Disagree, not rude, just curious. Most Thais living around me can't quite understand how I can live here and nobody in the house has a job. Thais generally admire wealthy criminals.

Disagree, I enjoy most of Bob's posts, but I can't remember reading anything worthwhile from you.

Actually the alternative is Cambodia or the Philippines, both of which are warm and cheap. Never understand the people who think Thailand is the only Asian country worth living in.

Him hating the Conservatives!

I like George ...... Way better than any of the Conservatives.

It's actually the Thai elites country, I don't think the locals are entitled to much of anything.

We're retired, why would we want to speak with Thais? Or any other foreigners for that matter.

Can't say I speak with any Thais, even the ones trying to talk in English, I just say sorry, I can't understand, smile and walk away.

I don't think I've ever encountered a local that knows we have to have a VISA. Sounds like you made this up Bob.

Me too ......... so I just use the phone app now.

They are generally a bit more expensive in Barretto This penthouse apt in Baloy Long Beach was 1500peso/night. Assume 50% more than the same in Pattaya. If you're a drinker overall monthly expenses would work out much the same. Everyone keeps saying Subic, but the girly action was all in the next resort Barretto, 25 nightclubs/bars employing 600 ladies. Don't know what it's like today, used to go there 3-4x a year before COVID then the airfares increased x4 so never went again.

Watched the video, didn't see any kicks. The fat guy was a bit rude, but he's probably fed up chasing drunk women off his property all the time. Meanwhile the Thai university lecturer who deliberately ran me down in October, after I accidentally touched his pickup, breaking many of my bones and scarring my legs is unpunished despite the police tracing him and him admitting the attempted murder.

Are you claiming to represent the forum SIMPS?

I think most likely he just pushed her away from his property, but she chose to make a thing of it because as a doctor she's special. If there was blood on the ground the police wouldn't have just suggested they just apologise to each other and walk away. This forum is full of members that hate other male expats, but worship all women and all doctors, so the responses are usually extremely biased, and the poorly written articles, lack of details, and exaggerated headlines encourage that point of view.

The Thai police are quite happy to stand by while she packs her stuff, drive her to the bus station and even pay for her ticket. But they'll only do it once!

They all started when vaccinations became widespread, although I'm sure that's just a coincidence.

I'd like to hear what the 'assault' involved. Assault could range from pushing her away to beating her unconscious.

I'm guessing his story is he used reasonable force to remove a trespasser from his property. Which seems quite reasonable to me.

It's always over at Songkran, so only another 6 weeks of pollution.

I question all doctors medical skills, half the time I turn out to be more skilled than them.

You're completely right, in this day and age nobody should have to take responsibility for their own welfare, it's always someone else's fault.

Thai Dr. advised on life/death health matter by minimum wage serving staff ...........wonder how good a doctor she was?

You think they're gonna extradite pensioner expats over this? Can't see it happening. Try thinking before posting nonsense! And how much savings would there really be in saving 200 quid a week on a pension payment and then spending 1000 quid a week on prison fees? Not that a custodial sentence is all that bad, they treat old folk in prison better than they treat old folk in care homes.

First away gets slammed by the truck jumping the lights.

More likely she despises her husband.
