For a European to learn another Indo-European language is much easier than for a Thai to learn a European language which is so different from theirs and vice versa.
Furthermore, there are much more opportunities for you to practice English back home than Thai people.
A Thai teacher should have 'good' pronunciation but one shouldn't expect her to have perfect pronunciation as a native speaker. Anyway, there are so many different English accents such as American, British, Australian so which one is considered 'good'?
Australian

Put the soldiers back in the barracks who know how to March up and down and put educated people in to run the country
Also deflate the baht, why is it still strong when the rest of the world's currencies have fallen.

I wonder how much of a refund they ended up getting?
Probably less administration costs

They really don't like foreigners. Thais drive like absolute idiots all the time if a foreigner does as a Thai does he is arrested and jailed. The hatred is being displayed.

For all who doesn't know much about Thailand standing in the region China is the big boss around here and what it says and want goes, so Thailand with its super pride disdain and dislike in everything that goes with other foreigners, is a putty and a puppet in the hands of the communist giant...
Also the big boss in Australia. Own ports, Airports, roads, large cattle & sheep properties, Dairy industry, agricultural land, fisheries etc. 50 yrs ago they were 3rd world and the West poured billions in foreign aid into them. Now they control the world economy

Well its good that Chooks is a busy man......theres a bit of noise down at the mud hole thats located just near South Road not far from Nepean Hwy, though id think there joshing the kid, i mean hes never shown to much so why redraft McCartin? Mr Chooks WILL cut off all discounted Booze sales to the Saints social club if that happens again....
Lot of noise about restarts to the various football seasons around the world....Scotland's lower leagues have now wound it up due to the fact they needed there money so there done and dusted but the 44 teams above them well there sweating it out, meanwhile the EPL want all there games played by mid july....Even Gill's been in the news like a lot of chat but no details in fact we dont even see a plan.....
Which brings to my mind....How to get rid of Simon Goodwin......i even google'd it....seems he went off to a retreat as well as the US to learn some more, Ooooommmmm....Bali retreat...well it didnt help so far.....So what does a smart man do? We get an online tarot reading thats what we do.....the question is WILL Simon Goodwin get the sack from the MFC before the end of this year?
Wow....I like this reading.....How do you feel about yourself?...wheel of fortune...i see it as Russian roulette....one bullet in the chamber ...means i have hope of him getting the chop....
What you want right now...the Lovers...its telling me i want a new coach...its coming...when in the spread its eventualy coming....
Your fears....The Chariot....ho ...he might dig in and hang on....thats what i dont want....
What is going for you.....The Moon....ahhh love it......something going on beind closed doors...Clandestine affairs....Glen has the axe ready to fall with a replacment......GREAT...
What is going against you....The Hermit...ahh....looks like end of season chop....
The likely Outcome....Death....thats change....means Simon wont pass muster and becomes an ex coach at seasons end....too bad i have to wait that long...
Im telling you its a waste of time starting the season with Simon in charge....The way they just caved in to the Eagles, no spirt there nothing at all.....
Turnbull has a book coming out soon....already had Rupert...the guy married to Gerry Halll and his son say my dad never said that as well as Peta Credin who couldnt get butter to melt in her mouth to say its all lies...the world of politics.....Really i did like Malcom but the book? no no no.....they all do it dont they? I cant wait for Peter Duttons....book....
Sam "Randy" Newman marches on and too Spring street.....wanted to ask Andy why they cant play golf....https://www.news.com.au/sport/afl/sam-newman-marches-on-victorian-parliament-over-golf-course-lockdown/news-story/bed0d31d8462d5702c6be326d6e35b46 yep the footy show man wants to play golf....Of course Andy was to busy to come out on the steps to parlavou with Sam on stage 3 lockdown.....I recomend Sam to go buy a golf game and play it on his pc.....
Take a look here and see what 3 years of coaching that rabble known as the Demons can achive.... https://www.realestate.com.au/news/paul-roos-afl-premiership-coach-scores-brighton-sale-in-four-days/?rsf=syn:news:nca:news:spa:strap nice place.....Seeing that place Simon wont give in easy.....

