Connection is pretty solid in Pattaya. Have you ever been there? If not maybe you should reconsider. Great for shagging week ends but living there is another story.

Hey ofdabead, our mutual friend has mentioned a "hooker from hell" story several times and still hasn't told me about it. What happened?

Ifear, I would just take the whey protein with you instead of worrying about tracking some down. To amend my previous "legal drugs in Thailand" post, you can get gear with absolutely no problem if that's what you're into.

Do you know if they have the old prohormones stashed away? I was about to do my first cycle of m1t here.

Standby for the ex-GF from hell story soon.

Puk's lost her absolute mind and I'm physically and mentally prepping myself to either be attacked by a knife weilding mental woman or a herd of hired ya ba junkies.

I think my odds of survival are
90/10 against knife weilding woman
and 50/50 against the ya ba herd

Now that read the whole thread iam sure no one mentioned the non immi "O" Visa/multiple entry wich allows you stay 1 year up to 15 months if you do a short visa run every 90 days. I get that from the thai embassy in stuttgart(ger) if i can show a bank statement that i own 5K€ + on my bank account.

Embassies in many European countries aren't so strict about the visa rules (although that may be changing). I got my one year non-immigrant type "O" visa just by walking into the embassy and saying 'Hi! I'd like to play poker in Bangkok for a year' without any paperwork required.

Lol, you went back to that place? He just told me the story and it's no big deal since it was his last night in bkk. It would have been a much different story in Cambodia or something. The key to dealing with crazy Thai people is to keep saying "mai khao jai" (I don't understand) until they finally go away.
