  1. I hate them. They are increasing in frequency, and are an unpleasant disruption.
  2. Drunken idiots in trouble well after midnight. Hardly news.
  3. The choice and quality of food in the Philippines is nothing like as good as it is in Thailand. The people are friendly enough, but less interesting. Addituonally i have been mugged twice in metro Manila, not once in Thailand. Take a good look before making a final decision.
  4. Good for him, but I fear for their welfare. Thailand claims to be a Buddhist country but, nevertheless, most Thais eat animals.
  5. Not so sure. He was previously sentenced to 2 years in jail, and had to run away to Dubai to avoid serving time.
  6. Looks as though he may be heading back to Dubai before long. Already annoyinga lot of people.
  7. Disgusting. There very little Buddhism in Thailand, only idolatry.
  8. Yes indeed. He figured that previously, but then skulked off to Dubai.
  9. We all know that already. It is what it is. Put up with it, or go away.
  10. Far too much noise on this subject, mainly from those seeking to make money from selling their advice.
  11. The late 1960s/early 1970s. Before than it was delightful.
  12. In a short time since his return from Dubai, to which he ran away to avoid a 2 year jail sentence, he has already managed to make a host of new enemies.
  13. Maybe shower more often.
  14. Never once happened to me in over 60 years.
  15. A lot of people have had enough of the Tories, understandably, but then the famous picture of Starmer and Rayner taking the knee to the BLM emerges..
  16. The PM is out of his depth. He has no idea of the games the jail runaway from Dubai is playing.
  17. If you think Anutin is as anti-expat as Thaksin you are seriously mis-informed.
  18. Still the land of smiles by comparison with most other countries, in my opinion.
  19. Best thing the Tories can do is to keep circulating the picture of Starmer and Raynor taking the knee to BLM.
  20. Cross and double-cross going on. The guy from Dubai, who ran away to avoid a two year jail sentence for bribery, is back and playing his old games. PM out of his depth.
  21. How things have changed. Went to Samui for the first time in 1980 with my wife. No bars, no roads. Rented two hammocks by the beach for 10 baht each. Paradise.
  22. Far too many people already. When I was born, in 1941, the world population was under 3 billion. It is now over 8 billion, and growing at an even faster rate. Unpleasant and unsustainable. Problem is, no one wants to talk about it, preferring endless verbage on climate change.
  23. If, I repeat if, it is true that the Brits didn't pay their bill they were asking for trouble. The bar employees will be charged for whatever amount is involved.
  24. Is it right that, if Trump is found guilty, the appeal process could go on for years ?
