Re: Hilton Discrimminates against Thais

I was there the other nite. They let in underage Farang chicks but not so with the Thai's there is a double standard. Erm... I can concur. Five years ago when my blonde-haired daughter was fifteen she had no trouble at all getting in to the Hilton Pub. I think that was the last time I went there. I...

Re: Transfer of company bought house to Thai wife

I did lease ok ......... hope it's legal, you got me worried now :shock: Burger Sorry to get you worried. This was just what we were told by the lawyer we went to last year. I assume your lease was drawn up by a lawyer and maybe there are different ways of doing things. This is Thailand after all! ...

A kink of katoeys? :thumb: a Lad of Ladyboys a Bay of Ladyboys a Cabaret of Ladyboys a Show of Ladyboys a Bully of Ladyboys? I agree that on their own they can be inter...

A woman trying to get out?

Hi Big Boy, Picked on twice at lady boy shows, come off it I bet you slipped him something for a chance to get on stage. In side every man is a woman trying to get out :lach: As a 60s, 70s bloke I have always felt the woman inside of me trying to get out. And she is a lesbian! However, the lesbian-...

Re: Road up grade Soi 102

Totally agree, it is soul destroying when your house get wrecked by flood water. Would not wish that experience on anyone! Soul-destroying for sure. I have a huge library of books and in the next few weeks will move in to a significantly bigger house and finally get this library sorted. But in Octo...

Of late one seeketh high & low, far & wide for Colmans Original Mustard Powder. There are none of the smaller tins in evidence, only the big ones. I wonder if anyone knows if the mustard should be frozen in powder form or whether it retains it's taste best if frozen when made into ready mus...

Re: University

Thailand is a country about the same size as the UK. Thailand is more than twice as big as the UK!! Area-wise I agree with you - sorry I did not make myself more clear. Thailand is about 500,000 sq km to the UK 250,000 sq km. Area-wise Thailand is about the same size as France. The gist of my argum...

When the Elite card was introduced it struck me as yet another of those schemes whereby the mega-rich Chinese ruling classes believed that their Farang counterpart were in the same league. These people live in cloud-cuckoo-land. Many are the times I have surprised colleagues by telling them that my ...

Traffic Lights

We definitely do not need any more traffic lights that stay on red for 170 seconds. The two sets in town are so poorly co-ordinated that you can guarantee getting caught by both of them - every time. It is that or accelerate to 80 kph in second or third gear and hope you make it through the second s...

Re: Road up grade Soi 102

Any one hear if the city has any future plans to address the flooding problem up Soi 102. (ie: New sewer pipe) I was quite shocked to see the water level two weeks ago after the night of rain. I have lived on Soi 102 for the last three years. Renting. We've blocked up the doors and sand bagged the ...
