Vegemite

I have been waiting for someone to ask this question.
My wife is from Issan 2 hours or so east of Khon Kean and a bit south. Village people.
Her family all have good morals and are 100% decent people. None have ever worked in the sex industry and there are 12 brothers and sisters.
We live in New Zealand and get constant requests from my wifes friends to find a decent man for them.
These are good ladies from good families usually not rich but often with good jobs and not desperate.
For a while I was putting them on dateing sites but finding a decent man is harder than I thought.
There were all sorts of strange people crawling out from under their rocks.
Plenty of shifty con men as well trying to tie them into contracts that didnt exist. Nasty stuff!
The OP could easily be one of them.
It got to the point where I pretty much gave up trying.
It is a shame because I know there are some really good blokes out there but finding them is very hard.
Decent doesn't even have to be rich.

PS:  I didn't know what UTH was either. 45 years or not.

Thanks for the info.
I prefer to fly closer to the ground so to speak. I enjoy apartments ect that are a little more basic and dont need any service however we did stay at one " hotel " in the middle of town called Burapa or something like that, that was as bad as it gets. I was so tired from travel that I could have slept on the road so it did for the night.
I know Rayong Brew but have never been there.Does it sell farang food?
I like Rayong and it has a lot going for it, but as I spend quite a bit of my time there alone, I find it hard going.
None of the signs are in english and there are no taxis.
Motorbike taxis are fine but do any of them speak english?
I get given a little motorbike when I am there but I stick to the back roads as the main road scares the sh0t out of me.
It looks like we will be there again in October so any info is a great help.
Thanks.

Thanks for your advice Itsala.
Do you think that Had Yai is a better bet and if so what can we axpect there?
Food wise I mean and do you know of any user friendly hotels.
Also how far is it to Song Khla from there if we drove?

Hi there,
we were in Hua Hin in 2010 and stayed at The Fat Cat guesthouse.You can Google.
Although the rooms were small we had great views out over the fishing wharf and gulf.
It was beautiful at night.
The owner is a nice enough man from Europe somewhere, cant quite remember where.
It is not a b & b but they do basic beakfasts that are not bad.
Next to the guesthouse is/was a British pub that was open early and did great breakfasts. 5 stars from me.
And good coffee.
It had a nice open air feel and was not busy. Excellent roast potato, baked beans and bacon.
The owners were thinking about moving to BKK so not sure if it is still there or as good.
The Fat Cat is worth a look and the prices are very reasonable and it is a short walk to anything in down town Hua Hin.
Hope this helps.

Does anyone know if there is an air service to Roi Et? There was talk of a new one on VT last year.
