They sure do, Hitler, Putin, Blair immediately spring to mind. -
My travels on the motorbike have only been sometimes in Bangkok and Pattaya, never south of there. They have mostly been in Central Thailand and Isaan. I have only been in Hua Hin once and that was when I was a school teacher, and the teachers at the school were invited down to Hua Hin for the weekend. It was a very nice place.

That surprises me, having traveled through much of Thailand on my motorbike, there is always Makro and an occasion Tops in some places. Apart from Bangkok and Pattaya I have never seen a Villa or Foodland.

Did you not see "To Hell and Back"? Audie Murphy playing himself. I first saw it as a little boy, best war movie ever.

That's all very well, but I am still not sure what YMMV means, anyway I am not going to waste my time googling because someone is too lazy to type properly instead of using initials. I am not trying to be rude as you are one of the more sensible posters here.

I am very surprised to hear that there is sometimes no Foodland in the same vicinity as a Villa Market. But then I do not live in Bangkok and am mainly only around the lower Sukhumvit area when I do go there.

What does YMMV mean? You are on a forum, not texting on a smartphone.

Insurance policies are worded in legal jargon so they can look for an excuse not to pay out on claims. It happens all the time.

Villa are more expensive than everybody, better using Foodland.

The case was very heavy, but as I said I would have taken it home and let the wife decide.

An IQ test for Thai's?? If that had to happen, there would be very few Thai's getting into western countries.

Everything does change Charlie as you say, bus companies, train companies, police forces, but not so much in America. In the fifties and probably before they had the LAPD, Greyhound and Trailways bus companies, Amtrak trains. Today they all still have the same names.

or collecting brown envelopes.

Korean tourist says they were pickpocketed on Pattaya Beach
NoshowJones replied to Social Media's topic in Pattaya News
I am never on Beach Road or anywhere else when I am in Pattaya after about 10pm, I never carry more than 2000Bt tucked into my sock. But I will say this, and I mean it. If I ever even have as much as an attempt by anyone trying to pick pocket me I will put an old wallet with 3 20Bt notes and some fishing hooks stuck in them in my pocket the next night I go out. -
I bought a Xiaomi Readme note 9 smartphone about 3 years ago, yes it still works, but the torch keeps coming on without warning, and when I leave it on the table with the timing at "never", most times it just moves to somewhere else. Nearly every time I try to change to another feature, the camera comes on. I paid about 10.000 Bt for this phone because it had the best reports of all the smartphones at that time. What a mistake.

I bought a small bedside clock from Mr DIV 3 months ago. Guess what? It still works.

or me.

I have recently bought two items from Mr DIY and can't even turn them on, if the Chinese are not sh!tting on the kerbside, peeing on the airport train, sh!tting in the back of taxis, disgraceful behavior at "all you can eat" buffets, they are selling you top class junk.

As far as I'm aware, only police above a certain rank can ask to see your passport, not sure which rank though.

I understand what you are saying, it's just like my hatred for Lazada and their cheating sellers, I have had a dreadful time with them and their products, even now it is a song and dance just to sign in, but other people have been happy with them.

Lets say you found a bag or wallet
NoshowJones replied to Sparktrader's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
If you find it ie, on the sidewalk and no ID, then keep it, but as I said, if it was a real lot of money, ie 50.000Bt or more, I would take my wife's advice.
