This is very important what you wrote because you are taking about a job ..back then ...that gave you work life balance enough for you to train in triathlon ,...so the question is was it Monday to Friday work training times were ? and the most important question....did you WIN the triathlons?

Time has passed very quick . I was shocked when he said....its been 20 years !! Where was you in 2004? What country? What was you doing ? How has your life changed since 2004?

mfd101 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I accessed it all at 55. As you could in those days. Not any more now of course. Met my b/f (40 yrs younger than me) in BKK late 2011, having travelled the world including across China & Central Asia & Russia. Married (Buddhist village ceremony) in 2013, partnered (pre-gay marriage) in Canberra 2014, moved permanently to Surin late 2015, built a mansion a relatively safe 40km from the family farm and living here since 2017. A case of: opposites attract and stay together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thingamabob Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 (edited) I still live with my Thai wife in the same properties in Bangkok and Rayong I was living in 20 years ago. We have been together since 1984, and married in Taiwan in 1990. The only thing that has changed, sadly, is that my closest friends have all died. Tempus fugit...

xylophone Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I was Chief Manager Investments for a major New Zealand bank, and I and another guy had started the division, which I was now running, along with 25 Investment Advisers and a team of back office investment personnel. A far cry from my days working for oil companies in the Sahara desert (twice), Nigeria, offshore Norway and a couple of North Sea platforms. The stress of the bank job was starting to get to me, so I took a holiday in Phuket, and around two years later I was living here! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
