  1. QUOTE (kevozman1 @ 2010-05-18 20:22:20) I think we have to understand that education standards in Europe are much

    higher than the rest of the World and generally speaking where the most

    intelligent people come from or are educated there.

    Even though their grammar is not what it might be? ( Capital 'w' in world and redundant 'there' at the end of the sentence.)

    Being educated does not make one intelligent, and being uneducated does not mean one is not intelligent.

    Countries tend to teach their own history at school level; it is only if one goes on to study history at university that world history comes into it.

    Apoligies, I did not know my grammer was on test while posting on Thai visa

    Also smart arse you do not need to go to school or uni to learn about history.

  2. Allow 90 days if you tell your partner it will be 50 days she will then constantly never stop ringing you for the next 40 days :) .

    Generally its 9/10 weeks but we got one back in 6 weeks recently but up to you :D .

    So allow 90 days.

    What do you mean by this first sentence?

    You obviously do not have a sense of humour ?

    Do I really need to explain this ?

    Yes, I just did not understand. I do have a sense of humour but I

    did not understand what you mean.

    Just wondering as my girl is waiting for her visa and she is not

    constantly calling me.

  3. Harsh posts here. I do not think anybody would view a mature

    man with a child in a public area as anything to do with pedophilia.

    Maybe I am wrong but I would never think anything sick like that.

    The thing that will get a look is western men in their 50's and 60's

    dating women in their 20's. It is a little strange guys come on but

    I think most people will not think about it too much as we mostly

    concern ourselves with what we are doing not others.

  4. ^ Well I can tell from a lot of people's attitudes that you are not around

    my age. I mean what these goons did was stupid but in the context of things

    minor. They acted like thugs, thats it, I have seen worse when two football

    clubs play each other in London. Now as they are foriegn it would nice for

    Thailand not to act like a nation of monkeys and realise that these two are

    idiots, probably mentally impaired and far from there homeland, deport them

    and make sure they can not enter the country again.

    Instead two people (idiots) are making big news while there are some of

    the biggest scumbags in the World walking aroung Thailand, Thai and Farang.

  5. I think most of you guys posting on this thread are over 60 so I understand

    why so many posters seem to have lost focus and seem to be a senile

    state of mind.

    Oh well we won't have to put up with you old miserable gits for too much longer. :)

    Lets just hope the next group of expats are more level headed, decent people who

    have not moved to Thailand in a last desperate escape from a jilted dissapointing

    past full of hate and bitter thoughts.

    You never know the locals might even start to like us then.

  6. According to my wife; Thai TV news said the girls mother took her (the girl) to the farang's room. It's a money thing apparently.

    Again, this is according to the news on channel 3.

    It's a sad sign of the times in Chiangmai that mothers are touting their young children round town of a night time, especially round the moat near Thapae Gate. A very sad indictmemt of our times.

    This has nothing to do with the times and more to do with the average Thai person's

    morals. There are poorer places in the world but most people would rather starve

    than let some sick git do this to their kids. Thailand really needs to sort this issue

    out above all others as the place is getting a real bad name from these disgusting

    trades.

  7. My girl always seemed to be able to buy tampons in Thailand from

    any supermarket.

    As for missing tampons from your own country. Call me old fasioned

    but I do not think there is a lot of science or room for complication

    when it comes to tampons. As simple as a product can be, cotton

    on a string.

    Oh dear....................... I just realised how boring I am getting lately.

    thats intersting to know as ive never seen them in carefoure or tesco lotus when we go shopping where did she find them or edited to say big c

    Apart from buying video games or trainers I try to avoid shopping

    and pay little attention. Do not know where she got them.... but she

    had them... nuff said about this me thinks.

  8. While I was in Thailand I did not miss any products in itself.

    I missed services and shops such as libaries, video game shops

    and I missed a park to stroll around in and play a game of footie.

    but was that for a holiday or living there ?

    even i forget about things until someone says what about such and such,most thinngs you can find here but things like a tin of corned beef is so expensive and i love corned beef hash,its a uk thing.

    i miss loads of things out here but most i can either find at a high price or make myself.

    i miss stupid things like the packets of pasta you can just stick in the microwave for 6 minutes,real mint sauce to go with the lamb i buy,real horseraddish sauce to go with beef.i could go on but we all have our favorites we miss and i go back to my country and buy loads of things and forget others.

    Well I do not know whether to call 2 - 3 month periods a holiday!!!!!!!!!!!

    Somewhere in between holiday and living.

    I just do not get that excited by foods. Anyway Thai food and snacks

    beat western foods every time....................... except for chocolates and

    sweets I would have to say.

    By the way corned beef sucks.

  10. They deserve as harsh a sentence as the courts can give them. I have no sympathy for them whatsoever...

    What a compassionate, kind Christian comment. You must be a really nice person to think like that.

    I know, with chumps like these dragging them selves around various soi's in Thailand

    its no wonder western people are not particularly liked by Thai's.

  11. Yes, total idiots and they should both get fairly severe treatment...

    AFTER the murderers of Leo Del Pinto and... oh God... too many to mention! are brought to justice...

    Why is it that saying the wrong thing in the wrong place at the wrong time is a worse offence than killing someone in cold blood?

    Amazing Thailand!

    At least there is one person who's brain has not been fried.

  12. I visited Thailand for long holidays between the age of 20 - 24. I am a bit older now and hardly visit the place

    but still take a interest. I was treated Ok and did get quite a lot of attention so I know what you are talking about.

    There are some bitter people posting on Thai Visa who live in Thailand. Thing is I can understand them aswell

    as a farang you will never really be accepted even if you are doing more good for their country than they are.

    I do believe that everybody should speak the language of the country they are living in. I met some western

    people who had lived in Thailand for 7 - 8 years and could only speak about as much Thai as I could ( very basic

    Thai). I think if you speak the language you will get a little more respect and can also correct snidey remarks.
