Tell us about the idols of your pre adolescent self

I also odolized John Holmes I had dreams I would be as big as him one day. As the years passed by I come to realize my dreams would never come true. -
Iranian Tourist Injured in Motorbike Accident Involving British Man
Mason45 replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
What irks me is when I turn my indicator on to turn left they keep passing me on the left side. I give plenty of warning but they don't seem to care. The ones that cut from right to left behind you at speed are real thrill seekers. I see near misses on a daily basis, since the Dolphin Roundabout was closed to traffic heading towards the beach in Naklua Road. All the motor bikes swerve right so they don't have to go up North Road to the rear of Terminal 21 to do a U turn. -

For those of you who have lived here for years?

I think many older farangs are the same as me. What I used to all night takes me all night to do now. -
You should know by now that Thais simply can't resist showing off.

In your case bob the shooting/abuse by Thais would've been thoroughly deserved. -

When there's money involved Thais will find a way to communicate irrespective where the farang comes from. -

The guy is a total a** hole but again if a Thai guy were to do the same thing the media wouldn't have a thing to do with it.- 283 replies

I've lived in Thailand for 22 years, I married my Thai wife 20 years ago. Firstly I made it a rule to only learn words in Thai that would be useful for me in the future. Most of the common words plus any number given to me, even the high numbers I know them fluently. My biggest gripe is that Pattaya especially has changed dramatically over the past decade. Maybe it's when Thaksin was disposed of being the PM. I'm not into Thai politics so don't say I'm sticking up for an alleged crook. I do know one thing the conversion rate for the Thai baht was 30% higher on all overseas currencies than what it is now. So the better the exchange rate the more tourist come. The more tourist equates to much higher earnings for the local traders. -
I don't know why he's so obsessed with big boobs as I know from my vast experiences any more than a mouthful is a waste

I used to drink with a guy years ago and I'm sure he had a python in his pocket.

How Do I Get A Mirrored Image From Laptop To Smart TV.
Mason45 replied to Mason45's topic in IT and Computers
How do I cast from the browser? Thanks. -
The other day I worked out how to to get a mirrored image from my laptop to my smart TV. I enjoy using it as I can watch the football, horse racing and greyhounds from overseas when I have a bet, using a VPN. My problem is I never opened my smart TV for a few days and now I can't open the mirrored image on my smart TV. When I open my laptop and I go to settings > blue tooth etc It shows my laptop in devices but it won't open. May I add I tried this on another laptop and it worked. I closed that laptop and when I logged on again the same thing happened to that laptop too. Anyone got any ideas?

Talk about ventilation, I got on a baht bus the other day. I had the pleasure of taking in the aroma of 2 big ass Russian sows who reeked of body odor. Maybe roll has never been introduced in Russia.

I very nearly bought a house in Kao Talo 20 years ago. In those days Kao Talo was a very pleasant place and the housing estates were in the development stage. My wife has her own small restaurant there now so I get to see the current state of the area. I'm more than grateful that the sale fell through as the current Kao Talo is a sewer. It has now been taken over by the dregs of Isarn, hence the high crime rate.

Finance Ministry Pushes 99-Year Leases for Foreigners
Mason45 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The simple solution is cut out the Thai/Foreigner ownership rule. Any foreigner should be allowed to own a property in their name. Maybe they could place a ceiling on the cost and/or land size as in houses. Maybe a one property per farang limit. Take my instance, I've been married for 22 years and I can't even be a joint property owner with my wife.- 49 replies

When is a foreigner considered a local in Thailand?
Mason45 replied to RSD1's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I agree with you Ralf I moved here in 2000 and as my wife has 7 in her family plus she has 2 daughters in their mid 40's they treat me very well.. Even the people I've got to know in my estate treat me the same. When farangs live in non tourist areas Thais couldn't care less. Many wouldn't even know what a tourist was. Tell me a country where people are readily accepted when they choose to live in another country. If I wasn't married I would've left Thailand several years ago.Thailand as it was 20 years ago was fun and friendly those days are well gone. Us residents pay the price for the rip off farangs attitude now in Pattaya. -
PM Srettha to meet Malaysian PM for peace talks
Mason45 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
The British caused this many years away as they gave parts of southern Malaya to Thailand which wasn't there's to give away. May I add Gottfrid tell me a country where Muslim migrate to and conform with the laws of that country. -
The area would be a very expensive investment to say the least if was only purchased for bars, clubs and restaurants. I even heard a rumour that Lek Villa just of Naklua Road has been penciled in for demolition

I walk past that construction site next to Cape Dara on my early early morning daily walk. When it's completed it's going to be huge. Let's hope they don't use the same architects as Cape Dara as it's plain ugly.
