You know all this "charity work" you guys are slamming can pay off sometimes

Just remember what happened to Martha Stewart, Nancy.

Seems like you've been "Lawyered".

Kamnan Poh was an extremely infamous character. If he is in prison he will undoubtedly have privileges.

I wouldn't recommend visiting him.

Grace Jones?

Hey Daniel how did your meet with Cypress go?

He hasn't been around for a while. Is he eating through a straw now?

JT has rocketed up to 47 votes. Must be more than 47 gays on this forum. The LB vote must be in the 1000's.

I don't think the jokes are necessarily in bad taste they are more of a knee jerk reaction to I'm glad that wasn't me.

No dude .... they WERE in bad taste .... I can't wait to get back to Thailand

I don't think you understood the statement properly.

People die here all the time in strange circumstances and making jokes is some people's way of relieving the stress of thinking, the next one could be me.

Hope you can try to understand that.

I don't think the jokes are necessarily in bad taste they are more of a knee jerk reaction to I'm glad that wasn't me.

If there is a profit in it for you report it. Otherwise walk away. End of.

How many bars are there in Pattaya? +500 I think so it should be possible to find another watering hole.

On most bars beer taps it's written how much they cost a pop, 1 tap for each beer and it's difficult to cheat too.

If I encounter cheating I would just pay and leave, it's not wort it man.

Thais are not only cheating tourists, some nasty people will cheat on everybody, money is the only thing they care about, they don't care how they "earn" them.

Grasshopper you have reached the next stage of enlightenment Pass on your knowledge and do not receive a kicking over a few baht.

Bua Khao means White Lotus Flower. Soi Bua Khao could not be further removed from it's name.

Just post the audio clip here. Unless he's talking dirty of course.

I think we should have a poll to decide who's in charge of the polls.

I think we should have a staff not a poll

There's only one thing worse than losing and that's losing miserably.

Is Mr. Bitey pussy whipped?

Benq. Please add motorbike shops and motorbikes with homemade sidecars to your list.

Not wearing a helmet, driving at high speeds, crap roads ... yep that's the right combination to kill yourself.

Off-duty cop carrying a gun ... why?

Taking it home with him?

Yes, many thought so, also many chicks that came to pick up a young man

So you were a man whore and a rent boy?

No, German.

Eventually I took the pickups in Covent Garden as a joke. They always ended up in front of this judge who fined me 1/2 quid and told me nothing would happen to me if I don't pay the fine. I never paid, and nothing really happened

I have learned that intolerance and prejudices go hand in hand.

BTW: what sexual hangups?

They probably thought you were a rent boy.

NancyL and Costas are neck and neck, even with a major political scandal just yesterday. This really is an exciting race.

Please Explain ?

Nancy is a secret lemonade drinker. All the Charity Gala Dinners have taken their toll.

Here we go again. Grab 100 baht of everyone and let them off with a "Stern Warning". Why don't the Cops intern them in Buriram or somewhere over the holidays.

we don't have any beaches in Buri Ram

I'm sure they'll adapt. Maybe they'll take over the bus station.

That is sad.

Makes me cringe everyday seeing people not wearing helmets.

Don't you think they should simply come out and make it officially illegal to ride on a motorbike or scooter without a helmet, as rider OR passenger (or one of the, up to, 4 passengers I have seen here! ) to finally get rid of any "grey areas" or "interpretations" of the law by our wonderful BIB?

Of course if they did that then the BIB could not then decide to unilaterally run any "enforcement periods" to help top up the funds for the weekend, as is often seen outside Pattaya Police Station on Beach Road!

It just serves to reinforce the corrupt practices of our fantastic public protectors.

Kinda poetic that it was a gun-carrying, "un" bone domed off duty copper to bring it to our attention though!

Probably the most useful and selfless service he has provided since being a "law enforcer".

Anyone who rides a bike without a helmet is a fool. Just because they are driving slowly doesn't matter. I would be happy for a 1000 baht plus fine to be implemented.

Helmets should also be checked for their age and damage and be destroyed by the Police if they don't comply.

As I said the Scandi Governments have been very progressive in offering retirement options in Thailand for their senior citizens.

There are various Scandi housing developments around and they prefer to live in a family atmosphere.

They are an insular people, most of them don't socialize outside their own group much.

They don't encourage Germans and Brits etc. staying there, getting drunk and bringing girls back at all hours.

Oh-ho so do you think the Scandi's are better regarding birds and booze?

As I said before some older Scandi's can't speak English very well and yes they often stay in groups where they know each other well.

I was often out with such a group when I lived on Phuket and what a bunch of "old bitches" they were and they were always talking bad about you when you were not there.

I prefer mixed nationalities now after being an expat for over 12 years and learned my lessons.

I believe we were talking about the Scandi gated communities. The single guys or ones with Thai GF's stick with their own circle. I think it's because no one can understand their jokes.

There's a shop next to the Supermarket at junction of Theprassit and Pratumnak Hill.

You need the ceramic film it's very good but expensive.
