  1. Give me breath.... I was just looking forward to a possible weekend with much less Bangkok traffic driving pushily around with disregard for others.... didn't we open post Covid with some month of music festivals that was accompanied by higher than normal crime and gang fights?
  2. Well it won't last with the sewage pipes working at full capacity this festive season.
  3. Somewhat safer on the inside than the outside for sure.... where they share roads, trains win!
  4. Doubt it would show what happened in the room. If he dragged her in there by the hair case proven... if she appears to go in there willingly, nothing proven.
  5. Yours is too.... you are labeling this guy a rapist based on very little.
  6. She may well have been asking for it, yes. If she cannot remember we are not sure how she behaved, or if the man knew her to be under the influence of these drugs.... tricky scenario.
  7. So that 'high dollar' tourists target market we heard of in the past was a load of nonsense, or it failed completely..... back to scraping barrels or less discerning tourists?
  8. In every cloud there is a silver lining!
  9. So they spent on average about 46,000 baht each? It actually doesn't seem that much.
  10. Oh we get all of that from some of the other guests that were cheered off the planes onto red carpets..... nothing new here except they cover all the bases in one,
  11. Fortunate indeed, I wish I did..... my Mrs seems to make up for me though and we really need a revolving door on the toilet for her. How did we get onto this topic?
  12. Let us hope so.......unusual on this forum for anyone to accredit good decisions to Thai authorities, unless it suits their own beliefs. The rest of the world (what is that 4 or 5 countries in your estimation?).... was subject to some desperate situations due to past errors....what they try to do now is a half hearted approach, unlikely to achieve much.
  13. No, a few more arrive on every plane.... to entrust so much monetary value to someone he likely hardly knew was beyond belief..... I don't even grasp what the 9 million up-front was, key money? Places can be had without key money, and I do not grasp how a place requires both a lease and a monthly rent. Expensive lesson.
  14. Ministry of spittoons, crowd control and elephant pajamas!
  15. It is some years since I had a break there in HH... IIRC it was near Xmas and the place was packed with Scandewegians. Not a chance of getting to sleep before 2am!
  16. I am pulling things out of the air but I guess I hear of such incidents in this area (Banglamung) at least once a year.. also include the odd one where someone has gone to sleep on the railway lines! There are quite a few crossings.. Makes me fearful of when we get the high speed trains up and running!
  17. Not surprising, have you seen the roads!
  18. If you happen to still be alive......
  19. No ranking involved... I exclusively use Big-CX, plenty of parking and quite easy to get to... especially if you go early. I back it up with a couple of supermarkets near the house and the Expat shops. The ones near the house just don't seem to stock the variety needed.
