Well said.

The child in the video has a lot of growing up to do. The issue is far deeper than where or when we can get laid. Many of us expats have simply found our relationships with our Thai wives/partners far happier/ more enjoyable than our previous experiences with white women from our own countries.

Funny at first sight, but actually a good idea if it attracts more women with the required skills.

A mean, inappropriate comment. I'll thank the nurse for her work far more than the so-called entertainer/luvvy.

Dream on...

I trust you had a happy ending when you finally arrived.

Rather silly, and not remotely helpful.

We've had enough of the pestiferous repetition of this headline. Kindly desist.

Well said.

Yes indeed, sad to say.

Married a Thai lady in 1990, Still very happy together so not currently an issue for me. Not sure how I will react if, Lord forbid, she should pre-decease me.

Yes, permanently since 1993, lived and worked in Thailand in the 1980s, having first visited in 1962. I have also lived and worked, inter-alia, in Saudi Arabia, Nigeria and the Soviet Union. Got to know a bit about corruption over the years.

Yes, if she wants to keep it. Not only in Thailand, but also in any other country.

Yes, but only on the condition that post-victory Ukraine does not revert to being one of the most corrupt countries on Earth.

Not an American so apologies in advance when I say some of the anti-Trumpers on here really need to attend an educational course in learning how to grow up.

I'll give an opinion after November 5. No point in getting ahead of ourselves.

Indeed. however your language in this case was inappropriate, to put it mildly.

Good question. To this day I don't know, perhaps because my work took me abroad for extended periods. Her mother was aggressively unbalanced and, as time went by, she developed similar symptoms. Not great for me, but far worse for our two children. Finally divorced in 1986 after 23 years of marriage. Posted to Bangkok, I met and married a Thai lady in 1990. She is now 70, I am 82. We are still together, and very happy to be so.

My first wife threatened something similar. She was from Forfar, in Scotland.

Weak. pathetic, disgusting men you say ? What gives you the right to make such a contemptible statement ?

Merkel to blame for this mess.

Still 50 plus days to go before the election. In politics a lot can change in that time. Too close to call at present, but Harris is certainly in the running now.

Well said.

Met Andrew a few times at chambers of commerce meetings in HK and Singapore. Friendly enough on a one on one basis, but could be rude and bombastic in a crowd. Generally the Saxe-Coburg Gothas/Windsors have a lot to answer for over the years, starting with Britain's totally unnecessary entrance into WW1. I'm not an anti-monarchist in general, however the performance of this bunch over the years leaves a lot to be desired. They may not have direct power but they have enormous influence which they have failed to exercise in the best interests of the UK.

The accident sounds like 50/50 incident in terms of blame. I suspect the pick-up driver had non-related accident issues for not wanting to be confronted by the police.
