By the way aren't they still fighting? I think they still have a WALL separating them What I always wanted to know is how do you get on with your work colleagues if they opposite religion? Do you still talk to them?

5 & 6 year Olds? I haven't got the patience for that ...I'm a cranky old man Nope I will only be teaching adults , probably in a university

I had no idea you as a farang can get FREE public hospital in Thailand? Sounds good to me

Sounds a bit ....spooky ! Trees ? Darkness ?

But what it all comes down to at the end of the day ....is all those politicians lunch and dine together on your money. They may fight with each other publicly but I bet you the Irish leprauchaun bracelet that if you walked into the Parliamentary dining room on a Saturday night they all be sitting together wining & dining on your money ....oh to be sure to be sure !

What still has me mystified was I was watching a documentary and this Irish bloke from Northern Ireland talking with a Irish accent saying "I'm British not Irish " Could of fooled me talking with a Irish accent! Anyway why do you want to be known as British ?. Especially if you have a Irish accent Hardly anything to be proud of is it ,If I had a choice I would rather be Irish As soon as they get that Union jack off the Australian flag and replace it with a Rainbow flag all the better !

The only weirdo is you having sick leave every Monday ,calling in sick. As a matter of interest did you call in sick on a Friday too ?

Oh theres no need to be condescending The OP is a veteran poster of over 25 years service to the community

Sometimes things go through my mind remembering things I had seen in the past Don't you think it's shameful and selfish to have children past say 65? A Philippines YouTuber died last week,he had just had a child at 69 He admitted his newly born son would not see him when he was an adult I again remembered the face of a old farang the image going through my mind this morning after reading comments on YouTube about that Philippines YouTuber Last October I was walking up past Rompho markets in Pattaya I walked slowly past a elderly farang with a young Thai partner and two babies being pushed in a pram who I presume were his children He seen me looking and for that 5 seconds he had a smirk on his face almost reading to me he was "proud" of himself that's how I defined that "smirk" at me almost like he was "high & mighty " old man for having kids at his age probably late 70's About 15 minutes later his wife was pushing the double pram and looking at stalls ,he was standing away from her I took the opportunity to walk up behind him , and spoke quietly into his right ear "Get a life " I said quietly "get a life's He turned his head immediately to look at me He had red veins in his red nose "Be ashamed very ashamed " He looked at me stunned not saying a word before I darted off ! The look in his eyes like a kangaroo in car headlights was amazing , completely stunned ,no smirk anymore .. probably knows what he did !!!

I think he lives in Bangkok,

And yet showed no empathy when I was locked up in the view talay back in May ,not a whisper to help me escape!!!

It's not only Russian but young British and Australian even New Zealand farangs partying like 1999 by the Condo pool

Yes thankyou Ralfy And if I was an owner I would agree with what The Base has fine by banning those under 30 days staying by introducing finger printing scanning was it or was it facial recognition? Can't remember but what a great idea

Exactly! Because your selfish What about the poor owners living in these massive condos who bought during the low season where they could relax by the pool and sleep soundly at night only right now to hear parties and yahoooing out near the swimming pool area at night with 2 week holiday makers And breaking doors ,using the gym ,jumping and yahoooing in the pool ...Yahooo ! And you look out to see shirtless young tattooed farangs with beer bottle in their hand ,jumping into the pool ! Yahoooooooooooo

Ain't that a fact GG Great topic

Yes !! I would hate to be an owner and have tom dick & Harry using all your amenities you pay for

Yes exactly let's not care and turn this world into a farcial game of monolopy full with Pitt Street and a ferry service from Circular Quay complete with morbid miserable faces !!!!!

Sadly drug dealers don't care about morals but at least he was well dressed

And yet you haven't done a thing about this generation who have shirts hanging out etc ,do something!

You actually have a point about this generation dressing Years ago 30 years ago when I used to catch the bus to work,the bus drivers always wore collared shirts with ties and shorts with long socks and polished shoes Nowadays I see bus drivers with shirts hanging out and socks down to their ankles wearing black Nike runners !

Oh please there's no need for ageist opinions

Now it's high season in Pattaya which means the tourists are here for their annual leave Is your Condo block now noisy with parties ,slamming doors etc I have spoken to a farang who lives in Arcadia Beach Condo in Pattaya who owns his own condo facing the swimming pool ground level He woke up in the morning to see his small chairs and table moved from his open balcony to near the pool with beer cans nearby I'm not sure why he didn't notice through the night that they were missing but anyway please we can't cross examination of him. My question to you is your Condo building much busier with tourists ,families , screaming kids now ? What's that Condo in Pattaya that recently introduced finger printing scanning so no Airbnb clients would stay ?

Im not doing it for the money, I want to do it when I retire for an exciting life . I want to be a teacher in Myanmar or somewhere exciting

Cheese ....and peanut butter together? Sounds disgusting

Please tell me the next steps to being a English teacher in Asia not particularly Thailand I'm thinking Myanmar , Vietnam, Cambodia,China , Mongolia? I wonder why there are no foreign English teachers in the Philippines or are there??? Please let me know What are my next steps? Can I just have a TEFLA or CELTA certificate? What do I need exactly? Is age against me? What's the easiest country to be accepted? I am excited about this
