Give your child the best education possible. Personally, I would look at Regents and a few others in the area. Otherwise, I would look into your home country for a quality education.

This has been going on for over 30 years. No surprise at all.

No, I would never marry a bar girl.

I travelled a number of times back in the 90's to Penang, JB, and also KL by train. I've used both 2nd class sleeper and first class private rooms. It was a great experience and I really liked it. The Malaysian trains were nicer than the Thai trains.

You must have missed my post just up the page. Met my Thai wife when she was studying at a university in my country. She is 7 years older than me.

Trevor has his new bar on Soi "Pothole". Does he still have an interest in his other bar? I don't see him plugging that bar that much anymore.

My Thai wife was seven years older than me. We met in my country when she was studying in university.

Nu Bar in Pattaya didn't survive Covid and is no longer open. The owners had been in the bar business since at least 2005. Nu Bar hadn't been in operation that long. Previously it had a different name and location where it thrived.

Not surprised at all by this latest news. It seems to fit his pattern.

How much is a Tourist visa these days? I was contemplating getting a Tourist visa through the e-visa system instead of a visa exempt that is good for 30 days upon arrival and then going to immigration and having it extended. The cost is 1900 baht to have it extended plus wasting half a day to go to immigration plus transportation costs.

I get this on FB as well. It's almost always women with a very small profile that seems very dubious. I also get this on LINE with some stupid reason as to why they are contacting me. I just reply that no, we have never met blah, blah, blah.

Went to Vertigo at The Banyan Tree in the 90's when it first opened. It was very nice.

I like staying over in Jomtien. It's a lot quieter yet if you want to go over the hill to Pattaya it is easy to do.

Some of the far-right Republicans are just certifiably crazy in their political goals.

Yes, it is a thrilling flight. When I flew there in March 2000 it was still a dirt runway. It was paved in 2002 which is a lot nicer.

Why? They cannot safely be brought down.

You do not literally step over dead bodies when climbing Mt. Everest on the SE ridge. Those that have perished, but unable to be brought down, have been moved from the standard route. They are still up there but out of sight. These are all above the south summit and have not been brought down as the risks are too great. On the NE ridge there was one deceased climber, known as "Green Boots" as his boots were green that was just a few feet off of the route. He had died in 1996. In 2014, Green Boots was moved to a less conspicuous location by members of a Chinese expedition.

Hey, that's kind of funny except I also bought a condo in 2006 and if I could sell it for what I paid for it I'd sell it tomorrow! Luckily I don't live in it as I live elsewhere. I used to have it rented out regularly before Covid-19 hit.

I don't know about the bath but he did get a haircut as shown in the photo in the Thaiger article.

It appears that he is already back in NZ according to the article and attempting to do just that.

I would look into getting a private investigator to check out what she has been doing. It could be a number of things or a combination of things. Visiting her BF/Kik/Tom etc. Gambling with the girls and maybe some guys. Visiting her husband & kids. Visiting sick/aged relative, Mom? Dad? As for the house, you will most likely lose that. This is Thailand and you will never be Thai. If things do go bad, be prepared to move somewhere far away from where you are now. Get a new phone, cut off all social media with her. Good Luck!

Banana mango??? On pizza??? Is that a common thing in Oz?

Not into Thailand. I would rather carry it in from my home country, after riding it for awhile, and avoid import taxes. So far, I've never been stopped when bringing a bicycle into Thailand.

There are a lot of Thai doctors in the USA spread out all over the country. Most graduated from medical in Thailand and then later went to the USA for advanced training and specialization. What happens is the best ones get snapped up by a US hospital and are supported by their employer to get permanent residency, aka Green Card. They end up staying in the USA and only go back to Thailand for holidays after that.

Yes, you definitely got scammed. She was setting you up to get even more baht out of you as well. Good thing that you gave the Issan restaurant a miss.
