Some mistakes

feel sorry for the day workers  there day money for family food .

even worse some one has passed away and some injured ,

but not just here this happens it is everywhere 

last year eindhoven brand new multy story carpart floors colapsed never been used now back to crumbled stone and recicled metal 

if Uk is out with No deal  then so be it ,the EU will be worried  because they also will pay more for goods well needed in europe from the uk it will take a few months but uk being uk will come out of it and maybe even do better than now 

,At least they dont pay millions to the never ending  hole eu  has  and the endless dinners and money waisting this eu do  it is not all waiste  but a great deal ,

in the Netherlands last week the goverment minister pulled out the plug on an it job costing millions also eu subsidised because the soft ware is not ready ther next step to correct this is clue less what a waist .

i glad i live in asia , here many complain and many complain about the high baht but still easier to live here than europe .

and again this visas tm 30 in europe countries is not much different the  ex pats from other countries  must do the same report have docunents correct  the bank is not so easy ,so all the  same world wide .

so no whining  as the guy said from a bar stoel   just wake up in the morning and think 

AAA a new day a new chance  have a nice day all 

Land lord spend on a new box or a fire then he has nothing ,

can also be ants check this they get into terminals and cause problems .

To  Talk like a Turbucelosis ward i think is over the top  or have u lived next to one of these wards ?

tb is a very frightening  sickness people should not joke with this 

as for your chinese friwnd  all china do it many think it is discusting 

but i think after 3 months like everything u get usto it and not realy hear it 

as the people say if u dont like talk to your house boss or as said move 

These days many many have short fuzes  tolerate nothing ,

Go to Rex hotel district 1 can get a good price if just arrive .

on 5 floor is a big veranda can look over hcm very nice and the food is good and ice beer  

why  let thin esculate to a fight must have been some reason

best is shut up and walk away  then done 

but as always some farangs /Thai are hard learners

Thailand has always been a transient place for foreigners, a mere pitstop in life.  People like me are as rare as dinosaurs and almost everyone I knew in the early years are long gone.  Over the decades the kind of people coming to Thailand have changed and so have their reasons for leaving.  But for all the complaining there are always more people arriving, everyday.  I see no reason to get all upset over people leaving.

agree

every where is getting more expensive  

Thailand  is also a bit more but i guess everybody has a living standard ,if u just shop in supermarkets or makro   then the price is more,

i find shopping in market s   still  reasonable  pricing  simple food but eat good and browsing markets is intresting.

when we on the road we almost find something we need reasonable price /fruit /mushrooms/ salt 

For Dutch   pension stop is not realy like that

if u get a pension as a single person it is more 

if u live with someone and thay have a pension or income  then it goes down 300 euro +-

because u have a colective income

a lot of people have  a L A T relation living apart together to get around this 

dont think the goverment will stop your pension id someone stays 1 or 2 nights 

must be proved that u actualy live together permenant  

of course they check but is like everywhere if u unlucky  u get this problem

u come or go take or lave it    thailand will always be here 

just sorry for the very local comunity pople they suffer

no income 

Tax  whats that 

If you bait a hook u maybe catch a fish

 What the eye does not see the mind does not worry about  

we have people in and out but from day 1 we do not leave wallets valubales or tempting things for the tempentation .

Do not forget most maids come from poor families

in a flash they do something to maybe help there family .

hoping that the backlash will be forgotten ,

Many farangs are careles with valuables phones i pads wallets on the bar on tables 

All dont tempt people its easy to make a mistake .

Even farangs in supermarkets pick up 2000 baht after putting his foot on it and waiting

then put it in his  pocket it so it is not just the maids ,\Workers 

we have aa few workers but like i say we dont tempt them .

Hi  i took my pension and left it as it is the money i should pay contrabution i keep 

worked out ok

better pay into a uk account and have a simple adress in uk otherwise u get the rate overseas   thats not what u want every pound counts to live good luck  

Lost cc card 5 minuits phone call canceled so who is at fault here 

cc normaly have pin now 

maybe her last money to buy food shame on u mister  

the worst thing in the world dishonesty /stealing 

if u eat  and cook at home feed the dog the left overs but no chicken bones or rib bone 

can feed rice and vegatables and what meat raw chicken is ok but not  pork or raw fish

if u cook for 2 can cook for 3 the dog  and make sure is cold easy 

our dog eats whhat we eat never sick and always satisfied

these manufactured dog foods and especialy tin food is more rubbish additive than food

I have had an Elite Passport for 4 years. The Visa stamp is in my old passport and I have been using my new passport about 2 years. At first I went to Chaeng Wattana to have the Visa stamp transferred but after sitting there for several hours waiting for my number to be called, I finally gave up and walked out. Since then I just carry both passports and hand both to the immigration officer at the immigration desk at the airport. Not ever a second glance from them. No problems at all. Not worth the hassle of changing from one passport to the other. Just carry both.

Thats good information saves much time  

like the Brexit on and on and on  will it ever stop 

allways complaining the cheap charley brigade 

500 baht no hassel in out job done  never complain about 500

My teen came home with a brand new Honda Click 150i.

It's a fine bike for 62K, not such a good deal for 8k deposit and 48 payments of 2k2.

I wouldn't mind one, guess I'll get my chance when she can't make the repayments.

 

As for reliability, a full engine rebuild costs around 6k for most of the Honda range, so it's not really a big problem/expense. Most of mine seem to need a rebuild after 50-60k.

so  you are  a miser  talk like it is an ornament she cant pay the repayment 

if she can not and you can why dont u pay up front and all ok 

dept in thailand one of the worst things here i know everybdy has but if u are a bit of a straight farang  never have dept even around your near ones 

it is a hint not a command s dont take iit wrong make 

from day one here we no dept  no money no buy took a while but we live great now all ours and still have some to buy 

just ware what u like i do i have the same comment from the misses to but i ignore around the house is ok if people arrive i just put on sweat shorts never walk around with no shirt 

when all gone take off again

whe shopping dress correctley 

politeness here goes a long way
