It just seems that you and Tex dislike these people so much and yet hang around with them all the time, which doesn't make much sense.
When I was in Pattaya I saw some of these people around, but I made bloody sure I didn't sit and drink in the same bar as them.
Been back in sunny blighty nearly a year and haven't seen a chav, fight, argument, hooligan or nottin'.
In fact, I'd go as far to say that British teenagers are a bloody nice bunch in general.
As someone else said (another thread perhaps?) the history goes back to the Scummers (So'ton) breaking a dockyard strike.Originally Posted by Texpat
The real reason? You just documented it yourself with the words 'asshole' & 'twat'. As I said - you're mixing with the wrong people. My ex-hubby and his family are Pompey. My ex (for his faults) would never start a fight in a bar - and though I'm sure some of his cousins might, anyone with any sense wouldn't mix or associate with them.
Quote of the week!Originally Posted by NickA
We (their countrymen) wouldn't hang around with them, yet you both seem to. Why? Just to moan about them?
Fuck Rain, I don't give a shit. You think everyone is supposed to give these assholes a pass because of some bullshit nobody but them cares about?
This is the kind of arrogance I'm talking about.
You assholes think you own the place. And whine every time something doesn't go your way. Just ain't proper, is it? Gimme a fucking break.
Then you have the temerity to call Americans Ugly.
Find a mirror, quickly.
It's probably because Brits have to kick up a bit of a fuss to fall out with people.
Americans try to be nice and everybody wants to kick their head in
Aaahhh ok fair enough. I now know what you mean. On the odd occasion I have been to Patts, I have seen exactly the kind of person your talking about. I know of a pretty big time drug dealer, who is on the run, and living in Pattaya. Another scum bag, who claimed to have lost everything in the tsunami. His local paper back home ran a story on his so called plight, and even raised money for him to recoup his losses. Thats just two people I know of, yet I can spot the type a mile off. I dont know if any other nationalities have exported this kind of person (I suspect they have), but I have met some rather suspect Icelandic folk.
I aint superstitious, but I know when somethings wrong
I`ve been dragging my heels with a bitch called hope
Let the undercurrent drag me along.
Nowadays, many educated Geordies, especially in the urban areas, have a wider degree of competence in both standard and nonstandard speech so that, depending on context, they have a range of forms at their disposal. Generally, the more informal the context, the greater the number of dialect features in a conversation, you can get a Geordie dictionary if unsure, they also do a version of the bible in Geordie.Originally Posted by Loy Toy
Geordie language is, in fact, quite closely allied to Lowland Scottish and also uses much language from the Angle areas of what is now southern Denmark.
I for one am very proud to be able to speak fuent Geordie, many people from other parts of England are so arrogant about the dialect they think it is just slang terms being used, in fact they are real words just not ones you will find in the 'Oxford' dictionary.
Same same Isaan.
I dunno, I really have never met the kind of people you are talking about.Originally Posted by Texpat
Would never frequent the same low class establishments.

Brave of you to admint that NoodlesOriginally Posted by English Noodles
Sorry, There aren't any better upscale cloth napkin and valet parking joints in the area.
You're stretching here. These assholes ruin the place for everyone and give farangs a bad name. The truth is that most other nationalities are willing to forgive and forget. But that restraint is wearing thin.
Your countrymen up here are mostly goddamn idiots. And nobody gives a fuck if there from Wales or Scotland -- yes, I'm talking about the UK. Learn some manners, please.
^Poor Texy. I really feel sorry for you.
Maybe you should take a leaf out of CMN's (I taught him everything he knows) book and become a recluse
Not brave at all, when Thai people ask me about North East England I call it Issaan Angrit, Both places are North East Regions, Both places left to erode by countless past governments, both places the inhabitants are often looked down upon by the rest of the countries people, both places were/are traditionaly poor areas, both places border another country with whom the people have a strong connection with, both places the people are very proud to be from the area, both places produce the most hospitable people etc etc etc. The comparisons are almost endless.Originally Posted by NickA

What does it say about the country your living in then? From what people are saying, it seems to attract one hell of a lot scum from my country. You already stated that the other Brits you met in Japan, were not of this sort.
Mate I would love to watch that one and to see what ethnic background these football hooligans are. Unfortunately I have to sign up to do so.
I can remember working out at the Sydney Football Stadium as a kid (then it was called the Sydney Sports Ground) and there were often fights between the turks, lebos and of course the serbs and croatian football suporters.
No, the truth is that there are many decent people out there, of all nationalities. If you choose to frequent the places that twats hang out, then I guess that's your look-out. Most of us can tell decent people from arseholes, though, and choose not to associate with the arseholes. End of.Originally Posted by Texpat

Got any spare space for The Loy Toy clan cobber?
And my missus can understand the many english dialects and after working in an English Pub for nearly 10 years.
One to ask the Australians....
If Australia is such a great place, what you doin' in Thailand?
