For the information of all the gay-bashing, bible thumping posters out there, today is the Feast Day of St. John The Goth.

Go and celebrate.

Phil Morris and his mates need to learn to read the smoke signals.

Air purifier indeed.

There's nothing like the sweet smell of success.

k'ching, k'ching.

So it was a Russian-led hit squad. Perhaps one Russki in charge and the rest a group of local 'foreigners'.

Hardly the'A' Team. Perhaps they forgot to employ a getaway driver and so got stuck in traffic.

Not like you see in the movies.

Laughable.

Why not make an effort to enforce the already existing traffic laws.

Stuff like this only tarnishes Phuket's image in the eyes of the people who don't see all the other crap, cons, scams etc. that go on regardless.

There are none so blind as those who will not see.

"322,620 millimeters of pseudo-ephedrine.." is about 2 miles long.

That's one hell of a "trip".

make that about 350 yards.

presumably they meant millilitres.

What exactly is 'ultimate' legal action?

Banishment to the paddy fields?

"322,620 millimeters of pseudo-ephedrine.." is about 2 miles long.

That's one hell of a "trip".

An anagram of 'Thai political stability' is 'hot capitalist liability'.

Not sure if I'd want to invest there.

Religious expectations may be pure as the driven snow, but plenty of alleged followers are not.

'It was confirmed that no other individuals entered the apartment prior to the discovery of his body by a cleaner at 12.30pm on Monday.

Therefore, presumably it was a self inflicted head injury (deliberate or accidental) with blood everywhere?

If you read the rest of the article the police are speculating that he had a pre-existing medical condition which caused the death.

Insanity?

Certainly insanity rules here.

Undoubtedly the headline and the article and are not written in the best of English.

However, I think that the gist of it is clear even though it lacks a fair bit of detail.

In my kitchen I'm trying to reassemble a Lamborghini Gallardo from auto parts but I'm missing a couple of wheel nuts.

Can anyone help?

"Luckily no one was killed......"

Bit early to say that.

Will wait for the toxicological effects on the diver. Could be a few days.

Diplomats are briefed extensively on the country that they are working in.

The ambassador is well aware that Thailand has a long history of not responding to international condemnation and of Phuket's myriad of problems. Private talks are the way to change things.

TV posters miss the point yet again.

Not critcising in public is one thing, but to actively praise each Phuket police officer publicly is hardly sending out the right message.

The ambassador's comments are unbelievable.

Can't work out what's behind such drivel, apart from ignorance.

It would have been better if she had kept her mouth shut.

If there is a war going on, why is the U.S. ambassador kissing <deleted> in Phuket?

The problem is nothing to do with white teachers. The majority of Thais are taught by Thai teachers who are afraid to speak english (even if they could), and use Thai 95% of the time. I'm still astounded that the average government school graduate can say barely more than hello, even after 12 years of learning english. There are plenty of excellent speakers of english here, educated in private / international schools / overseas, but they are in the vast minority of all citizens.

Can a minority be 'vast'?

Just asking.

Well, Thai my kangaroo down , Sport.

Another case of Inxs.
