Bleak reefs: Coral bleaching hits Mooh Koh Surin & Phi Phi Island
2long replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Divers and snorkellers have no effect at all on reefs with regard to the bleaching! Yes, clumsy or uncaring humans can damage reefs, but we don't contribute (directly) to the bleaching! -
A long (possibly AI-written) article that I read less than 10% of. Therefore I didn't see any paragraphs that mentioned 'looking after the local businesses, such as Ma & Pa shops, who mostly only take cash. I'm not a conspiracy theorist who worries about total control, however some transactions are better dealt without the tax man seeing. But my main point is, let's look after local family-run businesses as much as we can!

Pregnant Woman Alleges Sexual Assault by Thai Doctor

If this is her first pregnancy, then she could be wrong and the doctor's just doing his job. -
British Man Arrested in Bangkok Over Defamation Claims by Phuket Restaurant
2long replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
Before we all jump on this, do we know who's in the right or wrong in the first instance? I'm not talking about reviews or police. I'm on about the disagreement. In any case, Alexander should have only left one review... he's a silly boy! -
Two motorbike riders killed as loaded pick-up truck crosses road divider
2long replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
When the 'mishap' took place! What appears to be a husband and wife are both dead and the word 'mishap' is used! 10 passengers in the back of a pick up, wet roads, and we all know what that hill's like! -
There are millions of couples around the world who would love kids, but can't have them. Then there's this scum who doesn't deserve to be a parent.

Oh WOW there really are some bickering refuse-to-be-wrong old women on this thread, aren't there? Does it really matter if he was doing 100kmh or 200kmh? The poor chap is dead. Does it really matter if the Fortuner was behaving illegally or not? The poor rider is dead. We can all see the damage shows that the bike hit the Fortuner at high speed, and apparently in the left-hand lane or hard shoulder. This is not the lane for passing slower traffic, especially at high speed. RIP Mr XMax, and let's hope that this will be a lesson to save others' lives in the future. It certainly won't be a lesson to some posters who refuse to give in and have to quote each other and argue like children.

How can they possibly know he was travelling at 160? Even if the (digital) speedo was showing that, it could be for any reason. I'm confident that this figure was created from assumption due to the damage. And if the guy's front tyre had as much tread as its rear, there's no hope!

I'm not the sharpest tool in the box, and it's early Monday morning but what does "Before her death, she had shrewdly disabled the CCTV to record her final moments." mean? Because DISabling CCTV would have the opposite effect, plus who's to know SHE was the one tampering it?

I sort of knew that, and worded my heading accordingly. Solly!

I recently bought an electrical product from a leading retailer, for a price of less than 1,000B. When I got it home, it was faulty, but I can't find the receipt. I have now gone back to another branch and bought the same item again, and of course kept the receipt. And tomorrow I plan to go back to return the original item with the receipt for the second purchase. I AM NOT asking for a refund, and am happy to have two items (if they replace it), having paid twice (once for each). Part of me feels a bit guilty, but another part of me says it's ok. I have paid two times with good money, but the first item was clearly faulty (wouldn't charge). Am I a bad guy?

From what is written here, she should be given a medal. However, there are two sides to every story and we will never hear his.

Thai Airport Issues Warning to Pet Owners After Cat Incident

"Previously, the Airports of Thailand (AOT), had no explicit rules barring pets from the airport" How is this possible?! -
British tourist arrested with cocaine hidden in passport

Five posts so far and none of them Brit bashing! Maybe the usual suspects are still in bed with their long time katoeys from a Friday night on the sauce! 😉🤭- 172 replies

Foreigner Attacked in Phuket After Alleged Assault on Transwoman
2long replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
Waiting for the Brit* bashers and Katoey haters to all chip in. Probably both 'men' were equally at fault, but the men in dresses attack in packs. *before I get lambasted by you know who for mentioning a Brit because his nationality isn't reported, I know what I'm doing.... 😉🤭🥱- 129 replies

Influenza Spike in Thai Prison Infects 3,000-plus Inmates
2long replied to webfact's topic in Southern Thailand News
"The rapid virus spread has been attributed to group activities within the prison." which in reality means blame overcrowding and poor ventilation. I've been to NST prison, and it's not nice! -
Foreigner Assaults Phuket Tuk Tuk Driver Over Fare Disagreement
2long replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
Thanks for misquoting me, for whatever reason you chose. Mine was a QUESTION saying 'IS IT possible that that the driver saw that the Brit was drunk and possibly new to Thailand, and scammed him?' -
Former Bangkok Teacher Arrested for Assaulting Student
2long replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
The poor kids' parents should be arrested for encouraging child abuse. They should have aimed high (1,000,000B and castration) in order to deter others and at least take some of the pain away!
