omwpattaya Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 Hello all, Im heading over to Pattaya from the UK in the next couple of weeks on my own. Im in my thirties and wondered if there are many Brits over there in my age bracket that live there. I have an O visa and plan to stay 90 days at a time. Im sick of it here in the UK and have to get away to try something new but don't want to go somewhere where i feel lost and on my own! Has anyone else here made the move be it temporay or permanent in their 30's? Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raro Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Im in my thirties and wondered if there are many Brits over there ...the correct wording should be "too many"..... have a look at our Friday night gatherings, they have been proven good fun so far. International crowd, ages range from around 30 to 70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just signed up for the St.Patricks day piss-up and am looking forward to meeting with the regulars there also. Incidentally, I have noticed that in the TV forum, the most popular topics are the ones involving 'piss-ups' etc, which restore ones faith in humanity! Cheers, see you soon.

That's because the mods block any really interesting stuff. If you're interested in girls (or boys) then this is not the forum for you. If you're interested in piss-ups, hooliganism, weird ways for farangs to die, or baht buses, then glue your eyes to the screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just ask for Martin or Ricky and they will introduce to any regulars who are in at the time. I'm often there myself so may bump into you.

omwpattaya Posted March 9, 2007 Author Share Posted March 9, 2007 Pattayatony, not sure how long you been away from the UK for, but in areas of London you now have "dial a gun" yeah kids delivering shooters on mopeds. It's becoming out of control everywhere. I did read about the Russian girls though , not nice. buriramboy, will give you a pm mate when i get there. Ungabunga, will take you up on the offer, i will pm you also when i arrive. HowardJohnson, thanks for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khun ? Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 You will find the crowd that made Spain a miserable place in about every inch of Patters. Enjoy it will be just like home or at least the more seedy side of home all to often. You might even wonder why you left if you stay a few months.

Robski Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Well Khun ? he can sleep well knowing that there won't be any dark clouds at the Friday night meetings, because we've never seen you there. I've always had a great time with the ThaiVisa Pattaya members and I'm very glad I made the effort to get out and meet them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khun ? Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 (edited) Some of us still work and have horizons of other choices to enjoy. Better places to spend time than being enclaved with vast amount of drop out of reality types. Nice place to visit a few times in life but the local and foreigners that now make up the place seem to of lost the plot more than not. A conglomerate of low esteem and income sin seekers that make residence all to often because of failures and not successes in life. The last chance for losers haven on a feeding frenzy comparable to throwing steroid laced treats into the local gym-spa. The Vegas of the poor and destitute where drunks, drugs and sex is the only thing that matters anymore in life and debauchery is the agenda. Have fun, it can be a nice vacation for a short while.

Khun ? Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 Wouldn't be here if I was not being paid for my time, and you nothing better to do. (Our forum) has been diverse in many ways for some years now, wlcome to the nightmare. Great to have newbies wisdom in the comical sense of it all.

Robski Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 Thanks, let me know when you're coming to the next Friday pub recon. I'll make sure I'm not there. I wouldn't not miss it for the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khun ? Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 sorry have to work >;o( Haven't done pub recon's since Korea a few decades ago. Next time I will be in country will be some years most likely. Changed retirement plans and sold out before I even got started. For many years enjoyed the place but then it started to grow on me like mold. Use to be a beer stop anywhere, country or city would be a enjoyable time. Now days you better go with someone or know the place your going to. Pattaya could be a great vacation and retirement destination but the place has really got out of control. Didn't start happening until the currency problems. Never had a regular hangout in the many years I visited the place and rarely stayed in the same hotel. Use to be everyone knew someone that you knew, more of a cordial environement. Now it is best to know where you are going and who you will be around. Oh well enjoy the old memories and the adventures of the new to be found.
