       It's a shame foreigners are not allowed to do the jobs that Thais can do, But it would seem bus driving is one job Thais can't do safely.

Bus driver is a no show so they give a moto taxi guy 1k for the shift.How Else can you explain all of the single bus roll overs

Did you read the article? The bit about it being futile?

You expected immigration to flip on 5k signatures? don't be ridicules.

I have to drive 60 km to my IO. Online reporting not possible.

Mail it in.The 24 hour window is obviously not relevant. I have mailed Tm30 for tenants 10 day's late and never fined

I'm impressed with how smooth the A380 is on takeoff and landing but there's something special about first class in the rattling nose of the 747.

That's surprising. We are not talking the old jumbo but the latest generation and they defiantly don't rattle. Must have been a one off

Why would you move all the way to Pattaya just to hang out with the same people you could hang out with back home? [emoji14]

Harder to get laid back home, its tlthe only reason

 

When falling go with it and don't fight it. People trying to prevented it by trying to run it out can get serious injury at speed

Enough already !

Well, perhaps because they don't have to pay the airport fees for the stopover, plus the fuel costs of a second take off - I should imagine that take off and climb use a lot of fuel.

 the connecting flight Will take on the next load of pax More than makes up for fuel

No shortage of Thai and other Asian ladies for short term rental in Oz. Just look in the personal ads in any newspaper.

Price for Asians hasn't changed in decades. around 70 bucks on a dirty matress on the floor

My Mom fell and broke her hip (femur) at about age 87 and is now 90 1/2.   Surgery was very hard on her.  One geriatric doc said many 80+ year olds will die within 6 months or so.  My Mom went downhill fast.

On my way to a hip replacement and has been painful some days even with pain killers .can't even imagine going through the agony of a broken hip and month's of immobility at that age. I would just give up

So you can't afford to live here, Europe would be way more expensive, so how are you going to survive there? 

Not true. The best scenery and cheapest life in Europe are from the east. Way cheaper than Thailand. I assume you're talking London, Paris etc but WHO wants to live there, not me

What's one got to do with other? Sometimes I feel like having road side food. Does not mean I won't carry my single malt with me. At the same time I might order a beer while having lobsters in a fancy restaurant. How are they co-related? Diversity is fun. At least for me. Also to be truthful I do not know anything about wines.

Ive been to many wedding's and catered parties and can not remeber the vintage  and name of wine they served. Good for you to make notes on an obscure Australian wine that tasted like vinegar . We both know that's not true but...yawn

That's just not true. Good for you if you open a 3000 baht bottle to go with your pad Thai.. sorry my mistake lobster no doubt .

I've recently flown to Thailand using both Thai and Qantas. 

 

Thai wins hands down. Qantas has terrible scowling staff who wait over two hours to robotically feed you a single meal. 'Breakfast' was an inedible pastry in a box that resembled diseased female genitalia. See above. 

 

Thai isn't perfect but it's streets ahead of Qantas. 

I would go down on that after 7 glasses of wine

What about everyone else???

Berri estate bin 999 delivered with my online shopping order from tesco today 350 baht. Opened it at 1pm just for a sample and it was polished off by 3 ! 

 

highly recommended for the Price and now having a crappy beer

 

 

Great time to head to oz and upgrade you're family to first world with the dollar getting crushed with forecasting looking grim . Best of luck

A shame Thailand can't produce protesters as brave and as committed as those in Hong Kong.

There is no longer military rule under the junta.  peaceful protests allowed but STILL they do nothing and happily go about their lives. Its only dummy big Bwana's that don't get it.

If this were a poll, man, could you believe the outcome.

Apart from people that dislike alcohol, beer or wine and the ones that get sick of it or something this poll would probably show 90% of TV members don't drink.

I must be a minority group member then. Can I ask for government subsidies now?

Its funny. many many posts should be filed under lies expats tell themselves 55555

What a nightmare. Enjoying the lovely peace and quite in Thailand.
