    Walking through the door

    Better start politely... I used to live outside ChiangMai in a small house in a small village with my husband. We came in the early 90ties and -and like so many before us- fell in love with the country and the ever smiling Thais. Got sort of adopted by a family, build a small house and stayed there in the cold European winter. Him with his books me in the garden. He died some years ago... perhaps to many books and to little gardening. I moved on and found a new man got him interested in LOS and came back to Chiang Mai but only on holidays. He is younger and is still working so we do not have the option of staying for months out there. I still have the bug though like the North a lot and will go on having holidays there. The house! I have tried to sell it. First it was leased to a couple then it was lent out to a friend.... perhaps it ends up remaining mine until we can retire there... I speak some Thai. Know a bit about the North of Thailand... and thats about it. Oh forgot to say that when we are there we do go to town. We have lost several quizz nights at the UN of course not the last place... getting the mug of beer but 2nd or 3rd

    welcome by the way.

    welcome eBeth.

    We like to have a laugh as well as share some useful(-less) information from time to time.

    And, as mentioned, there are a growing number of ladies on here who are starting to try to put us boys in our place. Try, I said.


    Welcome, chok dii... all that!

    Kayo!

    there is no nastiness in this section but your above posting is rather inflammatory. maybe a mod could move it somewhere else so it could be dealt with appropriately.

    Welcome ebeth. enjoy yourself here

    -Thanks for the welcome...It might be to early for jokes.... but then again! If I should remember all the handsome men in that place my little head would burst Then you remember the Liz Taylor type.... (small, fattish, white) We had the strange name "Elders of Elsinore" sort of went with a Shakespearean theme then.

    CMN, you dastardly dashing thing, you!

    Welcome, ebeth! We have three elders, GOW, Lily and Ice Maiden. Several acolytes, including November Rain, Patsycat and Terrry57. But, gender doesn't mean much here. You play fair or mean or smart, and you'll get along just fine. Crybabies, hosers and nastypants are dealt with in short shrift.

    You can try and sell your house here, too. Use photos. TDers like lots of photos.

    Learn how to use the green and red buttons. For example, you should try to red Dirty Dog and see what happens.

    Hope to hear some good comments from you. If you and your hubby were once know as the Elders of Elsinore, I'm sure you'll fit in just fine. Just remember, you aren't in Denmark anymore.

    Are you including Tel with the ladies, Jet? You know he won't like that! He's locked his feminine side in a straitjacket, put it in a trunk & dumped it in the sea last time he was on Samui - he won't be happy if you've rescued it!

    Ooh! That's mean! Don't do that, ebeth. If you want to experiment with reds, I believe Jet has just volunteered to be your guinea pig!

    Hope to hear some good comments from you. If you and your hubby were once know as the Elders of Elsinore, I'm sure you'll fit in just fine. Just remember, you aren't in Denmark anymore.
    Nor in Kansas, Toto...


    Welcome, ebeth. Hope to see a lot more of you.

    If you CM boys and girls are nice you could be included on the guestlist for my 52nd b-day if I am not completely old or forgetful by then... the UN quiz teamname came up due to undecisive members of the team (read:the men)...could have been Babes of Bahamas or whatever..... Well, HB! Yes I am sort of pinkish white in the winter and sort of pinkish white in the summer so I do pas as farang. HB! Yes, the house is build on my friends land and yes it has chanot....but that should be another tread (or pm for web link)
    I will read up on greenies and reds. For now it is the garden which is calling and as it is sunshine today and 12 degrees centigrade I better go and do some weeding.... remember daisies, dandelions, thistles cold climate pests.
    Cheers and thanks again for the welcome...
