    I will keep my location quiet but none of that where I live

    Drinking my Guinness in Issaan, more fool you if you choose to live your life in Tourist cities/towns
  3. Expat68
    The Guinness is just as good and cheaper. 150baht for fried rice!! They have seen you coming. If I want to be a cheap Charlie I can eat for 50 baht with toppings. Western food if you know where to go 170-250 baht, every bit has good as you can get back in blighty

    I have half a ream of signed paperwork by the Tessabarn to say if my wife dies before me they can't kick me out of the house also the yearly tax on my house is my name solely on the property (not the land)

    This year will be interesting, mine is nearly 5 years old but they did visit my home last year

    As far as I am aware it's permanently valid unless you go out of the country or move address

    Everyone pays for sex, everywhere. If you don't take your wife girlfriend out for meal, buy here presents you don't get your end away. FACT

    Rarely go to bars nowadays but if I do, I just say to lady would you like a drink or a 100 Baht to sit and talk to me for a while. Win, Win lady always says 100 baht. Two reasons for her money straight away and more money for her

    Normal

    No doubt some on here will be disappointed that she wasn't British

    I never give a tip for bad food/service at restaurant. Why would you? By the way I had a business in the UK
  12. Expat68
    Personally speaking as a British, I firmly believe in that is where you are/were brought up in your own country has lot today with your attitude. People from major/inner cities are completely different to people brought up in rural communities (whichever country that is) JMHO
  13. Expat68
    I only have a problem with people from a certain country (European) and it certainly is not the British
  14. Expat68
    If the service is good, I tip. With the cashless society on the horizon, tipping could well become the thing of the past

    In my honest opinion it is just a shifting of wealth. I suggested this on a forum in my local paper in the UK. I was ridiculed for this

    It is the same in the city I live which is also non touristy. Majority of people who live in Phuket/Pattaya only know about life there. If people want to know about real Thai life then you will not find it in those places
  17. Expat68
    Many places. Lotus, 7-11, Big C, Global. I have been chatted up by girls in all these
  18. Expat68
    It is the same as immigration different province different rules
  19. Expat68
    It effected my friends travel/holiday massively
  20. Expat68
    You WILL pay. When you come to tax your vehicle your bill will be waiting
  21. Expat68
    Did not mention it
  22. Expat68
    Thought that would be pretty obvious? Water is the answer and when I was in a top private Bangkok Hospital the surgeon/doctor confirmed this
  23. Expat68
    When I mixed Thai and English in one sentence it used to send my wife crazy, hence we are longer together so I suppose that was a good thing😄😄
  24. Expat68
    Depends where you live. Tourist destinations no. In normal towns and villages yes. 3/4 years ago I was having a drink at a beach bar in Phuket and struck up a conversation with a waiter and waitress and they were amazed I could speak Thai, we were laughing and joking and the tourists were staring, probably they were also amazed

    My friend was there 4 months ago, he said Philippines has gone backwards since last he was there. Probably not recovered from Covid as yet
