Like most of us, you have chosen to live in your wife's province; beautiful province in which we were, my wife and I a fortnight ago. Like you too, I do not like to leave our house too long, my four dogs and my four cats miss me too much. I wrote "my" because my wife does not really like them. They are forbidden in the house; but when she is not there, I open the doors wide so that they come to sleep at my feet.

October 19, 20196 yr Perhaps a linked site with different software could run a poll where votes can shift with the mood. The forums software is not optimized for the kind of fun we had years ago when the votes would shift back and forth, creating quite a lot of suspense and competitive maneuvering. Surely one of the digital nomads could whack something together.

The hatred/ bile, disgusting things a handful of jealous members posted were disgusting. What a shame. These jealous people seem to be the ones who've got a problem, not you. As already mentioned, a couple of times. The biggest enemies of foreigners in Thailand are often other foreigners. A lot of them don't realize that they shoot themselves in their feet.
October 19, 20196 yr Popular Post I don't think the return winners should be eligible. Colin is an automatic win for sure. Not that I don't love Colin, but I would like a bit of suspense.

Not that I don't love Colin, but I would like a bit of suspense. I'm looking forward to a swimsuit round this year, and an obstacle course. I can see Colinneil doing a Dukes of Hazzard to take that round. Will there be a karaoke round this year? Link your best Youtube cover rendition? Perhaps we could invite each of the sub-fora to propose the nominees.

October 20, 20196 yr Popular Post Ah, the poster of the year. Which desperate soul should we honour this time around. Tough to follow up on such one line heavyweights as trsnsam or colon Neil or match the lack of human dignity of a Jing thing crying for recognition.

I can finally hang up this old analogue microphone that keeps giving me a shock. As I gaze down from the commentary tower, I realise that some other poor unfortunate will be in here, looking down upon me and the other contestants as we struggle to cross the finishing line.
