tuky Posted May 10, 2004 Share Posted May 10, 2004 Did you buy a T-Shirt? If not why? is the design not what you would like? Are you not interested in wearing a shirt with the thaivisa logo? I bought several, and whilst I perhaps will not be wearing mine to Robinsons I did think they were a great gift. Have a look at my father-in-law wearing his, is that not the look of a happy man? Anyway, I am hoping there will be a revised version soon. Stay tuned and let us know what you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the gentleman Posted May 10, 2004 Share Posted May 10, 2004 thats a tesco shirt, cheap and crappy looking - spend a little more than 80 baht making them and I could be interested - also the front is a little messy with all that writing. Put the logo on the sleeve and get rid of the farang crap......... bet they would sell better in a shop in khoa Saen Rd - they would look great on a two headed rasta .

taxexile Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 yes,its spoilt beyond hope by having farang,both in english and thai,emblazoned across the front. the novelty value lasts about 2 seconds. i'd rather wear a cliff richard t-shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meadish_sweetball Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 I think it should say, in Thai: "100% Farang. For juice, please squeeze below." Farang also means "guava" in Thai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natee1 Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 I wondered what the Thai writing said, but too much kreng chai to ask in public. I am relieved now. ...but still won't buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolf5370 Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 I bought 4 - 2 of each colour (not turned up yet). Agree with the ThaiVisa move to the arm, and remove the English transliteration, but I like the Thai Script "farang". Also am happy to support ThaiVisa.

Spee Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 Did you buy a T-Shirt? Hello Leith, Sorry had to vote no ... Not to bust yer chops or anything, but this was another poll with a missing vote button. I was looking for a choice like ... "Plan to buy, but haven't had a chance to do so yet." Hope all is well with you and yours. Regards, Spee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tutsiwarrior Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 tukyleith, re the photo...your father-in-law looks to be middle aged and over weight...quite within character regarding most of the posters on this forum and an inspiration to t-shirts everywhere... I pledge to purchase the article as a sleeping garment for my 4'6'' tall wizened mother-in-law and shall post the photographic result on this forum shortly...she has an amazingly delectable tukkus for an old peasant woman...

Khun Larry Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 Would recommend putting the Farang in thai only on the back Front has Thai Visa logo only But looks good on the Thai guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nam Kao Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 Next one should be "If your an orphan, I am single" or "Me Falang, not ATM" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elsie Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 I didn't get one as I would look pretty stupid in it. So, I'm waiting for a new version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phazey Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 everyone in my village knows i am a falang - why advertise it alough i would jump at the chance to buy a t-shirt with "tutsiwarrior for President, LovelyCutie for first lady!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tutsiwarrior Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 what do you say LovelyCutie?...shall we stand for election and the risk of bloody and glorious death at the hands of assassins or remain forever in our anonymity and lives of humdrum material circumstance?...

Bluecat Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 I didn't get one as I would look pretty stupid in it. Come on, Lovely. Impossible. Do not believe the Duckthai/Erco posters,... I'm sure you would look better than the father in law of Tukyleith. And he looks quite good I have to say. And happy. So maybe the Thai people do not mind to wear a Tshirt with farang written on it. Maybe they do not understand it the same way than the farang. So they do not mind. Lovely, too much westernized, aren't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumonster Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 yep remove the english script and put the logo on the sleeve... though I like the idea of the writing on the back... I can handle it when I cannot see the people laughing at me.. I nearly bought one of tutu's rip offs at the chutuchuk market till I noticed they had made a mistake and printed feralang ....

Bluecat Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 Would recommend putting the Farang in thai only on the backFront has Thai Visa logo only I would much prefer that version also. Up to the next better idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds very interesting, tutsi. No fear for assassins, guys. Glory forever. In this particular case, I am afraid the first lady might get killed first though. Brue, actually, one of my mates said I would look fabulous in "mia farang" version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tutsiwarrior Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 my first lady 'killed first'?...not likely as you step into the folds of my cloak and safety (see the first Todd Browning 'Dracula' movie)... after Alfonso Bedoya, Bela Lugosi was always a screen idol...
