Or perhaps put the pigeon among the cats? -
Prayut Angered When Asked To Respond To Thaksin’s Comments
Homburg replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
No sense of humour. -
Despite the heat I'd go for FF for safety - a FF saved my face once, and that was from travelling at only around 20kph, and I'd choose white as that should absorb less heat from the sun than darker shades.

Bangkok cabbies must get meters officially adjusted to new fares

Correction: And possibly tampered with later. -
They do x-ray your luggage at Swampy. I was stopped once by customs and the knew what was in my bag before I opened it. In my case I was lucky & there was nothing to pay. They had thought that I was carrying car parts which are taxable, but I was carrying motorcycle parts which apparently are not taxable. I guess these looked similar on the x-ray.

Isn't this a re-run of last year's story? And the year before's, and the year before's, and the year before's, etc. Such good news though, and we can all sleep soundly in our beds without any illegal prostitutes to keep us up all night....

Navy Wants To Raise Sunken Warship For Return To Service
Homburg replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Perhaps re-inboatnation in this case? Even if salvaged, I can't see HTMS 442 Sukhothai ever being a popular posting if returned to service! -
Thailand set to start collecting 300 THB tourist fee from June
Homburg replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
That exit fee still exists. It is now incorporated into the cost of the ticket. So Thailand gets you on the way in and on the way out. Plus everything else in between!- 135 replies

Firstly, really good report Spambot & many thanks for that. In the past I have successfully crossed Thailand-Cambodia-Thailand same day at Poipet. No questions asked or other hassles from the Thai or Khmer IO's, as I recall the queues were the biggest problem. I have certainly not heard of the B300 scam to let you go back same day, but I guess the Khmer IO's are losing tea money of B100 per tourist because of people buying online visas (they would always add B100 to the visa fee) and need want to make it up somehow. That said, my last same day out-in was a few years back, so I guess things have changed and I shall not try that again.

Many Brits are unsympathetic toward Prince Harry !
Homburg replied to Social Media's topic in World News
The writer of "Spare" doesn't seem to understand, Harry has not got the "booby prize", he has hit the jackpot. Being monarch in the UK is just a chore. The Monarch has to commit all his/her time but has no power. Harry on the other hand has the title, has the prestige, the money & the lifestyle and only a very small risk of having to become monarch. What's not to like? The book shows that the writer does not understand the UK Monarchy. Harry should certainly understand it, so that suggests someone else really wrote the book. I wonder who? -

So a viral story on social media led to her being arrested. Why could the "smart" car not have tracked her down in the previous 1315 days?

Phuket Immigration announces results of their recent overstay crackdown
Homburg replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
A laudable objective and catching a 63-year-old American for a truly despicable eight days of overstaying shows that they are well on their way! A magnificent achievement guys. Any chance of some branch of law enforcement tackling the local criminals ripping off the law-abiding tourists? No, thought not.- 72 replies

Just now: Big fire on Sukhumvit Soi 3 near the traffic lights
Homburg replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
It is probably not possible to see the east side of Soi3 from the police box as there is a Skytrain support pillar in front of the box, but the BIB are probably not interested anyway. No money in it.
