  1. I have my wife & 4 kids in the lovely land of not so many smiles :D I think I'm gonna think about spending less of my hard earnt UK salary out there & get the family settled in the UK. Once foreigners cut back on holidays & spending, etc in Thailand & holiday elsewhere they might notice a difference. I used to love coming to Thailand :D but now some changes are on the books.

    Byeeeeeeeeeeeeee ... :)

    Your hard earned salary is going to go very much less far, back in the UK.

    Still, you have a choice, Use it wisely.

  2. I too live her on a retirement visa and feel very lucky to do so.

    I would say this.....

    thailand be careful of who you allow in to your beautiful country, please check as carefully as you can, many countries are happy to export some of their own and gladly lose them someplace else.

    Please try to not allow some of the dross that ends up here.

    How you do it is down to you , but it needs to be done.

    Bop pen yang.

  3. Perfect way to kill even more tourism and investors.

    I wonder would be Pattaya be without all the "bad" bars? a nice empty space in Thailand?! LOL

    PS. 99% of the bars in Pattaya have foreigners owners or so called backers

    Pattaya ...perfect place for a family holiday..........

    there are places in this lovely country where you dont have to experience the delights of that place.

    I suppose it just depends what you are looking for........

  4. This is great idea, but as with every idea there is also a downside.

    I made a visit to my local Tesco, and took a user friendly canvas bag, at the checkout I took it out, and was preparing to put in my purchases, to be told

    "sorry you cannot use that for security reasons"

    Basically when the staff standing at the exits see everything packed into Tesco bags they accept that everything is purchased, if the see some other non see through bag then they become suspiscious.

    An Email, however, to Tesco Thailand, explaining what had happened in my store, was responded to with a phone call from a Tesco employeewithin an hour who apologised profusely and told me steps would be taken to rectify the situation.

    He was true to his word.

    My re useable bags are accepted readily now.

  5. Webfact, I am using TT&T Maxnet, currently running at 10Mbps. As I mentioned its just the BBC site that is unresponsive.

    All other sites are loading instantly. Many thanks for the advice. :)

    Intresting to note that not all users are having problems with this site. Guess I'll just try later.

    Same problems with BBC mate.

    Was fine up until about a week ago.

    Seems like we have one common denominator though.

    I also use TT&T, so it looks like they are the problem.
