G54 Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I have a new, good one.No, not a woman. I got a quick result on a no-no. Had a lady from 'BKK' phone me every day for 5 weeks or so. 4 or 5 times a day. Finally got to meet her this week as she had a holiday. Gorgeous. Beautiful woman. Told me how happy she is now. Wants us to get it together. She went back to BKK to her office job. I asked to meet her as I was going to BKK to meet an old friend. Silence. Phone call ended. Huh? Cannot meet me in BKK. Turns out she is not really working in BKK. So 5 days after meeting the woman, I discover she is a fraud. Wow!! Record time. So there is my good story for this week Ok mate, as long as you didn't send your life savings to the bloke in Liberia - u'll be fine. I swapped it for U.S. $10 bills. Got a great deal. 50 cents on the $. What a mug that Nigerian man was, giving his $10 bills away like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Datsun240Z Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Here's a positive story.The drinking water truck that sells the large white jugs came round today. He usually charges me 12 baht for a large 10-gallon jug. My wife was home this afternoon, and he only charged us 10 baht each -- the actual price. Ain't that great!? Sorry but I have to put a downer on this piece of good news. When wifey found out I was charged 12 bht a jug from our usual supplier instead of 10, she normally picks it up herself, she said that we will find a new supplier as she hates dual pricing!!!! I wish all Thai thaught that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish all Thai thaught that When they get to the point of believing "your money is their money" and "you being ripped off is they themselves being ripped off", they do get to think like that.

cat5 Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 I've been reading various postings on this site for about a week now and I'm quite frankly amazed at the number of posts about any negative news in LOS,why not just rename it "Whingers Corner" and have done?Does anyone actually enjoy living here? Yes, it does. For example, there are fewer foreigners coming to Thailand. Let's face it, the very nature of the site is likely to attract people experiencing problems with visas and other issues living in Thailand. It's not called thaisuccessstory.com is it? I've never had a problem with visas and work permits since I've lived here and I guess there are many other people in the same boat. Reading about visa and bar girl problems is just entertainment for me. 555+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
