Give her nothing, it never stops once you start. Issan women are interested in one thing money, money, money. Take take take. Then when they can take nothing more they chew you up and spit you out to find another poor <deleted>%%er.

It is there diet, sticky rice with meat, sticky rice with oiley omlette and sticky rice with barbeque chicken, and it is not just child portions they just keep shoving food in there mouth.

I see it with my wn child the moyher inlaw just keeps feeding him no matter what I say and you do not win an arguement with the wife when it has anything to do with the family.

Ma Ma knows best even though she can hardly write her own name.

Does she allow you to eat the eggs "runny" yourself?

Yes I love my eggs runny and we should not have any issues with bird flu or salmonella as we live in country Western Australia.

The eggs are farm fresh so should be no problems.

I have found that you cannot tell a thai woman anything especially if the F@!#$king mother inlaw is here on holidays.

Can anyone tell me that if I cook my 4 year old son 1 runny egg on toast that it is bad for him.

I cooked the family breakfast this morning when all of a sudden halfway through my son eating his runny egg my wife started saying no it is not good for young child to eat runny egg, I told that was a silly thing to say but she was adament about it.

So I am asking the question is it bad for a child or is this an old wives tale.

Me and the extended family hired a minivan from loei to Cha am for about 6 days and had a great time the driver was very polite and only sat on the legal speed limit all the time.

Took a bit longer but we got there safe and sound.

Would use him again if we had to.

There is a few bars near the Loei Orchid hotel I think the name of the street is Ruam Pattana.

Some farangs are just dumb, my wifes niece has has a English bloke she is hooked up to who happily sends money over has built her a house all the usual things.

The father of this girl is a little embarressed as she has the thai boyfriend sleeping with her under the farangs house.

Now here is the stupid thing the English farang has been warned by my wife telling him exactly what is happening under his roof but he cannot believe it so he continues to send money to this little tramp as I like to call her.

My wife is even embarressed at what is happening to this english bloke and if you are on thai visa and have read this thread believe everything my wife has told you.

My wife is from Loei a great little place 140 km NW from Udon Thani and will probably retire there when the time comes but would not hesitate to relocate to Udon Thani.

A really good sized town that has all the ammenities that you need both Western and Thai.

Sick f7894ck,

Thats all that needs to be said.

Yes I think the movie was a disgrace but it should not have caused riots.

Very thin skined, I honestly wonder what would happen if it was around the other way and there was a movie condemming the christian God.

I once cacelled a flight for the family through my travel agent and got about 95% refund, I did have travel insurance though so that would be an option.

Their is a small room on a side road near the bar area of Loei with a sign learn to speak English. The name of the road is Phanit Phatthano I hope this helps.

My wifes Mother goes every year, I hope my holidays fall around this time 1 year so that I can attend. My family say a great festival

Steak n kidney...steak n onion...steak n mushroom....steak n potato......all good

Any steak pie arroy mak mak, I have had a couple of really nice steak and chilli pies here in Australia really really good.

We had a meal at MKs the roast pork and duck was very nice, the service was good and the meal was very nice.

Ice cold Leo for me. When I first came to LOS I drank Singa. Next day I would have the shits. Now that I drink Leo no problems. 500 baht for a box of long necks.

Good value ay mate 500 baht for 12 king browns can't complain about that.

Valentines day here in Namsomnia, the road is closed both ends and our shop is in the middle, Its a two day affair, [and 2 nights], 1st night mrs sold 15 boxes of Leo, and numerours cans, 8 bottles of Chang classic and a few cans, 1 bottle of Archa, 2nd and final night, 17boxes of Leo,204 pints, lots of cans and and 11 bottles of Chang, and a few tins, 1 bottle of Archa which i drunk waiting for the Leo to cool,

Chang fills my stomach with butterflys, or thats what it feels like next morning, Leo, absolutely no problems, 4/5/6 bottles in the evening, sleep good and wake ok, so Leo is definitly the best and favorite beer in Namsom Province,,

Well said Lickey Leo is the best beer I used to average about 4 king browns a night while over in LOS and wake up fresh the next morning and go for a morning walk with a stick to protect from all the bloody dogs in Loei.

I aggree arrived 5 weeks ago and was in the hotel within 1 hour of landing and on departure a couple of days ago checked in and through passport check within the hour no complaints at all.

If you have a car the Loei Palace is only 1000 baht per night including breakfast, was there only a couple of weeks ago and it was very nice.

Robot is ok went a couple of times, I am 45 and they dont5 seem to care about your age you would enjoy it just get into the groove.

There is some nice restaurants there Larchang on the highway is very good with very good service and the lighthouse on the lake was great with a little bit of live music and they do get the crowd involved if you are willing to get up and have a sing it was good fun.

The scenery in Loei is fantastic very picturesque.

Thanks to all yhose that have replied, it gives me some good ideas am looking forward to the trip.

Thanks again

I am planning to spend 3 or 4 days in Cha Am just after songkran with the wifes family and am wondering on any nice places to see or do around the area.

I am planning to relax at the beach but if there is anything that fellow visa members can recommend would be much appreciated

Two friends of mine have been there, both guilty.

It is not good, I have seen the court system, the corruption, etc. Life in jail is easier for foreigners, a lot worse for Thais.

I actually thought it would be the other way around. Far from home locked up in a small box with with 12 other people sharing a bucket as a toilet and bath. No gym, swiming pool, television, internet access, 3 sq meals a day, cigaretes, weekend leave to go to the movies and shopping, the opertunity to obtain a universty degree (study) full medical and dental coverage and even be paid an allowance to stay. Life in a Thai gaol for a farang would be hell compared to the 5 star resorts in places like Australia.

Here here mate my Wifes brother in Thai jail in a place near Si Quew or something like that, have visited once it was not nice as chooka said nothing like the 5 star prisons in Australia I work in one so I have a bit of an idea of the standards in Aus.

I've stayed at both the Queens Garden and the Great Residence. For 1000 baht they both have pick up and delivery from the airport. Both are small hotels with clean, air conditioned rooms near one of the klongs off the river. I prefer the Great Residence, but only because there is a tiny bit more to do outside the hotel. There is a whole group of Thai cafes only a short walk from the Hotel. There is nothing to do near the Queens Garden. But, that is immaterial if you only want a place to sleep for a few hours.

The ONLY problem with the Great Residence is you MUST book on line. They no longer do walk in service.

Good to hear about the great residence, staying there Sunday week.
