My adventures and life in amazing Thailand. With over 20 years living here, I can show you what it's like to live in this wonderful country, give you news updates on important events and even teach you some Thai. Welcome aboard.👍🙏
Hey James, I think these tiny houses could also be used as a nucleus to a minimal living design i.e. Install one under a large covered area with outdoor kitchen and entertainment area etc. Also have a great trip back to the UK with Annie 🙂
Hi James, many thanks for this video, options for those needing a granny flat or those with land in a nice place they want to visit for a few days a year. Have a great and safe trip back to UK. Not sure if you will be there for the general election or not, but the politicians look in chaos (maybe not as bad as Thai politics).
thanks for sharing very interesting, would be great on our farm with septic tank and solar panels, thanks for the leaning wall of tak update but i miss bob the bush how is he 55 55
The Brits imported a bunch of Canadian-made wooden 'Prefab' houses just after WWII to combat the housing shortage after German bombing. I remember seeing some in East London during the 1960/70s. Probably all rotted now. The Thai insects will have yours for lunch if not properly treated.
I am definitely with you on the ‘bum gun’ invention. When I returned to the UK it was like medieval Britain. Tried a newfangled Japanese loo and didn’t get on with it. Prefer to trust my own aim.
In the UK, I have a wet, Asian-style bathroom with a very-long shower hose attached by a Jubilee clip onto the hot, washbasin tap. Use it to clean the toilet bowl and myself (squatting) ... no bum-gun required. Bum-gun pressures are always set too high anyway ... probably gave mum too much of a thrill to bear.
Very entertaining and informative as always James. Down on the islands they are selling these style houses as the Western speculators are going high density per rai they are also selling converted containers. To me they look like council projects we have back home and are ruining what was a tropical paradise. Safe journey you and Annie and the portable bum gun. Please say a big hi to your lovely mum and enjoy your time with her you lucky man.
It would be useful if you have enough land and your current house doesn't have enough room for visiting family guests. But if you're building a new house on your land, you're better off just increasing the budget on the main house and building with more rooms.
James I had a 43 sqm house 1 bed, 1 bath with kitchen including plumbing, electrical and septic tank, built near Phrom Phiriam for 500k baht...much like that 399k one... but i had columns sunk into the soil about 5 meters deep
Thanks for the interesting content Mr James! Tiny houses gained popularity here in USA more than a decade ago. The major expense lies in purchasing or leasing real estate for the placement of the tiny house, along with the provision of water, electric and sewer - a sewer system alone built to code could cost more than the tiny house. It's not uncommon to see rates of >500USD per month to park an RV in an a designated RV park. RVs here are larger than a tiny house and obviously mobile, but decent ones in only fair used condition can go for >30K USD. The 420,000 USD median home price (Q4 2023) in USA has driven up the cost of all housing alternatives - apartments, RVs, tiny homes, houseboats and associated costs. Greed thrives in the USA!
Looks aok for guests and people passing through .as you say the finish is spot on .

That is friggin brilliant..... You can prebuild a pool/water area and design all the walkways and etc. and when that is ready then you can plant 5 of those houses around and have a really special build at the fraction of the cost of building everything from the bottom up o.O
Leave the sex aid at home and just get a small bucket thingy and plastic mug at your mum's.................Removing bum guns is sacrilege and mum needs a serious talking too.!!!
I am absolutely not interested in the UK but please do a few videos at least. I remember your mom as a very lovely lady. It would be nice to catch up. Greetings...🙋♂
