Just wear your rainbow shirt and high heels.

Some of us seem unaware of the poverty in this country. A woman has to be desperate to cut off her hair for 2k baht. There is a market for hair, but I don't think 2k is the wholesale price for the amount she's selling.

What has changed over the last 4 years? A sudden spike in cancers, defibrillators in public places, young people suddenly dropping dead from heart attacks and strokes. Did Thais just discover alcohol? Is air and water pollution a new phenomenon in Thailand? I don't know what it is, but something has changed since 2021.

I'm short but exceedingly heavy, a lot of which is fat and a lot that isn't. A taller man would run into trouble on the 350 due to the high floorboards. I wouldn't want legs with more than a 30 inch inseam on that bike. I let a man around your height sit on my ADV to get a feel for it and he said "no way".

Is there a government inspection required after a bike is 3 years old? My Click turns 3 on Valentine's Day and the lady said it couldn't be insured beyond the end of February. I grew tired of the limitations of the Click and bought an ADV 350 a year ago this week. I logged 15,000 km on it in 5 months of touring around the country and......I missed the Click! The ADV has a great suspension and it was nice to cruise all day at 120 to 140, but man that thing is wide and heavy. The Click was way more fun in Northern Thailand on the twisty roads and there's no comparison in Pattaya traffic. I've gone back to riding it and will probably sell the ADV this month. There's a lot of useful information on this short thread; thank you for sharing it here. I've got the YSS front and rear and while an improvement on the stock suspension, I still find it lacking.

I couldn't find it either. The voice gives away the katoeys every time.

She must have inherited the money. Easy come, easy go. Someone who earned 30 million baht would have done her due diligence, sopping loins notwithstanding.

You have no idea what people do for a living and just make <deleted> up. Not a bloody clue.

How did he pay that strumpet £12 million. You pretend he's a commoner when he isn't.

No, it was for everyone.

They keep a large supply of fresh, young boys at the ready.

You might want to do an audit on the royal family and get back to us on that. Wealthy people aren't stupid: they write the tax codes then structure their revenue so that only a minimal amount is taken as income. Other sources are taxed at very favourable rates, if at all. How are their lands and other holdings taxed? They're parasites and should be stripped of their ill gotten wealth and be forced to return to the office or the fields.

A British royal parasite?

Not that long ago the story would be that a 29 year old had a stroke. A few years before that it would have been that she got Kwai Chang Cain tattoos on her forearms. Welcome to the new normal.

You can save yourself a few bob and do it yourself in the comfort of your own home. YouTube has videos made by budget conscious punters with a steady and and a frugal heart.

It makes Nirun look like the Hilton. Rent something farther out and get a motorbike. Cook your own food and you can live on 30k if you want or need to. I've sent messages to two agents in the last week with zero replies. Walking into the office has yielded the best results.

Did they touch your nether regions? The police will ask you to point to it on a doll.

He admitted that he's gay. I respect the fact that he keeps it on the low and asks about places for single men; only to get 3 pages of replies from breeders trying to lead him to poontang. The rainbow gang needs a pied piper to lead them back into the closet.

I hit that stretch like I stole my bike and the cops are after me. Take the hole shot from the light near Kiss restaurant and twist the throttle like George twisting his twink's pecker. With good timing it's a wave of green lights all the way to the turn onto Third Road. George, instead of being a bystander and a hand wringer you've got to get a bike and get into the game. What are you going to do, take buses all over the country and only see the areas around the bus terminals? You could dress up like Brando and cruise boystown on a hog. It's tragic that the geezer got killed. It certainly wasn't his fault: he was standing where one must crossing that section of road. I see it every day; usually it's people with suitcases going to/from the bus station.

Bangkok Bank is the only one that isn't on the list. I spoke to 3 different agents who used 3 different banks.

They know the score and it isn't money laundering. This will probably blow over, just like everything else does.

Give different parts of Issan a try. The people are very warm and friendly. It will make you want to improve your Thai language skills to be able to talk to them. Having transportation is important up there or you will go nuts. I'm heading up for a motorbike trip in a couple of days. There's a lot to see and hotels are dirt cheap.

Are you a practicing Jew? The internal politics there are strange and it doesn't seem like gentile filth is welcome. I worked and became friends with an Israeli guy who tried to explain the workings in Israel. The older the culture the more complex it is. He ditched Canada and moved back when his first grandchild was born.

Word is that he was playing the wailing verses from Led Zeppelin's 'Whole Lotta Love' and it scared the crap out of the locals. Someone should tell Jimmy Page about it the next time he's at the TQ.

They were doing it this morning. A songtaew stopped for the crew and a few guys on motorbikes rode around it and nearly hit the painters.
