If it was to make me happy, mission accomplished! 😊

Somewhere in Thailand, 20 years ago. (Film camera, so)

I haven't lost my bearings...

A little trip to the market (not very original, my thoughts exactly...)

Somewhere in Thailand, 20 years ago. (Film camera, so analog)

Nice!

Not as old, maybe 15 years. The "paï thieo" weekends

Hi there,

You’re mistaken about the thread for posting photos. The correct one is here: https://voyageforum.com/forum/souvenirs-thailande-d10035489/

As mentioned at the start, I created a new thread to post my more recent photos. The idea was to keep the recent ones separate from the existing thread, which is specifically for older photos.

The photos in both posts are memories... And the other post isn’t specifically about antiques.

Your post says:

I’ll be posting some less old images here from time to time—let’s say more or less recent.

“More or less recent” is pretty vague...😉

For me, this is old.

What years are the photos you’re looking for from?

Post-Covid?

Making people happy—isn’t that one of the ideas behind this forum? __

When I wrote "I’m offering" instead of "I’m proposing to you," it was really just for my photos. It was meant to temporarily replace my travel journals, saving me from long writing sessions. A kind of big-picture view, image by image, in my own style. Okay, I didn’t say anything when others posted theirs, but I should’ve thought of it and created an extra thread for community contributions. No big deal, it’s fine—maybe it’ll even work better for those browsing for fun.

Well, you can just ask the mods to delete this topic and repost your thread in the travel journal section. 🙂

A travel journal can just be photos! :)

After that, you wrote this isn’t a travel journal in the intro...🤪😄

When I wrote "I suggest"

Hi there,

I know your unwavering optimism as a "forum regular," and I truly respect that...

Unfortunately, it’s clear that in almost every thread, people post without reading others’ messages. The same info gets repeated over and over, sometimes back-to-back, but do you think it bothers even one person?

The person who just gave you advice doesn’t even care that they could delete their post within 2 hours.

This isn’t an isolated case...😕

Even if it existed before the forum went on hiatus, it seems much worse since it came back.

Best regards,

Partirdeloin

A travel journal can be just photos!

I’d just call it a photo album, plain and simple 😛

I'm sorry, I didn't realize this post was only about YOUR photos!! I won't do it again :)

I posted my photos last night, while the other contributors did so much earlier. So now it’s impossible for us to delete our messages so only jojoone1’s remain, now that the topic’s been clarified.

Afterwards, if a mod swings by, they can clean things up and leave only jojoone1’s photos and the messages without photos or links to photos posted by others.🙂

Ladies and gentlemen (I’m addressing everyone concerned), I’m sure you all enjoyed posting those photos, and I don’t think anyone will see a major issue with it. Don’t worry about it at all. I’m sure more than a few people will be happy to see all these images—ones we rarely or never get to see on other forums. If one day we hit the limit because several of us are adding great shots, I think VF won’t mind opening a new thread.

Meanwhile, business is back in the Kingdom of Siam. Tourists are returning, new expats too, it seems, and in some areas, they’re clearing brush, excavating, and digging—even as just a few steps away, many ongoing projects remain stalled, neglected, or abandoned. All with the prospect of new local millionaires who’ll spend big to import their Mercedes or Porsche from abroad. And just as many bankruptcies because the project won’t have lived up to expectations.
