Phanom.
There were 3 people in front of me at a self service machine, and it took 20 minutes to get to the front, as they kept pressing the wrong buttons. I think once you have used them once you are ok the next time, but can be a bit daunting first time.
3 pairs of shorts, undies, socks, t-shirts and wear long trousers, shirt and jacket onto the plane.
If you wash everything in your hotel sink once during your trip, why would you need to take any more?

I watched the movie while blindfold in an attempt to convince myself that a 54-year-old woman could play the part of a 30-year-old pregnant woman in a realistic way.
Didn't we have a movie last year with creatures that killed anyone making a sound?
We've had 'see no evil' and 'speak no evil', now we just need 'hear no evil' for a full set of movies.

It is fears of global trade wars and its possible effects that are causing the current volatility.
That doesn't explain why only the Thai Baht has risen ......... more likely the Junta are manipulating something.

I count at least 3, maybe 4 Thais at the start (count the legs around the m/c), but two ran off when they saw what was coming.
Where are all those m/c taxi guys when you need them?

The GBP hasn't fallen against the Euro in the past 2 years.
And it only fell 8% against the Euro since the Brexit vote

I am in the stay camp, but what is most damaging is this period of uncertainty with no progress either way. It isn't the fact we have voted to leave, per say.
All the western currencies took a big hit in the last 24hrs.
It ain't Brexit, it's Thailand.
The Philippine peso was 69 before Brexit, is 66.5 now, 3% change in the same period the Baht changed 20%
The Euro changed 8% against GBP in the same two years, but lost 12% against the Baht.

Now who fixes the price of a bar girls services? Is it fair to bargain the price of the wares you are seeking from them? And who goes bar hopping with an empty pocket?
1I was always happy to buy a lady drink for a slim young girl that would sit with me for 15-25 minutes playing Jenga, etc. (which was how it was 10 years back)
Today, a chubby 40-year-old, her ladyboy friend, don't forget the fatty behind the bar, no.

In november 2017 I bought a breadmaker on Lazada for 2100 baht ( brand Flezie).
Same as mine, a piece of junk,
First drive band fail after about 30 loaves.
Second drive band, failed after about 30 loaves.
They've withdrawn it from sale now, as they can't afford all the repairs in the 1-year warranty.
Maybe yours was made before the current (faulty?) drive bands were made, maybe you haven't used it much?

No additional fees deducted by SCB (it is a Baht Transfer so why would they?) and this is now transparent unlike when I sent money direct from my bank.
I always sent Baht from my UK bank and can assure you the Thai banks made a charge for a foreign deposit.

I think he has drilled out an "airsoft" pistol and his bullet is 38Sp rimmed!!!! it'll only fire in a revolver! 55555
38 rimfire would be a very unusual round for Thailand.
The bullet shown appears to be the normal 38 centrefire commonly available everywhere in the world.

It means 'rice porridge', 'โจ๊ก' in Thai script, that spells out 'j-oh-k' when transliterated into Roman script.
So essentially 'Johk yai' in Thai bicomes 'Big Joke' in Tinglish becomes 'large portion of rice porridge', when properly translated, allegedly what he always had for breakfast.

Just leave it outside your house, someone always wants it.
Quite often they want to give you money for it.

despite your claims of being able to read to brilliantly, i am thinking you cant at all.
If you could, instead of arguing with me, you would just spend 10 seconds to look it up and realise that you are wrong.
naa face, and naa the prefix are different words. With different spelling.
Your mum was right.
You cant really read thai can you?
So not only are you wrong, you are a liar.
Welcome to my ignore list.

"Super duper high season is only about 2 or 3 weeks but it's pretty busy the whole time from Nov-March."
This statement sharply contrasts what I seem to recall reading on ThaiVisa over the last month and is certainly contracted by people who I talk to around Thailand. My friend in the hotel industry in Ao Nang Krabi tells me high season has been more like low season. Same for Chiang Mai.
It's actually hard to say if there are fewer people, or they just built too many more hotels.
Pattaya and Chiang Mai, there's been crazy building at both in the past five years.

I thought the whole point of a seaside town was a beach and a swim, and you'd have to be insane to swim in the sea at Pattaya.

Getting married to Thai wife in a month: Need help to know if she is cheating. :(
in ASEAN NOW Community Pub

I thought it was more about mutual support and raising kids.
You can't trust any woman, not even your mother or daughter.
Advice to OP, don't say anything to her, just find a 'paperwork' difficulty that prevents immediate marriage.
Problem with affidavit', etc. and carry on with the relationship as it is. Nothing wrong with 'timeshare holidays'.
