Stravaig Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 We're in the process of moving house and we've had loads of help from several Thai people (friendly, helpful guys with a pick-up truck, and a couple of admin ladies). Naturally we want to do something to thank them even though it's not a requirement. What do you think would be suitable? I was thinking along the lines of something they could all share. Any suggestions, please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lamphun Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 A bottle of Scotch usually works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BKK90210 Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Just throw a small "thank you" party for them. Either at your new place or some restaurant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mighty Mouse Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Take them all out to dinner or invite them to a home cooked extravaganza at your house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stravaig Posted March 22, 2006 Author Share Posted March 22, 2006 There's a nice local Thai restaurant just down the road (surprise!). That's probably the answer - and we could probably stretch to a bottle, or two, of Thai whisky. As long as they don't drop the big TV (television not ThaiVisa) tomorrow, this could be a goer. Wow, you guys are fast with your answers. It's almost 6am - don't you go to bed at night either? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaoPo Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Wow, you guys are fast with your answers. It's almost 6am - don't you go to bed at night either? Some of us are not so lucky at the moment of being in LOS and suffer the cold and have to go to bed soon Good luck with your party...that will be fun, guaranteed...and what's more: THEY WILL NEVER FORGET YOU, being generous, and you will have a lot of new friends. Good for everybody! LaoPo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farangene Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Most Thai workers are very appreciative about receiving pictures of the king ---especially when his picture is on a Thai currency denomination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdinasia Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I'd almost agree with the $$ thing .... BUT if the people did it because they were friends or more than passing acquaintances $$ would be demeaning. Much better to do something nice. If they worked as a group ... something with all of them ... if the guys did labor and the women did something else ... then apart. Good luck to you!
