  1. Yep, just went there a few weeks ago. Kinda neat for a single guy to spend some time there. I only saw the west side, the hills brought tears to the girls when driving.
  2. Some folks like the mountains, some the ocean and some the true Isaan farming style. We're all just prisoners (visitors) here of our own device.
  3. Many areas besides Bangkok and Isaan. It's nice to live in an industrial area where so many have good jobs. Being around poor people all the time is depressing.
  4. The house I paid for, the seller had a bank note. On the day we (buyer, seller and bank rep) meet at land office. Bank rep got paid as paperwork was signed.
  5. Sitting on Soi Buakhao having a few is great for watching Pattaya's wide range of foreigners scurrying about on the street. Good fun.
  6. I'm far superior to everyone, I can't understand why I have no friends here.
  7. I love the way the Thais don't pass up an opportunity to stomp on a foreigner, loved the way they swarmed in. And, yeah he was a dick.
  8. I made a 1400 km round trip over the holidays and saw few accidents (fender fenders) nothing serious.
  9. 2 head calls with a 7-11 stop and back on the road again. I don't take notice of a rough ride, now fighting for every inch going through Songkran traffic does get tedious.
  10. Ice cream and brownies will do it with whipped cream and crushed Oreos.
  11. Yep, sure a meal for 3 can cost only 200 thb, but a better place with all seafood dishes can be 500 thb ea. Sure, I could get by on less but that's not within my retirement plans.
  12. C'mon, Thais love a good kicking. Watch any video of fighting here and you'll always see someone get in a few good kicks.
  13. Not even close on the cost. More like 12 kpl. Maybe 2000 thb for the 700 km run plus I made some smaller trips beforehand. I don't keep tabs, I just buy what I like. So you couldn't make a 700 km run straight through like I did. Enjoy the ride.
  14. 5000 rpm ?? More like 2500 rpm, if that much. just did a 700 km run. Doubt you could have kept up.
  15. Cool, but the instant pick-up doesn't compute.
  16. I like the roar of a 3.0 diesel in my SUV, 700+ km ride on 3/4 tank.
  17. Love it, Tom Yum is good as well but we use more as one of many dishes ordered. Tom kha gai I'll order as a meal.
