I think that the Thai practice of looking after your ageing family in the village, is wonderful.
But, I have worked really hard for every penny I have and I am not about to send it in 'Shed loads' to peeps I hardly know. They will often bleed Farangs dry. Asking for more and more money for all sorts of things......
eg My best Pal here, no it's not Froggy, has spent SO much on his wife's family, over the past few years, that he cannot now pay for the expensive surgical operation he so badly needs!
It will be the death of him sadly........
One final point Froggy boy, we are PAYING guests. Capish?
