You forgot to mention that you are a very modest person

Perfect match

I agree. I know you cannot generalize, but I have observed the number of Thai women who quickly move onto an another man who has more resources than the previous guy. It’s still amazes me the number of foreign men that marry bar ladies or ladies connected to the sex industry. They take the ex bar Lady back to their own country. Tell everyone she worked in 7/11 or was a housemaid at a hotel or she was a shop assistant. Heard it all before. They have ex sex worker written all over them.

Exactly

Why get upset when I give my opinion? I stayed there for a while and could not warm to the place. Some bar ladies I have met working in Pattaya, Hua Hin, Nana, and Phuket that came from Roi Et stated it was a boring place and their aim was to catch a wealthy Farang whilst entertaining

Exactly,

Two good things about Roi Et, (1) departure lounge at the airport (2) the road out of town

You are 100% correct. How many farmworkers, street vendors, day laborers, taxi drivers, food, delivery, people, transport drivers, etc. etc. etc. would be able to take advantage of the discounted scheme.?

Go to 7/11, cheaper. You are talking about bar prices.

The government should introduce horizontal folk dancing. That would draw large crowds for sure.

If the story is fiction, which I’m sure it is, I still got a great laugh lout of it. You have a great sense of humor. I am glad you portrayed the character as a Pommy not an Aussie. Great writing, keep it up

I’ve been to Ko Samui twice. This was just before Covid struck. Stayed in the.Lamai Beach area, very nice I used to chuckle to myself at the number of “pirates” walking around the area. Older guys cloned as pirates. Wearing bandannas, white haired goatee beards, some with “Hulk Hogan” type mustache, large earring or a plug in one ear, heavily tattooed arms, wearing wife beater singlets some with the Union Jack blazen on the front of their singlet. Does anyone know if these guys are still getting around dressed as above?

Travel insurance is a necessity. But you would be surprised how many people do not declare pre-existing illnesses. Also insurance companies look for every avenue to decline a claim.

I have been to two islands, Koh Samui and Koh LAN. Twice to Koh Samui, on both occasions before the outbreak of Covid.. I stayed in the Lamai Beach Area, very nice. I was humoured by the number of pirates walking around. Old guys wearing bandanas, large earring one ear, mustache, goatee beard, or a Hunk Hogan look alike mustache blended into the goatee. All with tattoos on their arms, Wearing wife beater singlets, some with the Union Jack blazing on front of the singlets. they look like they were all cloned Do these pirates exist today?

That was my first impression of him
