  1. Had experience with applyingfor visa for my thai g.f . to come to Ausralia which is very difficult I was advied to always give the immigration more info than than they ask for..If they ask for 5 references give them 8.Worked for me 3 times.
  2. So did I but its all about saving money and cutting staff even though the biggest banks are making arouhd 1 $billion dollars every 6 months.In fact 2,100 bank branches have closed in Australia since 2017 and the towns that still have a bank branch have moved it into a shopping mall and have only 1 ot 2 staff instead of 20+ before and some only open for half a day. Lately there has been a large number of internet only banks open up that dont even have a branch.I think its B.S if you ask me.
  3. In Auustralia we dont really have a tipping culture because hospitality staff are very well paid but if the sevice is exeptional I will tip the barman or waitress not when paying the bill but before I go I hand it to them and it goes in their pocket and is not shared with others...In Thailand where wages are low I tip all of the service staff 20-40 THB except a taxi driver who has ripped me off ..they get nothing. If I have had a poor experience they get no tip.I also leaveall my coins in my room and make sure I tell my cleaners before I check out.So I basicly pay on performance. After 40 trips to Thailand in 30 years I have had no problems,
  4. This is not a new idea as in australia the banks have been closing in the hundreds in the last few years and at most of the ones still open you cannot withdraw or deposit CASH.so they have done a deal with Australia Post to take over their business for them but the customers are not happy because Australia is a big country and many small towns now dont have a bank nor a Post Office and have to travel hundred of kilometres over rough gravel roads to do their banking.
  5. You should go to Manila if you want tooting horns
  6. From my obsevations in P.I most of the guards that are statined at every bank,K.F.C Mc.donalds,bank shopping centre 7/11,etc. are very young men/boys and although they are fully kitted out for action and look the part I wonder what they would do if confroned.Life is so cheap their that the crims would just shoot the guards dead and go ahead and do the robbery.
  7. Thats exactly why you check each chit in the cup so if something is not correct you can sort it out before you check bin.
  8. Its not rocket science..when drinking in a bar all you have to do is check each chit as it goes in the cup to make sure it is correct and as you go keep a mental note of how many you have and particularly after you buy a lady drink.this will keep them honest and save arguments later.
  9. Yeah bob im in Australia..give me a ring when you hit town and we can go out and hit the piss.
  10. Time to trade her in for a new model.My philipina wifes menapause was 10 years of hell for me !!
  11. Too much corruption in P.I...Yes there is corruption in Thailand.. but they are ameteurs compared to Philipines.
  12. I woukd suggest he concentrates on the philipines for a future wife...they all speak english which is a big help and they are great mothers.I tried Thai women but ended up with philipina wife now 25 years married and 1 son. Inrfrastructor and Medical facilities are better in Thailand but you dont have to live there.
  13. Lucky that this idiot was not in Australia where the police get out their guns and shoot them dead if they resist arrest.
  14. Best news I have heard today !! Fakebook has caused arguments,kids to suicide because of abuse by their peers,,marrige breakdowns and domestic violence..etc.etc. you name it. It should be banned permantly !! Society will be much better off without all the crap that goes with it.
  15. I did 20 trips to Thiland..found a nice girl took her to Australia twice 3months tourist visa..she turned out bad ,untrustworthy and a thief so I got rid of her and later did a few trips to the philipinesand found a lovely lady totally different now married 25 years ,a son and a grandson. It really makes a difference if they can speak english.
  16. Do they do the H.O.L.E.P. procedure in Thailand ? This is done using a laser. Very good had it in australia.No problems.
  17. Hey man can I get some of thay sh*t that youre smokjn ????
  18. Do realise that to use a term like Ruski to describe a Russian is racist according to a certain member of this forum.??..Naughty boy !!
  19. Tiger/dog your wokeness is very evident. Australia is a multi-culteral country and we have yanks,poms,chinks,aussies,square heads,japs scotties,abbos,ities,frogs,etc.We all address each other by these nickname and all get on well together.Is that being racist.?..I think not.
  20. I dont have a particular dislike for Chinese people ..some of my best friends are owners/cooks at my favourite cafes.I dont where you are from but I am a 66 yesr old Australian and in these parts the abbreviation for Chinese people is commonly used and is not derogatory.
  21. Good point about what the Chinese have done to Sianookville in Cambodia. I went there about 12 years ago and it was quiet little town with lovely beaches and cheap hotels and food.From what I have learnt the Chings have totally destroyed it.I dont think I want to ever go back there again.
