Please don't tell me this happens back in my own country.

Watch Jeremy Kyle. It will make you feel better.

^ I've got 3 kids of my own. Beside, the BiL has remarried and has a daughter which he looks after perfectly well. Nah, the BiL needs to face up to his responsibilities and look after his son, or pay someone to do it ie his ex wife. The boy's now aged 10 and has been past from pillar to post since dot one.

the BiL needs to face up to his responsibilities

Good luck telling a Thai male that one

The same seems to apply to the mother in this case as well.

[crepitas]

Actually cannot find so:

Gotta love it!
Jan 1 went to local Tesco lite for a few things. Saw sign… cases of Leo beer 2 for 800 baht valid till 5th Jan. After 2pm so cannot buy...Went back today 4th...Staff denies all knowledge..Sigh..

[Horatio Hornblower]

We were in Ubon bigC last week,and no one was able to buy before 5pm something to do with the holiday season.

Been the law for a couple of years. No alcohol sales between 2pm and 5pm.

Chances are the staff bought the lot and sold it on.

...and only observed and abided by those commercial shopping chains.

[Sumbitch]

Did you have to mention that? I wouldn't have known better.

[Pragmatic]

You are correct Jeff. Whilst the village Tesco won't sell you alcohol to you during certain times, the cop owned restaurant 25 meters away will.

Funny. I just reported that.......

[Sumbitch]

so the one you're subscribed to is the valid one? And you'd have no reason to subscribe to the other one unless you searched for it, eh?

As posted before, I've got a semi adopted daughter, father took off, mother found a new man in BKK, left with the outlaws, FIL, MIL.
I, wife arrive on the scene, around 12 years ago, kids 4 years old, sort of took over responsibility.

Thing that pisses me of most, her father, new wife and child are far from poor, own 2 houses, plus shop houses in Krabi town, palm and rubber plantations, new cars, not talking Baht, but $, well richer then this poor Issan rubber farmer.

Responsibility seems to end, when you can't be bothered anymore, for me, l'll be taking care of her for a long time to come.

Smart kid at school, but, tall and fat, career and no husband, teacher probably..

[Pragmatic]

Good on you Jim. Unfortunately the BiL's son is so neglected by his grandmother, father and mother that he's past my help. There's still a chance with his mother but that's to be discussed. I just don't know how people can just switch off.

Day 5 of what is obviously double pneumonia and at least triple pleurisy, but like a man, I'm trying to drink my way out of it.

[palexxxx]

^ Well done that man. Carry on.

Ah..
Dehydration - that'll work.

In between the drinks, have some ginger tea.

[Kurgen]

I can't stand ginger. I've had a few hot toddies if that counts?

[Latindancer]

What doesn't kill you will make you stronger.

[Sumbitch]

^^ Not even Canadian Dry?

[Dapper]

What doesn't kill you will make you stronger.

Or just more fvcking irritating in your case.

^ For a simpleton, you occasionally come out with some funny stuff.
