30sLad Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Iv been to Thailand several times and now plan on living here for 6 months every year, and working in England for the other 6 months. I'm in my 30s and usually just hit the bars but now need an alternative. So how do you spend your spare time? Last trip i watched Buriram United play so i have one day a week covered watching them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigJohnnyBKK Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 I can't even understand the concept "free time". Work is play play is work, only boring people get bored. Get interested in the world around you, take on inspiring projects and keep learning new things. The meaning of life - your mission here on this planet - is to discover (or invent) your purpose in life. Everyone has something that only s/he can do - do that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rsquared Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 You are only limited by your imagination. Surely there must be something that you have always had in the back of your mind that "one day I'm gunna try that".....no?? Well there are plenty of bars that need elbow support.

Popular Post trainman34014 Posted May 12, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted May 12, 2012 What spare time? I find I've been just as busy retired as what I was when I was working, always something to do if you include time riding yer Bike, in yer garden and on the Web. Never needed to spend any time in Bars. Restaurants sometimes but never Bars. I prefer mates to come round for a Beer or Wine or two. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisinth Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Move to Pattaya and open a bar. Get a few good looking girls and just watch the money pour in.

eek Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 As others have said 'what spare time?'! I have projects (which take up most of my time), followed by exercise, bike riding, and aiming to catch up with friends once a week (or every two weeks which often happens). Other pleasures I try to fit in are usually Art based or activity based. Some time for language studies. Some time for doing nothing but chilling out. Between all that and general everyday life and everyday chores, my days fly. I dont even go out at night much. Once a month or so..and havent for months. ..and this just whilst my bf is working away. Although in general i still do those things when he is here, probably more to boot. But then again, just enjoying simply relaxing together can make the day fly past in the blink of an eye. Profile hunting but a link would be wasted on the poor laddie unfortunately. I tell you what...the clue is in my avatar. Love that avatar btw smokie, hope you never change it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pattayadingo Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Family History. Fascinating subject, though you cannot do it all on-line. I have traced parts of my family back to the 1600's in Yorkshire. I have oodles of cousins in Oz. Computers, internet, travelling about, pubs, friends, music, reading, watching torrents I've downloaded. There are loads of things to do it is all a case of setting your mind to do what you want to do. In many ways it is much the same as having free time anywhere and finding some way of filling in that free time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
