Why is the earth always exposed in photos around there? Where is the grass and gardens one would expect of a tropical environment like Thailand?

I'm not sure that Por can read. I think five decades worth of moonshine abuse has distorted the old bugger's vision. Might give a copy to the shopkeeper though - he gets a fairly complimentary write-up. Not sure that I should give it to Granddad, mind you - he might beat me up with a dead fish and urinate on me.Quote:

Make haste to the local shop and relieve the Frigidaire of several dozen large bottles of award winning ale.
Retreat to the solace of your balcony where your previously purchased Saturday essentials await you. These are:
1. A child's shotgun. While the facade is playful, the weapon is actually capable of inflicting a satisfactory sting to its recipient - the much abhorred moggie.
2. A glorious tome of short stories and anecdotes.
Then simply spend the rest of your day getting drunk, reading, and shooting cats - all from the vantage point of your own veranda.
What a fucking splendid day!

Myself, when my cats annoyed me. I would just clap my hands, that made them stop in their tracks. And give me the evil eye.
Red sent, book review to be changed...
They simply get the stare here in England - the folk around here seem look down upon people who throw them over the garden fence.Quote:

Don't you know it's common practice to shoot to kill if you have a piece of wood in your hand in the UK?
Monday in the tropics. What you need is a nice steaming hot bowl of broth, a litre of Lau Khao, and a gloriously quaffable tome of short Southeast Asian based anecdotes.
Go forth and consume, gentlemen - I insist.

You put your soup bowl on a plate. How posh is that.
Us over here use the same plate and utensils for every meal. Saves on the washing up.
My maid always serves our soup bowls on plates.
That's not a plate. That's Slaps rain hat he puts on the table to stop the ants getting his soup.Quote:

Since visas seem to be something of a pertinent subject at present, I think it only right that I share my pearls of bureaucratic wisdom with the expat collective.
Hateful scenarios like the one below can avoided - you've just gotta ask yourself one question: Visa run or The Wire box set?
Something of a no brainer, I'm certain you'll concur...

Buy this book, the Koran for those who refuse to kowtow to mickey mouse legislation - but then again, if you refuse to kowtow to mickey mouse legislation you probably haven't got a credit card, in which case get your mum to buy it for you, and all your mates. :D
