Things can't be too bad, only on no.20 and four pages of entertainment. Was thinking along the lines of:
If you don't come the local economy will suffer and baht lose value so all the miserable grumpy ex-pats will find their money goes a lot further and will have to find something else to complain about, or start to learn Mandarin to communicate with the tourists that do come.

"Tongue in cheek" is an appropriate description for this thread and hopefully that is apparent now.

Number 21: Buying things can be a nightmare. Shop assistance is nil to zero. Most products that you see on the shelves are usually out of stock and, on the odd occasion, you might get something in bright orange when you actually wanted grey.

Number 22: While enjoying Thailand's rampant prostitution scene (shhh... don't tell the wife) you may get to the hotel room and find the indigenous 'Bald-headed yogurt slinger' instead of the preferred 'bearded clam'.

No.23 - Because when you get here you may actually love all the craziness and decide never to return home. :wink: :D

No.24 - Because the government refuses to let us pay council tax.


No.25 - Because there are no central heating services in Thailand.

Number 26: If you go to Cambodia, you get to see the beautiful Preah Vihear temple...

... if you come to Thailand you get to see (if the government allows you to) some tacky copy.

Number 26: Visit Thailand go every where and never understand a thing as all the signs are only in Thai.

Have you been to Ayutthaya, wonderful ancient buildings and temples, impossible to understand what any of it is about.

Good thing no UK, German, French, Swiss, Chinese, Indian etc tourists ever come here.
