Sausage in batter and Chips for £3.50 in most places outside of central London 

Don't worry, you'll soon be able to have a plate of somtam, sticky rice, laab (minced) catfish, and grilled chicken for just over two quid.

Would that be sitting down outside on the pavement?

It was Polish and Lithuanian in my area, its what was the final straw for me. When I saw the local shop with Polish writing over the windows etc I felt an alien in my home town. Realised the town and country I knew has long gone, consigned to memories and history.

Sorry about those windows with Polish writing. Most upsetting.

My Mums coming back from Barbados next week and staying in the UK for 3 months , so I think that I'll go to Thailand for three months by this week-end , if flights are available and stay there for three months

She might just bring one of those beach toy boys back with her, then you will have to pack your bag!

Just like the issaan farmgirls who manage through their holiday romance to convince some poor sap she's his one and only and she not like working bar.

On the contrary .

She says that I can come and stay for free

I insist in paying £ 20 a week  ..........and also offered free house sitting which was accepted 

But , I absolutley insist on paying £ 20 a week and offering  my services as a house sitter for free , keeping burglars away and things like that 

Grrrr

To put that into perspective, if you had just that every day it would cost £24.50 week.

In a tray, curry sauce on it, staggering home, drunk!

....and waking up the next morning and finding an open can of nearly full beer and thinking "Why not, its already open"

I used to reckon a can of cider was very refreshing first thing.

Picked onions are 50p each from the chip shop .

I bought a jar of pickled onions for 87 p from ASDA and I take my own 

That's the spirit! Your mum would be so proud.

Dont think that she'd able able to do that, what with the current UK income requirements for visitors to get visas , especially as my rental payments are cash in hand with no  record

Good old Max. I can see him in his Samut Prakarn rented townhouse now, fingers on the keyboard, delighted his joke of a thread has run so long.

I'm in London, 5.33 AM here

Let’s call it how it is. It’s not a joke. Having 20,000 posts doesn’t excuse the title of Troll no matter how he may want to dress it up. If a newbie had persistently posted this kind of drivel he would of been jumped on, reported and deleted by now.
