  1. A taste of things to come me thinks. With every Tom Dick and Harry growing weed there is a lot of potential this will become a regular occurrence. An unfortunate consequence of the liberalisation of the cannabis laws. Careful where you stray.
  2. Set to join Wagner’s human wave of sacrificial lambs.
  3. Another noteworthy example of the world being a better place without these particular types of people. Disgusting cockroaches.
  4. If banned it only bolsters Poo Tin’s potential conscription pool. Invite them in that may send a stronger message.
  5. The 2010 world cost me 100,000B when my travel agent scammed me to either place a bet or to pay off her debt for earlier losses. Victims of such actions extend well beyond the gambling individual and their families. You won’t stop it but be very wary of where you park any large sum of money during this time of World Cup football.
  6. I’ve found the medical services in Thailand pretty good but they don’t like delivering bad news. So it might be that you’re going to have to ask a lot of questions to get it out of them. The care is good but communication of bad news is poor. My experience at least. Dental very good.
  7. Not sure I'd be brave enough to jump headlong into this offer. No sir-eeeeee Bob. All I see is risk, risk, risk, a truckload of red tape and a whole lot of "gotchas"
  8. He couldn't use the footpath. Too many motorcyclists. The road was his only choice.
  9. He has a big brown paper bag full of baht he wants to convert. He’s kicking himself he never did it when the rate was 30
  10. I tend to agree. If there was not the threat of lethal reprisals you would see so much more anti- limited military operations protests and activities in the streets of Moscow. We need to be careful not to tar everyone with the same brush. The average Russian is also a victim of Putin’s crime albeit unknowingly. Putin is the real villain here not the powerless people.
  11. It’s one of the things that make Thailand interesting. Adds a little colour to what otherwise would be a dreary gray but this then has to be reconciled against all the damage and pain caused to the victims of this corruption. I think it has got to the point where it is now etched indelibly into the DNA of the people and will take many generations to reverse. In the meantime the gravy train will roll on with impunity and payments will continue to be made to those who demand them. Change will not be supported or tolerated by beneficiaries of the system and little can be done to change it within the current setup of things in this country. Uprisings against the system will be short-lived and will not be tolerated by those in power. There is little people can do without great risk to themselves and so it goes on…… and on. And on.
  12. Using the logic put forward by many that have posted he still wouldn't, as a guest of Ukraine, be able to make a political statement. We all know who and what Prawit is and we all know that a spade is a spade and should be called out as such. Not sure his view of Thai politics is twisted. Perhaps your defense of Thai politics is twisted. Hats off to this man and I just hope he is ready to leave soon.
