    Yup, dogs can be useful.  Just a few months ago was sat upstairs at my desk, dogs were making an unusual, persistent bark sound.  I thought it might be a snake or something out of the ordinary, and sure enough, found they had cornered a common, Golden Tree Snake underneath the tire of my pick up truck.   Didn't have to coax that one at all, he/she slithered straight into my big fish net, and I let it go up a tree in my front garden.

     

    English is not your 1st language right?

  2. This is what happened to me.

     

    HK to Bangkok (30 days)

    Immigration Bkk (30 days)

    Cambodia (30 days)

    Kanchanaburi Extension (30 days)

    Cambodia (30 days)

    Northern Thailand Extension (30 days)

     

    So a total of 180 days, and when I was flying out to Myanmar, the lady gave me the riot act, and asked me when I was coming back. I said 3-4 months.......and she wrote something on the computer....

     

    Went to KL after 2 months and will wait 3 months to come back in.....

  3. Everywhere in the modern world has changed.

    I have been coming here since 1985.

    I think the most changes in the way Thai's think of the westerner was about 2005.

    Mobile phones, cheaper computers......

    The last 5 years though has really changed for me as I feel Thailand has taken a LEAP BACKWARDS IN THE GOVERNMENT SECTOR.

    People now days are sitting behind their computers all the time.......dreaming of what could be.

     

    But I still favor Thailand over most countries to do a short term/long term layover.

  5. I was talking to my sister a relative of her husband a retired RCMP and his wife are selling everything and want to move to either Thailand or Vietnam I suggested Vietnam and told them all I know about how Thailand is going downhill and backwards faster than a run away train.Had a friend and his wife visit 4 years ago ask about coming back to see again I also told him do not come here go to Vietnam.I told both parties do not waste your time in Thailand it is a shiit hole now.

    I have been coming here 30 years.........NOTHING HAS CHANGED.

    It's just getting more media coverage, 10 years ago....nobdy was videoing, twitter, instagram...etc..As they are now.
