NoshowJones Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I'm 6ft. I'm going to bring some clothes back with me. And stuff for the gym, water bottles, a new pair of training shoes. All of which seem very expensive here. I get my trainers from Amazon, not expensive. I'm also 6ft. but being slim I have no problem buying the clothes I wear here in Thailand.

i claudius Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Depression on being back here Why come back ? wife, seriously thinking of going back for good though bring wife or leave her here ? If bringing her...then she will be depressed. Thai women (making assumption here) do notoriously poorly outside of Thailand emotionally ...loneliness in missing their Thai friends consumes them GOSH my wife loved the UK, would go back if I wanted to , but is happy here as well,most Thai women we ever met liked the UK, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
