To be honest, it is probably even less than that 🥲

I think there's a chance purely due to the influence of red bull (Thai owned) on the sport. Money talks. I'd have liked to see the Bangkok street circuit happen, but they would never allow this event near their royal or ancient buildings /monuments. If it were to be anywhere else I don't see it having the appeal to get it on the calendar. 

So who is paying for this new airport that only the super rich will ever use? And do the super rich really holiday in Hua Hin?

Maybe they all come flocking to see Rajabhakti Park.

Hey, alien365, you come in peace but I'm bloody angry, really angry, we are never going to agree. 

 

 

I'm saying that you shouldn't be encouraging violence. Does that not tell you that I wish for peace? I agree with the police's initial decision. Just both say sorry and move on as no harm was done, yet many are out for blood/want a pound of flesh. 

I agree that we'll no doubt have to agree to disagree, and as adults I'm sure we can do that. I don't have any block list as I think it's important to see all views, not just ones that say what I want to hear.

What's wrong with you, are you on medication or been drinking? 

 

How about I kick you in the back without warning, then start screaming at you like a mad man, I'm sure you would take it on the chin. 😂

 

Just forget I said anything. Self reflection seems impossible for you.

Some young German tourists/ roamers have rent a villa opposite us, our thai neighbours have complained,  we have complained, the music is still loud, nearly every night many germans coming to villa, cannabis smell, what can my thai girlfriend do ?

Have you spoke to them? Do you know how long they will be there for? Sometimes we let it slide, other times we call the police. Other times we may use it as an opportunity to go away for a few nights. I don't have any experience of never ending noise though, but the police, head of the village or landlord would probably need to be informed if the Germans are causing such inconvenience.

Why are you sticking up for this goose? 

 

He attacked 2 lovely ladies, sitting peacefully, minding their own business, resting after I'd say a very stressful, nerve racking day at the local hospital or similar. 

 

NO BLOODY EXCUSE FOR HIS SCHOOL BOY BEHAVIOR. 

 

If you know the Swiss fool, tell him he needs to get some therapy, he obviously has mental health issues. 

 

 

Once again, at what point am I sticking up for him? I am calling you out as you posted a big picture of him telling people to run him over. Is that not also schoolboy behaviour? 

And to repeat myself one more time, I am not him, live anywhere near Phuket or even hang out with westerners for that matter.

Take off your rose colored glasses and get back on your meds maybe it will improve your eyesight and logic.

 

Swiss Fat Boy -I was completely out of line and I want to extend my heartfelt apologies to the women and offer them a few nights in my rental at my expense. I have been very stressed  but that is not an excuse.

Alien 365   -    I was wrong .

What was I wrong about exactly? I don't understand how people don't realize that I am not defending him. He can be wrong and the lady can make a bigger scene about the issue than it is. They are not mutually exclusive. What I am getting at, which unfortunately seems to be taking over this thread, is that people are ridiculously judgmental on here. You are judge jury and executioner before hearing all of the facts. It's not going to make me any friends, but sometimes hearing the truth hurts. Sure the guy was wrong, he acted like a complete idiot, but the woman has made this what to me is a nothing event, and my opinion wont change on that, in to something national. That was my thought at the start of the thread and remains the case now after seeing the video. A storm in a teacup.

Green Elephant Sanctuary Park near Surin Beach in the Thalang district of Phuket

 

If you see this creep, run him over please. 

 

 

Okay. I'll bite. Have you ever acted in a way that you are not proud of? Was that your true character or did you make an excuse for your actions (had a tough time recently, financial worries, relationship worries etc)? Do you deserve to have people promoting causing seriously bodily injury or even death to you because of that moment?

I'm not perfect and I don't expect anyone else to be, but some posters on here must never have put a foot wrong in their lives based on their over the top reactions to something as trivial as this.

I'd expect this man regrets his actions and knows he should have approached it differently now. If he doesn't then that says a lot about him.

Imagine if a Thai had done it and then said they tripped. People like alien365 would be up in arms saying Thais don't take responsibility, "fragile egos" etc etc blah blah. Pathetic hypocrites of the highest order.

Check through all of my previous messages on different threads and point out where I have said anything to the like. I don't join baying mobs like others. Its quite ironic that I get called a hypocrite when posters are spewing vitriol at the man who caused no actual harm by wishing harm on him (being beaten up by the doctors boyfriend, please run him over etc).

So, what's your take now? I notice you didn't answer.

My response is that the woman is on a mission to make the man pay for her losing face. It was still effectively a nothing incident. She was not injured in the slightest. 

After watching his video I believe his reaction was over the top which I don't condone, but I still fail to see where this physical assault is.

@alien365 would love to know your spin on this and how it was the Thai lady's fault. After all a farang could not behave in such a manner.

His defence was he "slipped". Did he?

@alien365 how exactly did she provoke this?

I never said it was not his fault. I meant we needed to hear more than one side of the story before making judgements. I hate the 'guilty until proven innocent mob'. Whether it's a westerner, Thai, man, woman or even people I don't like, it doesn't matter.

WTH are you talking about ?  You are the Swiss guy aren't you?  You think you can push women because they are sitting on steps by the beach ""smear the couple" " pictures of injuries " ?     You don't even own the property too bad her boyfriend didn't knock you out.

I think you need to get back on your medication if you think that's the case and also take your rose tinted glasses off. Do you seriously believe everything a person says without any evidence at all? If so, you are a dangerous person, not me.

"no doubt it was a push"   Are you the Swiss guy ?If so you are a coward ,lose weight .  

If you're not the Swiss guy you're pathetic ,  a push is assault      IDGAF what cuts it with you.

Next you'll be saying hurting your feelings is assault. If I was in the doctors shoes and got pushed for sitting on someone's private property I'd apologise and feel bad for doing wrong.

You clearly do care what I think or you wouldn't have got your knickers in a twist. 

When I think of Hua Hin I think of a nice beach that is difficult to get on due to the hotels right on the front and the big main road running through the center of it full of traffic. Its too busy and crammed for a beach getaway. 

Why don't they save everyone the hassle and just add speed bumps? I hate it when traffic lights are added that do not consider the amount of traffic at a junction. Slow them down. A simple roundabout would also solve the issue if people cared enough to use them properly.

Apparently no alcohol was served at the concert, and many were also complaining about there being too many Chinese present. 

I took about 5,000 baht in 10 baht coins to ttb and the lady counted every single one of them. I wasn't expecting that in this day and age. What made things worse is that for every 100 baht (I think), she had to put them in the small plastic bags. I just give them to the in laws now to spend at the local market.

As soon as the chicken will go near them, they are safe to move without handshoes.

 

Do you also call footwear feet gloves? 

Back to the topic though the main place I see centipedes is around the sandals/shoes outside. I always give them a quick kick in case one is hiding. I learned quickly not to pick the shoes up as an adult one went for me. I've found them very difficult to kill. I usually use a hoe, but it's still difficult to detach the head.

Kai Pannnipa sang a lot of northern songs, not heard from her for a long time, very famous classic.

 

 

there is always lovely Luktarn from Chiang Mai, although don't recall her singing any northern type song.

 

 

Thanks for the suggestions Proton. As I live in Central Thailand, nobody really knows of a Northern music scene as such. With quite a few expats living in that area I hope some will be able to explain further. Even isaan music is not that popular in my province, but I'm finding lots of that on YouTube. 

As you seem really into your music and you have shared a few of her songs, here's a cover of a classic that I think Lamyai sings very well. She also looks very cute.
