  1. “A home is not an Airbnb.” Agree 100%. That’s why home owners like to select quiet-living, matured aged person/s with numerous, checkable references that verifies that the sitter/s will be at home most of the time loving their pet/s and caring for their home… and of course nobody else enters the home with prior permission. Constant communication (including video calls if time zones permit) between all parties during the sit ensures a win/win situation for all, especially for the pets, as they are loved and remain in their familiar surroundings, not at some pet hotel. Neighbours, inspections by friends/relatives and video cameras can also give absolute assurance to the home owner that the home, gardens, lawns, pool etc and their pets are being properly cared for, in accordance with the home owner’s instructions.
  2. 3 months not a problem as house sitting positions can be anything from 1 day to 2 or more years, but generally between 1 week and 4 months.
  3. Travel as long as you want! …long term house/pet sitters (@ no cost) are your friends!
  4. I dog sit professionally in various countries. My favourite breeds: Small - Pugs Medium - Cocker Spaniels Large - Labradors
  5. Hard to find decent wifi back in the ‘80s. Much better these days making people happier.
  6. …or going to Disneyland and staying on the same ride all day.
  7. You just need a nice car, to look presentable, a dating app to chat/video in advance and be prepared to take her (and perhaps a few of her family) to dinner whilst visiting her town. In return you get your own tour guide and …
  8. Own a car, travelling around the country continuously, bonking everything (with respectable jobs) that moves.
  9. ✈️ Ashes on their way back to Australia. Better luck next time ????. Thanks for hosting it! ???? ✈️ World Test Champions trophy on it’s way to Australia. Sorry you weren’t good enough to make the final ????… but thanks for hosting it! ????
  10. The ‘eye candy’ from the live BBC/ITV studio hosts ain’t too bad either
  11. Not local, so turn on your VPN and head to the BBC and ITV.
  12. In his first sentence the OP makes comparisons between Thailand and his home country. Hence IMHO the topic is about the ‘top 5 things you like most about Thailand not found in your home country’. Of course you can swim all year in warm weather, have cheap accommodation, massages, rent etc in many other countries, but definitely not in the home country of the vast majority of contributors to this thread.
  13. I never said anything about: • the closest beaches to BKK being any better than those found in SCA - or anywhere else for that matter. • using a car to travel around BKK instead of using BKK’s transit system. • cars increasing in value. My BKK condo includes undercover car parking.
  14. Owning a car in Bangkok gives you convenient access to some beautiful, nearby islands and coastal towns. Only an absolute idiot would not know that.
  15. So, because the topic is about Thailand and I clearly pointed out that fast internet was available in some other countries, not just in Thailand.
  16. You evidently didn’t read the post properly because I didn’t mention anything about Australia.
  17. The question was about Thailand. FYI electric gates, sofas, beds, coffee machines and fast internet can be found in some other countries as well.
  18. Good luck with that - check Manchester weather forecast.
  19. Swim all year Cheap massages Cheap restaurants/accomm No need to leave car for refuels Acceptance of much younger GF/wife
  20. Years ago it was always the crims who had the tattoos! ????p11 yesterday’s Sunday Telegraph????
