  1. Asian food for farangs when thats what they have to eat most of the time bah.gif . Come on, farangs need a change, something they are used too.

    If you are Thai, then buy a sticky rice bamboo thingy to carry around. thumbsup.gif

    If thats what you call food ( burger king, mc craps, kfc) god help america, kon thai don,t ever fall for the multi national push to control the masses, you have the best, healthiest food in the world.clap2.gifclap2.gifclap2.gif

    Oh yeh, thats why NE Thailand is No.1 in the world for stomach cancer. rolleyes.gif
  2. Don't get your knickers in a twist?

    The "be dismissive and patronizing and pretend someone is upset when they point out an error in a calm fashion" brigade!

    The art of the subtle put down.

    Condescension is the master of all such arts, all the more enjoyable when it goes over your protagonists' head - especially if they think you are making some kind of compliment.

  3. One of those ''s''uckers hid in my gardening hat yesterday. I put on the hat and yes, bite, big lump on my bonce. The bar stuards are hard to kill too, keep coming back.

    I really hope they are an endangered species. thumbsup.gif

    I'm definitely getting slow in my old age.... I actually googled bar stuards to discover what type of creature this was - before (eventually) the penny dropped! tongue.png

    laugh.png , been told off here lately so l work around stuff. laugh.png
  4. I really like the Tiger. thumbsup.gif

    Me too, but the Tigers in the 200,000 baht price range are pretty rough from what I have seen.

    Good luck with your truck Muratremix.

    I use to own the Tiger for 7 years...I've sold it 2 years ago,but from what I see available for sale now,the price hasn't drop at all...amazing! It is an opinion,that that was the best build Toyota truck model so far....you can probably buy a '05 Vigo cheaper than '03-'04 Tiger...smile.png

    Remember that the Vigo may not look as butch as the Tiger but the Vigo has a far stronger chassis. thumbsup.gif
  5. I know at least 10 different families with either half thai half western or full western babies and kids. Each family reacts differently to the general Thai culture of giving the babies/kids a lot of attention. A few very directly tell people that they don't want their kids touched. Others don't mind and others used to mind but have compromised. Ultimately its up to you. I don't think it's a problem if you say that you don't want your baby touched. I think that most Thais mean very well and look kindly on kids but of course how you and your kid feels is what is important.

    As for the cheek grabbing and pinching - that used to happen to me as a child in Australia and I still don't get why adults used to like doing that to me as it bloody well hurt.

    My mrs does that to me now w00t.gif , she says l smell like a baby. sad.png

    Is that before or after she changes your nappy.

    After, think it the talcum powder. thumbsup.gif
