"Pattaya Tourist Police round-up Ladyboy’s on Walking Street"

There it is again, that image of Tourist Police riding wild horses, cracking whips, six-guns a-blazing, chasing ladyboys down Walking Street towards the Police Station corral, tourists madly jumping out the way of the chaos.......................

Go well with a clip of Rawhide, with Frankie Laine singin' about it....

A friend had an AIS payg sim for many years, went to register it at AIS office in Central Pattaya store, they replaced the sim/registration at no extra cost. Suspect someone at DTAC either is not aware of changing procedures or is working a flanker

Too high up the food chain I guess??

She was the courier, how much investigation has gone in to finding the supplier.

Or is no investigation required on that score?

You could also try CAT Phonecard, available at CAT offices, can get top-up at 7-11/FMart, I think 200 and 500 baht, much the same as Tookdee prices I believe, first card is valid for one year, any not used/top up by then is forfeited.

They're going to stop staff from drinking on duty, yet they banned the travelling public from drinking alcohol just a few days after this tragic event happened?? Abnyone with CDF can see something amiss here.

Their trains keep falling off two rails, how the heck are they going to manage with just one?????

From 25 Dec to 3 Jan is not 7 days. Seven Dangerous Days of Thai New Year begins on 29 Dec and ends on the 4th. Guess Phuket didn't get the memo.

Upena thanks for that, saves me asking when it starts/ends.

"Motorists warned to drive carefully during New Year's festival"

Especially so when driving Lamborghinis.

But only if they're orange...... with no number plates....

Mickey Mouse Railways here we come, or is it Rickey Rouse..?

This is getting ridiculous, it's nothing more than out and out lying, and I hope the British Ambassador and others call them out on it for once.

Do you seriously think Mr. K**t is going to do that???

Oh, I forgot... THEY are again trying to stop selling alcohol over New year. How stoopid of me!!!

When are the breweries going to give their New Year "gift"????

I have been using WiFi from my neighbour's set-up (TOT), and recently instead of this, we changed to LAN cabling. Problem is when I open my laptop, the internet starts automatically, or else I have to disconnect the LAN cable. Previously I have used LAN, and this was controlled by desktop application, as was the WiFi. I cannot find any way to restore the LAN to this, can any IT guys there help me please? I have tried to make a new connection but it doesn't work, line is still open. Thanks people....

Just making a comment about an ongoing problem that could be dangerous to pedestrians on a public platform my friend

While they're at it, they could try fixing the water leak outside of 'Gecko' on Suk, been pissing out water for months, maybe years????

You should find a drop down menu at the bottom right of the page where you can change the language.

Thanks Lausie, found it now stands at 23096 signatures

CurlyWatt, pls let us know how you got on at Central Festival or did you luck out??

Come on everyone on TV .. if you want to be sure about this then we need 10,000 sigs to move on it to petition the British Embassy and British government for another independent investigation, all people want is real justice and closure for David and Hannahs families, that means 100% without doubt .... get enough voices and the UK gov will have to open an investigation if they havnt already behind closed doors.

We can make a difference for once, all it takes are for good people to do something....

Please Moderators im asking you on behalf of many do the right thing and let this link stay.

When I attempt to get to change.org site, it comes up in Thai, not sure what the fields are for, I want to sign but not sure how to get the petition bit in English? Can somebody pls tell me, thanks, Commo

Have heard this some time ago from a close friend and his wife. Take a pic of your wife sitting on the bed, then get her to take one of you likewise, take to the voyeurs in Imm, and say you were too shy to employ a photographer to take pics of you together in such intimate surroundings?????

Mr. Kent went on to praise the Royal Thai Police in solving the case and have shown exemplary professionalism as a crime fighting unit.

People from the UK must be so proud of their ambassador to Thailand.

Who is he trying to kid?? Perhaps the last two letters of his surname are correct.....

I been to the Vegetarian Festival before in Phuket. Lots of fun.

So what will be going on in Pattaya?

How many days?

No piercing parades here. In other words, tame and boring.

Diana Dragon in Soi Diana has a veggie stall outside at the moment (45baht) I don't know what it's like myself, but a friend said not very good and whatever he had was tooooo much chili.

How about a motorcycle-free day as well????

If I am reading and understanding this correctly I just don't understand how anybody can even consider going the wrong way on this overpass. It is two tight lanes and absolutely no space for a motorbike coming the wrong way. How did they even get on it and more to the point why? Defies all belief.

Same here, I don't understand how to even access the ramp from the wrong direction. You would have had to ride the wrong way on the side of the road from Chonburi direction towards Pattaya, then cross two lanes to get to the tight ramp. Total idiocy. I hope Darwin Awards (http://www.darwinawards.com/ and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darwin_Awards ) picks this up for "honorable mentions" (since no one actually died).

The ramp can be seen on Google Maps Street View. The ramp has the "no motocycles, bicycles and trucks" sign on the northbound entrance, but I guess it should need one also at the opposite end (for idiots) ?

I am not sure, but if they entered via the railway road on the EXIT ramp, then they would be facing the oncoming traffic so wld be approaching the overpass bend on that side of the road??

Wait for a rash of " take my wife " pleas and oh so many of them will be genuine

Damn! you beat me to it, and here I am with a second-hand wife!!!!!!

@ ThaidDown.  PERFECT!  Thank You!

Perhaps if just once...the press and even TV published the SOLUTION (as you have) and stopped bitching about the problem ... it would go SO much more easily!

Well done.  Good on ya' .... much appreciated !!
