radioman Posted October 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Yes, that could be an issue though I suspect some intense mental process involved in some game play might drain you sufficiently to fall asleep. I'm often more tired after spending a day teaching than a regular day doing more physical work. Like you beyond a few PC games I've not been a consoler. The alternative here is to shack up with a Filippina energiser bunny and spend all my time in bed Might be fine at first but then... Then of course there is usually less grief trying a new game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khunsanuk Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Hi, "Then of course there is usually less grief trying a new game" Right, my PS3 and PS4 are happily sharing my bedroom together. No jealousy at all Sanuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Yeah tell me about it No need to be particularly productive, fairly easy gig here just collecting the cash, until something falls over that is. Figure when I'm done here I should be able to either bring it home or sell it for about half what I pay, either way it's okay. Personally I find that a Games Console in the Middle East pays for itself, if it allows one to not go sand crazy and keep taking the money then it has paid for itself within a couple of days, I have lost count of the number of consoles I have purchased and left behind over the years.

Yeah that's a good point, though I've not really suffered being here. I get out to BKK pretty much every six weeks for a 10 day break or so which helps, then there are the Chinese or Filippina overnight cleaners to take care of things and the odd place to grab a beer or so outside and connect with the world a bit so not too bad.

Mekong Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Every 6 weeks Luxury. Last time I was in Qatar about 5 years ago I worked 8 weeks then 16 days PAID Leave. Not much vacation in VN I have only been back twice in just over 12 months but the wife is in VN with me, it is cheaper to keep a Thai in rural VN than having her running loose in Bangkok. Actually this week the wife is in VN and I am in South Korea for a few days, VN on Thursday and back in BKK on Saturday for a couple of weeks.

radioman Posted October 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Sounds like a sweet enough deal. I found out I can get a visit visa for the TG so may bring her here for a month. I know I'll have to jump through some hoops with a hotel reservation and the like but the upside would be pretty good. Would be another good reason to have a console to keep her quiet during the day.
