    Unlike SA, I had no ties to the country, and deliberately arranged for a smaller number of ducks to get in a row. If you wish to be continually at the whim of Thai IO’s and their grim discretionary powers, good luck to you.
    I used my legendary free will to make the move.

    I would always advise against a bloke turning up for a renewal in a yellow floral summer frock.

    Talking of frocks, next week is language week at school, where the teachers have to dress up in different country costumes. I have been 'dared' to wear my Scottish kilt (albeit with 'tackle' protection underwear, since no doubt the youngest kids will want to peer up my skirt!!). I'm not convinced that wearing a big frock and sporran to school is a good idea...

    I've been given some kindergarten classes this year, probably because I am the least physically intimidating person in the entire school lol. Unrelated, but kinda related i guess: would folks consider 32 to lessons a week as a heavy load?

    Is that 32 KG lessons? That sounds like hell on earth! Regardless of the grade, 32 is way over a fair in-class workload. My in-class workload is 15 lessons a week (40 minutes each), but I also stay in the classroom during their Chinese, Myanmar, Music and Art classes to 'perv' at the female teachers. (joke!! for those with a minimal SoH)

    Actually, the written language level in the Myanmar lessons is just right for my current level of learning.

    Agreed, I never worked more than 22, I probably averaged 16-17 over the years.

    Why would your word get around? In Koh Samui? I left there 5 years ago, by choice, preceded by 5 months working in Qatar, where I also left by choice.

    Please explain anything you don’t understand and I will explain it for you. I realise you have some fears about openness and honesty on your own part, but I have nothing to hide.
