  1. She could predict lottery numbers, if you buy 10-20 Million THB worth

    of tickets, you are sure to have some winning numbers.

    regards Worgeordie

    The driver did say underground lottery, but I strongly suspect nothing but BS. If someone bet B10 million on a 2 number bet they could expect a return of 60:1 or B600 million. If they were lucky enough to win on 99:1 odds, the chances of collecting that sum are even lower.

    Yup placing bets is easy and collecting not so easy. So far only 20% of a 5k baht bet paying 40:1 has been paid. Nothing to do but hope for lucky,,twice and be paid in full as the runners husband wears a common uniform.
  2. My wife legally changed her given first name which was a very nice name at an early age to something rather long she considered lucky. I'm okay with it except needing to clear up the many different English spellings she gave me and that appear on many documents prior to us meeting. We've lock in on one now that we are married. At first she was chilly about it saying things like "don't worry the bank knows who I am honey" on international money transfers. I couldn't stop laughing and knew she was for me.

  3. I'm no expert but isn't Levi's out of fashion these days?

    it's never been in fashion TBH. Unless you enjoy the company of your sister on the end of you penis...that kind of circle it may have been fashionable..

    Good workwear though.

    I don't have a sister but if I did please explain how she ended up on the end of my penis because two guys in Bangkok were making fake Levis?

    Can i send a hand written letter explaining it instead?

    Sorry Franky,

    My wife says:

    "Negative,Ghost Rider,the pattern is full"

  5. Your post is a complete

    strawman argument with yourself. The op gave no indication what his fallback plan is. I like him for taking in a stray and his effort to place the dog now that he can no longer care for it. I would still like him if he put the dog in a shelter or abandoned the dog after being unsuccessful finding a new home. Why? Because he gave it a good life and care for 1 1/2 years.

    Baseless Pontificating is unattractive and merely trolling in my opinion.

    Good luck to the op whatever the outcome.

    I've cared for soi dogs much to my wife's displeasure at first that have come to be fed three times a day and they've abandoned me.

  6. Since i was a little kid at school kids would look at me and other

    kids peeing at the urinal, i didn't like it and till this day i will not

    use a public urinal,, i'll go to a cubical and that is that.

    And yes, mine is bigger than yours.

    Carrying around the whiz extender after using it seems odd. Rinse with a water bottle,put it in a plastic bag? Why not just squat and be done with it,,rhetorical question.
  7. I'm not great on the details,,the dumb foreign husband who's wife handles the particulars and then we make a final decision together. We usually go from bk to kk and it is less than b500. I do think I understand there are different carrier companies that go to specific destinations and she books in advance sometimes by calling the stations and other times at the 7/11(which amazes me a little)

    Hopefully another poster may recognize the purple uniform and be able to tell you the operator.

  8. There are some nice coaches from the Bangkok northern terminal I think it's called. My wife calls them the good service buses,sorry I don't know the operator. Nicely appointed and a uniformed attendant collecting tickets,passing out food/drinks/snacks. Also two drivers taking shifts I think.

  9. First trip to then girlfriends village. Made a plan to meet her papa and friends to work cutting hundreds of trees in the morning. When I got to the house they were up the road in the fields already. Mama gave me a bow saw and a thermos full of coffee to take and pointed which way to go. I held one in each hand and awkwardly drove off.

    When I found them they were deep in the field so I decided to ride the motorbike on the narrow path rather than walk to save time. I was wobbling and the tall grass grabbed the saw and I drove down into the pond. I looked around and thought nobody saw this and managed to get out and join them minus most of the coffee. Despite not having a common language we worked all day and they were pleased with me.

    The embarrassing and funny part is on my next trip to the village for our wedding papas friends told the story of how I dumped the bike in the pond and how funny it was to them at the time.

    In hindsight I found it interesting how they kept a straight face that morning as not to embarrass me, a stranger and when we became friends enjoyed giving everyone a laugh about the American driving on what I now know is a footpath and landing in the pond.

  10. Confusing language for me.

    Maybe "whole exchange" would be closer as you're not trying to swap parts and pieces but the entire bike.

    "Trade in" is the vernacular in my opinion.

    Thais don't like to buy used vehicles and the dealer likely has more than enough used bikes they can't sell. Also they sell Yamahas so why have a used Honda in stock?
