Nationality Roll Call Poll

[Paul888]

Would love to see which Nationality has the most representation here.

I feel an Aussie pre-dominance, but is that just because they are the loudest?

I will start by admitting, I am originally from UK. Southern England to be precise.

I'm a banana bender

Banana bender is not a term I've heard before

I've heard of a banana hammock, but thought that was a european thing. I'm almost scared to find out what a banana bender is. Maybe they got something on backwards.

I am Jackeen from Ireland, ( under 6 inches of snow at the moment )

But I will be in Pattaya on 24th December, and I hope its warm.

[WarpSpeed]

I voted other, I have an official country of birth but I'm certain my ancestors aren't from this universe but one far more advanced...

[MAJIC]

Surprised the Poll didnt include Scandinavians,prominantly.

I would have thought they have a high presence in Thailand?

[sceadugenga]

There seems to be a large Dutch contingent in Chiang Rai as well, not sure how many are members though.

[mcgriffith]

I agree, the Dutch and Scandinavian members need to be included.

The OP can modify the poll.

Hi!

I am BRIAN<AND FROM Denmark,as you know.

Yes, there is some dutch people up here,but I think, it is down in Chiang Mai-also there all the dane are.

Quess we are two danes in CR now.

[sceadugenga]

Why is Crossy voting in the English contingent?

He's not from Chiang Rai.... is he?

Is this some sort of ring in to pad the results in the soapdodgers favour?

Where's the referee?

[villagefarang]

I thought I spotted a few ringers in there as well. What’s up with that?

[sceadugenga]

It compromises the exclusivity of the Chiang Rai forum.

Not saying we're better than the others but we beat the hell out of second place.

[mcgriffith]

Soapdodger arrivistes from god knows where, Scandihoovians excluded....it's a crying shame, I tell you.....

[mcgriffith]

I took the liberty of changing the poll, adding a few more options.

Unfortunately, everyone's previous vote was voided, so vote again!

I will recuse myself from voting this time, as I am not strictly a CR resident.....

Perhaps the ringers could keep out of the poll so that it can be a smidge more accurate

[sceadugenga]

What happened to the "whose from where option"?

[sunholidaysun1]

[Paul888]

I see that editing the poll choices was a massive success

[mcgriffith]

Give it time. The Dutch in CR don't get up till noon.....
