Might stop the Irish bar staff from trying to short-change me in Wetherspoons!

Well that should be cheap as likely not so many of them?

Great News, any chance on a sub for 2 new front tyres?

I was watching some monkey business in a supermarket car park yesterday where something was being moved between vehicles.... it wasn't hot, nobody was sat in either vehicle, yet both engines were running. I was surprised when I came out of the shop this was still the case... must have plenty of money for fuel or a bad battery!

Ironic this is mentioned as the world's population surpasses 8 billion....... somethings gotta give.

It appears they want to move away from the USA's influence wrt to converting money, which has been around for a long time. We don't need Applepay.. there are many working alternatives around.

Too late for a good father!

You are fortunate... we pay 5mil GBP per day to put them up in hotels.

I don't mean to be rude but do you mean 'backup' rather than 'backbone'?

The proceeds on gambling alone should cover the costs!

I used to mess about with Kodi and might find something with Romanian commentary just after half time!

I thought we were discussing tourist towns where there is fun and entertainment......CM closes at midnight for 24 hours!

It's the Thai way...... things get done at the last minute, if at all.

Soon be too few tax paying people to support the immigrants and work-shy in Western Countries!

A pity this happens but the reality is the police do it too. Just heard a recent tale of a guy who spent a night in the cells as he got too drunk, overspent, and could not pay his tab. He spent a night in the cells and then his passport was taken off him until he could pay up.... not having his passport, nor any cash left him struggling.

Ah yes, 20 years of playing 'Hotel California' four times a night, 7 nights a week, and still can't quite get it in tune.

Is he involved in this crime that took place in Pattaya? No mention of him in the above report, and I thought he was focused on Chinese owned nightclubs. casinos etc. Why did you need to even mention him?

I believe that is the case.... it became restricted some years back IIRC....

Was the owner of the dogs collecting recompense or what? Just when you think AN holds no surprise, a story like this comes along!

I always recall being in a WS GGB and this Indian guy coming in and standing there gawping at the flesh on display on stage. He was invited to sit (and of course order) by several staff who he waved off and carried on watching, standing, leering even. Then the manager came and talked to him and he tried to wave him off and got gripped by the seat of his pants and collar and run to the exit. I still see that same manager now and again as he seems to move around WS, and has been employed in many places, and I hold him in high regard!

Well personally I am more inconvenienced by the morning restriction as that is when I do my shopping, and like to buy a variety of canned beers for the week. (To go with the bottles I buy too). I can get them near the house at an open all hours distributor, but they simply do not carry the variety of BigCX. I do not agree it would barely have an effect... it would save lives, I have often seen a few minivan drivers enjoying a few late afternoon beers before driving back towards Bangkok... and I don't believe selling odd bottles between 2pm and 5pm is needed. Would you have then reintroduce selling alcohol at fuel service stations too? I think alcohol sales are quite liberal here....

I did too until I wised up!

Mine, slightly differing model number, RKD15HV2S, was about 3650 baht last April.

Thanks... I seemed to have randomly move into a forum I had not been in for a while and it came up as unread!

Poor Indians, they do seem to drop themselves in it! Sitting down where they please and quick to argue their right! My Bolt driver gave me a lecture on them all the way home recently.
