You buy me something, tilak?

[Paddy]

I’m about to break the butterflying habits of a lifetime and go to Pattaya to spend a whole week with a lovely TG I met there last time.

She tells me she’s packed in her job at the gogo, so I ‘no need pay bar’. And she also says I can ‘save money, no pay hotel, stay my loom’. She’s very independent and lives on her own in quite a big room that she keeps really nice, with lots of plants and funny little knick knacks in it. Last time I was there I bought her a couple more plants, one of those wooden elephants and a pair of curtains at the Friday market. I think it cost about 1000 baht all in. She was so chuffed, she must have opened and closed the curtains 100 times in the hour after she put them up. Even so, I said no, that’s OK, we’ll stay in a nice hotel.

All the time we’ve been in touch, she’s never asked me for a thing – and with TG’s, you can’t help feeling just a tiny bit suspicious about that. The longer they go without hitting you up for something, the more you start thinking that when it does come, it’s going to be a monster.

So finally, a few days ago, when she sends an email saying ‘you remember last time you promised you would buy me something?’ I get that uh-oh here we go feeling. I don’t remember saying that I’d buy her anything in particular, but I know I say a lot of things when I’m pissed that I instantly forget. So I write straight back and ask her what it was that I promised. I’m thinking maybe a necklace or something like that. But she writes again – ‘sorry, I hope you not angry but you promised to buy me A FRIDGE!!!!

I don’t know why it made me laugh so much, but it did, and I’ve told her OK – but only a little one, mind. So on this tour, as well as the usual drinking, eating and ****ing, it looks like I’ll be spending at least one afternoon mooching around the Pattaya equivalent of Dixons!

Heard of a similiar story on Stickman......well at least you can have a cold lager after a hot session

One of my buddies got caught on an isaan run.. He also had to buy them a fridge...

Only about 4 / 5 k baht for a mid size cheap one..

Big C near soi 2 - Fridges a plenty up there

[Chiggerz]

Maybe this is the new craze in thailand... instead of the BG's comparing the weight of their gold, they will compare the size of their fridges

[Mav]

Yes l think this will become the new craze......until 2010, then they bg's will ask us to buy them one of those portabile ATM's so then they do not have to walk all the way down to the Bank in the heat to collect their sponsorship baht.

[urtheman]

Yes I have experience buying fridge's here.

I once hired some girls to work in my restaurant and the restaurant provided housing but not the fridge. The girls were so cute and were a great addition to the staff so I went and bought a fridge at the cheapest place here in Phuket, it's called "Supercheap" and it's a huge store with no air con thats why it's called "Supercheap" it cost 3,500. for a medium size one in a beautiful blue color.

[geespot]

Paddy its only just begun, here's whats likely to be on her list

TV & DVD, with cabinet (you will have to build it)
washing machine
15 bat gold, expect to replace this every year so thats about 120,000 baht
diamond engagement ring
A beer bar
3 cows
2 buffalos
A farm, then an even bigger farm with a river running through to harvest fish
A house for mum and dad
A house for her and maybe you if you are a good boy
Land for an even bigger house later
clothes, clothes, clothes
plastic surgery
school fees for brothers and sisters
Hospital bills for the family and sick buffalos
A new mobile phone every 3 months (absolutely essential)
Digital cameras

jeez the list is endless

Hungry?

[LivinLOS]

On the Road into Phuket town from the Bypass Rd... Say coming from the Airport down the middle of the Island through Taland / Heroines monument, that one.. Just Shy of phuket town proper on the Right if heading into town..

Is cheap.. Ok for household stuff and sealed goods but 'fresh' stuff is rough.. Also it can be a MAJOR crush and its a rough old warehouse rather than what we would think of as a supermarket..

I do bulk buy shopping in Macro, getting a macro card was just filling in a form and its great for buying big (I hate shopping so will go once a month buy bulk and freezer it etc) but not the selection of Lotus or Big C..
