Hit and run got me, I'm all broken!
BritManToo replied to BritManToo's topic in Motorcycles in Thailand
My misses is pals with a very expensive lawyer who lives down the road from us. She says let my wife do everything on her own, unless the outcome looks unsatisfactory, in which case she will step in. My misses is a local social activist, knows everyone worth knowing, involved in everything, so she's in a position of power. Early stages at the moment, police still waiting on a hospital report from the doctor. Not much point in me seeing the police, all I can say is 'something hit me'. -
Siem Reap in February--what to expect?
BritManToo replied to heybruce's topic in Cambodia General Chat
I always stay at the Garden Village Guesthouse and Pool bar, about 100m from Pub street. rooms were around $10/night, great swimming pool with attached bar serving food and drinks 24/7. Mix of young and old people staying there, dorm rooms for the backpackers. Everyone very friendly and we all mixed well. -
Hit and run got me, I'm all broken!
BritManToo replied to BritManToo's topic in Motorcycles in Thailand
Small update 3 weeks after the event. Seen the hitters police report, he admits to following me and running me down because my bag knocked his car. Police have photos of his car smashed all down the left side from him ramming me ...... what a tool. Wife is off to his insurance company this aft to discuss compensation for my pain, suffering and injuries. As for me, Most of the cuts and scabs have now fallen off. Lots of muscle damage, blue right foot, blue right shoulder hip and elbow, knee painful, hip doesn't work properly so hard to walk. I can just about get around the inside of the house by myself, up and down stairs. Feeling a lot more hopeful of a full recovery now, even if it is still 1 or 2 months away. -
Drunken Farang yobs in the morning.
BritManToo replied to bob smith's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
No foreigners in my MooBaan, hardly any foreigners in my local area either. I'd suggest moving out of the foreigner ghetto.- 62 replies

Is it me or Phnom Penh is actually kinda expensive ?
BritManToo replied to MrPancake's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Been many times, always enjoyed it. Always booked a hotel with a pool right in the middle of the entertainment area. It's worth the extra money for a morning and afternoon swim every day, and a nice walk down the promenade in the early morning. -
I'm here for the entertainment, and Bob provides plenty of that.

Do you find women boring after a while?
BritManToo replied to bignok's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Women are for sex and childbirth, men are for friendship and sporting activities. If you don't try and mix the two, you won't get so disappointed. -
Hi George, Just my my opinion, but in the last few months I've felt moderation has become much more, positive, fair and even handed. No need to ban anyone, just remove any posts that break community guidelines. I'm particularly happy that personal attacks and insults are being removed so quickly these days. No need to be rude or insulting to anyone, whether you agree with them or not. Good job George, and your Moderating team! Personal note, I can't believe that this forum has been so supportive to me during my difficult time after my hit and run injuries in the past month. Many thanks to everyone (both friend and foe) for their support on my thread, you've really helped me through a really low point in my life.

There’s nothing quite like a Breakfast Beer.
BritManToo replied to bob smith's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Just had my first Full Moon dark wine cooler with breakfast. Breakfast was a CP double cheeseburger with an added slice of Mainland Vintage Cheddar. -
American woman sexually assaulted in Bangkok
BritManToo replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
If they just want to sleep, I've got better things to do somewhere else. The one time i was stuck with one that 'just wanted to sleep', I called security and he dragged her naked from my room and escorted her to the front entrance of the hotel. I assume the moment i fell asleep she'd be sorting through my stuff looking for things to steal. On the other hand, The few times where I just wanted to sleep (too drunk), they were naked and on top of me the second the light went out. -
Is it just the Thai way or am I missing something
BritManToo replied to jwest10's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I agree with you, my Thai wife an kids are very polite, considerate and loving. More so than my Brit family ever were. I notice the complainers always seem to be surrounded, by a host of distant relatives. Quite frankly, those apparently living in some communal Thai family hell-hole need to clear out the ungrateful hangers on. -

American woman sexually assaulted in Bangkok
BritManToo replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
Probably same was as the rest of us, looking at the condom sizes in 7-11. Haven't you noticed how small they are? -

If you don't want to have sex with someone, it's probably best not to invite them into your bedroom. No blaming, just common sense.- 217 replies

Why are there so many idiots in this world?
BritManToo replied to bignok's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Doing pretty well now, first 2 weeks I was suicidal from the constant pain and disability. Then this weekend I turned a corner, and am recovering quickly. Ribs still give insane pain spasms, arm strapped for at least another 4 weeks to protect my broken collar bone. Yep, bleeding and fluids filling my lungs appeared to be my doctor's greatest concerns, but I appear to have avoided that, you gotta be lucky! -
Forget the surgery, it's a last resort. I have been symptom free for the past 3 years after smoking 0.5gm of high THC Indica cannabis every evening just before bed. No other medications required.

You forget you are only talking about foreign men. It's way easier for a foreign woman married to a Thai man. As for being elderly and alone in Thailand, Again only a problem for you as you married a Thai woman too old to have children with you.

You can't beat chain link fencing. At night my 3 girls live here, during the day they're out and about in the garden. Rabbits die very easily, expect 50% death, and the survivors live forever.

This is me, not spoken with my 4 former Brit kids in nearly 15 years. I created another family, they can't create another dad. Their loss!