You know i thought the press here were anal about the footy....they never turn off in the US.....for the first few months after the season ended it was all Tom Brady.....after Free Agency came on it was still Tom Brady... now we have moved on to the Patriots and there coach and there remaining quarterbacks....And dont talk to me about Apple news....talk about Podbga yep hes back.....like if you listen to them the press...hes off to Real yet a bit further down hes staying at Man United, then you hear Juv want him back...then you see Man Untied will sell him at reduced fee......ive stared to skip over this stuff...
Great news...Iphone Se hit the shelves today...around $800 well just under, size of the 6 body of the 8 and the get up and go of the 12....meant to hit the sweet spot for people who cant see any reason to spend $2000 on a phone but no 5G.....thats next years big selling point for Apple fans.... Well Steve Jobs would be rolling in his grave and i wish he come back as a ghost and haunt Timmy Cook....even scare off his boyfriends, the bullocks in the last two years updates and the bullocks its taken to get it right....friggggginenena April and my iphone is still running slow, yes im a dill...i swore last year i wouldnt doo any software updates untill i checked that they were fine....but i didnt listen did i? The previous year at least by the 4th update and within 3 months the phone was going great....not this year...and Apple service the cheek...tried to get me to do a few things...in the end i did a total reset....marginaly inproved, changed carrier still the same then i realized about the soft ware issues....these sorts of things didnt happen when Steve was around.....Anyway sept WILL see 4 new phones, yep 4, there will be 3 sizes and 2 configurations....the basic if you like like my XR though they dont call it that now and the pro range....thats the one you need to be a rich Expat Thai farmer or a bank robber to own...the Max in the pro range will be bigger than the Max in the other range....so there you have it....
50 years on...some Woodstock info... http://www.bbc.com/culture/story/20190816-50-facts-about-woodstock-at-50-music I went to Sunbuy 73, if your not a Vic you'd have no idea.....just a rascal i was....well no nude women dancing near me, didnt see any drugs getting sold either but then i would even know what it looked like .... i do recall some pretty good music getting played....best would have been at 3 am saturday night...Madderlake.....they woke the entire crowed up....I liked Billy Thorpe.....he rocked the house down saturday night....them were the days my friends we thoughtthey never would end....do you know that song?
Mc Carton is a liability and a club would be mad to draft him. Maybe he could go to Sydney with his brother.

I looked at the reviews of a 2015 model think it went to 2016 didnt see anymore but then again I wasnt seriously browsing....the review wasnt the best maybe the newer upgrade game fix's that who knows.....but you can play....and in your own state though id recomend Victoria of course or you can stay with WA or where ever AFL too...all your teams nation wide...maybe you can re recruits ur Kerrs and who ever else...a drug free Cousins? maybe....so there you go...download the steam engine and get playing......

Dont ever let a woman tell you they love you for who you are......its built into there DNA....like a computer software program....Excel springs to mind very quickly...an accounting software package, they keep a ledger some where tucked in nice and neat between the nipple to about 50mm from the top of the clit....you get more of it as you top up....or have the ability to top up...I having learned still got the German car but its a pretty common old golf.....the GTI badge the girls wouldnt have a clue about though a few have commented on the nice tartan seat patterns and all the nice lights inside the cabin especially the red one across the door trim when the lights go on in the evening....
You could be in the next Stay Wars movie...what is it now? 132? well it was an interesting clip to watch, even if you do it just to boost your self esteem.....Ugly Models its called, in fairness there not that ugly maybe a bit different then the make up does the rest....
Well now I know....to save money on a shoe box hotel room that you pay an arm and leg for I can stay in an Internet cafe over night.....https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-52265917 the first time I went to Japan my hotel room $100 a night in Tokyo and were talking 2012 was like.....hahah cramped...though the receptionist who I fell in love with made the whole experience very easy to take.... so with the corvid 19 there closed the Internet cafes where around 4000 homeless spend the night....Well that trip I did venture forth early in the morning to go for a walk in the park....this being a Saturday morning I did find one Japanese gentleman hung out like Jesus Christ sandwiched between an office building and a bike rack in the upward position....asleep and id say very drunk...oh I did want to take a pic of this.....but timid I was so decided not to.....though later on my walk I thought yes I will so when I was on my way back to my hotel the <deleted> had woken up and gone off.....all becasue of FACE....they dont like you to see the other side.....when I got to the park it was like a tiny park to get to the gates....being 7 am they were locked....whats this asian thing with locking up parks? anyway while walking down through what could be a car park but wasnt it was like a mini park outside the big park I heard some movement spying to my right I did see a guy get out of a box.....yes a cardboard box.....and he was clothed and looking number one.....amazing I thought....there clean beggars here.....then almost at the same time same to my left...another guy gets out of his box.....and the boxs were in good nick, they obviously dont toss and turn like me when sleeping.....this guy steps out of his box fully clothed looking like a million dollars too...with his nice push bike next to his tiny home.....
Ho I do like a Church story.....http://www.bbc.com/culture/story/20200407-the-surprising-story-of-polands-extraordinary-churches what better place to get one than Poland....there blondes can be spectacular as well......Frustrated Architects designing concrete bunkers get there juices flowing on churches instead ....some nice designs in here....check it out....I like the steps up and the high brick curved walls leading to the entry......all during the communist era.....do yourself a favour and look....not for the religion but for the structure.... So who paid for these anyway?

Pity some of the TV mob didn't decide to show a few full game replays from the last 30 years on weekends.
Maybe not include the dates to give them a bit of interest.
I know there's a few smarties here that would recognise the players/runners/water boy and instantly know all the quartertime scores let alone the winners but most of us would get a bit of a buzz out of it.

Just curious will there be a draft this year?
Young up & coming players won't have the opportunity to prove themselves. Next years draft will be deep with 2 years worth of prospects in the pool.

Well with the Aussie government giving them around 80k baht per month they will be kicking and screaming as they are dragged on the plane. Have Thai friends in Melbourne and they love the 20k baht per week handout
