Yesterday I was riding home on the hard shoulder up the 117 highway when I saw this case lying on the 1st lane with the traffic driving round it. I stopped, picked it up, it was heavy, so I strapped it up on the back seat and continued on my journey. I was thinking about what to do with it when I got home, obviously opening it up and seeing if there was any sort of ID so I could get it returned to the owner. A few Ks up the road I saw a truck sitting there with the hazzard lights on, and a girl with a baby looking at the traffic. I stopped and she saw the case on my bike and I knew it was hers. What would you have done if that girl with the truck wasn't there? What if there was a fair amount of money in it? I know I would not have taken it to the police with the money in it for obvious reasons, so what would you have done? I have found money in the past and handed it in at the police station back in the UK, I even found a credit card the last time I was in the UK and took it to the bank. If you found a large amount of money with no ID on it while in a taxi or a bus, or even lying on the pavement. Would you take it to the police here in Thailand, or handed it to the taxi or bus driver?

Thanks everybody.

Any work that has been done to my house in the last 15 years, ie electrics, building works or repairs etc, have been excellent, apart from only one odd occasion.

Lazada made me trouble at the login (name/password) requiring captchas, unlock with code via mail that never arrived (might be the mail provider bouncing anything from Thailand). "In the end I gave up and created a new account based on my mobile nr. and a Gmail account. Works Ok since then." I had the same problem and done the same as you, it worked well for a while then went back to it's old ways. I am now back to my original email and password, and it works about one time in five. I am now so fed up with their six digits one time password etc. Lazada is just one big shambles apart from getting my deliveries.

The majority of Thai people, I will not say they are stupid, but they do have a sad lack of intelligence and common sense, their road behaviour tells you that as most Thai's do ride motorbikes, let their underage children ride them on main roads, leave and enter side roads on the wrong side as well as just riding on the wrong side of the road. I am not going off topic here, just using road behaviour as an example, there are also other examples.

We have an outside freezer, someone has left the lid open and the food is completely defrosted, the freezer is mostly empty and the food, one packet of green garden peas two packets of fish, two packets of pork sausages, and pack of French Fries, have completely defrosted, can any of that food be defrosted again and be safe to eat? Thanks.

If you are ugly and have a big belly it is the only way you are going to get sex.

I never knew who any of the two of them were either. What about Peter Manuel? Anyone know who he was?

Or Peltin Elton. Now there's one to put on the mantelpiece to keep the kids away from the fire. ????

What about Tony Blair?? He was responsible for many more killings than this Dahmer guy.

What about his big brother Old King Charlie?? He makes the "sleeping partner" that's the unelected Thai deputy PM, look like Elvis.

Yes, I like the fishburgher also.

In that case "beware".

Deliveries from Lazada with their companies are no problem, if you are buying food again no problem, but beware of their sellers when you are ordering other stuff, the last two things I bought from them just did not work, yes it was only a few hundred Bt, but just the same????

Excellent post, and I agree with what you are saying, but the unelected PM is not a politician. We all know how he got into running the country.

That's probably true, but one thing a PM in Thailand does not need is a high IQ, the present unelected PM being a soldier is proof of that.

The point I am making is that the only people who are qualified to test anyone's eyesight properly are opticians.

Yes, a copy but you do not let them keep your actual passport.

Did they fail to get their license renewed? Another thing, and this does not apply only to Thailand. Nobody should be allowed to test anyones eyesight except qualified opticians.

Only 5 years????

As far as I'm aware, the only people who can even ask to see your actual passport apart from the usual IO's, banks, government departments, travel companies etc, not individual business owners. Even police below a certain rank cannot demand to see your passport.

If the UK guy in Pattaya is the one who runs Key Visa, then yes, I would recommend them, they only charged me 31000Bt for returning to Thailand with a new passport which did not have my re entry permit on it and I had to start my retirement extensions from the start. Very cheap at the price.

What about old King Charlie in the UK wearing a sword when he poses with all these medals, bling and regalia, and what about that hat? ???? Just shows that swords are not only used for fencing as I cannot imagine old Charlie using one.????

Maybe I'm not understanding this correctly, every time I fly back and forth to the UK I always have a power bank with me for obvious reasons, and although I always had my laptop checked, I have never been pulled up.

HomePro will only provide installation and repair services if you, or the engineer they provide live not too far from their store. I asked them to provide installation of something a few years back and they said no because I live too far away, 50Ks.
