I dont think you can afford the prices in there for a warm beer !

Last time I spotted these motorised paragliders was on the old Airport in down town Chiang Rai , normally at the weekends . There is usually 1 or 2 guys (Thai ) doing it. Maybe if you ask about near the Airport tower , thats where they hang out , you can find what your looking for .

In my opinion , theres not alot to do with the Thai's here other than the fall guy taking the rap, to at least try and keep the blame from the real hit men who were Japanese. I dont think Thais have given this story much thought , considering one of the big mafia bosses in Japan has already paid out compensation to the murdered mans family for ordering the Hit . The chances are that the Thai man who was the guide was all he was, a guide to take the hit men to killing field. Since the Thai man gave himself in as the hit man , I wouldnt be suprised if his payment was quite vast and enough to pay his way out of jail , the police and for him to move on to another province until everything settles .

Start executing more prisoners , such as the drug runners and then there would be space everywhere to more grow plants .

ricos is/was across the street from the condotel and was more of a restaurant than a bar....he served some very good food at very low prices and was/is an extraordinary host who tried his very best to make sure that his customers left satisfied....I only wish that the restaurants I go to other places were as good service/price/quality/value for the money....hopefully the new owner will carry on.I've been to Chiang Rai 30 times+, and I'm not even sure, where it is. Perhaps, along tht street with the bars with no customers, the massage girls stuffing their faces all day, and the laundry that makes your clothes smell like cat urine. 15,000 Km is a long way to travel to pay Western prices for poor man's food.
I had been by the Beach Club; I didn't know it was called Rico's. I wouldn't pay 200K for it. The land is probably worth quite a bit.
The land is owned by Thais . The rent for the place I believe is about 5 or 6,000 per month , which is very reasonable . The price for the premises on the land , which includes the bar , kitchen , restaurant , wash rooms etc is about 1.5m bht Key money . If Rico was to take everything out there would only be the land on the corner . You are paying for the complete set up and continuation of Ricos bar and restaurant .
I am not sure as yet that there has been anyone to buy .

Thanks guys but I've opted to just head south and will go to koh lanta instead. Cue the 'where are the twinkle bars on koh lanta' thread coming soon to TV.
There is a lot of twinkling going on down there

If a farang has come on holiday , met the girl of his dreams, its no different where ever he meets her . Sadly maybe he didnt kow of the scams that go on here , who would ? Its the same when tourists come , stay at a fairly decent hotel , then die of some weird poisoning, who who have thought that ? People go to travel agents, book tickets and come , their not all arm chair masterminds like most of you lot. Reading some of the posts on here and the bitterness towards this Australian man , shame on you . Maybe you are just as bitter as you were ripped off years ago or maybe you have never been here . It happens too often that farangs get ripped off , but saying that , there really isnt any advice you can give , as you never think it would happen to you , and thats even of you know what goes on here .
My advice is , Never get involved with a woman here other than for 1 night , then send her packing , before she packs everything of yours and sends you home with nothing .

Not wanting to break any forum rules(No3) for a change , I will say that I like to sit in bars with lots of lovely ladies , having a beer and looking at the night sky , keeping a watchful eye on passing stars and hoping to see an occassional full moon

Hi Bifftastic , I can never remember individual cases when writing on Thaivisa, I never take offence to what others write in reply to my comments . I wish others didnt take the forums so seriously , its all tongue in cheek . Thanks to you and other TV members for your kind words. The sad part in a way for me is that I had no inclination over the past years that anything was wrong with me at all . Even now I look a picture of health and feel fine other than the pain from the operation wound on my abdomen and the usual backache ive had for years . So to be told you've only got three months left , you think hes got to be joking ? When the evidence it put to you then the picture changes in a split second and you think OH-Sh*T.
The next part is dealing with what you have been told . I had tears for about 30 minutes with some close friends and loved ones and then its move on . Now I am getting all of my finances sorted out and trying to claim any pensions that I have in hope that they can pay out early due to the terminal illness that I have . Knowing how things work , I can at least get it all sorted before my death because I know its very doubtful that the payout will be before I kick the bucket , but hopefully my wife will get the benefit .
I will continue to post on here as I have done for 13 years , unless of course I get barred again for something that half the time I dont know why , it always looks ok when I write it but each of us can read something different into what is written and persieve it differently than what was meant . Open thoughts , open mind.
Good luck to you in the future .
Sun.

