    Things I miss about Thailand ...

    Well I have been back a few weeks now,First thing I noticed was the dam weather,
    It nearly killed me.

    Spent the first week in the U.K wearing a coat in doors 24/7.

    It nice to be able understand and not think twice while talking to someone.I found
    myself saying random Thai words to English people who looked at me like I
    was crazy,These mainly being .. Copen Kab,Del Gon,Sabai Sabai,Tama lie(Ignore the spelling)

    So what do I miss....

    The heat and the ability to wear flip flops everyday is up there.

    The cheapness of everything compared to England,£1.20 for a bottle of pop that would cost £0.60 in LOS stands out.

    And the biggest thing I miss...
    Even though I didnt cheat on my Mrs and have no plans to,While you are
    in Thailand its possible to organise an Orgy for less than £100.00 in five minutes.

    I think this possibility to any guy is something that lighten's his mood even if he
    never follows through with the possibility.

    I'm back in Blighty at the moment for a few months.
    Been here about 10 days now.
    Am not missing Thailand at all up until now, although it's bloody cold here.
    People here are miserable, don,t smile much, girls are fat, ugly and think they are the bees knees.
    The blokes are loud mouthed meatheads with no manners and too much hair gel.
    Actually don,t mind the smoking ban much.
    Big bottle of Stella is 75 baht at sainsburys.
    Missing Laosy like mad.
    Cigarettes are paeng.
    Local buses are about a pound a mile.
    Still can't work out how Spanish olives are more expensive here than in Thailand?
    Did think it was amusing that the waiter in the local Thai restaurant can't speak Thai.
    says he's never been there?
    Falling asleep and waking up is not the same as passing out and coming to.

    I don't miss much - mainly the availability of cheap, cooked to order food at almost any time of the day/night, scenery & general friendliness. I also miss jinjoks and noisy frogs. Don't miss the heat cos I can't stand being hot.

    I have ignored the spelling, but I still don't have a clue what Thai words these are meant to be (apart from sabai sabai..)

    I just sent my wife and son back to Thailand advanced party seems the weather is just as bad there.I always notice when out with the family in blighty all the blokes are rubber necking and walking in to things checking out my wife.And all the farang women,are probably thinking pervert he married a 22 year old.My wife weighs 43kg but is 39 years old,that is 9 years older than me.
    Don't you just love having a Thai wife/girlfriend,makes everyone in the U.K think lucky bastard.

    dao gon as i read your del gon is the same as-

    butch um butch um butch um birt

    Stand like a train with your arms at 90 degrees, now as you pull your arms back, thrust your pelvis forward

    Do this 4 times whilst shouting butch um butch um butch um birt

    There you have dao gon

    The way it is spellt, it doesn`t make any sense.
    There is no word in thai/lao that is pronounced with an L-sound at the end of a word.

    Diaw gone as Orroz suggests or if one likes to be a bit more polite:

    Raw sak khoo na khrap
    please hold on a moment
