oh well.
Just one thing about that,if you get asked by a thai where you are from as their younger sister happens to be going abroad to be a nurse,be very carefull.Where ever you say thats exactly the country and city she will be going to!Next move is to go home with him and meet her and the rest of the family,this will be followed by free drink and food.
Now the fun starts,"do you play cards?" only for fun "oh you are very good"lets make some money"the man next door from vietnam loves to play"we can scam him"
blagh blagh blagh...
What they actualy do is get the dumb farang to play blackjack (21) for money,but like poker (with unlimited raises)so when they are sure he thinks hes won they keep raising till he has no money left (normaly about 15000 baht,or $500)Then they take him back to the hotel hes staying in to get his Atm card most of the time its the end of it,they disapear.I say he all the time because its almost always men but we have had 1 woman done,just dont play cards in thailand.

just an update on that one..
Told them thay had been done and to be carefull in future..
Next day they went to the grand palace..told it was shut(lots of scam artists stand outside there all day saying that)..but could get a free tuk tuk as they were valued guests in thailand....taken to a smaller temple..then straight to a travel agent..by the time they got back to me it had cost them 300,000 baht for 1 months trip around thailand!!!,i looked at what they had got for this...basicly it was 1 flight to chiang mai,4 train journeys 2 bus rides and their acomodation (all guesthouses no hotels ) the whole lot was worth about 30000 ! they had been stupid enough to go in and say exactly how much money they had to spend so the travel agent just found some stuff and charged them exactly what they had!
