    Your prerogative, but despite your problems, can you not see that some people can control their alcohol intake and enjoy it ?



    What problems dude? Next day tiredness and for days following? Slowdown of brain functions. Lighter wallet?

    Yet to meet a guy or girl who defends their drinking who can actually control it.

    Anyone who truly controls it doesn't give it much thought and wouldn't bother to comment to defend themselves and drinkers in general

    Marriage stuff: My Thai son has an acquaintance from uni who proposed to a girl from the Issan area, girl agreed, her parents came to Bangkok and approved the marriage and the details all agreed. The young man had never been to the girls home village.

     

    The young man and his parents agreed to pay for a relatively expensive wedding party at the girls home, plus of course the young man agreed and paid not small sinsod in advance.

     

    About two months before the wedding and party date the girl asked for 400,000Baht more in cash for the party saying that they couldn't find anybody to cater the food etc., at the party, so they wanted to build a new kitchen and prepare the food themselves. 400,000 was to cover the food ingredients and building the new kitchen. The boy paid the extra 400,000. Boy had still not been to the girls home.

     

    The day came, all arrived at the girls house. No new kitchen to be seen. Boy asks 'where is the new kitchen'.  He was then taken to see a full new house built for a relative with a simple kitchen which was to used to prepare the wedding feast, about 1km away from girls home.  400,000B all gone. Within minutes a request for a further 100,000Baht for the fresh food ingredients. Not paid.

     

    Boy aborted the wedding and he and his parents quietly disappeared back to Bkk.

     

     



    He and the family should've at least waited till they ate
