I certianly love to Bitch about Thailand, I'm a Pom, Limey fok; always whinging because it gives me pleasure and feeds my complex. Thers a lot of Thailand to bitch about - which of course I love to enjoy...but seriously what do you love about Thailand? My examples below are fairly lame, my main enjoyment are the idiosyncrasies and condtradictions between West and East, haveing a Thai wife highlights that.
I just went downstairs to the bottom of my Soi and ordered myself a beer at half two in the morning, wish granted plus due to one translator we ended up with TRUE channel 62 thus the boxing... The local policeman was with watching too.
...Fok I left my wallet at the top of the soi in my apartment; "It's OK pay me back for the beer when you can is replied."
OK, thanks, I'll get you a beer in (lieu) thanks.
replies "OK thanks; Mr X will share a Chang with Mr Z"
I forget my Ciggies too I explain...We'll sort you out don't worry..."Thanks" I reply.
(unfortuantley Wonder ciggies though I like the way you can buy a cigarettes in singles here)
I love the fact that every time I walk down my Soi I'm recognised and with my son the genuine attention is so real, regarding my son I could spend a whole night on the piss and all the girls will look after him.
My moto drivers know me now and literally put me in the most convienient place right up the soi to save hassle, same price.
I bought my Noodle man a bottle of 100 Pipers for Songkhran, even though a small gesture I only get the best noodles for the same price as my regular choice, all ingrediants included - plus the fact a shot of whiskey should I be late from work.
I've also left my ATM in a machine; I will whinge because I hate the way that the machine says please take you card and then money; but what always happens is that your money comes first so under the influence it's not that hard to forget your card. I had a very kind girl run after me and get that card back to me.
And of course being married to my Thai wife, the right girl will look after you, support you and understand even if you are a complete drunken moron sometimes; like me
(Don't mention foking escalators however)
