Muddled, in the usual effort to assert superiority. The loser may have reported it at the Zoo. The finder didn't, at the Zoo. The reason may partly be that the finder didn't trust staff at the Zoo. Yep. By reporting it on Facebook, the finder ensured that the money would remain intact AND that she would likely get a little reward. The loser didn't report it on Facebook, but her friends noticed it had been reported found, and notified her.

Knee-jerk ANF Poster myth inevitably repeated just after a returned wallet story. Proves shrewdness, builds forum cred w/ the peanut gallery.

Tragic; may he survive and recover, but it's not looking good.

Seems pretty normal to me, slightly delayed if anything. I've been here long enough to remember some really wet Novembers as well.

Silo Season 2 out Nov 15.

I'm dual booting Linux now and may switch over in the event.

No, I happened to find a Thai receptive to the idea of self-development. As you know, many, if not most, are not; but others could be if they're patiently coached, supported, and led by example. She'd played some sports in school and has some education. Once she finally understood and made visible progress, though, she took it on her own from there. I'm as surprised as anyone, actually. I made a study of what she desires in a man, some of which she didn't know. As we've been together a couple of decades, I guess I fit the bill well enough.

Could we see the guarantee that Immigration handed you when you entered?

Disbelief arising from envy is understandable. Couple of years ago, to bring peace to a few of our members, I did post a couple of pics of her at the gym and in a yoga pose. Whoops. 'Course, trolls gotta troll. One troll, promoting the greatness of the monger lifestyle, recently continued sneering even after I posted stories, with pics, contrasting the miserable death of a lone monger vs. that of a married pensioner whose wife took great care of him all the way to the bitter end. Mods then taught him about trolling. 🙂

But you spent 2 hours recently in the gym on the treadmill and exercise bike.

Tried 'em all and found I don't do well with girly girls w/ the makeup, heels, and hair that turns on so many of our simps. Too vain, phony, manipulative, and potentially deceitful. Wouldn't date one. I settled on the athletic "woman for all seasons" type, pleasant to look at if not beautiful, who's not only romantic but practical, wears jeans, stays fit (great in the bedroom), works out in the gym with me, can drive a big bike, works hard at her respectable job, etc.

Sounds like you've had negative reactions to your own performance and possible small willy. Each P4P lady does what she does and that's it. So you'll have to spend time buying drinks, talking, and getting to know each one if you want to have more assurance before agreeing to pay the fee. Now you can just have clips of your fave porn on your phone to show and see if she agrees to act similarly, for what price. That's all you want, after all. Best is to run through a number and then settle down with regulars. Better still is to find a real partner with potential who's ready and willing to learn. But there your own performance matters a lot more. It will help to realize that she considers the act to be more about her than you. So you got to find out what really turns her on and satisfies her. This can take quite some time. Most Thai ladies don't actually know themselves well.

This applies to the Thai spelling on other official documents you present, notably the chanote. Translator of passport should use the same spelling.

Did you first offer your pink card? Been using mine to check into hotels for years in BKK and around Pattaya.

Different denominations for Singha, Chang, Leo, etc.? Ain't happenin'. The Thais who stitched them up didn't think so, and obviously approved that use of police resources against the countless better uses our ANF Police Oversight Board can dream up. The law's the law. Basically, no arrests should be made, esp of any farang, even more so a Brit, and overstays permitted until the roads are just as safe as they are in the Islamic Republic of the UK, AND the Red Bull heir caught and punished severely. There! That said, I do sympathize with these ladies, assuming the game wasn't rigged. Oh, you'd hypocritically love the hypocrisy if it were your wife being cheated out of B50,000 and signing a loan paper to borrow another 20k you're going to be responsible for.

Can't even conceive of that. True, but occasionally owners buy extra equipment for the gym and allow others to use it. Additional equipment can used in the room, such as resistance bands or suspension trainer.

OK, maybe I wasn't clear, just using "pink card" as shorthand, as the pink card is issued only if you have a yellow book. The tax office will need the yellow book, as will the Chonburi DLT if you wish to use it in lieu of a COR from Immigration--as I did myself three years ago. I use a copy of the pink card as proof of address for retirement visa extensions.

The yellow book is a tabien baan. You also need the chanote proving your ownership, of course, for which the tabien baan isn't sufficient. Blue books are for Thais and permanent residents. You may try whatever it is you have in mind and report back. I do know what works well, however.

Funny. Now, a different set of researchers has come out with what might be viewed as a corollary to Dunning-Kruger: People have a strong tendency to believe that they always have enough data to make an informed decision—regardless of what information they actually have. --People think they already know everything they need to make decisions Stay away from the share markets! "Past performance is no guarantee of future results." Kamala's sinking fast. Today:

Wrong.

If you own a property that serves as your primary residence, you'll be exempt from annual property tax on that property. Show the yellow book to the tax office. I did, with my latest bill. TO updated the database, told me not to pay the current bill, and ignore future notices. I never got any in the future.

“We will not allow virtue signaling. We will not allow identity politics. Black men are not political babies,” he continued. “We know exactly what’s going on with the Democratic Party. We know they have been exploiting us for more than six decades, and we say, just as Moses said to Pharaoh, ‘Let my people go.’” https://www.facebook.com/reel/567538115649631

They've lost most under Biden/Harris and stand to lose even more under Harris/Walz. They've managed to wise up a bit and stop falling for the usual Dem BS.

Actually, the DNC is more worried now that Harris will lose. Their euphoria has ended, reality set in, and Harris' lead has melted away. Probably should have resorted to democracy and held a primary to find a stronger candidate than a mere DEI appointee. Hence the ramping up of hate and fearmongering with this latest push with the Nazi/fascist rhetoric, the other lies having lost their effectiveness. Our forum leftists duly echo the latest talking points, of course.
