Starmer said he “trusts” Trump as UK and France work on a plan to bring an end to the war
I think the folks in Europe will have a wider approach. Good luck to them hope they get it done. Just curious why they have waited 3 years.

British Tourist Knocked Out by Pattaya Club Bouncer
Sounds like the Brit thought he was a tough guy and confronted the guard. Seems the guard responded appropriately in defense and punched his lights out. Well deserved, hopefully a good lesson for other idiots out there.

Hua Hin is close to Bangkok they say
I visit HH every few months. The construction is a big negative and very dangerous. Last trip there was a cement barrier that had been some how moved and was sitting in the right lane. Lots of trucks and heavy traffic. The time you drive is key. Last time I left at 3:30 am and it took a little over 2 hours to get to BKK.

Best KFC
KFC is terrible here. I believe it is the cheap frying oil they use tastes nothing like other countries and seems much greasier here. Makes me want to vomit. McDonald's chicken here is better then KFC.

A lot of it is fake they buy subs, views, likes, etc. And, don't be fooled several are low lifes have criminal records some have admitted to this. There is some good content on YT, but watching these people in bars or exploiting Thai people is obnoxious.

Bangkok Condo Raided Over Illegal Daily Rentals and Cannabis Use
Abnb are much cheaper then hotels in Bangkok now I use them all the time. In many cases, 1/3 the cost. I have never had a major problem with 22 Abnb times I rented here. One time the internet went out the host had it fixed the next day. Plus, kitchens and larger frig. are the norm. Regarding the thread, in typical Thai fashion I bet they crack down for a few weeks then things will be back to the way they were.

Security Guards and their whistles.
There is a shopping/restaurant area in Chiang mai nice place to sit for lunch. But, two guards constantly blowing their whistles for what seems no reason only way to get thru it is wear noise canceled headphones. It is annoying and way over done. Yes, I believe some power trip in many cases unnecessary.
