  1. No, he doesn't mean that - he understands the case without proper evidence - just hang her and ask questions later!! Another one of his bigoted remarks!
  2. Your question is framed in a way that strongly suggests you think so! Not me, Not all men are the same wherever they come from! Try again!
  3. Did it occur to you that pedestrians are Thai as well, except when they are driving - the same in fact!
  4. Plenty of evidence on here every day that shows clearly that the negatives are not the preserve of the older ones!
  5. The old-fashioned but very effective system in UK years ago was: "bobbies on the beat!" and much more effective than "Bobbies sitting in the Office" all day! Unfortunately, not much prevention, only around later to pick up the pieces! Amazing what on-the-ground observations about many aspects matters untoward can be made, especially in areas prone to such things: Pattaya and Phuket spring to mind as areas of greatest need!
  6. Shows how much I know!! I had to click just to discover the topic!!
  7. My driving test was in the UK in 1969 - on the roads! I had verbal questions to answer while on my test re the Highway code. No written test required! I passed first time!
  8. Yes, I have taken that test as well - it was at the back of the Licence Office - but it wasn't on Thai roads in real life normal traffic conditions.
  9. The written test is not as important as a test of actual driving skill and behaviour on the roads, particularly for your own citizens. What about that DLT?
  10. I sympathise with your feelings but I have no such feelings. I think some of the odds in my favour are that I don't live in Bangkok, Phuket or Pattaya! Cost of living has increased but not out of my range; as you say, inflation is in all countries. The number of times I am subjected to dual pricing is not enough for me to see at as a general problem! The "Thai Smile" exists for me wherever I go!! Yesterday, in a large local store, I was in a queue at the cash desk where the customer in front of me was messing about on her phone. The Cashier was getting frustrated. When the Customer left, she cashed up my stuff and attempted to tell me in English the cost. I know I had bought about B600 worth but I said as a question, "Neung ruy ha sip baht". The smile I got was beautiful! I don't claim it made her day, but It helped in a moment of her irritation! I perform this silly act often at the till. It really is a boring job they have! Is the grass greener in Vietnam? Or anywhere else for that matter!
  11. I had no choice about reading it, I had a notification to that effect and realised after reading it, could only conclude as to its silliness!
  12. Obviously I don't take medical advice from this Forum with one or two exceptions, (none of which are you), or from US Presidents, present or recent past!
  13. It isn't nonsense! YOU are the nonsense!
