Gweiloman Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Tommo, go back and search my posts dating months ago. ............... 5) I don't drink or visit go go bars (had this discussion with you several times) Please feel free to check previous posts to verify all of this information. Clearly it is beyond your comprehension that a person can spend time in Thailand without spending their days hunkered over a bar stool in a go-go bar? (*If your scratching your head at this post, TommoPhycisist is angry because some other TV members don't hang out with hookers. Useless spillover from another thread) And if you had read my previous posts, you would know I don't drink alcohol or hang around in bars either. Can't deny the hooker bit though, my sister-in-law (hooker) often comes to stay, I wish she didn't, but not my call. This the same sister your wife wants you to marry?

Vale Tudo Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Everytime I left Thailand I suffered from the Airport Blues,sitting at Suvarnabhumi in a deep depression,trying hard not to think about how I'd be back in the West in 12 hours or so. At least I was going back to the Mediterranean,my friends were going back to the UK,I was lucky! Anyway,I fixed the problem,I stayed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisinth Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 I figured I'd be let go at the job cos I'd just lost interest in the whole corporate bullshit machine and the drudgery of the Central Line crush from Holland Park to Bank stations every morning. I jumped before being pushed, sold the flat, invested the profits and left. Having never been to Thailand before, I had no intention of staying but the cost of living in Bangkok - even a Western lifestyle - was (and remains) considerably cheaper than my corner of West London and the local food was cheap and plentiful, I decided to hang on for a bit. The women - well, the majority of those available to foreigners - were not part of the decision to stay. I've had no shortage of female attention or company in any country. Interesting. But why Bangkok and not, say, Mexico City? Murder rate would have put me off.Murder rate would have put me off. After the two years, sorted myself out and moved up-country with my wife (not BG) Why did you mention that your wife's not a bar girl? I put that in as an after thought (actually edited to include), I think as a note to self that it could have been very different at some stages of my earlier experiences. It certainly wasn't put in as an insult to BG's; I have absolutely nothing against them. If that has caused offence to anyone, my apols. In fact, I think I know/knew more BG's that I could take at face value than the majority of idiots I have met over the last couple of days!

"Socking it away" at the moment, only upper-level positions offer pension packages, so hoping to work my way up. Working until 80? No, I hope not.

Nick in Thailand Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 I just lost a job back home and always wanted to work abroad. Since I just had turned 40, it was a "now or never"- decission. I work in tourism, have been to Thailand before (many times) on holiday and was interested in a new and different culture. Hell....I sure got that! I'll bet you're a liner.
