By the way the house has 16 solar panels 10kh so that will partially offset the cost and impact of the AC units

I am just building a house in Thailand which will have 9 large AC units. For me it is essential. Currently in the UK I like my room freezing. Yes bit crazy maybe retiring in Thailand but I have been so many times and I love the place. My wife is Thai and we have two young kids, so they are happy to be coming to Thailand.

Why are you people so damn nasty. Don’t you have anything better to do than deride everyone for any story you read. It was so much more pleasant when ignoramuses didn’t have a platform.

I couldn’t agree more. I’m about to retire near Buriram next year and my main priority in the location of my house build has been to stay away from other foreigners. Thais are much more pleasant.

What a bunch of racists you lot are

Perhaps someone could tell me how to close my subscription to this obnoxious group?

I didn’t realize in just joining this group just how many bigots are members. It’s not the Thailand I recognize and my wife is from Isaan and we have two young kids. I have been to Thailand more than 50 times over 40 years and have never seen or heard this and to stereotype Thailand and Thais in this way is racist pure and simple. smacking children in legal in most western countries and I sometimes smacked my kids when they were young. Don’t make out that Thailand is a hostile environment for children it could not be further from the truth. some of the stereotypes of Thais in these messages are shocking. i am about to retire to Thailand and it will be a better environment than the UK.for my kids. shocking series of comments from ugly bigots who should be ashamed
