Come and live in the sticks,no proplems with keeping up with with the 'Jones' with the question of land it all depends if you trust your wife ,I have no proplem with that.Built our home on one rai of land in a village (paid 30,000 baht for the land),bought some next door built a house (put the house and land in the grand childrens name) at the moment it's rented out ,helps with school fees.Money wasted I don't think so,so I would say BUY not rent why pay for some other peoples property.

Is this one of those crack downs on the crack downs? or the hub of hub things?

So the nest time BIN pulls me over and starts to extort me i will ask him to produce his signed copy of integrity pack?

or when i go to get something done and they start to click fingers under the table i will again ask them to show me the pack?

Man, people must be really really bored in the government

You make it sound like a daily occurrence. I have lived here for five years and not run into that problem once. That is not to say it isn't out there. But to continually put your self in situations where it is happening is a matter of choice. I my self choose not to.

Once again we start some thing good. Let us hope it sticks around this time.

I think you should get more :jerk:

Never seen so much ignorance. Foreigners can't own property in Thailand, end of story.

MMM if thats the case then what is a condominium???

what is the % of the land owned by the foreigners in these condos try selling your bit of land,you can't.

How many men make good husbands after being with a bar girl??

Simple - just keep an UK address.

Not quite so simple all passports are scaned when you leave the UK,and also when you enter another country,not forgeting new UK passports have a micro chip in them and so big brother is watching :jap:

Thaksin at it again.A gift from the north

Are they classed by the Thai. Gov. as tourist and added to their 'numbers'??

Before the start of the of the rice season my wife decided to use part of the rice fields to build a large pond ( about 1 rai it has an under ground spring to feed it) great ,no rain at the start of the season use the pond water to get the rice started ,now it is full to the top with the spring water and the heavy rain so I am sorry Bangkok I will have to pump it out and send it down to you :jap:

Life any where in this world is what you make of it,I've worked all my life ( since I was 15 ) retired early now reaping the benifits,time for another chang )

I also love Jomtien and there are no sad people living there

Posession of a mobile phone and some condoms. A heinous crime indeed! Good to see the police are cracking down on the big crooks.

Take it the mobile was there because they couldnt source any Mars bars, will the mobile phone be charged as an accessory?

Faithfull and Stones

And FREE Wellies for all Aussies

DK

DK, what the bloody hel_l are Wellies? You wouldn't be referring to gumboots now, would you?

I do believe you Aussies refer to them as Gumboots

DK

The trouble with some people is they have never had the full fillment of running up the mountian after your four legged girl friend (and suffer from ' wellie slap ') and that she has a boy friend with a 'big horn'.

Why do the yanks think that no one loves them 'I love you all x x x x

My and I flew with Jet airways,very good flights,food sort of curries ( but they are both Indian airlines so to be expected).Bombay not to bad not long to wait for on going flight I will certanly use them again.

I think america is a bit two faced in its attitude to bout , it seems ok for them to sell arms all over the world ( and some of those arms ending up being used against american service men / civillians would the people who sold them be had for conspricacy ) .

LOLO!!! You mean to tell us that the US is the only country that sells military hardware??? I guess all those French Mirage jets that are part of variuous other countries' arsenals are just US jets in disguise. Then of course there are the Chinese providing all sorts of military hardware to all kinds of questionable states, such as Burma. Military weaponry is a fact of life, unfortunately, and your incessant US bashing just shows an unquestionable anti-US bigotry on your part. How enlightened.

If you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen.

USA is now like "Great Britian"used to be, trying to rule the world by force ,cheating and lying it's way through life, it works for a while untill the other countrys wake up.

Oh, I am tolerating just fine the "heat" in the form of the foul smelling hot air being belched forth from the likes of you from your mouth; or is it your backside??? Smells like it could be either. I don't necessarily like the way the US has been run the last decade or so, and that includes the EuroHero "BO" Obama being maneuvered into being elected Prez. I didn't vote for Bush and I sure as hel_l didn't vote for BO; a real a$_$clown hypocrite, lazy, incompetent charlatan he is. Hint: Don't lump all of us Yanks together; we are a highly varied bunch, Herr Ajax.

How can you be a'yank' and an australian:bah:

I actually heard a rumour about Glitterman last week (more amusing and bizarre than nasty)

i heard a rumour too that GM is really of a high end english upper class, almost aristocratic family from London... one trusted friend says his family are even acquainted with the british Royals...?

Off with their heads

Who cares?

I and several others had the same problems with a mr Boon travell,about 6/7 years ago I think it was about 1 million baht he owed in tickets,his wife was taken to the police station (full of tears) and told to release the tickets or go to jail we had the tickets.I don't know if he is still in buisness under a different name or what.

As long is its only a bug I have up there and nothing else then I am more than happy.

Homophobic, are we? Don't knock it till you've tried it.

New recruits get a free toaster, but then only if you are deemed hot and/or cute by a panel of preening, narcissistic experts.

I think it's time you went into the gay section

I hope this isn't going to much off the topic but what happened to the rich kid who drove his car into the 'red shirts' arrested or did money change hands

Been and looked at the voting and the NO camp seem to be winning

Why would you want to go there if you don't like it? Are there no other beaches in Thailand? It's hardly the nicest beach you'll ever see.

You know what goes on there so just don't go. Be a bit like me going to vegas and saying there are too many casinos. This is what the place is all about.

I live here. I like living here. And no, this place is not only about that anymore. That is the point.

I thought you said you live in Jomtien why dont you sort your own beach and leav Pats alone

How about we leave the ladies on beach road and close down 'BOYS TOWN' that should sort out the men from the BOYS

Boyztown is no different than the other go go sois. Closing down the naughty sois gay and straight, isn't the topic here. The topic is beach road. Why this obsession with the gay thing? Anyway, please take it to the GAY FORUM. If you are seriously proposing closing down the gay sois while leaving open the straight sois, you are going to have a lot of fun explaining yourself there! Thanks.

Sorry jingthing if I touch a nerve,but to mention it once isn't an 'obsession'.I don't think I will go to gay forum because I don't lean that way

I think it's your nerve, not mine, to mention something so totally UNRELATED to the topic.

I did mention beach road
