Wow ! approx 200,000 THB and he's travelling on a 10 baht Bus !....Great 'Economies of Scale' there !!

Obv more 'Dollars the sense'......

Sawat de Krup Pattaya Pat

I was in Munich 20 yrs ago for the OKTOBERFEST and it was awesome !! Prost und gute Zeiten !

I remember my first night out too and wanting to tell the whole world about it. Ooohh, look at me everyone, I had a night out and am now going to tell a bunch of strangers on the internet what I had for dinner. Did you take pictures of it too and put it up on facebook? You did, didn't you.

Anyhow, glad you enjoyed it. I went there years back and don't have fond memories, but I think I wil give it another go soon. I'd kind of forgot about the place.

Actually it was my one thousand and fifty second night out in Pattaya. I lived there for a number of years. My first time there was in 1968. Not much to write home about then. 2 bars one hotel that I remember. How about you?

Wow ! That's awesome I was first there in 1978 for a footie trip and big changes since then as well......

Excellent News !!

fortes fortuna juvat !!

The frustrations of your situation regarding Thai Laws and 'defacto' are also reflective in the disconcerting situation in both the UK & Oz. Personally I would go the ED Visa route and then whatever propitious circumstance is presented forthwith.

Obviously, your not a malfeasant and if your sedulous enough, your situation will ameliorate........

How does one prove that they are a genuine tourist?

Pretty obvious one would have thought....Have Hotel Booking confirmations.....and a wearing stupid 'I Love Thailand' T-Shirt

Hey iamariva- Lots of good advice has been given BUT not all of your Q's have been answered, NOR time restrictions may prevent you from acting on their advice initially,and your concerns would still be of an adverse reflection.

I'll try to answer them succinctly as possible;-a) Should not,(if only on file in L.A.)OR ring anon &ask; No; c) need verification doc/letter;d) No;e) No

Hope this helps you Good Buddy

They put themselves under by their stupid offering of lifetime membership for 10,000 baht. Of course, they knew by then they were going under and were screwing people as much as they could before running off.

Yes, Indeed !....and OVER 50 Million Dollars siphoned !!

34 million baht, guess the insurance company is looking for someone to repair, must be cheaper to repair here.? than scrap

Looks like rain, guess greasy and slipery

No way that cost 34 Million Thb ! Looks like it's a Gallardo 550/2010 Model @175kUSD which is approx 5.5 Million Thb...........

David Carradine seems to have set a trend for "choking" oneself to death.

Well actually -Michael Hutchence (INXS) was way before Carradine.......

To have one guard fall asleep on the job may be considered unfortunate, to have two do so looks like carelessness.

Of course it could be that Wayne and Shane had been at the local amber nectar and being Aussies weren't used to strong beer.

Strong beer !! Are you serious ?? we're Aussies ! when we are born we're slapped on the arse and given a 'pint'

What ranking does the 'Diesel' smell come in at ??

Australians!

We're NOT ALL like that,But these Idiots certainly sound like they deserved it ...hopefully this will temper there attitude !

lets see 170 odd operators-15% min scammers=25 x 2 per day @ 30000 thb=1,500,000thb / $50,000--per day !!

Now there's a surprise! The BiB have carved up the reward now we have 2 patsies downgrading their involvement.

Thai justice at it's best Read into it what you like! I, for one, patiently await the final outcome. I feel sure the family will not be happy.

Yes indeed but what ever outcome it will not bring the Mother of three back....also the publicity of the tragedy will no doubt 'cause more that a few to re-consider Thailand as a holiday spot, esp, considering the good lady was herself a Travel agent here on a familisation tour !!

normal living expenses, i.e., full time gardener

One must, when living normally, have a full-time gardener....oh, and a Chauffeur of course...oh and a cook,also a cleaner.then there's the manucurist/masseus, the fitness trainer,handyman.......life coach,financial pl.......

One more piece of advice..... Go and have a look in Cambodia. Seriously.....it's a great country and the cost of living is a fraction of the price of Thailand. To me it's a no-Brainer. The wife will be close to home and can visit Thailand easily at any time..... Have a look !

Yea I heard its very cheap...prob like Thailand 15 yrs ago...

I am Australian yet I have ZERO sympathy for this man.

yeah !! let the SOB rot in a Thai prison....

The perception of Love or Jealousy makes many lose all common sense.....

yes, especially for 18yr old children.....

wait till it's dark out and cut the wires.

keep doing that and eventually you will find your peace again...

Would ear plugs work ?

Who is Smokie?

He's a good friend of the Bandit !......

Has a single complaint been made that a taxi was illegal or that a jet ski wasn't registered ?

Why do they keep deflecting away from the real issue ? (Rhetorical)

Yes exactly and they seem to not worry about the regular rip offs that are occurring esp with the Jetski's.....

yet another tragic story because of retarded parents.

They made dog a guard dog and left 9 day old unattended with easy access for the dog.

honestly some people i am certain have less brain than a chicken and should not be allowed to breed, or better yet should be locked up so they do not cause any harm to others

Yes absolute stupidity !....as much as I love Labs...Dogs and babies do not mix !

before they stopped outlook express in XP and switch hotmail to Windows live ... and now what goes happen with a switched Hotmail adress to Win. live mail .??

normally a configuration fro your IP /Cobol/Pascal.....yada yada

Isn't it a bit late for this kind of work?

Better late than NEVER !!
