Hey Pete, looks like I will be missing you guys for another year or so while I save up for my impending retirement in about 5 years from the navy..I will be purchasing a condo or house there, any sugestions about same? spring PS. Tell all the girls spring said hello, sorry no spring games for awhile..lol..they no what I mean

yeah, I've got another 5 years or so before my retirement from the navy, and will make a few more trips to complete the process and purchase a condo or house, I can't wait, I am getting to old after 25 years mucking around on these damm ships!lol...

Thanks for the prompt response everybody, and yes I will if needed hire a lawyer to complete the transaction, I do have about 4 years until retirement to make up my mind, all the best spring

Greeting fellow Board members; I have been working for Military Sealift Command for 25 years and plan on retirement in Thailand. I have been coming to Thailand for many years but just recently decided to make this my home. Plan on buying a condo or house, planning to spend about 2,000,000 to 3,000,000 baht, but so far a house seems a little out of my reach, but there seems to be a deal of condo's which are priced within my budget. Ok, having said all that...would appriciate any advice on the above, contracts, pitfalls, good deals ect. I should have the savings needed in about 4 years

Thanks for clarifying that issue..I have asked to attend a party by a Thai business owner..

I will definitly be checking it out soon as I am staying on Soi Diana right now and the breakfast over there looks better..spring

Well once again I had ice with my rum and coke and once again got sick for two days only from the ice..so as they say ..up to you...

its 1100 am and I am sitting in the beer garden right now and the music is fine...spring

Well..I have only into a fight once in Pattaya and it was with young german guy who grabbed my grilfriends very shapely ass, The rest of the time I am there I am VERY careful because I work on US navy ships and the navy will put up on charges all the best, Spring see ya all in about 25 hours

Thanks Pete, And this time I SWEAR I will be a little more patient with the freelancers, and give it a better go around all the Best, spring

Hey Pete, No real problem with the current music, besides I just have my own music if I don't like the current song, see you and your lovely staff in about a week when I arrive for my punishment for breaking my arm all the best spring

Hey Pete, glad all is going well over there..still at sea but forced to head back to the USA for the first time in over four years because of documents expiring..but instead of hanging out in the US for 10-14 weeks I intend on spending my waiting time in Pattaya ..that is if the Swine flu problem does'nt stop me from getting into Thailand keep us all updated on the traval restrictions getting into Thailand ect..ok? all the best, Spring

Yes, they do. The only time we get dental work done for free is if its an emergency and we are traveling with the battle group when the emergency comes up, then we can get ANY medical treatment for free until we hit the next port, then we are on own

kasier71; I am on a US navy ship, but we are not active duty , but still fall under most of the rules, in other words we fall into a gray zone, carry weapons but not with all the benefits, its kind hard to explain spring
