Helmet Saves Life in Lucky Escape on Pattaya-Rayong Bypass
Seems my comment may have been misunderstood - I'm not suggesting there was no need to wear a helmet (a helmet should be worn at all times)... my point was to highlight that with sensible riding and not pulling across the road in that manner the accident would not have occured. -

When Willful Ignorance is a Way of Life
You write in a beautiful, elegant manner. Your abilities would be exponentially increased by making a few key breakthroughs. This op writing displays a glaring example of the affects of idolizing false idols and the unpleasant affects created instead of realizing God runs the show. You are looking at the wrong side of the equation. You are actually feeding into it, when starving it would work better. The beginning of wisdom is reverence for God and until you realize that you will be stuck deep in the mud writing this nonsensical gibberish. -

Some advice/opinions please on moving to Hua Hin
Nothing yet hk. We`ve had our house painted and a few repairs here and there taken care of, but the road where we live is flooded at the moment and the concrete road that the authorities have promised us is on hold until the rain abates. When we get round to a visit, I`ll certainly give you an update -

Marrying a Thai Wife: Overrated or Underrated?
Many non Asian men cannot understand this concept, the reality is that its part of Thai culture. If you live in Thailand with your Thai wife, you will of course be expected to support your wife's family - the trick is in knowing where the limits are and when you are simply being ripped off. A Thai man, if he had money, would face exactly the same in most cases. Its akin to 'family social security' - just remember that government social security doesn't exist (in reality) for many Thai citizens. However, its nothing to do with the fact that some Thai women actively target Western men in order to extract cash from them - there is a difference but it can sometimes be difficult to see. Many years ago I was asked to pay quite a large amount for an operation my then mother in law needed. I called a family meeting and told them straight - there are five children, all are married and all should contribute what they could afford, I was not going to pay for everything, I also had a family back home. I'm not going to claim it was accepted easily, they each had their excuses as to why they couldn't pay but at the end of the day, the MIL had her operation and I paid 40%. The biggest benefit of sitting them down and stating my case was that such requests were few and far between after that.
