Another newbie to the forum & trying to be polite

Just another Yank who has spent enough time working with Brits to appreciate, not understand, your humor. (why is it that everywhere I have ever been that the British are always made fun of?) From So. Calif area and looking to spend much more time in Thailand within a few more years. I have been to LOS 3 times for about 3 weeks each and have become addicted. At 54 I have traveled most of central America as far down as Panama, salt water fishing & sailing are my main hobbies, but have never enjoyed anything quite like Thailand. As I have 1 last daughter who's 17, (3 girls total & 9 g kids to date) to finish school it will be a couple of years before I can start to put down roots in Thailand. Reading Dodger's 1,000th post is so informative that even my mom, 74 now, is interested in coming over next year with me just to see what its like! Thanks Nikie and the BM's for a great site and I will be sure to visit the MTB on my next visit. Cruizenclyde

Currently I'm located southeast of Orange County in North County Riverside (Norco)
Just a few times mainly for fishing on the pacific coast. Yes its very nice there and the people are quite friendly. The only drawback is that the $$ are almost the same as the states. The fishing there is awsome during the fall season - 200 lbs plus tuna, swordfish and marlin etc. and the weather is mild due to the pacific ocean influnce. Also if you surf its one of the best of the world. Though my next trip that way will be Nicaragua as I have only been there once briefly and was impressed by the cost and services and fishing etc. The ladies were VERY pricey in Costa Rica and the Thai GF expierence was totally missing at least on my extended trips there. I had a much better time in Honduras for that. Please feel free to PM me if you would like more info. Cya

The Brits I have worked with have said my problem was my Welsh heritage. Diet coke will rot you guts out and leave you with nothing to enjoy real drinking!! Thanks for the welcome. Cya
