  1. it is what it is
    why are you using a derogatory term to refer to a female?
  2. it is what it is
    yes. go to a shopping mall and find a phone shop. next
  3. it is what it is
    yes, it's enforced, and quite rightly so. though, at around 500 GBP it's hardly a lot of money so it's a kind of pointless requirement.
  4. it is what it is
    jeez, if you can't afford a border run then maybe thailand isn't the place for you.
  5. it is what it is
    why don't you ask her?
  6. it is what it is
    What I do object to is the "Melly Klismas" music starting in September/October! ...and, in some places, going on into january, or even february

    OP, you don;t know what you're talking about... thai's have definitely won medals, i remember one guy returning and presenting his medal to his majesty
  8. it is what it is
    clearly, you do care because a) you read the thread, and b) you took the time to respond.
  9. it is what it is
    always choose a female, in 25+ years never had a problem. must be something about you 🤭
  10. it is what it is
    1.5% is peanuts, i'm getting 5.4%

    She instigates mayhem, usually around midnight when the two are tanked up with their booze. quite a few foreigners in thailand have the same trait
  12. it is what it is
    Surprised that I can't find anything in the news yet? probably because the monsoon isn't newsworthy
  13. it is what it is
    au contraire, i have a fob, but within the fob is... a key
  14. it is what it is
    Last night, I joined what I thought was a queue to order food and waited patiently behind a gentleman for about 5 minutes, while the staff ignored me. A Thai man walked up, spoke in Thai, and was served immediately. quite right too, back home i come from a heavily touristed area and for sure i get preferential treatment over the riff raff. next.

    hybrid cars seem a logical solution. need to reduce the use of fossil fuels - hybrid cars do this need to remove range anxiety - hybrid cars do this i don;t believe EVs are the future, hybrid cars are a very effective stop gap as we develop the next, more appropriate, technology.
  16. it is what it is
    it wasn't the slippery highway that caused the accident, it was the actions of the driver, and possibly the lack of servicing of the vehicle.
  17. it is what it is
    someone in the uk used my credit card while i was in thailand, as i have transaction updates on my phone i knew right away and contacted my bank, HSBC, they were efficient and professional, it was only about £50GBP but they cancelled the debits so i lost nothing, and cancelled and replaced the card. i rarely use my credit card, mainly for flight booking, so am unsure how it was cloned. was impressed with my bank's prompt and effective action.
  18. it is what it is
    Thai post website doesn't have (or I can't find) UK specific info and the est delivery time is very vague - 5-28 days or something. that's a pretty good rule of thumb, whether it's a problem on the thai side or uk side, or the bit inbetween, i don't know. having said that 7-10 days would be the norm, but don;t count on it.
  19. it is what it is
    Regulations would prevent this kind of tragedy. they wouldn't. effectively enforced regulations might help prevent some tragedies, but education and the application of common sense is also needed.
  20. it is what it is
    no they don't. if they want money they are not wealthy. have you dated any genuinely wealthy thai women? i have, several, the last thing they wanted from me was money. tbh, i've never paid money to any woman to be my friend/gf, thai or otherwise. i don't know why this site is so full of guys who need to pay someone to be their friend/gf, it's really quite sad.
  21. it is what it is
    when looking for a farang, bald fat tattoos if he happens to be old as well it's a bonus ability mimic their partners atrocious pidgin english a ++
  22. it is what it is
    simply being born in the uk is winning the lottery, why would you throw all the advantages away? keep a uk address, keep a uk bank account, keep registered with a gp. only an idiot would completely cut ties for, with all due respect, thai banking and medical care.
  23. it is what it is
    i met her on a dating site, never met her, she's a nurse, and she works in a bar in pattaya. i'm going to marry her. either a trol or an idiot. or both.
  24. it is what it is
    didn;t the car have headlights? back home i live in the countryside the roads are completely dark at night, despite this, amazingly i manage to never crash
  25. it is what it is
    not sure the seller is the 'thick' one. your mistake picking a process where you were unable to QC, not a thai problem, can happen anywhere. be more pro-active, less 'assuming' everything will be ok, take control. caveat emptor.
