My Thai landlord was a dream and a pure pleasure to deal with.. I got back my security deposit in cash
without any difficulty and she couldn't have been better.. :headbang:
Okay, the Thai (money) boys do seem to have the lost mobile phone syndrome and somehow don't lose your
tel. #.
Once a Thai guy whom I bought a mobile for, told me he lost it.. When we when to the same mobile
phone vendor and I pointed to the same model, he told me he wanted one with bells and whistles..
I declined his suggestion and we didn't purchase a new phone.. I was suspicious and called him on
his lost phone and he answered.. He later claimed he had taken the SIM card out but only a love-sick
fool would have believed his lame excuse..
A while later he 'borrowed' a couple of thousand baht and needless
to say it turned out to be his going away gift, even thou he didn't quite see it that way..
