  1. Pre Covid days the plod in Hua Hin used to set up a road block between soi 94, and 102. They would then test everyone they stopped for drugs. Nowadays they are still there nearly every night but only check for alcohol.
  2. Quite right, however, a bigger fear is that they keep it and start charging us a fee for it.
  3. Maybe we will see more scenes like this from 30 years ago.................
  4. It seems, according to the article they believe the mother to be a 17 year old girl. While I am in no way condoning what she did, she needs help as much as the baby she abandoned, perhaps maybe more help in the form of psychiatric assistance.
  5. My main concern, as pointed out by the poster above is the apparent lack of an RCB, I think that is what it is called. The button on the shower front that when pressed ( to test the system ) cuts off the electric.
  6. Well, if the society was noisy and argumentative then I would be pi**ed off too. By the way my calculations, allowing for leap years is 2887. Seems like he missed at least 32 ninety day reports...................
  7. Maybe they meant a total of 15 minutes in the queue.
  8. Quote..... "The exact cost and length of time of the project is not clear." I bet it isn't............................
  9. How about a crackdown on ALL drivers who have NO LICENCE !!!!! This is so blatantly taxi mafia induced harassment. The B.I.B. should hang there head in shame, except they are incapable of such a feeling.
  10. I have a message for the poor irate, snowflake brigade they call netizens......why not get off your ar**s and do more for the poor and handicapped of your Country. Such as lobbying the Government, both local and in the cities, to provide proper wheelchair access to building, decent footpaths, more organisations to help the poor and needy, particularly the mentally handicapped who are often left alone to roam the street. Look to your own back yard before condemning others.
  11. Yes, but you had to get drunk BEFORE you drove to the party in order to make it realistic.....
  12. Just remember Steve, before you go to sleep put the bathroom light on. That way you do not get up in the middle of the night and p**s in the wardrobe by mistake.
  13. When it comes to that lady, you will get no argument from me.
  14. One of the most sensible suggestions I have read on here in a long time.
  15. Severe head injuries, not wearing a helmet maybe, or not having one strapped on.............. R.I.P. to yet another rider.
  16. Don't forget he was also instrumental in selling off the Gold reserves to balance the books, and make it look like his policies were working.
  17. One thing I always found amazing, especially flying out of Heathrow. You stand in a queue and put the liquids in a bag. Then I see security staff removing excess bottles and putting them in a large bin next to them...........just in case it is a bomb............. Yes, I understand that it is the mixing of liquids that make up a device, but you have to question the logic.
  18. This is The company I used, very professional service, I would recommend them to anyone. Based in Pattaya, not far from Big C. i had an email from VFS on the Friday that my passport had arrived. It was delivered by EMS on the Sunday. Also, good advice re 90 days. I was already registered, but it proved a godsend when the renewal came around.
  19. Yes, here she is relaxing with a smoke later...........................
  20. Well done, as I mentioned before mine was 2 days shy of seventeen weeks when the new one was delivered to VFS in Bangkok. I was warned by my agent to allow 16 weeks. Crazy isn't it. I could have walked it to England quicker......
  21. I have had two Visa cards go missing this year. The first, sent in August never arrived. Contacted the bk who sent another one in September. They told me to expect 6 weeks for delivery. Nothing has arrived. Now they will only send a card by courier, which is going to cost me 38 Pounds Sterling, which I assume will be DHL. When I went to the post office all I got was a blank wall. I am not blaming the Thai post office per se, but it does look like they may be the weak leak in the chain.
  22. Ugly monstrosity. I wonder if there is a greenhouse tax on the tickets, as the Governments forced us to pay to fly, and who continue to keep slamming on car consumption. That hulk burns around 30 to 50 Gallons ( 225 litre), an HOUR, or put another way, 150 metric tonnes a day.
  23. Same here, got the pop up, hit the X at the top, and read the article. I am no techy geek, but am using Chrome on Windows 10 with adblocker. What concerned me in the article is that in 180 days an awful lot of retirees there will be kicked out. The article does however point to the fact that these retirees employ a lot of people, rent a lot of properties, and motor bikes etc. So it may not be viewed as a popular decision. Is the Indonesian government as Authoritarian as here? if so the idea could easily spread to here.
  24. But, But, but, There is no prostitution in Pattaya. The police said so last year.
  25. Is it me or is the moto taxi man having a quick nap while the plod do the paperwork. Thais will sleep on a washing line in a hurricane if the chance arises.
