Editors: Why do I receive the newsletter irregularly/are there no longer new posts on Thailandblog every day?
Those who have been visiting Thailandblog for years and/or receive our newsletter are used to new articles being posted daily and the newsletter being sent daily. This has been irregular for several months. Maybe you want to know what's going on?
Anyway, nothing exciting. It only has to do with the available time. Filling Thailandblog daily takes a lot of time. In addition to a normal working day, Thailandblog also requires the necessary attention from me. In recent years I have done that with a lot of love and dedication, and I will continue to do so in the coming period. But unfortunately I can no longer promise a daily frequency.
One week it will work and the next week it won't. That depends on simple things, such as available time, sufficient material to place and whether there are other more urgent matters. For example, I have had to put a lot of time into my studies and a subsequent exam in the past period.
So if it works, you will receive Thailandblog 7 days a week. Unfortunately, if I don't have enough time, that will be maybe 6, 5 or maybe 4 times a week.
So you don't have to worry that you will no longer receive newsletters. To find out whether new articles have been published, it is best to check the website. You can on your computer, laptop, iPad or phone, just www.thailandblog.nl type in and you will see all new articles (if there are any).
no problem am happy with every message keep it up
That's totally understandable, Peter. Although I do check every day (I have “Thailandblog” on my desktop and it's just a mouse click away) I had already gotten used to receiving new messages once every two days and that's no problem at all.
In addition to your work and (temporarily) a study, followed by an exam, you do this "on the side". And that commands respect!
Doesn't the saying apply here too: “The work comes before the girl”?
Without your regular work and therefore with only Thailand blog, you fall back on the food bank and no one can expect that from you.
In addition to reader contributions and questions, Thailandblog also contains many editorial contributions and they do not come about "just like that".
Keep it up I would say!
Quite right, we are not dying because there are fewer thailand blogs, your own self comes first
Love work old paper but I love what you are doing and hope the blog will be around for a long time, enjoy reading it. A lot of work and it is appreciated by the readers good luck with the study and my thanks for all the reading pleasure. Jan.
Good luck with your studies! Been in Bangkok for one month now and start the day reading the blog. Very happy with your commitment. Thanks, thanks, thanks
Very logical and clear. We are pleased that you put so much time into this work. Cheers and thanks.
I hope your exam goes well or has passed.
Thanks again.
Much respect to you.
Many people look forward to what you have to say almost every day with many useful contributions, stories and much more.
Always worth it.
Thank you
Quite rightly Peter.
I'm happy with the posts out there.
No problem if this is not possible every day.
Thank you
Of course no problem. I am very happy with your blog. Please read it. Good luck with exam and study. And thank you for your effort and work on the blog. Greetings Aad
Thank you Adam and others as well. Exam has now been successfully completed.
Your studies come first
Every message I get I say thank you anyway
In any case, I have already had a lot of support here that I have already used, thanks again for all the support
Such a professional looking blog
You would think that there would be quite a team behind it, but if I understand correctly, the whole thing is ultimately kept in the air by one person who does it in addition to his normal job. As for the various types of articles aided by the regular input of a few individuals, who contribute their extensive knowledge and experience.
All in all a source from which I have been getting useful and reliable information for years.
Hopefully it will stay that way for a very long time.
Many thanks and good luck.
And congratulations on passing the exam.
Dear Peter,
That makes sense, you put so much time into it.
It's a fantastic blog by the way, with very useful contributions from Ronny, Maarten, Rob V, Lung Addie, Erik Kuypers and if I've forgotten anyone, I'm sorry in advance.

Yes I forgot Lammert, hahaha
Glad to hear that the exam was successfully completed Peter. It takes quite a bit to professionally post the various bits of yourself and the various regular and infrequent or one-off writers all by yourself. Don't get overwrought and know when to rest. An update of the site every day at fixed times is nice where possible, but subordinate to those kinds of things with priority.
I totally agree with the comments. This volunteer work takes a lot of time and sometimes it doesn't work out; very understandable! I do hope you continue because TB, even if it is not ffrequent. In particular, tax information (Lammert) and visa issues (Ronny) and other topics, such as wills/inheritance, are important to many and luckily you don't underestimate that!
I like (almost) every update. Whether that be eight a day or three a week. A little less news every now and then also saves me time 😉
