LOL- Plainly not a DHSS pension (UK).

I guess what I really wanted to say is that is there are plenty of people under 40 here who make very nice livings, or at least, like myself, comfortable ones. (Though I turned 40 two days ago so I'm on your side now)

By the look of those places, they're not actually in Ratchaburi- but Photoram- about 20 km up the road from Rat city.

What? You old gits manage to survive on your DHS pensions don't you?

Don't slay me just kidding.

Though I'm sure some do.

An interesting idea. It might be interesting/ helpful if you could break down the individual words.

E.g. AFAIK Responsible, รับผิดชอบ - 'rab pit chawp' translates literally as 'receive, incorrect, like'. No matter how hard I try, I can't shoehorn it into English. Thai friends I've asked just shrug and say 'mai dai'

I'm not sure about กับข้าว though. Gab- with; Khap- rice

The other rice one probably alludes to the historic obsession with rice.

I think this should be a good topic.

Is there a difference if they give up their supplier? No mention of that here.

Well there is the map, but not many members had pinned on it when I last looked.

Nope. Time for you to leave I think. Otherwise you might turn into one of those bitter old expats we hear so much about.

I drive my hi-so Chinese-Thai wife counter flow on my motorbike without wearing a helmet or using lights.

Never used to do that back home.

^^TV just keeps getting more and more bizarre!

LOL- I still teach the WH- 'reporter questions' as just that- Imagine you're a journalist etc.

Sadly, journalists seem to have forgotten them these days.

I'm no journo but I agree with you entirely Mark.

P.S. Could the BBC PLEASE stop splitting infinitives. Sorry-

Some guy got very drunk in a bar one night and the barman helped him into a cab to get him home. Anyway the next day the guy with an awful hangover went back to the same bar.

The barman laughed at him for being so drunk. And the guy said, I know, I was so drunk that when I got home I blew chunks.

The barman said, don't be ashamed many people throw up after drinking to much.

And the guy said, no you don't understand, Chunks is a guy I met on Thaivisa!

LOL

Pop quiz. How many in the 2nd photo are fellas?

I'm sure you mean +5555555555

Yes, but then I'm the 11th Viscount of Winchester.

EDIT: Got my name wrong.

Ya, I know him. He is the guy who lost Malaya and Burma to the Japanese. But I thought he died in 1950.

Oh bugger!

Probably the easiest and quickest route would be to get a couple of the local likey-lads to go snake hunting for you.

Really? So if your computer JUST shut down, how are you posting? Are you on a different computer?

Step 1: Can you boot?

OK- Thanks- I would have imagined it would have routed through the google servers.

VF I reckon I owed you one.

Sorted.

I've been too scared to click 'promote to article' so far, from fear of making myself look an absolute tool, yet again,

This is one of the most messed-up threads I've EVER seen on TV!

Well done all involved.

(Except the moany old golf one was better).

Wouldn't using google translate distort the results quite a bit?

Yes, but then I'm the 11th Viscount of Winchester.

EDIT: Got my name wrong.

They're cute.

Yes- I must have been a bit slow off the mark, spotting the quote marks when this headline came to my mobile. No biggy, this kind of thing is quite common on TV headlines these days, and it does look like a direct quote from the phuket paper. Hardly seems to rate messaging me about rhough.

It's my manager's responsibility if I don't perform. Of course. His job is to make me perform or replace me with someone who can/ will.

^^Huh? It's his job to make sure that they DO perform.
