Hello! Many of the older members will remember me from the other boards. I lived in Jomtiem for a bit and I have been visiting Thailand for 30 years or so.

We walked into the Thai festival and immediately lost Andy. Thought he had found the local soi 6 facility but stupid me, he had found the beer tent. Having a good time with Gazza, Adam, Andy and families. Fun for a few hours. Singha beer £10 for 4 cans, Thai food dishes around £5. All having a great time

Heya People, I am Barni, born austrian, living in switzerland for 15 years. I have been to thailand many times. Next time i will return on 2nd of oct for a month. I plan to fly into chiang mai, grab a dirtbike and ride whereever i feel it might be a good idea. Please be patient, my english is mediocre. Stickman mentioned this forum in his column, and i am looking forward to join a community site with people having a nice and peaceful attitude. All the best Barni

Just drove to Birmingham to the mobile thai embassy. it offers a full service for all the Thais in the uk for any documents. I can’t believe how busy the place is and how many are here. Not only is it just like been in Thailand it even smells like Thailand. all I need is for some one to shout out falang falang Look no shoes By all accounts it travels around the country every few weeks Added:- The flooring is worn out, it would be silly not to had out a few business card and offer a good price ...!

Hi, I am Peter, visiting Thailand since 2013, next trip begins on 28th October I also learned about the forum on Stick`s site.

Hi everyone on the forum. Been using another, large Thai forum for years but find that all the adverts has now put me off of it. Met a chap at the Birmingham Thai temple today who told me he had started this forum, so thought I’d give it a go. I retired when I was 47 (now 66) and at 50, moved to Thailand in 2000 with my Thai wife, who I met in the UK in 1998 where she was doing her second degree. Moved to HuaHin and had a beach house, just down from the Palace. Fantastic life, as I was on a retirement visa, and spent most of our time traveling. We spend time between Thailand and UK. Hope to enjoy this forum. Khun Don.

Hello everyone. Been here forever and a day, Bangkok and out in the sticks, not planning to go anywhere soon. Let's see how this forum works out, for sure we need an alternative. Have fun!

Good Day All A visitor to LOS since 1985, the era of the Purple Persuader. Pre HIV, pre internet, all information came by word of mouth and this probably led to many misunderstandings and myths. First trip stayed at a guest house Soi 38 Sukhumvit which was still a dirt road with very little development beyond the Mui Thai Academy a hundred yards in . Happy Days. I look forward to participating on this forum.

Retired Air Trafiic Controller, married to a Thai, homes in Ubon and Troon, Scotland.

Hi all. New to the group. First visited Thailand around 2009 and have been back several times every year since. Ultimately I plan to retire to Thailand (but also will consider Bali, Cambodia and Vietnam) but, unfortunately personal circumstance mean I'm stuck in the UK for a few more year. Nice to meet everyone.

Hello all. Just arrived on site. Looks good. Hope to be here for a long time.

And a Frenchie too!!😝

I you lose him again look for the gin tent.

Just woken up after a 9 hour sleep (much needed). Need to contact Andy to see what time this crew is going to meet up at the Bristol Thai festival, meeting Gazza and AJSP also.

Katesiree opposite the hospital is where i always stay these days. Great rooms and quiet. 700 a night all year round. Large leo 70 baht cant go wrong

Keep your sex life out of it.

Hope you enjoy it there as much as I do. There's an Aussie guy on You Tube with a channel call "Johnny There is Somehting Happening". He lives in Hua Hin and posts some good restaurant reviews. If you like fishing too, visit Hua Hin Fishing Lodge. Great day out and owned by a Brit.

Thanks Krapow, I was lucky retiring when I did and meeting my future wife made the decision easy.

Welcome Don.. Yes that would have been me selling the forum to all the men hanging around in smokers corners while the girls do the paperwork.. lol

Just getting my make up on, I'm the surprise guest star.

Sorry for your loss.

Nice looking girl Arty. Nice to see all the pics of Thai girls, I missed that elsewhere.

The ex and me when she organised a surprise birthday party for me (55). Shame I knew what she was up to a couple of weeks earlier, Thais can't keep their mouths shut.

Ahhhhh, the days before political correctness. Where are all those young men now, I know, the ones who voted for Brexit.

Emirates for me, been flying with them now for eight years. Very fortunate in that my company buy me business class flights. Dubai/Bangkok/Dubai is always the A380 Nice little upgrade to first class on my last flight from Dubai.

Life is good here in Bristol. So good to see Binlid after far too long. We are now eating in Zah Zah Bazaar...

Hi folks just signed up. Recognise quite a few names on here. Love the idea of no abuse. I use the same log in on all of the Thai forums that I am a member of. Looking forward to joining in. Been coming to Thailand since 2006, haven't made it every year though. Do you have to have made a few posts before you can attach pics.

Kateserie Bar - 70bht - fuck the exchange rate 👍😇

Some of you may know me from other sites or have met me in the LOS IRT. Found this forum through my old friend Roomark. Glad to be here for a breath of fresh air. Sincerely, Steelers4Life

I use either Thai or EVA, but mainly EVA for the last 4 years. I'll explain why. Living in Bristol, Heathrow is our best Airport to fly from. We could fly from Bristol to Amsterdam and then connect, but did it once with China Air and it was, to be honest, a friggin nightmare. Heathrow is 2 hours from home, so easy to get to. I like the THAI and EVA Flight times, 9pm ish. This means I can get a half days work done, then leave at 4pm to get to Heathrow. I don't samoke or like a break to stretch my legs, so direct is perfect. I like to arrive in BKK around 3pm as connecting flight to Udon is c5.15
