  1. There are many rumours of a little sprinkling of something being added to boost effect and sales.
  2. If he put on a frock and makeup and walked up and down Beach Rd, he would be too.... unless he had his dog with him!
  3. Would a lawyer not offer better advice on this?
  4. Anyone who actually wants to drive on Pattaya Tai both ways, particularly these days, for a bit of shopping is also perplexing. If one can do the weekly shop on foot, or on a motorcycle, you could probably manage at a much closer 7-11.
  5. I doubt the news is limited to just this forum! And may well include non Germans. If you take the time to read the OP, you can see it was lifted from another publication...... Plenty of Thai tourists come here!
  6. Certainly not location........
  7. Well most m/cs do not have foot pedals for operation..... we also see shirtless tourists riding motorcycles and I always felt a serious case of road burn a high risk. One day perhaps, the guy you saw will come across a pile of doggy doo at the lights.
  8. This country needs to get a grip on the fact that their favourite tourists do not give a flying xxxx about their rules and regulations, and will treat Thailand as an extension of their own country. Obviously to the extent of excluding the locals from whatever business they feel inclined to set up.
  9. Now this is something that really does shatter the family friendly image!
  10. They did not initially come to do that.......came to wage war!
  11. Yes, I saw it on a Thai news report and the front of Index was clear.
  12. This one is a Scot, they prefer not to be called Brits!
  13. Sounds unlikely. They would have been aware requirements were not being met..... so many Westerners are having difficulty opening a single account in their name these days.
  14. Dare we worry that the floating stuff in Pattaya bay has gotten so thick..... ?
  15. You can find such statistics with a quick and easy Google search. They do confirm Thailand is in the bottom third and hence quite low on crime. I doubt Pattaya is worse than London as an example.
  16. Yes, I was thinking along those lines while in Big-CX just the other day. Quite a few bits of 'space' now have a few of these stuck there. They didn't seem to be getting a lot of use, but either they are legal or not!
  17. Yes, that is a fair point.... but some blame must go to whoever left this danger there. I never walk along looking at my phone, nor chew gun at the same time, and have had head bumping incidents, particularly if I have a baseball cap on! Probably overly focused on watching the ground for deep holes and dangers.
  18. There was an incident a few years ago where a couple of these dogs actually killed a person (Thai), after the owner finished telling us how harmless and cute they were, he moved them away and later claimed to have given them away. I suspect they are alive and well and may even be back at his place by now,
  19. Haha, yes, Thailand doesn't do refunds! Video looked more like a lot of running away!
  20. Straight after the report of the great wastage regarding the Bali Hai boat docking and lifting marina, which never worked. The new cars must be getting boring to those that got them back then.
  21. Well we often tell people they need to get out more on this forum. In your case, perhaps not!
