I wouldn't go because it's usually full of 70-80 year old men whinging that bar prices have gone up by 2 baht, their pensions are frozen, and that their 21-year-old hooker GF has left them for pastures new, and the whole place smells of stale urine.

Nah, it can't be, he can't even spell Uttaradit.🤣

I get it all the time, but it's usually in Nana Plaza or Patpong.

So that's why they keep stopping me when they've X-rayed below my belt.

Yeah, they are called Thai bar-girls!

I would love to have seen that and been there to witness the look on Thai faces, Kenyans just popped in for a warm-up and waltzed off with every cash prize.........CLASS!......🤣

As it should be!

I saw this going on very publicly in the bars in Ho Chi Minh. I actually wondered what they were doing. It seemed a big thing in the bars down there.

Are we talking about them?

I have just checked on the British Government website and British nationals can enter into a civil partnership with a Thai and even get married at the British Embassy in Hanoi, Vietnam. There are conditions and the process takes about 21 days, and you must remain in Vietnam during this time. Neither of these two options are possible at the British Embassy in Bangkok. This is what I was getting at. So I apologize to myself, I was right.

OK, my error there. I do remember a while ago now, a gay guy who went to Vietnam to perform a civil partnership with a Thai at the British Embassy, because he said he was unable to do this in Thailand. So, maybe that's where I got my wires crossed.

Absolutely appalling. RIP is just not enough, so sad and on a so-called joyous day. How sad for the families. The drunk driver wants hammering with double murder, because murder is knowing you are being reckless and knowing, and not caring that your actions would end in the deaths of others. And this clown is driving a registered taxi

Load of old macaroni, A waste of a day, a waste of flowers and dresses. Signing registers of weddings that are not valid. They have been promising to recognize same sex unions for years, all wind and pi$$, even Vietnam recognizes them.

No need to be confused, it signifies nothing as same-sex marriages are not recognized by the Thai authorities who have been fudging this issue for years. They pretend to be liberal and tolerant only.

To say this has become a boring subject is an understatement, and reporters are just now over egging the pudding for a hardly newsworthy story. An ankle bracelet is placed on offenders to make sure you can monitor their movements, the purpose of which is to stop repeat offending and keep a track on them. In Thaksin's case, it is hardly relevant. He's not going to become a cat burglar with alleged health issues and over 70 years old. An ankle monitoring device would be a complete waste of time. They've made no secret of the fact he has received preferential treatment in the extreme, why start implementing stupid restrictions now. He's hardly going to flee the country, he spent 16 years getting back in.

They're the ones who sell the rose-coloured glasses.

Hope you are just speaking for yourself!

What???? Are you for real?

I think foreigners will be way down his list of priorities for the next few years.

Be prepared for a sudden, dramatic recovery in his health. Now get ready to be bombarded in the press to get his sister back to Thailand. Let's see him, at every photo opportunity giving solemn Wais to senior monks, pictures of the King, any minister that will listen until he takes charge again, and the public, who his party sold out. Stomach turning, the hypocrisy and nepotism that goes on in this country, without so much as a red face.

To obtain a driving licence you must provide proof such as previous licence, birth certificate, passports etc. Having a ready-made fake driving licence with fake name, means where a driving licence is accepted as proof of ID, (most places) is that you have already done the above process. It can enable the crook to get further IDs, open bank accounts under the new name etc, then you can move on to other false documents, and create a new persona.

I take it you won't be buying anybody anything?

Why not just join the Bridge club, play snooker, or go walking? Cheaper and no stress.

Family and extended family are the worst for busybodies, and also for coming up with get rich quick schemes that they want somebody else to fund. In this case......YOU! You have to be tough as old boots to take on the piranha pack!........ Fortunately, mine is!

Thousands of bars in Pattaya, and they change hands every year or so, after owners crash and burn with leases they cannot afford. The guy is making a YouTube video and trying to say that the 200K might get some mug a sixth of his bar that is already facing big problems. By the look of it, he's basing it on the money he has spent and dividing it by six to get roughly 200K THB. A sixth of a bar for 200K, they may as well wait until it goes bust. How much does he think he will get for second hand fixtures and fittings? He goes on to say he doesn't want to discuss his personal stuff, as though nobody on YouTube who is a regular in Pattaya could possibly guess. His best bet is to call it a day, get back to OZ and get working.
