  1. We did 1 million Dowry but only for her to show face. I got all the money back after the wedding. My in-laws were very savvy to realise that that they would be much better off in the long-term than taking the Sinsod. ????
  2. I think you missed the point. The OP was talking about the war veteran but it could of equally applied to Biden ????
  3. Why blame the police when it's the drivers at fault? That's like me saying, I killed someone someone because the police weren't there to stop me People have to take personal accountability for their actions, in this case they didn't and it cost them their lives. I do believe that stronger enforcement / media messages would help and it pains me to say it but more speed cameras with heavier fines.
  4. Yes probably at the malls. Remember, it's Chonburi, not Pattaya per se. You probably don't see them Once again another report comes out without any explanation as to how they get to the figures although my guess is credit card sales. I'm a tourist, I use cash, probably spent upwards of 80k or so in a week, if this is the case then I'm not counted. Do I even exist ?
  5. Sod the kid, what we all want to know is what happened to the cat? It got venom in its eyes poor thing...
  6. Travelling westwards, is certainly more expensive particuarly on the business routes. I just booked a business class trip to Seattle for £8k. I flew to Thailand in FC for £5k with Thai who are generally the most expensive.
  7. As I see it, there's still not nearly enough metal in the sky versus pre-covid. Flights get filled up quickly therefore airlines are able to hike their prices to profit on it. The cost of my flight a few weeks ago was over 100% more expensive than in 2019.
  8. More of the same then. One step forward, two steps back.
  9. While "face" is more important than justice, Thailand will never move forward.
  10. Here is the link to the source. It's a little smoke & mirrors in how they calculate the figures https://travelness.com/most-visited-cities-in-the-world
  11. Got to say, the gang got a good return of 10million baht 60 bikes = 166,667 baht each. You can buy a new bike, top of the range for 100,000 baht Buyers beware ????
  12. And yet the UK Government doesn't increase your pension in line with UK citizens because you're living overseas...
  13. So he is guilty then ? Without trial ?
  14. Good advise and make sure she knows that if the relationship is going to progress you want to get to know her better at a slower pace - Think with the big head not the little one. If anything, it will be fun but probably boring but also an experience of REAL life in Thailand.
  15. Absolutely. If anyone REALLY wants to be put off their food, watch how they make sausages.
  16. I assume that the minor is male. All the articles I've read have been careful not to name the sex.
  17. Transferred?!....What's the point? Surely a stronger message whould be to sack them
  18. Nope never seen one.... My policy states that they won't cover for = "Alcohol, drug or solvent abuse/misuse: such as drinking so much alcohol that your judgement is seriously affected"
  19. While the cyclist was an idiot, I put more blame on the truck. He should have slowed down enough to assess the situation.
  20. Doesn't that happen in cultures all around the world. It's probably why over 1 in 3 marriages fail. I married my wife because she is a nice, caring and intellectually competent woman. Sure, she's good looking but I realise looks fade (mind did at 15!) and I wanted someone who I could live the rest of my life with. IMHO Thai women do not marry based on looks, they marry for security, just like most women around the world.
  21. Totally agree. I've been married a mere 4 years but I don't think we have ever had an arguement. Mind you, I'm dreading the day we do as she is likely to go nuclear ????
  22. True, but you can say the same about most large airports, O'Hare, Heathrow etc. BKK does at least have moving walkways.
