BritManToo

I've found the song about this ........

Or walk, it's only 1Km from the bus station to the Consulate.

Them fighting over details is a good thing ......... gives us longer with no restrictions of any kind.

Unless you knew her from childhood, how could you possibly know what she did in her past? Doubt she'd mix with other hookers (her friends) if she wasn't of a like mind. PS. I lived with a Thai girl for a year with plans to marry (she'd actually collected all the documents) then she goes away for a week to look after her sick parents, but she's really on holiday (all expenses paid) in Phuket with a former white boyfriend. She was actually surprised when she returned and I wasn't there.

You didn't mention how old you both are? Anyway, stuff like this happens in Thailand, don't blame yourself. I know loads off guys that had the same (or worse) happen.

Nah, bought this box from Lazada for 180bht, too lazy to cut my own holes https://www.lazada.co.th/products/i3877968807-s14851835737.html If you make your own, the polystyrene needs to be lined with a bin bag for extra strength. These cutting are from veg plants grown with female seeds, obviously you can take cuttings from any 'green stem' plant. If it's a MJ plant in flower it will take longer to root and look a bit odd for a few weeks, crowns also take longer to root. Usually the cuttings from a MJ plant in veg will take 5-10 days to root. I bought 2 bigger airstones for this box, same pump, 120bht each. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/i3184307735-s11898781763.html

Upgraded my bucket, and cut another 7 clones.

Age of consent in Thailand is 15. So no legal or moral issues.

They don't seem to be able to cope with new passports. Just use your old passport number and everything is fine. I've twice played the new passport game at my local branch. Still using the old number.

Would point out she can find a wealthier guy once you take her to the UK. You'd the only one working in a supermarket, and living in a bedsit alone.

Buy her a ticket and offer to drop her off at the airport!

I did Issan in year 1 ......... only lasted 2 nights though.

I like to experience good things while being a bit fuzzy. In the day, 2-3 wine coolers, at night 0.5gm of MJ. Happy to do both in my CM home as I already have an attractive enough woman in my bed every night. The newly arrived single guy needs to surround himself with women and entertainment for at least his first year here (Pattaya). Then he can move somewhere quieter with the new love of his life (Hua Hin or Chiang Mai). Note to n00bs ........ No capital expenditure in your first 2 years (beyond a scooter). The car/house/condo/farm can wait a while.

Chicken Tikka Masala with Naan bread!

Me too! But then I moved to Thailand as a single retired 50yo Brit guy and discovered sex with attractive willing slim women. Pattaya has everything for the single retired foreign male. Lots of places to buy Brit food, many English speakers. Hua Hin is more suitable for a settled married guy with a Thai family that's been living here a few years.

I have 15x Thai MJ plants currently growing in my garden. Also smoking Lao brick. Not sure where the OP is wandering but it isn't in my village where every home seems to have a few Thai landrace plants growing in their garden. Maybe OP can't find any Thai weed for sale as it is no longer profitable to sell when everyone is growing their own.

Fined for selling without a street traders license. "The fine was reportedly technically for not having general permission to sell products on the street, not cannabis specifically, as cannabis is in a grey area currently law wise."

Same for me, many pals died in their 60s or earlier, a couple made it to 70. At 66, I'm last man standing. Although medical care didn't play any part, died in their sleep or died of cancer. wealthy or poor, UK or Thailand, private or government, made no difference.

How much have you enjoyed your life after age 65?

For those of you that want many western hybrids at almost ZERO cost. You need 1. bucket with a lid (https://www.lazada.co.th/products/i3877968807-s14851835737.html) 150bht (this one includes net pots) 2. aquarium air pump + air stones (https://www.lazada.co.th/products/magic-8800-set-2-magic-8800-air-pump-set-i224945627-s343749738.html) 150bht 3. net pots and collars (https://www.lazada.co.th/products/i3399576160-s12566860900.html) 90bht 4. a 'mother' plant Fill your bucket with tap water (you can adjust PH6.0 and add small amounts of nutes, calmag if you want) You want the water to touch the bottom of the net pot, (cut any ribs off the bottom of the net pot for ease of removing rooted cuttings) and the bottom of the cutting to be just above the water line. My net pots didn't come with collars, so I cut some bits of foam to hold the cuttings. (Note: don't make the collars so tight they pinch the plant stems) Fit it all together, check the bubbler is making bubbles to cover the water surface. Put your cuttings in the collars, and then in the net pots (trim off excess leaf). Place the whole thing in the daylight (but not in direct sunlight) Wait 5-10 days while it bubbles away, until you feel the roots are dense enough. Transplant into pots and potting soil, not in strong sun for at least a week until new leaves are growing. My 6 cutting bucket has produced 5 rooted clones in the last 5-8 days. When 1 clone is rooted, I just take a new cutting. Way easier than growing from seed, the bucket just needs topping up with a glass of water every 4-5 days. The theory: water bubbles splash the stem of the cutting causing it to grow roots. Warning: your cuttings will go completely limp for the first few hours, but will recover into firm upright plants within 12hrs. Note: the trimmed leaves will die and fall off as the plant roots. Anyone in Chiang Mai want to swap western cuttings/clones PM me. I currently have Bubblegummer, Tropical Punch and will soon have Cheesilicious. I have no interest in Thai plants as I already have too many grown from cheap Thai seeds.

2 people living in the same place earning 10kbht/month each should be plenty. Obviously if you want to live alone that would be hard.

I pay 250bht/year for refuse collection in MaeJo/SanSai.

They occasionally rip off foreigners on repairs. I had a service and new brakes fitted there once, they didn't tighten the bolts on the front disks which promptly fell out. Apparently this was my fault, and they wanted 5kbht to replace the forks. I went to a local repair shop that charged me 50bht to replace the missing bolts. I now buy my m/cs from the Honda dealer near McCormick Hospital.

Rent for a 2 bed house in Doi Saket should be 5-6kbht/month. Any more and you should just look for some other place.

I'd say, start in Pattaya!
