  1. The new cars might have to be returned to the show room then.
  2. 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.
  3. I saw coconut trees mentioned so you could be right. Be a few years before coconuts come too.
  4. 'If it works, don't fix it' more commonly heard.
  5. 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!
  6. 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?
  7. Next to the life rings on Pattaya Beach, a bucket of cold water is needed!
  8. I doubt it. Seems all too often we see the same overly caked up face back out there soon after.
  9. Yeah, I doubt they get the same opportunity back home in Siberia in December. You would get frozen to the seat!
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. 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?
  13. 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!
  14. My predictable comment was more in line with 'they will be out picking pockets for Christmas!'
  15. Child is beyond justice, sadly. And I am sure the mother feels plenty of guilt. As is often the case, the repentance comes late.
  16. Well it doesn't actually admit to being crap in the brochure!
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. Getting very worrying this vape trend. Heaven knows what can be in them!
  20. 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.
  21. Lost his sync with the rise and fall of the pontoon.
  22. 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!
  23. Sure I saw pics of him with Epstein on the news!
