Rose wasn't angry or even complaining but I'd have been furious if someone I'd helped did that to me. I just asked where the other woman was and Rose said she now had her own shop around the corner. She was just kind of philosophical about human nature rather than mad at the woman. As for getting so...

I go to see Rose the masseuse every month & I've been going there for about 2 years. On my last visit she told me a sorry tale. She took in and trained a lady she met (an ex teacher who'd fallen upon hard times) who was destitute. She bought her clothes and fed her and, when she was competent enough...

Thank you very much for your reply. Unfortunately it's out of my price range.

On second thoughts the 2 bedroom house would suit me better. Is it still available?

Hello I'm looking for an unfurnished apartment or small house to rent long term within 10 mins of the city center. I'm a single mature aged guy, quiet, clean living and a good tenant who always pays his rent on time. I like to cook so an indoor or outdoor kitchen is a must. I have 2 excellent refere...

Hello I'm looking for a small house to rent, preferably unfurnished or with a spare room where I can store my existing furniture, tools & personal effects. I'm looking for something long term and within 10 mins of the city center. I'm a single mature aged guy, quiet, clean living and a good tenant w...

I have my own furniture. Would you rent the house unfurnished

Thank you

Hi everybody I'm looking for an apartment or house to rent preferably unfurnished or with a spare room where I can store my existing furniture, tools & personal effects.

That was unkind of you Morti. In the title of Peter's post it says the musicians can play legally. In the body of his text he writes that it's 100% legal and then, based on absolutely nothing but your thoughts alone - or lack thereof - you write that it must be illegal. You didn't even contact Peter...

Guys

Maybe it's not a good idea write about your illegal playing experiences in this forum. You can implicate yourself and the bar owner whose place you played at and it could come back to bite both of you on the butt way down the track.

Just been back to Rose for my monthly maintenance and saw she's put 2 massage beds in the biggest room. She said she's getting an increasing number of Thai wives that want to be massaged at the same time as their husbands. I guess this way the wives can see there's no hanky panky going on and be mas...

I thought this was funny.

I found this on Rose's massage blog.

ABSOLUTELY NO S.X
And anyone who tries it on will be cheerfully beaten to a pulp.

Does anybody know anything about a new restaurant called Tha Naam that's supposed to be on the Sakhon Nakhon road not far from Big C? I'm told it's near a lake but I've been up and down that road and can't see a sign for it or a lake. I met a couple in another restaurant who'd been there and said it...

I admire you guys who are learning to read and write Thai, it's way beyond the capacity of my tiny brain.

I'm learning to speak it through http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJNrs4z_Pn0 on YouTube where there are 30 or more excellent lessons that somebody paid for and then made them public.

Does anybody out there play music that’s not mainstream country, blues, rock or 60s – 80s pop? Can anybody play classical, fusion, European music, jazz, bossa nova, ballads, crossover, reggae, Latin, World music, folk music? Doesn’t matter what instrument. Maybe you’re into something like Cajun, Af...

Yes, a very good story Silverfox. I'm happy for you. I eventually found this lady (Rose) after trying just about all the massage practitioners in Udon to relieve the pain in my back. She told me at the outset that she could never totally cure me but told me how to do exercises to strengthen the musc...

Does anyone know why most chickens here are of the ling legged skinny type rather than the plumb, big breasted ones we have in the West? When I see them at the market there doesn’t seem to be a lot of meat on them but maybe they taste better?

I've had my last trip to both of the above stores. Today I went to the opening of the new hardware store on the Ring road. What an eye opener. They have more of everything that Global or Home Pro have and more besides. And there were farang employees who came up and asked if they could help me in En...

Here's Stevie Wonder playing jazz harmonica with Toots Theilmans. 9UNp4C_K0iE Stevie Wonder comes in at about half way through the performance. Stevie once made a jazz harmonica album under the name of Eivets Rednow which is Stevie Wonder spelled backwards. He was worried that making a jazz harmonic...
