Why not call them what they actually are - Kathoey.

But is this actually true, spidermike007? 🤔

I wish I could give your post a "shocked" emoji but there isn't one available here. This was not my experience of Sri Lanka at all. Perhaps it was different/better in the early 1970s. I went there on a 9-day trip organised for airline staff. It was my very first long-haul trip. Yes, there was poverty, yes there was begging, but it's the same in a lot of countries.

Brit drug smugglers have been apprehended at Koh Samui airport recently with suitcases full of hash.

I beat you staying in Sri Lanka by 10 years (early 1970s). It was not an H-Hole. Far from it. I had a most enjoyable holiday in a "nicer hotel". Nothing wrong with the place. Just don't get involved in drug smuggling.

No. This story's too tacky even for him.

If you had read the articles you would have known that they had to break into his room.

Likely he and his family are Catholic as he is from the Republic of Ireland.

Yes, but the Irish Republic is not.

The Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust?

Practice what you preach, Frank. Up thread you referred to two people as c***s. Both of them read this forum.

Most of the deaths were in Chiang Mai, weren't they? The two Canadian sisters died on Koh Phi Phi. The cause in all cases was suspected to be toxic chemical spray used to kill bed bugs.

Frank whatsisname Koh Tao apologist doesn't want to say, apart from using obscenities to describe them, but I know who they are. 🙂

Thanks. I didn't know there had been another tourist death just prior to the Irish lad's.

I was wondering that too.

A more accurate description is a "Black Comedy". Yes, it is very funny in a dark way. I've seen both Season 1 and 2 and look forward to Season 3.

It's quite possible their drinks were spiked. The fact that the two of them passed out and were unable to be revived is an indication.

Did the thought even enter your head that these two girls might have had their drinks spiked?

Pretty obvious from the angle of the girl's top.

On my first visit to Phuket in 1983, I told the waiter I liked spicy food because I had grown up on Vindaloo curries. The cook decided to play a prank on two unsuspecting tourists and overdid it with the chilies. Well, it nearly blew our heads off but we survived with no ill effects. We were told they were "mouse sh*t" chilies. Now we can't get enough of them. This woman is obviously a wimp and is suing for suing's sake. Her name sounds Indian too. Obviously she doesn't like her native cuisine.

Most likely Italian. Why comment on her size? 🙄
