The new cars might have to be returned to the show room then.

Migrant Worker Loses Fingers in Coconut Machine
A bit of a coincidence as I was watching some Youtube video last night of heavy metal workers in Pakistan. They were very skilled, but the potential of crushed hands and arms was all over the place and made me cringe. Poor young man maimed for life.

What da flippin heck will be built on that cleared Jomtien land?
I saw coconut trees mentioned so you could be right. Be a few years before coconuts come too.

'If it works, don't fix it' more commonly heard.

Drunken Christmas Brawl Injures Foreign Tourist in Pattaya
Christmas day inspecting bruises in the mirror is the time a lot of men decide getting into bar fights should not be on the itinerary!

German Tourist Loses 22,000 Baht in Pattaya Hair Cure Scam
I am surprised he got so far and lasted until the early hours with this much cash in his pocket. This scam needs quite gullible, and bald victims, yet is quite successful here....... are bald folks particularly dim?

Russian Couple Fined for Indecent Act on Pattaya Beach
Next to the life rings on Pattaya Beach, a bucket of cold water is needed!

Ladyboys Arrested for Pickpocketing Israeli Tourist
I doubt it. Seems all too often we see the same overly caked up face back out there soon after.

Russian Couple Fined for Indecent Act on Pattaya Beach
Yeah, I doubt they get the same opportunity back home in Siberia in December. You would get frozen to the seat!

What da flippin heck will be built on that cleared Jomtien land?
Probably. I have a pal with a VT5 condo that faced that way and he brought it to my attention. It also got mentioned here.

Walking Street visit
Well the fact that part of Hwy 7 comes to a dead end in Pattaya at Sukhumvit suggests tourist travel to Pattaya was part of it.

Indian Man Arrested for Guiding at Pattaya Floating Market
Some of them perhaps.... there are a lot of Thais of Indian ethnicity around (and Chinese). Or should Thailand let anybody into the country and let them work these jobs?

What da flippin heck will be built on that cleared Jomtien land?
Didn't the same thing happen before with the same bit of empty land? I have this vague recollection from perhaps 5 or 6 years back that something was planted there after clearing the land, even then folks were concerned what might be happening there, but a consensus felt planting was being done to reduce the tax bill for the land.. Presumably someone is still sitting on it until they get a mega offer!

Ladyboys Arrested for Pickpocketing Israeli Tourist
My predictable comment was more in line with 'they will be out picking pockets for Christmas!'

Four-Year-Old Girl Killed After Being Run Over in Chonburi
Child is beyond justice, sadly. And I am sure the mother feels plenty of guilt. As is often the case, the repentance comes late.

Indian Man Arrested for Guiding at Pattaya Floating Market
Well it doesn't actually admit to being crap in the brochure!

Drunk German Detained After Rampage at Sattahip Market
He needs to be charged with criminal damage... the threat of his visa being cancelled needs to be made to hopefully improve his drinking habits.

Motorcyclist Killed in Collision at Sattahip Junction
Well I watched a car pull into the path of a motorcycle (that had right of way) just the other day. There is a tendency not to worry about what is behind in the Thai driving style.... only be aware of what is in front. It is terribly dangerous and seems to be getting worse.

Chinese Man Arrested in Pattaya for Large-Scale Pod K Production
Getting very worrying this vape trend. Heaven knows what can be in them!

Gas Fire Injures Three at Street Food Stall in Chonburi
I wonder how strict they are with the condition of the old cylinders there. I know the shop has made me replace mine, as they were old and they would not refill them again.

Lost his sync with the rise and fall of the pontoon.

Man Shot Dead After Meeting Friend Over Alleged Love Triangle
These 'meetings' to resolve a love triangle frequently seem to end in serious injury or death for one of the parties involved. I don't think I will turn up if one is ever suggested to me!
