I get that places I go, they know I speak Thai or they tell them I have a Thai wife you can tell one of them has said something the atmosphere changes, although she very very rarely comes out with me if I just go for a couple of beers, she doesn't follow me around like most of the farangs in the bar every where they go the mia farang goes,

20 odd years ago Thai's did not like a farang learning to speak their lingo, I picked it up pretty quick but I did go to school, so much so I could understand more, I remember having my lunch one day in some place in BKK and 4 Thai's sitting on the next table saying how dangerous it was farang speaking Thai, the look on their faces when I asked for the bill in Thai and as walked past them I said to them don't gossip in front of me, many farang can speak Thai, Here in Phuket if they were born here can switch to south language

There is only one religion in Thailand, thats "Money"

They dont want you to die in their hospital, looks bad on their year end stats

Now there's an arrogant bunch of sheeeeets, Dont call the Russians again to me,

Not enough as far as Im concerned,

You need a degree to understand them all, Back in May my daughter came for a few weeks, with her husband, her daughter 2 years 6 months and she was pregnant, she had bought a package from TUI, I asked her about the insurance she paid extra for that, my first question did you tell them you are pregnant? nope she said, go back in there and make sure it's included and do they pay the hospital here or do you have to pay and claim it back, she didn't know, well you need to clear that, better send me the link to the insurance let me read it, I know what happens here,

It all went quiet, like usual here

My thought were if these polices were issued by Thai insurance companies that would actually stop as they know all the prices, A good friend of ours is a broker here in Phuket and she has a list of the cost,

I'm always lost for words when I see things like this happen I have no explanation as to why would someone do this, poor defenseless little thing, may she RIP little one, so sad. Makes me always think of my little grand daughter who is also not 3 yet and how she brings so much joy to the house every day even though she is in the UK, she's a little monkey it's lovely to see them growing and developing everyday, thank god for what's app and Facebook, we get our daily dose of photo's and video's and put's a big smile on my wifes face, Once again little one RIP,

Give me a knife I'll cut his head off,

I know where it goes but I didn't want to say here, one guy here in Phuket has been at it for years still at it as far as I know and has been raided a couple of times, there was a time here in Phuket were they had dodgy stamps,

Huge project coming up right on the beach front in Rawai, Russian money Im sure behind there is all Russians be like little Moscow soon

I heard also Bali has a few, Russians

Nothing seems to happen to the agents, perhaps if they got 10 years might make them think long and hard, maybe others involved,

There has been a couple of places raided were Russians are involved one was tour shop and the other car rent, and they had work permits,

Happened here in Phuket a few weeks ago right near where I live 2 of them on a bike, Dead,

I met one a couple of months ago and he was here studying English I didn't think it was possible,

I have met a few over the last 18 months, one worked for a oil company, another owned a crypto exchange who lived in Dubai, a few work online doing what I don't know, then there is the dodgy ones, Here in Phuket there has been a few of these taxi app's started up looks like Russians, one I know definitely is, if you watch FB groups, many car rent and bike rent, properties for rent anything to make a few quid. A friend of ours is a hairdresser (Thai) and she was telling us that we have Russians hairdressers working from home also doing nails, earlier this year up around Bang Tao area 3 of them got caught running a salon from home,

I wonder how many farang are actually banned from entering Thailand for overstaying? I know of 2,

I'm not as smart as you

Have you seen the price of a bottle of wine in a 5 star hotel in Thailand? Me and the wife went out for a meal in Chalong, nice place right on the water, 180 baht for a bottle of chang, a little shop in my soi is 60 baht, maybe if they stopped that nonsense people would buy more,

Nope we haven't forgot, I drive by there everyday, infact less than an hour ago and I always look over were it happened, her name is Irina Pustovalova, annoying no further information came out to follow up, I even saw the morning after it happened,

Thats good the landlord is doing it for your stop your moaning, while they are there get them to check the roof space, I never thought they eat plasterboard, but they do,

I go to the beach a few mornings a week, the other day I was sat on the wall and I noticed a few tourist leaving their belongings on the beach while they went down to the water,
