My Russian wife has been searching for a Bluegrass banjo instructor for the past 6 months with no success.   She is doing well with just Youtube training but she wants some validation from a real instructor.  She speaks English and Russian and a little Thai.  Is there anyone in Pattaya or Jomtien that teaches banjo???

 

thanks for any assistance!

I just renewed my daughters online using the government website it was easy

Eventually a police man turned up and halted the taxi they had just jumped on and I tried to explain that she had stolen my partner's purse days before and to take her to the police station where they can see the report my partner filed previously. The police man just asked if I had everything in my pockets, and I tried to explain again but he just waved the taxi to go with the thieves inside.

This is the bit that I find disturbing. How do victims get justice with this attitude?

If you find this disturbing, what do you think about the police's reply in the thread My Friends Robbed At Their Home While They Slept !.

The police situation in Pattaya really needs to get sorted, otherwise this is going to the dogs.

This happened to me, i was on an empty baht bus with my wife and baby, four girls got on and started fussing over the baby while the girl next to me stole my PDA from my hip case.

I like to stock up in Villa Market in Pattaya before returning to Isaan, it works for me

im sure the issues I face are not new and many here would have walked down a similar path.

I'm keen to pursue a relationship with a girl I love. I'm Australian, she is Thai.

Everyone knows building a new relationship is difficult as it is without adding the following.

• Being non professional, my abilty to earn a worthwhile income in Thailand appears to be very limited.
  
• I have a few years to go before reaching retirement age, and probably need to continue generating foreign income.
  
• Thai Visa restrictions appear to limit my access to three months each year.
  

All I want to do is live with my new partner and see where the future takes us.

I don't think bringing her to my country is the answer.

Taking her out of her environment and isolating her from her family would probably destroy what we have.

The Family is her life.

What should I do?
