ha ha. but we dont go out to impress the bar girls or freelancers, which is where everyone else on this board seems to differ from us. I have lots of thai friends, from university and through contacts, who are not *****s, but are educated decent people. And these are the type of girls that i like to get dressed up for
About 90% of my thai friends have a lot more money than me! Many related to the royal family...rich bastards! But then its not hard, considering the extent of the size of the royal family!
And as for the fake Armani, i prefer to bring my REAL clothes from uk, than to buy clothes that will fall apart in 2 days! ha ha.
As for talking thai, i think my thai is quite good, and i am currently learning how to write. Because my thai friends have such good english, they can teach me proper thai as opposed to the bar girls who will teach you "sawat-di ......mai pen rai.......kop khun..." nope, i doubt there is anymore! ha ha.
No offence intended...just some polite banter back! ha ha.
I think we both have a great love of thailand......just for different reasons possibly!
