Good  luck with  that, First has  mostly  disappeared these  days as  non economical for airlines to  include it, why do you think i was  slumming it  down in Business?

[faraday]

Yup, really happy here; some things are annoying, but the good makes up for it.

Institution as an "annual event" or institution as "asylum" please  do try to be clear.

We tried old people's homes, but they wouldn't let my mother bring in her sound system, and she stole other resident's medication.

The Thai apologists must be getting nervous...one of these touchy feeley "Thailand is the most wonder place on earth" posts...about once per week now...

 

Let's be honest...it is the readily available poon tang that keep expats coming and staying in Thailand...accepting oppressive and personally intrusive immigration policies...

 

Take away the ladies...there would be a mass exodus...IMHO   ????

Is that you, Chuck Wow?  Must be the glasses.  ????

Its the damned truth.

 

Its about the girls.

 

Meh.  Thailand can keep its girls.  Theyre not worth it  ????

If you read just page 3  one would not know what the topic of this thread is at all.  All it takes is one or two

folks to get way off track.   Anyway NCC,  i admire your self control as you have not yet responded to the darts being thrown by some.  The boss in Chiangrai would have started a debate immediately.  

Well, maybe you have not woken up yet  haha.      My take is that anyone living here and enjoying it should

be commended.  As ANYPLACE ,  there are pitfalls and we all have our challenges ,  Keep living the life that is rewarding for you.  And don't forget those photos of what you ate yesterday   LOL

I feel exactly as the OP does, until the pills wear off and the Mrs starts nagging and half the dogs in the soi start up with the barking competition. Crazy and unreal but more of a nightmare than a dream at times. ????

What have you done to my topic?

Can't I leave you people alone for one minute?!

Electrodes on your mothers head? what?

Poison the dogs?

 

I am editing last nights GoPro videos now and I hope you can get back on topic. 

It was a three camera shoot so it will take a while.

two GoPros, one for a wide master shot, one for a medium shot for a different angle and a cellphone for close up and audio. 

it takes a while to import all the media.

Clever use of media will be the key to this year's POTY, a wise move indeed!

Just out of professionel intrest if you need an editor please let me know and i will review them and give my opinion before you post on pornhub.

You are still fairly new here and the time will come when you are getting bored with all of the

things you like now.Believe you me that day will come,like the seven year itch.

i respect why you say that but i don't think so. sometimes boring in HH but compared to the USA this is nirvana.

i put the welding thing on the back burner for now. I found a suitable prefab item. rare in Thailand. And I have other hobby things and projects that need to be completed first.

fishing, golf, too slow and boring for me.

Extreme sports go down well with POTY voters! They like members that live on the edge .......

well i do have a motorcycle. 650 Kawasaki so i am just like Steve McQueen in the Great Escape. 

and i have been resting before i go to Pattaya on my motorcycle, maybe for a month.  but based on last night i just realized i don't have anywhere near enough memory cards for my GoPro.   

[geronimo]

Pattaya has a high concentration of TV members, buying strangers drinks is a great way to create some local support, and park the Versys up before the drinking, otherwise you might make the wrong kind of headline!!!

Sorry to go ON topic for a while but:

For me the pluses still outweigh the minuses and by a big margin over my home country or any other I would live in.

Of course the novelty wears off after a couple, or three, years but finding a new interest is the key to keeping your sanity.

I’m trying to learn Thai so that should keep me occupied.....forever !!

Anyhoo, back to your home videos and ageing relatives [emoji51]

That's funny, yesterday you were saying you were so bored you were going to pattaya, and asking for advice on travel. The bright lights of hau hin didn't last long now did they?

Me thinks someone had a good time on Soi 80 last night. ????

This is a post which highlights the false dichotomy between foreigners in Thailand... someone is either a 'Thai Apologist' or a 'Thai bashing Sexpat'....  with no balanced recognition of the full spectrum of beings making up the numbers.

 

One could interpret from your post above that you are here suffering immigration policies and visa running just for cheap sex and if there were no cheap sex here, you'd be somewhere else getting it... 

 

You are partly right, take away the ladies and there would be an exodus.... but only of those who came here for and are having to pay for sex.

 

Because someone likes it here it doesn't mean they are a Thai Apologist - it just means they are capable of putting up with the negative aspects of living here along with the positives and there are more positives than just cheap sex. 

Equally so, because someone has criticism of Thailand it doesn't mean they are a Thai-bashing-sexpat.

 

We have both ends of this spectrum on ThaiVisa.com...  both ends of the spectrum are perhaps over represented, for most balanced minds tend not to be interested in discussing the flawed opinions of a handful rosed tinted luvies or over opinionated misogynistic bigots... unless bored and thinking, what the heck, I'll chip in !

 

 

Post of the year for me. ????
