    Way back when I worked overseas my boss would walk around at 6.45am at work with one of those big plastic mugs that had a sealable-top on. It was full of whisky & coke. Because he was the boss he could get away with it.

    Back in the 80's smoking (tobacco) at work was very common. In fact in the 80's people seemed to smoke EVERYWHERE!😊

    I've worked with people who drink at work.

    There are people campaigning in the UK to have cannabis classified as a class A drug. One of the main reasons being stated is that it induces psychosis in some users.

    Ah ok, I see what you mean. Mine are every 2 or 3 months. Heart condition.

    I have to get a repeat prescription for my meds in the UK, and my medical condition hasn't changed.

    It would seem that many non-users don't like the smell of it wafting around public places. It's a 'pungent' and not very pleasant smell. In the UK recently a colleague complained that he could smell it when his neighbours were smoking it (in their back garden). (I'm not virulently anti-drugs, I've had a smoke a few times before, partly out of curiosity, quite pleasant).

    Lucky that he didn't make it on to the flight to Malaysia and get caught there, where the death penalty is more likely to be carried out.

    Soi 23 (Soi Prasarnmit) is to Soi Cowboy pretty much what Soi Nana is to Nana Plaza. In the day time I quite like that soi, plenty of shade trees, and some OK expat pubs. (I used to send my 90 day report from the Post Office there too). 😊

    Red, green, black. Also, there are so many amazing colours for cars today. Battleship-grey seems V popular in the UK!😪

    She wouldn't be anything like the only person he's done such a thing to over the years, it's just the only one that's become public.

    A Mickey-monk, lots of 'em about!😁

    Lambo's are beautiful cars, but why do they seem so often to be finished in such awful colours!?

    Maggi brand noodles in S E Asia.

    It's not really about the 20 Baht, but that it seems as though the advertised price is misleading. In the UK it tends to be the price you see is the price you pay. I remember often seeing beer advertised as 99++ Baht in Bangkok.

    Over the years I heard quite a few people say that they wouldn't go in a place if they saw "++" on their advertising board. In the UK we're used to 'the price you see is the price you pay'.

    Just pay an agent XX,000 per annum, no problemo?

    Some years ago it was reckoned that many of the best IT people come from Russia.

    As an old British friend used to say "In Thailand, everything's bent" (crooked).

    Apparently nowadays some heroin is cut with Fentanyl.

    I thought that China White was heroin? (Or "Golden Brown" as in the song).

    I know of an American guy who lives in Bangkok who admits to "slinging dope" (heroin) when he lived in Philadelpia. I've long suspected that people who get in trouble over illicit drugs in Thailand were involved in them in some way or other where they come from.

    Back during the COVID (vaccine) years I heard some younger people state that they didn't want the vaccine cos they were choosey about what they put into their bodies. But I suspected not so choosey as to not buy (dodgy) drugs from dodgy people in nightclubs or on the street.

    Many years ago it was found that a surprisingly high %'age of £20 notes had a trace of cocaine on them in London.
