No, nothing to do with girlies and bars. But a complete site about Thailand, its culture, relegion and beautiful pictures.

Not to be missed, especially if you want to know more about thai culture:

The article on keun baan mai ( new house blessing ) is very interesting to me as when I visit in August, I'll be visiting my gfs. home in Trang & she is putting off her new house blessing until i get there.
Now I've read this article I'll have a better understanding of the proceedings.
I'm looking forward to it. She'll be dead chuffed when I show an understanding.
Thanks TinTin.

Glad I have been of any help!

It must not always be about the next bar and BG!

Although......that is also very important!

Great site Tintin !

Intresting to read the comparaison between conservative and modern status.

Many things on this site already said on the forum, but it resumes all.

My TGF is not a BG, she works in Phuket and her family is from Phang Nga and while reading this site, I can recognize her so much... a mix between conservative and moderns habits... touching

Thanks.

Interesting site YES ... but can any one explain to me what they mean by "Thailands Dark Side" ??

MMM I think this site should not be considered as a LB-guide!
