the point I tried to make seems to have gone straight over your head. never mind.. enjoy doing your yearly extensions at immigration. don't forget to update your tm30 now, there's a good boy! bob.

I use paragraphs. any idea why they seem to hate me and the other foreigners I know that also use paragraphs? bob.

12 for me dude, bob.

are you being sarcastic mate? bob.

get your glasses on and read it!! if I can then surely you can. I know it's a big ask for the big bird but I believe in you! bob.

I'll be around a while longer yet! it's almost time for a bevi. bob.

.....You are REALLY selling it to me mate! bob.

this one sentence carries so much weight! well said mate. I have the resources to live pretty much wherever I want.. I am my own boss. Nobody has got the whip hand over me. I am a man of Leisure now, the world is my oyster! bob.

I have. And I have decided on clean air, safe streets, functioning democracy and not being labelled an Alien. bob.

Thailand - Forever on the take. bob.

"FAILED TO UPLOAD ATTACHMENT" Now that's a crying shame!! bob.

my ticket is booked. would you like to see it? bob.

OK. that's your view. you are entitled to it. Sadly my view doesn't align with yours. it is a something burger, and the main ingredient in that burger is xenophobia. bob.

based on your posts i think it's safe to say that you are one of the better posters on AN. well thought out, articulate and informed. nice one fred. bob.

you don't do 90 reports then? what do you call that? bob.

'haa, dim of me'.. bob.

The world is a big place. Thailand is slap bang in the middle. It is far from special. It is mediocre at the very best. I prefer the upper echelons, the big hitters, high human development, democracy, clean air and safe streets. There you go, that's as much info as you are all getting about where I am heading. bob.

I wish you the best in your next move mate! at least you have the balls to get up and go.. let the chips fall where they may.. I am sure everything will work out fine for you. you seem intelligent and switched on, unlike some of the drones that have infested AN recently. bob.

Nothing. I haven't been 'happy' here for over 10 years. bob.

People owe me money. it's never the other way around. bob.

sure, let's talk. bob.

my flights are booked! that's all you need to know, Ralfy boy! where and when I go is my business. bob.

No. bob.

Thanks Brian! bob.

great post mate! I really appreciate your input. Many here think I am a troll. That couldn't be further from the truth. I am just a very disgruntled expat that has been in Thailand way too long and is ready for a new challenge. I am not going home, I am moving on to (hopefully) greener pastures. Only time will tell if that is the case, but one thing is for sure - I have given Thailand my best shot and now it is someone else's turn... I am cashing in my chips, taking my money and running off into the sunset. bob.
