I'd rather live in Doncaster.

Seriously.

Clearly you have never lived in Doncaster then.

Does she have the rest of the day free after she's finished making all the beds?

It's in Thailand, a little further south than Doncaster and she won't even be making her own bed.

I do live in Doncaster. My brother has just got a new job in the Bahamas, they'll be putting him up here for the first few weeks till he can rent a villa.

He's still a ginger though.

Yeah, I bet you can't get decent gravy for your chips in Thailand, bad enough down south.

I'd rather not live than live in Doncaster.

Did she buy it? There'll be a hell of a lot of depreciation when the waves are lapping at her front door in one or two decades' time.

Don't think I'd choose Doncaster over that, but I wouldn't want to live there either.

I reckon you'd be bored stupid after what 2-3 days?

Only 12 sunbeds on the beach. They'll be full of German towels by 7am.....

From what I gather, while you live there you can bike, swim, run, eat and get online. They have bars too. So unless you can't live without office work or shopping, I think you should be able to manage just fine.

Considered moving to the Caribbean. Once I realised the downgrade in lifestyle, and I couldnt afford to come back without some serious money being stored/made in the UK I gave up.

There more to life than some sun and a beach. Holiday vs real life is often vastly different.

It looks awfully warm and the food is probably foreign.

No but seriously, what kind of work is there in Koh Samui (apart from the obvious)?

that's a good point Dr M and I bet moaning about the weather is much harder than here too
