    I got mine off Lazada with 2 cup holders. In fact I have to order another one. Last time all the kids came over swimming they were jumping in it and ripped a seam. Doesn't hold air anymore.

    So, I opened this thread for the first time today - ended up reading the whole thread (beats working I suppose). Absolutely fascinating. Not so much the actual pool build, but the seething, teeth hurting jealously expressed by several posters.

    KW has a huge compound, and money to build a pool. If you think he is renting you are fucking delusional. He is clearly successful and well paid, and that hits many of you in the gut. You all live the lives you chose, but many of you made really, really bad choices.

    Many of you need to grow the fuck up.

    And here I was thinking I was being helpful by avoiding shit fights and trying to share a decent build thread blow by blow (so to speak).

    I believed they were just taking the piss out on DW knowing he is not some janitor at a boarding school. But maybe not? Hard to tell sometimes with posters.

    I seriously doubt he would pack up his family, move at his expense to South Africa to be a janitor. Just like I wouldn't have packed up and moved to SEAsia to live in Pattaya to shag hookers and ride Scooters drunk.

    Only tax has suggested he's actually a janitor.

    Nobody has suggested he's renting his accommodation, as nidhogg posted.

    He's working as part of (or head of) boarding accommodation staff at a school.

    And kidding on that he's living some sort of well-heeled lifestyle.

    I used to teach at a boarding school, and I reckon I can picture fairly well how working on the boarding staff in Africa would go.

    Free accommodation and food (and security) with the boarders, plus pocket money.

    nidhogg can picture it about as well as I can picture a westerner working in a hospital context in Bangkok, which is not that well at all.

    Anyone who thinks he's got a lucrative job living on his own huge compound is, well, part of willy's dream audience.

    All part OF TD's rich tapestry, eh.

    If you're not amused by it then don't read it.

    Would boarding staff receive weekly Tbones to Braai?

    Do boarding staff fly Business?

    Oh I enjoy many threads on TD and this is one. They offer some good laughs.

    I have no idea what DW does for a career other than what is posted here. I just thought it odd that he was referenced as a janitor and just thought this was to take the piss on him.

    ^^Apologies, Stumpy.

    That last line wasn't really aimed at you.

    Which of course leaves him free to sling shit at other posters regarding their careers, for decades, without meaningful retaliation.

    None of it apparently raising nidhogg's hackles.

    But some of us have worked this one out.

    oh come on, have I ever, even the once slung shit at you and your career? Sure, chancer TEFLRs in general. But not you. Many a time I’ve posted that I think your one of the good ones. But most TEFLRs are fake af. Jesus I knew a few when I worked in Bangkok, plumbers that got their certificate in khao San road, DJ prat and his running from restaurants to avoid the bill, Smeg and all his bizarre nonsense. The peados, drunks and druggies regularly in the news and the like. You’d be as mad as sausages claiming Pattaya is a world class family destination to deny the TEFLr industry is ripe with that lot.

    never once have I suggested you are one of them. Not once.


    None of it apparently raising nidhogg's hackles.
    I respect doctors and there hard work. The respect must be mutual. I also think he’s not overly sensitive and worried about what I think about chancing TEFLrs.



    But some of us have worked this one out.

    worked out what? That I’m a boarding supervisor on a free meals and accommodation ticket? So what if I am?
