Neither would any other Thai if you don't like traditional festivals that have been going on for years and years here in Thailand then bugger off.

We was recommended a builder from a large builders merchants on Sukamvit road. He turned out to be the lowest of low scum bag piece of crap I have ever had the misfortune to come across.

Excuses why the work was taking so long so unbelievably outrageous that you almost had to laugh when being told them. One time he said the workers had gone back to the village and he had to go back there to "catch them all" and put them in the back of the truck but wasn't easy because they would jump out again, hahahah this guy was a real comedian.

After 5 months I had enough of it, I wanted it finished and for him to f-k right off out my life so we called for a meeting and told him we had some very good news. We said my Thai wife had just inherited a rai of land in central Pattaya and wanted to build a hotel on the land and could he arrange for this to be built for us, we have 3 million baht for the job and was that enough?

He fell for it hook line and sinker, all work was completed on our house, the extension, windows, tiles throughout, beautiful teak doors it really looked the nuts when done.

It gave me the utmost pleasure to pay him the final payment and tell him we would "be in touch" about the hotel being built and off he went with a big greedy smile, hahaha.

I agree mate I don't expect or want the boss of a restaurant to juggle balls and entertain me I go to the circus for that. As long as the grub is good the place is very clean which it is there I go back. By the way the staff in there are always friendly.

edit: spelling

I walked into a motorcycle shop to buy some oil for my bike last week in one of them shack type places you see in some sois. I walked in and guy shouts falang! Everyone stops working and all eyes are on me. I picked a small container of oil from the shelf looked at the price and handed over 500 baht. Guy gives me change and 100 baht short. I ask him neung roy khrap and he hands me a 100 baht note grinning like a Cheshire cat, unbelievable.

Whatever way you want to spell it or pronounce it farang or falang it means money alert.

There is so much more to Thailand then Pattaya but f'me its boring everywhere else.
