    Do you think I would have one at home like that? Mine would come and pick me up to make sure I slept at home!

    Punishable by a good beating from the building security?

    Crossing that busy area dressed all in black he was likely invisible. As are the traffic lights to many drivers here, so one can suspect a driver going against the lights at that late time. There actually is an elevated pedestrian crossings near there.

    It's all relative I suppose, she may look pretty good relative to all the other fat slappers wandering around her home town... And desperation will clutch at straws.... Life here affects us in many ways.....

    Ex top soccer player. Are you saying that because Beckham does it it is worthy of admiration and maybe even imitation? Be your own man!

    Don't get your point really..... is it 'I am daft too and awaiting a theft?' A victim is a victim irrespective of how sharp the thief may be.

    Fireworks

    jacko45k replied to georgegeorgia's topic in Pattaya

    I paid rather a price to have a Club room with a balcony facing the fireworks and the sea, in Pattaya and after the complimentary sundown snacks and drinks in the Club room was expecting to sit out on the balcony. The Mrs wanted to go sit with the sand up the cracks and meet a few friends on the beach!

    It is a fair approach although I have used many an Agoda room that I paid in advance for without incident..... that said I chatted with a guy on the bus from Ekama,i who had arrived in Bkk with a booking from them to find the hotel was not even there... had closed down some time earlier!

    A pal of mine just moved to the crowded conditions of Bangkok for more intellectual stimulus and variety of entertainment, and to get away from the rather confusing low brow stuff we get in Pattaya. I am not sure the sticks offers much in that respect..... make your own I suppose.

    Well apparently that is what they will get in the UK and many NYE events are cancelled. Here, it is a bit cool at 20degC but looks like it will be a fine day So it is all systems go!. I can hear music in the distance already and it is not yet 7am.

    Leaving valuables out in full view of visiting workers is silly indeed, many a home robbery can be linked to such prior visits.

    Calm down, you are ranting off at a tangent, The topic is about some entitled prxck showing arrogance and disrespecting the authorities and laws of a country he is a guest in. Thai media likes to pick up on such incidents.

    Might depend on what it looks like, there are some evil looking ones for sale in town...zombie knives are they called?

    You two need to find better things to do than watching the snowbirds on their winter avoidance break.

    Inclined to say you were fortunate that they gave you that good arrangement. I would expect any odd days over the month to be charged at the daily rate.

    The silly season, more about greed than goodwill to all men!

    She should have binned him maybe! Probably not the first time he stayed out on the razz.

    You never know what news item might get scraped and repeated in another region. Particularly if the victim or perpetrator hails from there. Pattaya in reality, remains a small town.

    Let us see if he is so light hearted after a night or two on the cell floor

    Sounds pretty secure. Registered was as you would for any facility from a website, where you give them email, a Login ID and put in a password twice, after which I had the facility to log on to do my own TM30.

    Just gotta love a bit of optimism in the mornings.

    Always recall the incident on Soi Post office (years ago) of an English guy lighting off a large firework he had bought, and it appeared not to go off, and he went back to it to take a look. It blew his face off. I have already had my neighbour set off a few, completely unconcerned that he could set homes on fire... there is overgrown and very dry land behind us. Drunken fools, Thai and otherwise, will be at it again in a few days.

    Perhaps, just perhaps, he didn't know of your vast experience prior to that post?

    I don't think it is reality to limit that comment to farangs.......
