How can you look at someone like this...i can't picture it, please explain how they look at you with them thinking you are a tourist... ....is there differant looks you can give to ex-pats also....anyone notice this before..? and what are to two differant ways of looking at tourists and ex-pats.

Thanks.

You know BM the "lionel Blair stare" it costs nothing to acknowledge a smile from a stranger does it?? So the look that to me they think i must be a tourist so not worth returning the smile, or "The Mall is Mine!!!" or do you realise i just missed some cute little 15 year olds bum because you just distracted me by smiling at me!!!! or i live here i dont smile at tourists, which is what i assume you are!!! getting the picture???

or in english we both understand. i make eye contact smile and acknowledge them, pretty normal stuff for me any way... The look i get is "what are YOU looking at?" Not a returned smile or an acknowledgement of my courtesy!!!

Sounds like Harold, I could be wrong though, I'll sit and wait for a couple of pensioners to post on this thread:

Today we were mostly gawping at teenage girls in the Compleck, scoff, scoff, dribble, dribble.

Hang on, is Nosferatu in Udon at the moment?

What did I do today? Sat in a traffic jam in Farnham, in the pouring rain, waiting for the World to get its act together.

Today, a bit different. Physiotherapy, garage to get car fixed, then Heathrow to pick up the latest family arrivals (I do more airport trips than most PAID Taxi drivers). Now this evening taxi service for daughter., and help with the sons homework. And i am the one who is supposed to be a gentleman of leisure - yeah, 30 minutes if i am lucky!

[old-timer]

Just spent the last 24 hours getting back to UT from the banana republic so I can make the night market meeting tomorrow........ , now after reading another thread I'm off to day and night to meet an intelligent fiery female bar owner for the first time - I hope she likes old-timers.....

today and for every day this week i have had a need to go to the complex for one reason or another, one day to fix new computer, another the bank etc etc, however every time i have gone in there i noticed 2 old geezers about 75 and farang. Seen them around a lot always smile at them and they just look at me like im a tourist!!! Anyway i noticed the both of them every time ive been this week so far have been purely leching at girls always stood outside KFc area ogling at the students!!! its embarrassing Boys if you should read this thread!!! youre like 2 dirty old men letching at every girl you see...If you didnt realise? believe me its really noticeable to all!!! So from now on i am calling them the complex pervs....

These are the two blokes who were mentioned in an "embarrasing behaviour by farangs" thread a few weeks back.
They stand around the Boots and KFC area leching at the young girls.....embarrasing.
One of the guys is white haired and has his shirt undone almost to his navel ?? Fortunately I dont think they are Brits....quite possibly Germans.
Anyway,back on topic.....what did I do today.....took the son to school at 8am,fed the cats,vacuumed downstairs,went with the missus to Tesco Lotus,then off to Index,now on the internet,out for a jog later which will set me up nicely for a few beers tonite

[PAUL STAKER]

Well today I chatted for a while to my lady friend in udorn thanee on msn then i went shopping for some supplies and stopped off at the pastors' house on the way back and we discussed what we can do to improve our community.

Praise Jesus and have a great day there.

May God bless you all.

[beer monkey]

Something just as exciting for me today......Little ones first day back at pre-school, after summer holidays he was excited...i love the look on his face when he gets in there, also when it time to come home you can take a peek through the curtain over the door and see him clapping and waving his arms in time to the sing song at the end of each session.....he has a great time, and there is no better feeling for me seeing him be himself and having fun and growing.

I suppose this is a little off topic. But, I often wondered why an old gezzer would marry a girl 30 years his younger and start a family for the second time. (Besides the obvious boost to the ego.) Then, I read BM's post about his son. You can see the pride BM has for him. Being able to be there and watch the kid grow though the age of discovery has to be exciting. It is probably something you didn't get to do the first time around because of being to busy trying to earn a living and not having time to have a life. I admire all of you starting a family and being able to be there to help shape the lives of your kids. =D> =D> =D>



Just another day in paradise. :-"

[aznyron]

farang 1 I agree with your post except for one minor detail we may not live long enough to see him/her graduate from school it a 20 year commitment in my case I would be over 90 so if your in your early fifties
go for it the rewards are wonderful

[cali4995]

i'm trying to reach 900 posts and then i'm officially retiring from posting. wish me well

[polehawk]

Ah, c'mon Cali. Once you hit 1000 you get Isaan Airways and then the sky's the limit.

Why would you want to retire, anyway? No one will agree with everything you post but nobody really takes it personally (I hope).

I suppose a shame for some of us who have had the snip,just another day firing blanks.

[aznyron]

Cali 56 more & I hit 5K but who counting Pompui it is my understanding they can do a reversal on that
what the success rate is you will have to search google I should get a sperm count to see if I am shooting blanks if so the wife can retire the pills even at my age that because I do not drink smoke and do 100 crunches every morning and take vitamins and some A/H driving with out lights on at night almost wiped me out I wish it was the other way were I hit him & killed him

There could be several reasons really,especially if the wife wants to be a mother!Having a child ,to many people ,''bonds'' the marriage.

Americans on Social Security receive extra money for each child and some wifes feel more ''security'',which is one of the most basic reasons for her being in the relationship.Also many men enjoy being fathers ,even at advanced ages.Not everyone has the same values,nor does everyone believe that the father is needed to see a child reach adulthood as long as a good foundation has been put in place!

My stepdaughter has been with me almost 10 years and has been a joy to father.I would have had other children ,but I have been ''fixed''for 30 years and the wife was not keen on adoption,so we have a dog for 5 years and now cats!The dog is a joy and my ''baby''!!!

[aznyron]

Stan that a good topic to chat about at the next N/M get together or when I stop by your house some interesting notes to be shared on getting payments for children when living out side the USA

[wazza]

We found the deceased person who went missing after a local search and rescue excercise went tits up. 3 days after they dropped him in the Caspian Sea and the helicopter failed to find him.

3 all up were dropped in and we found the 2nd and 3rd patients.

Not a good day actually

[Fawn]

Crikey.

[beer monkey]
