Advice On Moving Back To Pattaya Don't. So, by Indian's sleeping on benches, would that imply they've booted the brits off? 😋

Yeah, no-one can be arsed in watching videos. Write it down, man!

The locals are fed up with the annoying tourists.
daveAustin replied to MalcolmB's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Probably why South America is so fugged up... the spaniards have a great culture, food, language etc but are a fickle bunch nonetheless. Spanish colonialism: Mexico, Argentina, Colombia etc lol British colonialism: US, Canada, Oz (never mind), NZ etc Massive difference in mindset. Alright, the US is all over the shop of late and Oz is, well, Oz (never mind), but the mindset in having a go at tourists is proper Spain. Not the sharpest tools in the shed. -
Report Drive Drunk, Lose Your Car: Thailand’s OAG Pushes Tough New Proposal
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Careful what you wish for. Ok, drunks shouldn't be on the road--cars that is, I'd never drive under the influence, but bikes aren't such a huge issue? If you kill yourself, it doesn't really matter. 😋 I would just be careful of the let's-make-everything-normal-and-cosy here, because all of a sudden you're in your boring country again. -
Report Drive Drunk, Lose Your Car: Thailand’s OAG Pushes Tough New Proposal
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Well, they should probably be impounded and crushed... the cars that is. The thing is, since DUI is utterly endemic here, the lawmakers will also get caught out. Alright, the 'd'you know who I am' line would get many bypassed, but the likes of Chiang Mai where it is quite tight would catch a few of them out. -
Far be it from me to cast aspersions on your sexual persuasion 😋, but I totally agree. Religio-purity angle and devious minds aside, the virgin concept is a proper fallacy. From my perspective at least, if the receiver is not enjoying it, it is a big turn-off. Those guys with their 72 thing are so lost. Khamenei; yep. One of those special people—like our Korean friend, Wrong-Un—that is in dire need of meeting his maker.

Iran is a different prospect to all those Mickey ‘Mow’ countries. Quality place with big history and great people and was the spot to be in the 70s by all accounts, only to be ruined by a bunch of tyrannical religious headbangers. This article is heartwarming. The place should ideally be sorted from the inside out. Israel giving them a proper spanking is the less than ideal option. All the bluster from them though—we will make Israel, US, UK, France pay with our military might yada yada yada—is total bs. They are as weak as p*ss. It just can’t be protracted… Europe can’t handle another 10M refugees!

While I don’t per se and get on with anyone, my work puts me around them and they do seem to be a different breed. There are good and bad in all walks of life, blah blah, but the rich tend to be kinda narcissistic-driven and don’t give a F about the little people. Trump is the epitome of this revelation.

Health Thailand Battles Covid Surge with 12,000 Cases in a Single Day
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
No thanks. Up to you, but please don’t push that carry-on on others. If the elderly are sick and worried, then they might want to do the mask thing. As dinsdale says, it is what it is and is trivial in the great scheme of things. It is sensationalist. In other news, somebody trod on someone’s cat. Folks should probably focus on other normal things.- 174 replies

North Korea Relaunches Destroyer After Embarrassing Setback
daveAustin replied to Social Media's topic in World News
lol what a donkey. Wouldn’t mind ‘sailing’ his daughter though. Wonder if that would infuriate him, too. -
Wouldn’t go comparing Hitler to any of the people representing America of late. Ok, he turned out to be a nut and I don’t advocate natzism, but he was super smart and very well read. Last US president anywhere near him was probably Carter then JFK before him, the latter being particularly brilliant. But from the 1980s-90s onwards… hmm. Trump is the icing on the cake. Compared to the above; well, one can’t really do that. Put it this way, he is akin to one of them belligerent ten-a-penny fat mouthy kids in the playground that everybody had to endure.

Trump lovers won’t have it, but it is proper cringe when he speaks today. If you go back to some 80s footage, he used to do quite well and had a half decent vocabulary, sans all that ‘America is the best’ nonsense. Aside from his diabolical, limited wordiness today, we also have social media, so whatever he is thinking is immediately put out there. Most recent, the warnings to Iran and Russia. So cringe. I mean, did his great grandson get hold of his phone, or what!

Israel’s Strikes Leave Iran Reeling Amid Escalating Conflict
daveAustin replied to Social Media's topic in World News
^^ I'm none of the above. No love for Israel and certainly not for the Iranian regime, but this is the perfect opportunity to get in there and sort this once and for all. Deactivate all nuke sites and do their level best to help the people eviscerate that awful regime. It is roundly hated by Iran's neighbours and its own people alike. Terrorist organisations aside, the only playas that are upset are the likes of China and Russia, but we all know their agenda and 'morals'. F them! Iran will let the odd barrage of missiles fly indiscriminately, but small price to pay, because if Israel lets them off, they will rebuild and go all-in for that nuke. -
Report Thaksin Faces Possible Resentencing Over Hospital Stay

I hope that if, god forbid, I ever get sent down, I’ll tell them I’m sick and get similar clemency. Dude needs proper locking up.- 41 replies

Motorcycle tyres - any advice please (bad roads)
daveAustin replied to Martinpeter's topic in Motorcycles in Thailand
Gawd. There’s always one. Even with a car and a bike, I’d take the bike out 90% of the time. Op, ignore the boring old farts. What’s the tyre pressures like? They tend to over-inflate here. Should be around 30psi. -

Nothing much to do in regular Thailand

👍 Totty aside, if folks are bored here, they've got bigger problems.
