  1. and why on earth would I post the hundreds of hours of material that I own, that I recorded myself, to a public forum for people to enjoy for absolutely nothing in return except maybe an emoji or two? Like I said, I may upload the book free, but that will be at my discretion at a later date.
  2. Over the last few months I have been taking notes, both written & oral and a series of video recordings, documenting my interactions with both farangs and locals alike and I have decide that I am going to begin writing a book in 2025. I think that after living here for many years I now have enough material to make it fun, engaging, provocative and controversial. So far it is untitled and will be until I am well into the chapters but once it is finished and has been proof-read I will publish the title here. Hell I may even upload it for free but depending on how well it goes that may not be the case. Watch this space!
  3. Seems like you lot have never heard of a go pro before? That's what I was out with yesterday, I was doing some filming and didn't want to carry both of them with me. Not like I have to justify myself to you lot anyway but that's the way it went down.
  4. So if as you say the Russians are so skint, then why the hell does Thailand want them here so bad? It's not for their charming personalities, surely?
  5. well it shocked him and he blew his top. He was already hot under the collar so maybe a farang asking him what's wrong just tipped him over the edge!
  6. and I have said many times on this forum since I joined my name is not bob. I'm not even going to say what it is again as I'm tired of repeating myself.
  7. They are genuine nutcases. Thailand must be barking mad for letting this lot in unchecked. Money isn't everything!!!
  8. Yesterday I had a very heated encounter with a taxi driver that was bordering on dangerous. I was forced to hail one from the side of the road due to not having my phone with me (I own that part) and asked him to take me to my destination, which he agreed to, with the meter on. All was going swimmingly until the traffic started to become congested. I could see the middle aged geezer getting more and more frustrated as time was passing by. Then he started swearing profusely in Thai (obviously he didn't know I could speak it) so he was undeniably shocked when I asked him in perfect thai what was the matter? Well that's when he blew his top. Farang this, eff this, you dont understand this, my life is so hard, you too rich, why not you go back your country, how dare you speak to me in Thai, this traffic is horrible, etc etc etc. All of which I took on the chin and gave him some back in return, but then he started shouting and banging the steering wheel like a complete lunatic. So I said that's enough, pull over, I will get out here, to which he did. I paid what I owed and he went screeching off down a side street. I took a photo of his licence plate, his name badge etc and will be phoning him in today, not that it will make any difference... Grab & Bolt always for me now, it was partly my fault for forgetting the phone but those taxis that crawl curbs looking for customers can sometimes be loose cannons. Stay safe out there, folks!
  9. ...I'm still on it!
  10. Usually as a rule I never hit the tins before 12 noon. However, there is an exception to this, like if I decide to go out for a brekkie then I always have a pint served with it, never a cup of tea or coffee. That could be around 10am some days but has been as early as 08:45 during covid.. But yeah, 12 noon is my usual rule when I'm at home. Only 41 minutes to go....
  11. Sounds like the best time to go, imo How's the weather this time of year?
  12. In which language did you converse with these 'lovely folk'?
  13. A flash of brilliance? Are you having a laugh? They are dumber than a sack of rocks the lot of them and will lead this country, and its people, into (even more) financial hardship than they are currently in. Populist daydream by the man with the fake neck brace. Nothing more, nothing less!
  14. any thai women looking to get knocked up, especially those of Chinese descent, can give me a call anytime day or night.
  15. for speaking the truth? I would say he is spot on in his assessment.
  16. so you think its ok for a woman to slap a man then, just for voicing his opinion?
  17. I used to be like that and then I discovered women again. Get out there and pound a few, you will feel a whole lot better!
  18. more booze, more birds, more sun, more beaches, more food, more meds and more freedom. Now, if only the Ruskies would go back home to enjoy the snow (and the bullets) everything would be just perfect!
  19. ...i've heard the russian food is second to none in Phuketsburg!
