Really? So you can understand why I despise the landlord class.

@Jacqui ********

"Strong words" bother you? Have you seen the amount of homeless and struggling in the UK because of parasitic landlords pushing rents to the limit to enrich the non-productive in society such as yourself.

Leave the landlording to Thais. Be a parasite in your own country.

Have a look at the charts on the internet. Gets hazy but so does the whole region.

Give me a shout any time. Just sat down for a beer. Been a week chasing an underground piping leak in the pools. Shifted a lot of dirt! Good luck with it all.

@Jim ******

About as far north as you can get. And about as far from the sea so I have swimming pools as a small business (or my wife has). Very laid back with few tourists and as near to a zero crime rates as you get, including any rip off pricing, always local prices. Lovely mountains and best climate in the country. I'm in Chiang Kham, Phayao province. 1 hour from Phayao town, 1.5 from Chiang Rai and 3-4 from Chiang Rai. Border crossing to Laos is close by for a leisurely cruise down the Mekong.

Phayao area is spot on.

@Ken ******

Talking to Americans is often like talking to a cabbage.

@Tom ********

US political corruption and wars are intertwined dude. Why do you think they have so many?

@Tom ********
