Could be just very favourable finance terms by the yank brands, as the majority of natives buy on credit.

Baaaaaaah, Baaaaaaaah.

When the wind is in a certain direction we get water in the house. Blows water under the tiles.

Crap set up.

I figured I'd be let go at the job cos I'd just lost interest in the whole corporate bullshit machine and the drudgery of the Central Line crush from Holland Park to Bank stations every morning. I jumped before being pushed, sold the flat, invested the profits and left.

Having never been to Thailand before, I had no intention of staying but the cost of living in Bangkok - even a Western lifestyle - was (and remains) considerably cheaper than my corner of West London and the local food was cheap and plentiful, I decided to hang on for a bit.

The women - well, the majority of those available to foreigners - were not part of the decision to stay.

I've had no shortage of female attention or company in any country.

Interesting. But why Bangkok and not, say, Mexico City?

Murder rate would have put me off.Murder rate would have put me off.

After the two years, sorted myself out and moved up-country with my wife (not BG)

Why did you mention that your wife's not a bar girl?

No

Well khun nut is in a whole league of new trouble now

I wonder what would be the general attitude toward non-Thai's if the social fabric did start to decay due to a food shortage,

Would it become us and them ? would there be a clear racial divide and attitude and one not necessarily positive ?

Would "ferangs" become targets because they would generally be considered to have more ?

I believe they eat Farangs in Isaan,I've seen a few girls licking their lips and looking at me in Udon Thani!

My second choice for my baby girl was Emma which would have become Emm. Emma has become popular in the states.

I live on my wife's farm, it's in her name because it's her farm.

Jeez, why do you guys all marry women who own nothing, then buy them everything?

From all answers and discussions, this is really the naked truth!

So you are basically poncing a life from a Thai?

Well done.

I have an unopened box of 160 in the cupboard . I don't drink tea BUT she does .

We could start an auction here , if it goes high enough she might part with them.

I think the USA went to all gasohol some time ago.

many men here meet g/f /wife at bar, i really don't understand how you can call a prostitute your g/f / wife because she is up for sale to anybody who has money for pay short time,,, can any one tell the truth to your family that your new wife, g/f is a prostitute and i was customer number 4 that night?

So how many ladies have you had your way with for no payment ?

Did all these ladies you fooled with tell their future hubby and family what you//they got up too.?

Perhaps you think working girls have a previous employment tattoo on their butt.

That you even need to ask such a ridiculous question speaks volumes about your character....

So then, how many ladies have you paid to have sex with? You are right that prostitutes dont have a previous employment tattoo on thier asses,though in your case it sounds like that could come in handy. There are many, many men in Thailand that dont have to pay for sex. Yes, thats right there are women out there, even in Thailand that like to have sex just becuase it feels good and they are actually attracted to the other person!!!!! Oh, you may need to go on a couple of dates and even buy them dinner THE SLUTS!!! ?Thats right, just like in America, England or even Germany a woman likes to be taken out and shown a good time...that may involve you footing the bill, and it may not. I have had to pay , had situations where its split 50/50 and been taken out and paid for by the woman...you see its not all black and white. Not all women are the same, not all women are out to take you for a ride ( well at least not in the way you are probably thinking)

Hey, dont get me wrong having the option to pay for sex when needed is a good one. Just dont get the normal process of meeting people of the opposite sex mixed up with what happens in a go go bar. A lot of men in Thailand lose perspective. And yes there are working girls in night clubs and other places to...infact you can meet them at Lotus. If you dont have a decent enough bullshit detector to spot a working girl then i pity you. Must mean you get the normal process of meeting women mixed up with the transaction required to buy a working girls time. Like the guys you see walking around Sukhumvit holding their short time girlfriends hand as if its....what? I have no freaking clue, but are they not aware of how ridiculous it looks?

Heres to all the blokes out there that have a good Thai woman in their lives. Dont let all the negative rants on this and other such forums get to you.

PS. Never paid a lady for sex, never been in a girly bar. As for rants, this is a chat venue, a rant now and again is cool, after all it's only written words.

I could be wrong but it seems your foot is now fully functional and you are now missing ''something''.

Now me, not a footy person but they are out there. ........................................

I tiled around cabinets so bugs can't find a way to the backs.

I rather die than freeze any more

I don't know what part of the country you come from, but I found the weather in England to be generally pleasantly mild, so long as your windows and doors were properly sealed and double-glazed, and you wore a good woolen coat when going out in winter,

You can't all have lived in Stornaway, surely?

SC

many men here meet g/f /wife at bar, i really don't understand how you can call a prostitute your g/f / wife because she is up for sale to anybody who has money for pay short time,,, can any one tell the truth to your family that your new wife, g/f is a prostitute and i was customer number 4 that night?

Because I couldn't afford 10k baht for a shag/screw.

It seems to me that there's a lot of double standards here. In the West, in case of a divorce, the wife get's 50%. So assuming the house is Gbp 200,000, the wife gets Gbp 100,000. Fair, right?

Here in Thailand, a house will ONLY cost you what, Gbp 30,000? And some of you guys, want all the advantages and conveniences of having a wife and yet not willing to let her have this miserly Gbp 30,000 in case you get divorced? Seems very unfair on the Thai lady, if you ask me.

Yes, the videos are cheap here lovelaos.

Yeh, it's called The Gym.

Cos l was skint.

You can't live in Thailand with no money. Still have to eat and have a roof over your head.

Cos l was skint.

I think to much time spent with accountants instead of talking strategy eh. ...............

You should enjoy the attention, the babe will, and for sure feel accepted by the natives. The Thai folk are overwhelmed with a farang babe and really makes their day, should make your day too.

My old white legs attract the same attention which l find good fun. ............
