Yes, I was indeed thinking of the TM30 giving details of the foreigner's location. BTW, AFAICS the "blurry CCTV" looks to be pixelated for privacy rather than blurry so I expect that the BIB have a clearer version? Immigration also has fingerprints on file and I expect that he may have left fingerprints at the scene?

Possibly done in minutes, or even seconds, via Immigration's database? All tourists entering the Kingdom have their faces and fingerprints recorded and (in theory at least) their address in Thailand is also recorded.

I wish my electricity bill was only 500 Baht!

And for riding without a helmet? Or is a helmet not required when firing a gun?

And when they catch the guy they can also prosecute him for riding without a helmet.

Monkey business at the police station. So, business as usual then!

Crackdown = Bigger (and more) Brown Envelopes required

His lucky day! What are his picks for the lottery numbers?

A grenade is possibly not the best choice for an escape? Car, bike, train, boat, horse etc. all come to mind before a grenade....

So terribly sad. RIP to the boy and best wishes for recovery to the others. Is this belief in the "next life" perhaps connected with the recklessness that pervades Thai roads and leads to so many seemingly avoidable tragedies?

More often on arrival than departure tbf, although when you add the time taken at security and immigration you can sometimes be quite stressed to get to the departure gate in time. On arrival I recall one time that by the time I got through immigration all the baggage had been removed from the carousel and stacked up - and I was one of the first from my flight to get to immigration.

Will we also be able to clear immigration online? No, didn't think so, we'll still have to queue for hours.

Is that because Brown Envelopes are available in India?

BBC not working? Every cloud has a silver lining!

"His identity has not been revealed" But apparently everything else has!

Not just farmers.

Hey Vivian, be careful to not let the door hit you on the way out.

Lammy's previous personal attacks on Donald Trump show that Lammy is unsuited for office. The fact that Starmer failed to recognise this shows a similar failing. The UK being represented on the World Stage by such inadequate characters is more akin to what would be expected in a banana republic. Oh, hang on....

Abbott? Or maybe Costello?

On another occasion, whilst walking opposite Royal Garden plaza, I was receiving persistent unwanted attention from one who was probably showing off to "colleagues" . A loud "mai ow" (loud enough for his friends across the road to hear) and he just scuttled away without any fuss. These people are unpredictable.

Not always. Sometimes these troubled individuals will instigate a confrontation for something which exists only in their troubled minds. I was attacked by one in the middle of Walking Street Pattaya - as far as I can guess he/she/it/whatever just ran out of a bar and hit me, AFAIK I'd never seen him/her/it/whatever before in my life. Mistaken identity? Imagined I'd looked at him/her/it/whatever the "wrong way"? Just in a bad mood? I have no idea. I felt it best not to engage in any way as these always seem to fight in groups, I just kept walking.

Wow! Just Wow! I wonder who funded that "decision".

Great way to transport the mattress. It not only acts as a sun-shade for the rider, making it easier for him to watch videos on his phone while riding, it would also keep him dry when it rains. It's all good! 🤣 🤣 🤣

France is lost.
