    Lots of poor Thais with mental problems in rural Thailand, not just in touristy places.

    Tropical rainforests in Antartica here we come!

    Yes, if I was in UK, I would consider but I am in Thailand and do not have much Thai language skills. Most important task is to learn to speak Thai and enjoy being with my partner.

    Of course not, but when people have dementia they often say things that are not acceptable.

    Useful info, will buy good alcohol when next coming back into Thailand.

    It would help with the extreme poverty here. I live in rural Thailand. Yes, I know all Thais think we are very rich, my partner is Thai, I have this from the horse's mouth.

    OMG - 400 baht is tiny amount of money.

    Skiving is just another word for thinking deeply about your job

    I would have suggested UK as best possibility based on knowing nothing else about the person.

    Thought of another 2 singers, one is Icelandic rock band Kaleo with the amazing main singer, and the other is the Breton folk singer Denez Prigent. Both extremely good singers in radically different styles of music

    I could imagine having a brilliant long conversation in a pub with yourself, GG, and few others with lots of good ales & lagers. Now mind is going to good pubs in Britain. The most important thing it has contributed to humanity.
  13. MarkBR
    I think there are far more less engaging threads, at least GG is intelligent.

    I hear Greenland is getting warmer, you could relocate.

    Thais complain about the heat & weather as much as the British complain about the weather and the cold, and the heat.

    If I could play any musical instrument such that it sounded good, I would be very happy. Currently, only pest control companies would employ me to play musical instruments or sing.

    Just listened, and yes, I agree, it is very good music. Never heard of them before but now will listen to more

    Will listen to see if I like

    Was just thinking about this song, and Breakfast in America - loved these songs.

    Thought of another Paint it Black - original version by Rolling Stones - wonderful; cover version by Ciara set to video of Yuzuru Hanyu figure skating - wonderful
  21. MarkBR
    Beautiful

    Still good music available although due to internet and social media vast increase in people attempting music, so concomitant increase in dross. Good music is now often linked into video games. And cover versions of these songs. Legions Never Die is an example of the latter: Forestella & Kardi, both korean bands both covered it, but well done as cover versions.
  23. MarkBR
    Yes, a very good song

    Mine were about 99% mentally intact at the end. Not sure I want to be mentally intact unless the end is very very fast.

    Keep looking for good friends, good people still exist everywhere even among farang in Thailand.
