hi this might sound like a stupid question to some ,but i was wondering how do you guys put in the days in thailand everyday , ie if you are not working i mean ....retired or just moved there and not working ,do you find the days long or do you eventually get a routine going , im not not living there yet full time yet ,still 35 ,but im trying to get things together ,house ,land etc before we make the move...im just curious ,,i know there must be more than going to pub,restaurant all the time.........as i say may be dumb question but may be some of ye have some good ideas to share with us ,

you are 35, even at 40 you will still have/want to work.

doing some job on the net/phone probably is easiest to do, even without permits - and you can earn $ instead of baht.

on my extended holidays in thailand I don't have enough time to do everything I want to. Even when I reduce promoting my business and answering emails to a bare minimum, still I can offord only a fev days of travelling around.

depending what you fancy, but travelling, sports, gardening (even growing your own fruits and vegetables), learning some new skills on courses (including through the net), socialising, learning language will take you all time.

Golf, mate. Some top courses here - and very cheap compared to most other countries.

I'd get a set of clubs if I were you!

shopping and shagging - both take ages now
