Good points. Maybe I've been around too long..

In summary, I first visited Thailand in 1962, business and private visits during the 1970s, lived and worked here during the 1980s, married to Thai lady in 1990, retired to Thailand, in 1993 where I have lived with my wife ever since. Thank you so much for your informative message, and have a nice day.

Thanks for posting the video. Having studied it many times poor Mr Wright's actions still remain a mystery. He appears to be looking over a well constructed steel fence, having just arrived at that point and not, apparently, having previously dropped an item into the drainage hole. Then, for some reason,he goes to the end of the fenced off area, climbs, over the fence, and falls down the hole. Maybe he dropped an item into the hole earlier than indicated in the video and returned there some time later to retrieve it. A search of the contents of the drainage hole may help to explain what was in his mind at the time.

The dishonest reporting of poll numbers during the US election has not encouraged people to trust the MSM.

Well said.

Stop blaming Thailand. While not up to some first world standards the infrastructure in Thailand in terms of roads, rail. airports. hotels, offices, communications etc. is good. In my own home country, so called first world, the infrastrucure is creaking to put it mildly. Main roads are potholed and the trains seldom run on time. Having said that, very sorry for Mr. Wright, and his family and friends. RIP.

Maybe they could now focus on real crimes such as murder, robbery and rape.

Give it a rest for heaven's sake.

Can't think of an inspired answer, only, whatever it takes..

Somewhat premature. Trump hasn't taken office yet. After a year or so we will be able to judge.

In 83 years I have heard the apposite expression 'sore losers' many times but never, until now, 'sore winners'. Kindly explain.

Article 'Based on a report by New Republic'. In other words, best ignored.

The Tories were bad enough, but this lot are even worse.

Have a nice day.

Her 'underlying concern for the safety of women' is touching, however this guy's behaviour, while extremely rude and odd, is not actually hurting anybody.
