What do you do with your time in Thailand?

I waste far too much of my day reading utter tripe on ASEAN.

I spend most of my day helping, guiding, teaching, playing with my 3 Thai granddaughters; 16, 12, 6.

 

Oldest granddaughter 16 now speaks close to native speaker English as does her Thai father (my son) but she loves nowadays to discuss human rights, discrimination, materials she's alreday found for her bachelor degree.

 

Second granddaughter 12 still needs plenty of discussion reinforcement for her English (I use the professional textbooks she's issued with to keep focus and consistency), and she wants to discuss fashion which I have no knowledge about but I try.

 

Third granddaughter 6 has a very good English teacher 9 (young guy from UK well qualified to teach English as a second anguage to little kids). My granddaughter comes home every afternoon with a new language function and some extension of the previous lessons in the last week or so. She gets out of the car at home and instantly 'Good afternoon grandfather, are you well today what did you eat for lunch and did you make any good snacks today and .... ' Her teacher is obviously focusing on good full pronunctiation (e.g. when she says 'cat', the t sound at the end is clear and strong, nd sometimes she tells me to be more carful to say all the sounds.

 

On the week-end we have cooking and baking. Tomorrow the eldest isscheduled to trach the w younger one how to make a birthday cake (for mummy, b'day mid next week, and all 3 have told their gather to take mummy somwhere tomorrow so she doesn't see them making her b'day cake).

 

Depending on what we're going to cook the older 2 have to prepare a list of ingredients and thn a shopping list and I take all 3 shopping at Rimping.

 

And I help my son to take care of his quite productive vegetable patch in our garden. 

 

It's a full day/week.

What did I miss ?

He claimed to have paid virgins for sex and when he had sex with them, it turns out that they weren't virgin after all

Certainly a possibility here. Let’s see, started visiting the Thai beauties in 2009 and met my current wife 2017. Absolutely no medical issues. Perhaps they really were all new to the trade and virgins (the latter, I found no evidence). At any rate consider myself fortunate …

Read the 2nd to the last sentence slowly and you may get the sarcasm.......

Read it as this "Perhaps they really were all new to the trade, and were virgins (the latter, I found no evidence).  He never said he paid for virgins.....lol

 

How many times have you heard the old adage, "but she just started working in the bar when I found her" from punters, and "Perhaps she was a Virgin, but I could not tell, she must have been at that time of the month"  If you dont get it oh well, I will go on my merry way and back to sitting on the stool where I will ring the bell and they will all be free, even the girls.......,

So the guy this week arrested as a kiddy fiddler who was 41 years of age ( if you can be bothered to go thro' the forum news ) in your eyes is an old westerner then ? How old are you 20 ? ????  . As far as I am concerned whether they 20 or 90 and are involved with child or underage sex they should be castrated as age, or perception of age is immaterial.

I was speaking about what is the usual, rather than any one specific case

For more than 30 years now, I enjoy my life in thailand.
Almost no obligations, except the immigration dates!
When these are done, they leave you be here in peace!
No work, no taxes, great weather, even greater women!
What more do I want?
If possible, still enjoy all this for a few more years.

My Thai quasi-grand-daughter is 18, wants to learn English. She wanted to start on Peter Pan, working on reading Anne McCaffrey's " Dragonflight" together instead.

The old fairy tales have terribly stilted English.

I visit temples, pay too mutt for national park entry, go to cooking classes, hug drugged-up Tigers, feed monkeys, ride elephants, and buy loads of Thai silk and triangle cushions. I once went to Patty's but a sexy laydee stole my gold necklace. Never again!

In short, the usual expatty things like that. 

Sounds more like what a tourist would do....

I work full time (5 days), but flexible hours allow me to be (mostly) home by 4PM.

 

Then it's a spot of pottering in the garden (if there's no cricket on TV), dinner then inside to avoid the mozzies and more TV.

 

Weekends are always full, home maintenance (Madam makes a list, always something busted), gardening, fiddling with the solar.

 

Not sure about when I will retire, could do it in a couple of years but I think I will keep working at least part time or I'll get bored / need to get out of the house.

 

Oh, and I do a little modding on ASEANnow.

nice mod ????
