That's pretty sure how the OP lives, I believe.

Nonetheless, at least he's having fun.

Planning a 3 week trip to Thailand soon.

Any good info on getting a tailored suit from BKK whilst I'm there?

Thinking I can pick up a decent one whilst I'm there but don't want to get ripped off.

If you go to a good place, you can get a tailored made suit to fit for the same price as a normal off the self suit in the UK

My friends got some shirts @ Narin's on sukhumvit 11. Although the street is heavily geared towards tourists, they have both been living here longer then me and recommended it. They told me there were not that cheap, but very good quality.

saunas not even once son.

I went there because I backpacked there last year and really enjoyed it. The other reasons are also on my blog in the first two posts.
