This bunch should be permanently dissolved, sort of like Alka Seltzer.

Not my fav martians, but can’t blame them… bed down in a freezing wet ditch, slay your neighbours and very likely be killed or lead a charming existence amid myriad pretties in sunny Thailand.

Couldn't give a monkey's either, but they have to have a little bit back if they post a wind up OP like that. ????

Just like having a few coffees in one hit, good clarity n all that. Dunno about that klong water in the bottle though. ????

Cue the Thai authorities to dismiss him as thoroughly as possible…. Thai person committed a crime?, entered illegally, etc etc; must be a minority, must be an immigrant, definitely not Thai, never! lol

Indeed. Get ready for a mountain of bureaucracy!

Wasn’t that the occasion when on greeting the president, YL slipped up with ‘who are you?’ as opposed to ‘how are you?’ ???? Yingluck or Michelle? Probably YL. She was quite fetching some days at some angles. Bung Vanessa Mae into the mix though…

Any incoming party that successfully outlawed it probably wouldn’t last more than one term, having upset swathes of the populace and lost a lot of people a lot of money.

Be alright 99% of the time but, as pointed out, upset someone (in particular a kompooteeer shop owner) then there is the potential. If it ever came down to having your collar felt, just offer the to fix the copper’s’ kompooteeers too. ????

Yep. Do it after expiry to get the 5 years + the time to your following birthday.

The Chinese are funny. They do not have the enthusiasm, experience or mettle to properly take on the big boys and potentially risk all. It is all hot air for-domestic consumption… their affairs are currently a mess. Even Taiwan—as much as it pains them—would risk crippling sanctions just for, what, a bit of face and some chips? I think not. Do what you do best; keep on copying / stealing intel and making lots of money, but be careful what you wish for.

Bet he’s not getting brown envelopes from the fag makers. Why even bother asking for his lopsided opinion, or any in this fudged poll for that matter? Ask a teetotaller should alcohol be banned, blah blah.

^^ I hate then too, Mike. That pic is gross! Just wish they would do the big F.O. so that this wonderful nation could finally move forward.

Cannot really help climate and commercial burn off at this stage, but burning locally and those old <deleted> tuk-tuks should be brought to book immediately. Chiang Mai is a disaster zone for the latter. Thailand is not a third world country, but at times it behaves like it is.

Bloke was of US vintage lol, but nice try. More to this story, but as usual most are drawn by it and make their conclusions.

Easily done. Big climbs, very hot. Not everything is a conspiracy/suicide etc. Hope she is well. ????

So you are 'watering' the garden with beer? Confused...

Still got my iPhone 5 in the drawer. Might resurrect as can't stand the 13. Real glitchy with a stupid price tag! F Apple! lol OP, get a 'normal' phone with good antivirus protection and don't do your banking on it.

^^ But then parties might lose face for suggesting such a thing as it would bring doubt. Poor dude. Do think the article should put 'stunning' into parentheses though. Women of course get duped, but the amount of men that get the shaft in the name of that diseased word love!

Don't know the story (all types & nationalities overstay), but cannot blame him if he's getting away from that weasel MF's pathetic little land grab. Just because he's unfortunate enough (please excuse) for being born Russian...

^^ Didn't know Honda also made the Yaris?

Dunno about Phuket; bought in Chiang Mai while back and test drove truck which was not an issue. Doesn't help, but would suggest renting one for a week and putting it through its paces properly... don't get much feedback out of a 20m drive.

Careful careful. As you say, probably best to deny but wouldn't bring up any of the above if sh*t happens since it might suggest means. If it came to it. say sorry about that, didn't notice.

No thanks. Quality craft and service but direct trumps it for me every time. Had a <deleted> flight with Emirates a while back and the messing around change planes + the ever present--though low probability--chance of being pulled for taking a benign pain killer... No doubt profits are being 'siphoned' with Thai, but never had an issue with them. Great flight from London direct/times etc.

It is quite clear from the OP that they are not into luxuries, Nigel. Do pay attention! These topics ALWAYS generate the normal to the ridiculous. Yep, you can live in BKK for 20k... normal digs, liveable food, couple grand a week beer, the odd bit of strange here and there. Big budget guys lord it up (ooh, I can't live on 200k a month blah blah), but typically have loud cars, loud houses and high maintenance women. Don't do any of them. Have a beer on the balcony, get a motosai taxi to town and do not tip... EVER (they think you're a pr*ck when you do big anyway)! ???? Have fun!
