    Less than 100 years. So wearing shirts (for guys or girls) is not tradition.

    That was done by Yingluck/Thaksin. Prayut/Anutin hate foreigners (dirty farang/foreigners in bikinis deserve to be raped and murdered) Your memory is as faulty as Thai history books.
  3. BritManToo
    Thai historical dramas show many Thai men bare chested.

    He's right though, The sponsored ads that are obvious scams are just allowed to run by FB and something should be done about them.

    Someone revived a 12 year old topic!

    No customers under the age of 20 allowed in bars. Staff can be as young as 18, but not allowed to serve or drink alcohol until age 20. They probably wouldn't check a foreigner, but police raids are very keen on catching under 20 Thais in bars or nightclubs.

    They don't look very American to me. Guessing native Cambodians with US citizenship.

    I've purchased loads from Zenni, about $50 for progressive lens & decent frame inc delivery (14 days). If you exercise a lot the glasses will only last 18-24 months as sweat seems to damage the lens coating. But so cheap you can buy a pair every year or two. Money saving tip, buy the thicker lens than the ones recommended, they are half the price and on't feel any different when in use.

    Glasses, felt pen, ruler, mirror. Put a dot over each pupil and measure between the dots.

    I provide a wage, accomodation, transport, education and a pension for my long-term employees. Hardly 'taking advantage'.

    Sure they do, but do it in a more private way. Loads of Chinese businessmen order 3 girls to their room when in BK.

    Why do the ones that allegedly love you avoid having sex with you?
  13. BritManToo
    More like $30 women and $250 rooms ...... when I was there in 2020. But plenty of places with 50c beers and $1 cocktails. Here's one of me by the pool at Garden Village Guesthouse and Pool bar SR.

    You could try a swinging fan on a timer to give some air circulation.

    This seems cheap enough, don't know what it's like .......... 10gm = 500bht, 100gm = 3000bht. OG BKK on facebook Triple G Dodidos Kush Mint Bruce Banner Lava Freeze

    The park I visit is free for over 60s so that change has made it cheaper for me. The misses and kid still have to pay 20bht each.

    You think too mut! Live for the day, and enjoy it. Tomorrow may never come.

    Can't say I've seen any extra gouging of foreigners since 2009. Certainly things have gone up less than back in the UK. What changes were you thinking of?

    We did try and take in a 13yo girl, but she skipped school, and went out all night so was returned after a year (her choice). No point in my paying for high school and University if she doesn't want to go. Back in the village now causing trouble for her grandma. Unlike many other posters, I have no problems looking after other people's kids, but I do expect reasonable levels of behaviour if I'm providing for them.

    10k for her, +3k for her mother not to live with us.
  21. BritManToo
    My family are all dead, and have been for 45 years.
  22. BritManToo
    1 is ours (12yo boy), 1 is hers (24yo girl).

    I used to walk from the airport to Pasay bus station through the barrio in the early hours of the morning. Never any trouble, never felt there would be any trouble. Lots of old local guys sitting outside their shacks all night, they all used to shout "hello" or "enjoy your stay" as I walked past. Very friendly outgoing people (compared to Thais).
  24. BritManToo
    Been here since 2009, and still enjoying it. Still find my wife attractive. If I didn't like it I'd move somewhere else.
  25. BritManToo
    Why worry about the future? Cambodia, Philippines and Vietnam are also nice. Or you might be dead by then.
