She has sprung a baby on you now? Are you in Thailand with her or what?There is no prior mention of a baby in any of your other posts!

Terrible spelling, I am withdrawing my kids from Eton forthwith.

I decided not to send them a cheque....

I missed you.... still a good stable of girls there.

Reports of overnight stays in Brunei are not positive..... there is no competition on seeing most countries.

Yes agreed, they are very sexy, and I watched them defer 2 drunked up Brits from further drink for hours as I sat behind them! I had to keep sneaking off to the galley to get mine.....

That makes more sense, she is the youngest daughter, and the oldest.... the only one! Yes generally it is expected that she takes care of her parents.The brothers are expected to take care of their own families. The 20k goes to the girlfriend's account?..... do you know what happens to it after that? Your only option is to put forward the circumstances.... that she can come to the UK and live with you, and you will ensure xxx baht is available for her family. You can also explain that she can get work in the UK and supplement this. Also offer regular trips back for her, annual or bi-annual. The veiled threat that you may 'move on' could make her think hard, but you are asking a lot of her. I don't recommend bringing the mother to the UK at all. (This comment is perhaps more applicable to my circumstances, I would rather have a rabid Rottweiler in the house and I hate dogs... )

Possibly......You posted asking for opinions, no need to get shirty because you don't like some of the comments. You haven't supplied enough details for a valid evaluation.... but.. If she is the youngest daughter, there is often some responsibility for a parent. The 20k you give, is it to the TGF or her mother? It is a substantial amount for most Thai families in the villages. Consider that perhaps you are being played, and go get to know the family.

It is currently, for a single person £95.25 a week and £152.30 for a couple. As of the beginning of April a UK pensioner living in LOS cannot now claim for his Thai wife. This brought up some discrepancy when the guy of 75 died and his 25 year old wife still got the pension. It was not designed for these circumstances.

Well actually I live in Thailand, and I obviously forgot you did......

Well save up those ill-gotten gains and perhaps you can come live here like me one day.

Crook...... and likely a wanker too!

How awful for you to be so poor as to resort to criminal activity to afford life....

Scams abound here....... Tops Supermarket parking, supposed to be free for up to an hour... but he wanted 30 baht when I drove out 45 minutes later. The ticket had me arriving 3 hours earlier than actual but leaving on time. Annoying......

Did it ever actually sell a rib? I heard of it and when I went there it appeared to never have been opened.

Care to tell....?

Yes of course he did.....Perhaps if he had told you that someone paid over the odds for it you would have been less distressed. After all, greed is good.

Yes, I have wondered about the language block or is it a 'one thing at a time' brain block you get here.....? Soda, no ice...'You want ice?' Pepper steak, medium, with french fries. 'How you like cook'...... Err medium 'Chip or baked potato'... So come on guys, help these poor gals out, one thing at a time.

Bloody things are everywhere, and the surrounding streets too, not just the one up to the Bangkok bank.But as a place to live I found this pretty good. During the day the dogs laze around, coming back at night I was on a bike and they left me alone. Once I even saw some guys blowdarting them and taking them off in cages. One of my small problems with living in LOS is their attitude to their pets and strays.

Yes I was going to make that comment... but I couldn't find the MU game last weekend so I wonder if that situaation will last.I seem to reacall some mention that the EPL wanted the SA channels to move the location to prevent SE Asia effectively picking it up for free. This Thaivisa thread discusses it, as someone says, I will be happy if I can see the last games for this season.

For the most part they are done.... these are words that came forth.They aren't, without engines, they aren't even aircraft.

Either they are built or they are not......Minus engines doesn't sound like an aircraft 'ready to go' to me.

Nurse...nurse....

Well there is a box saying Night Walker, and it is filed under Nightmarch. The advert at the end looking for a writer sort of gives it away somewhat!

This guy is loaded, hardly typical..... Welcome to the board and I hope you get to double digits.....