Several restaurants on the lake to pass some time while having a munch . On the far side of the lake , looking at the mountains , there is a very nice temple that sits high up over looking the lake (sorry I do not know the name of the place ) . Not sure about the fishing on the lake , never seen anyone do it but the whole area has many fish farms and all the restaurants tend to serve local fish and shell fish on the menus .

Ok , here goes. I went to the hospital today to have the steel staples removed from my abdomen , the Dr said it looks fine but a little bit hard due to swelling , I just hoped it wasnt an infection . I then asked one question , Benign or malignant , he said malignant . Next question was how bad is it , VERY . How long have I got ? He said he wanted me to speak to another specialist at 1pm . So , the staples are out , I went away knowing its very serious and then went back to see the other Dr at 1pm.
He read through everything , said you have stage4 Cancer and its EVERYWHERE . That came as bit of a shock other than finding out the cancer is malignant . So what is going to happen , how long have I got Dr , I asked . 3 months . If you take any form of radiation / Chemo you can possibly extend your life if you are lucky to 6 months or possibly to the end of the year. Percentage of making it to Christmas - 20%. I asked about if he thought it would be worth while taking any form of possible life extending treatment , his answer was NO, its gone too far , without anyone knowing and nothing shown up on any of your hospital blood tests taken over the years . The Cancer that I has hides itself until the last minute and then causes the host , being ME, to experience something unusual , and in my case , the pain in the chest where I thought I might be having a heart attack.
So my friends, thats about it in a nutshell . Over the next 2 days I have to be in the hospital again for another test to find the source of the Cancer. If it has started lets say in the stomach , then I will be gone sooner than later , so each organ has a different time frame . If its the Liver and considering my Liver is in pretty good shape other than the cancers attached to it , I may live slightly longer . So thats the tests for tomorrow and I have another to check the colon also , im not sure why .
Then after getting all that news , I headed off home and went to sleep for 3 hours ,. woke up and put on my shorts and in doing so my stomach started ousing from the wound. I grabbed some tissue and stuck that on , along with some gause that I had in a medical box, taped it down with yellow tape and headed back to Sri Burin . The cleaned the wound , put those strip things across to hold it together then dressed the wound with gause . I was then told to take anti-biotics , 2500 bht . I just went home and took what anti biotics I have here and wil go to the Chinese Pharmacy in town to get some stronger ones, as the last thing I want to do is die of a <deleted> infection , . The pain from the wound isnt so good either but at least I am back there tomorrow for them to look at it again .
So my friends , I am oviously a little bit sad that its coming to an end but what I will say is that right throughout my life I have had fun , I have done so much in my life , achieved some things but lived outside of the box . I have always lived every day where ever I have been in the world and anything I have done has been done to the MAX.
At least now I can try and get a few things sorted out here and see people I want to see and organise my own funeral and wake . I was thinking about having my wake before my demise , so I can at least see who turns up, hahahahahahah
I am not allowed to drink alcohol but I am sure I wil fit in a couple of beers somewhere down the line but not just yet .
Please when you see me , treat me as you always have , I feel ok , I look good as always , thas what the ladies always tell me , so let me be . I appreciate all of your heart felt wishes and good luck but I dont want you lot depressing me every day when you see me I will be as strong as I can , do what I can and let time take its course until the end.
I do intend to go to a few places out of Thailand with possibly some close friends , such as the Philippines and Cambodia , they have always had a spot in my heart , so I think to have some fun there maybe will be just what the Dr ordered , so to speak .
I will update you over the next couple of days to what the hospital finds out .
regards to all
Sun.

Does anyone know what happened to the Thai Tour Guide ? He was a regular in the Coffee Hub and was seen many a time . I found him to be quite a nice guy and when he hadned himself in as the hit man , I think many people were suprised , especially as he handed in the so called weapon he used , which turned out to have nothing to do with the "Hit ". I think he was a paid fall guy !!

Put the money in the bag QUIETLY , was he expecting 10bht bits ?

Thanks Sheryl for your view , I agree .

Sananbin Road? Makes me thing of Hom Doi. And days long gone by... Lots of new entertainment places on Kasalong Road and in Ban Du. I haven't been to them, and think they're for a bit different sort of entertainment. Haven't been to the disco road either, recently - not since you could still smoke in the Sperm Club.
The ladies still smoke
