Hmmm. Many years ago I used to do that a few times to be with a girl I really liked from Sahara in Soi Cowboy. The barfine was a huge ripoff at the time so I just waited around the corner at the 7-11 and we met up around 3:20. I still gave her plenty for the night so I didn't consider myself a CC, but I resented being ripped off by the bar. It was one of the "Arab" bars known for their over the top charges. Earlier in the night I would drink at and have fun with the girls at several of the other bars in Cowboy or Nana. I never spent much money in the "Arab" bars.

I agree, Sometimes I used to give the dancers a nice tip just to make them happy. I did not expect anything in return and was happy with a nice smile. Not all generosity is about bragging.

I just asked my wife if I am jai dee but I think her knowledge of the Thai language is inadequate. She keeps saying dum instead of dee, and I cannot seem get her to to say dee. I might have to send her back to school.

Why are you in any other country other than Thailand?
Dexxter replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Living back in Australia most of the time now.... 1. Clean Air. Cooler weather. Pleasant evening walks. 2. Comfortable apartment and facilities (although I miss the BKK rooftop pool) 3. I am a citizen so no reporting, TM30, visa issues, etc. I don't feel like a criminal here. 4. I can drive my car here quite safely. I love long road trips. 5. English is easier than Thai for day-to-day living, especially bureaucracy. 6. Much cheaper wine and I don't drink much beer usually. 7. Better quality meat especially beef. 8. I have a much better computer setup in Australia than in Thailand. 9. Family and friends are here. 10. Free health care. 11. Probably other things as well that I can't think of right now. -
I better tell my Thai wife she should have no interest in me because I am 41 years older than her. We have only been living a full life together for 7 years complete with plenty of good sex so perhaps it is too early to tell if she is really interested in me. I'll tell her that GinBoy2 (not GinBoy1) on the internet says she should not be interested in me and see what she says.. By the way, she is younger than all 4 of my children from my farang ex-wife.

Whoops! Avoiding cultural faux pas when visiting Thailand
Dexxter replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
So many times when I disagree with something my Thai wife say, her response is "You not Thai. You not underscore". (understand) End of argument. -

British Police say domestic abuser may be in Thailand

I hear the Chinese have been in the local news quite a lot lately for being the "wrong" type of person. It's not just Western people who can be undesirable. -
Rejection of passengers tops list of complaints about Bangkok’s cabbies
Dexxter replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
If I ever needed to catch a taxi near the red light tourist areas (Nana, Cowboy, Patpong) I would always start walking away from the area and flag down a passing cab. I would rarely use one that was standing nearby waiting for a fare. Passing cabs always turned their meters on for me. -
