If I am asked as to where my income comes from, they will be informed to contact the tax office, as that is their domain.The only thing immigration can possibly ask for is the 800/400K as proved in a bank, the rest of my income is none of their damned business.

A very narrow minded view of how to fix the perceived problem.

So why do you insist on taking her there? She doesn't like the place, you obviously don't like the place. I'll give you a tip for free, STAY AWAY!

A total dereliction of duty. That to my mind is a CRIMINAL act.

Try to alternate a bottle of beer with a bottle of water. The visits to the toilet will increase but so will the number of beers. What's not to like!?

Sounds like a try at enhancing a little history?

Lawyers/solicitors, I would agree. However, I believe you are being unfair to many Thai wives. I would definitely trust my wife's judgment, as opposed to many of the bar stool lawyers up and down the country.

You do tend to run off at the mouth, George. I have to wonder just what is between your ears!

Possibly the guy was thinking.... should I deck this berk.... Na, it ain't worth the bother!

You may well be correct, but taring everyone with the same brush is not the way, or are you trying to cover your own rear end!?

Well blow me down with a feather. A mouth with a spoon to stir. I could go on but you ain't worth the effort.

When a policeman stops you and demands B200 because he can, how easy would it be to get him to do your bidding if a few thousand Baht was offered?

Not forgetting the blue rinse Thai guy I saw yesterday!

Best of luck explaining who Bin Laden was.🤩

Where can one buy Bounty Bars? Haven't seen one of those in many years😃

It keeps the dullards off the streets and gives them something to do! But don't tell anyone I said so, or there will be crowds on my doorstep baying for blood🫢

& CofE.

It sounds like environmental waste. Or, sod the environment, its only waste

At leat it would have come out clean😄

There will not be a democratically elected government in Thailand in my life time. Perhaps in 2150, but I will be all out of breath by then.🤣

That sounds like overkill, BUT!

The price quoted for the cataracts treatment is about par. The over night stay is a fleece. I have had both eyes done for cataracts about a month apart and was in and out within 3 hours on both occasions. Bangkok Hospital Khon Kaen Dr Pennapar Jampathong...First class sevice.

You could try a 7 day course of Trimethoprim from the local pharmacy. It is still possibly available over the counter. Are you a big coffee drinker? That 'could' possibly be a contributing cause.

Its not too bad around where I live, but across the main road there is a cut thru which is used by a number of people. Had occasion to go that way a while back and the rubbish was piled high consisting of old building cast offs to plastic of all kinds and general household waste. This over a stretch of at least 100 yards and 20 or so feet back from the road edge. A short distance further along are what look like well used eateries, but I for one would not consider feeding my dog there.

In all my travels in Thailand I have seen one, YES ONE, small town where the locals took pride in there surroundings. Can't tell you the name but on the road between Phuwiang and Nong Bua Lamphu. The road was clean, no rubbish to be seen. There were bins outside every house and each one was painted red and white. All the houses and yards were neat and tidy and the whole place looked well cared for. It made such an impression I have never forgotten it. What it is like now I wouldn't know as this was at least 15 years ago. But it just goes to show it can be done.
