    And the lesson is: choose your victims carefully.

    I don't know, maybe the UK authorities will never pick up on all these guys living in Thailand and claiming UK residence. But it's a bit like living with the Sword of Damocles hanging over your head, rather you than me; though I can sorta understand it for those totally dependent on the State Pension, they've no choice really, if they want to stay here.

    Why would someone take pet dogs for slaughter? Like there's not enough strays to go around. Indicates a particularly sociopathic mindset if you ask me.

    This literary niche/genre has been done to death. The Damage Done was sorta interesting but now it's zzzzzzz.

    Live and let live, I say. Never a good idea to get between the goose and the gander, or the gander and the gander 555.

    Missing - "Fred, I've got a sudden craving ... "

    My own view is that this activity is relatively benign; given that teenagers will blow off steam by getting up to some kind of illicit shenanigans, no matter what you do, and there are a lot worse things than street racing.

    India and China are Thailand's natural markets, given the rise of the eastern economies, and the decline in your average Westerner's earning power.

    Just 3 days away; very welcome for those of us that don't use aircon much. I must say though, that I've been here so long that my blood has thinned, and I need an extra layer and a banket at night, even at these rather benign temperatures.

    I was a bit puzzled how a special services soldier might drown fishing, given that their training is pretty tough and excludes the more fragile types, but I missed the bit about him being a former special services soldier, and then I saw his age - 69.

    Exciting stuff, like a movie.

    I didn't realise Thais sometimes bury their dead, I thought everyone, even paupers and the unclaimed, were cremated.

    If you leave stuff like that unattended on a beach you're just asking for trouble.

    Solyent green.

    A Luxembourg passport holder working as an illegal tour guide? Jesus, things must be worse in Europe than I thought.

    Riding bikes is a young man's game, you don't bounce so well as you age; still, 66 ain't a bad age to go, you're probably avoiding a lot of age related disorders.

    Read the bracelet (yeah, if you expand the image you'll see some writing).

    I expect, and factor in, a gradual reduction of sterling's buying power v. the baht, as the UK continues its slow inevitable decline, and I'll be long gone by the time this has a real material effect on me personally, a sudden collapse in sterling would be a problem though.

    Yeah, seems a bit weird.

    Good advice - most analysts seem to consider a wider regional war almost inevitable.

    Thailand playing its usual game of running with the hare and hunting with the hounds.

    WTF, how awful, even by Thai standards.

    This type of event seems to be pretty common in some anglo-saxon societies. They passed one punch laws in Australia, which raised awareness. The problem is a lot of people still consider the odd punch as not that serious; a myth propagated to a large extent by Hollywood.

    That is what is known as a "Dead Cat", and its purpose is to reduce wind noise.

    The whole affair, especially the guy hitting his head on the ground, brings to mind Australia's one punch laws.
