    Popeye must be very upset!

    Music festival in town last night.... kind of expect such issues!

    One wonders how much sadness is behind her..... I recall coming across a middle aged Thai woman one Sunday morning wailing at the top of her lungs.... there on Klang near the Bangkok Bank... really shook me up.

    I guess you mean the parent who left it there.

    They need to be equipped with some means to wake me up and get me out at my home, but otherwise love the idea!
  6. jacko45k
    Nah, things will remain chaotic for sure.

    Well strictly speaking, I suspect they are just syringes.... I am guessing he sneaked back to recover his network.

    Well to their credit they usually take the robes off them when wrongdoing is proven.....but on occasion the whole barrel is spoiled.

    Well more like home than my birthplace these days, but I accept the point I am kept dangling on a 12 month string, like being under the sword of Damocles.

    Moreso these days.... demographics has shifted.

    Looks like weed will be criminalized again here..... not an experiment that really worked out.

    You maybe present a contradiction.......? Surely in the UK illegals seem to do better than homeless British veterans and mentally ill! What redtops print about it is not really 'treatment', just press seeking to sell papers.

    Don't see much of problem really... just walk up to a m/c taxi driver and tell him where you want to go and how much you will pay and usually off you go. Car taxis used to be a problem but since Bolt less of an issue.

    They still come round and take vitals twice a day! But seriously, mortuary storage. Nothing is free, and it seems you are paying for their failings!

    Great response and matches what I have come across over the years.
  16. jacko45k
    Perhaps because they are home.
  17. jacko45k
    Yes, they do seem to have given up the ghost...... except for the tourist tax collections in front of the Beach Rd station.

    There are plenty of explanations of how this was achieved out there....some far more plausible than little green men with tentacles doing it for no reason one can fathom!

    I don't think so... we have heard of this very scam numerous times.... seems to have overtaken snatching gold off the Indians.

    There is a Thai singing TV program my Mrs watches each evening as I sit there. It seems to specialize in inviting foreigners who have lived here a while, who can often speak good Thai, and they are required to stand there and tell everyone how wonderful Thailand and the Thai people are... it really exceeds the need to be obsequious and fawning. They need their guests to be like that, and spend a lot of money too!
  21. jacko45k
    Exactly... more reason not to escalate things.
  22. jacko45k
    Yeuch...... seen them dump kids on dining tables in shxtty nappies too!
  23. jacko45k
    They have my sympathy.. I have a neighbour who seems to have quite a number of dogs that they are unable to keep quiet..... if they even try to. Couple of noisy adapted motorcycle too... (which set the dogs off)! Keep me away from alcohol and weapons!
  24. jacko45k
    That is true, and how they handle things here..... tourists need to behave themselves.

    Gone a long time ago.......(Big-CX, used to be in the food court). These days I simply scan the bill QR code with a bank app and voila, paid. I think it is near Mum Aroy in Naklua. Search with Google Maps.
