I can't say cause I'm actually an ex 00 classified agent, who had a previous career as an decorated SAS officer, who was seconded to the CIA , who was a body guard to a Saudi King and had dozens of affairs with the worlds most beautiful women.

I'm hiding out in my Suk'vit Soi 7, 5000 baht 1 room hovel so as to fly under the international assassin radar that has been searching for me since I had it off with a famous European Princess.

Racism is a quite natural thing when you have little to share. The socalled no racism policy in the west, is out of beneficial reasons, not because we are not racists.

I am fully aware that the west is not without racism

people say cost of living!! BS it's getting the same everywhere/ it's the pussssy admit it. cuz there is no women back home, your old ass would get an 19,20,21,22,23,24 year old to sleep with you

My council tax bill on modest terraced house in uk £125

Utilities to keep rooms warm not house warm £200

Rent in a small UK city of I were renting my two bedroom house £1000

That's £1300 or 52k baht a month to live 3 hours from London.

 

Thailand costs the same?

Hmmm…. I’m here to look at the temples?

No comparison thank the lord 

It was going to be a limited stay on a world-wide, post-early-retirement vacation, but my Thai wife made a cast, I bit, she set the hook, and tighten the star-drag - and here I am having just celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary. 
That wasn't my initial plan.  :wink:

Perhaps you could enlighten me on that one . Right now I am coughing continuously all day and night , filthy head ache and see no let up . What have I done to deserve this .

Location Chiang Mai

Only one solution to the Chiang Mai situation right now.

 

Chiang Mai International Airport.

Not moved to Thailand yet, but for the first time in my life, I think I could live in Pattaya.  Its changed a lot in the last 15 years, more upmarket places to go, nightlife quality has improved.  Always a festival of some sort on at the beach, and Bangkok is not too far away either.

Lots of fairly cheap thai food and fancy places too.

This "girl" has a little something. She comes from Cambodia and can't read Thai. Photo taken on Soi Buakhao last night. I had her pegged immediately but my friend didn't.

When you realised that "she" had a little something ,did you still bang it ?

He already said that he pegged her but didn't share with his friend.

I've lived in many countries and all had racists. The worst were not white people.

That applies to Thailand in my opinion .

I have lived in a few countries as well . Can be white against white too.

Correct, unfortunately many think the that the world revolves around the English speaking minority.

"Pegged" doesn't necessarily mean what you think it does.

In majority white nations they are.

The only people in the world who are taught that racism is morally wrong is white people in a few countries (e.g. UK, America, Canada, New Zealand etc. etc.)

 

People from other places think nothing of racism.

Every student in every country who goes to school is taught that racism is wrong. Thais included.

I agree but I reckon white folks are best at denying they are racist.

In my experience, non white racists don't think they are, as they think only white people can be racist!
