sipi

I have flown this route tons of times and flown zillions of km all over the world and never seen this before. Usually if you get an exit seat (which I sometimes prefer cos there is more leg room) you are then asked if you agree to helping and given a short 'training' session. My phone was already turned off and amid the bustle could not get a shot but as I live and breathe there was a row of seats there. I will be returning to BKK again in a week or two and will be on the lookout with phone in hand.

Interesting reply. Please post pics.

You can bet the ThaiVisaForum "detectives" are looking it up on Google as we speak....

(edited to include clapping and laughing men......)

Oh, and the "detectives"........

Thais can be peculiar when it comes to social media. My wife is constantly showing me weird stuff sent to her by her friends, and I mean weird. They always share this stuff around.

However, it seems the trust is already gone; and sometimes good old "gut-feeling" kicks in.

He is back in Oz reminiscing about the "good old days".

In Khao San Road they glare and mutter at everyone. Don't feel so privileged.

The Sydney classified ads...

In time to decorate for halloween.

Full version for posting at home. App version for reading on the go. I can't think of anything that needs posting on the go, so am happy to just use that version for catching up.

My wife is half my size, but she has twice my brains. I do exactly as she tells me.

The only farang I see in Thailand is my neighbour Rob, when he is here. The nearest farang apart from him is about 40 minutes away in Phon Cheroen, but I don't know his name.

I like Rob. He was my neighbour in Coffs, and introduced me to my wife.

Ooops, have to go; my wife is calling me for dinner...

This has to be fake. A successful relationship on TVF?

Happy anniversary, and all the best for the next 10 years; and beyond....

Pay up. Life is a gamble. Some you win, some you lose; no matter where you are and what you are doing. I lost far more, time and money, dating farangs.

Look at the odds. Even if it doesn't work out, she will remember the good times in Europe with a kind gent.

And if it does work out, well..................

You could get 20 trips on the 5 baht bus, but you will have to get off at the second last stop on the last trip.

You have survived many trips to Thailand and not been sick, in spite of eating street food in 40+ degree heat and 100% humidity; yet you are now worried about your girlfriend leaving food out through the UK Winter??

Don't worry about "educating" her, educate yourself.

Eat drink and be merry...

Not specific to Thailand. My workmates wife in Rockhampton Australia stabbed herself in the back a dozen times in front of her ex-husband and died; and yes, I can provide details for the usual TVF self-righteous doubters.

Making solar hot water is relatively simple in Thailand through a thermosyphon set-up.

The temperature control and storage will need to be well thought out.

If it is too cool you may produce a breading ground for legionella. It if overheats it might pressurize.

Do you have a family Bill? Parents or kids? If you do, they come first. Otherwise, up to you.

At times it is impossible for one reason or another not to walk on the road. Footpaths are for feet. Not stalls, motorbikes, cars, workshops.....

Walking on the road even facing traffic is dangerous enough.

Moved to Pub.

Ever notice that threads like these always wind up in the pub?

I'll have a Leo. Nam kaang.

"sigh"..... Yes

Name and address in Thai.

PM will do

Ok

Did you ever notice that the Yamaha Wave in Thailand has a longer seat and larger headlight than the non-Asian variety of the same motorbike? Longer seat to fit 3 riders and brighter headlight to avoid wandering buffalo.

True story; add it to your "trivial Thailand facts" list....

please supply lumens for the thai vs non-asian

Sure. Can you please post your full name and address in Thai, and I will ask our friendly Yamaha dealer to send you some glossy brochures..

Otherwise you can ask you local friendly Yamaha dealer.

Option 3. I know little about computers but I'm sure you can do what most TVF members do, and look it up on web jet or whatever it is called.

so you have no evidence for your claim? whata surprise
