Definitely needs a good shag if she could keep her mouth shut for long enough - that should be a good start for her blasphemy laws and the twitter police

Hahaha very true by the time I get back to the UK if it is before Reform get in it will be an offshoot of the Islamic State by that point anyways

It's a shameless half-hearted attempt to win minority votes for the next election now that Reform are polling ahead of them and are hopefully going to batter them in the next election

Why don't we just create an anti-british council and get it over with

Deportation for him would be more preferable

Stupid cow

Must have been doing a reasonable rate of knots both motorbikes look totally trashed

Slightly heartening in being from the UK, I thought it was only the UK that gave all our money away to pointless causes nothing to do with our own country.

Nah this one looks about 100 kilos lighter

Yeah good riddance to lardy

That ship has already sailed

Hahaha largely! So of it is a little bit true? 🙂

Because they are not actually dead?

Half of my life spent in my home county and half (give or take here) and have to admit that sadly you are correct, I love this country more than anything, it might be the LOS, and the land of reinventing yourself but if you are not prepared for it will also be the land to chew you up and spit you out. I am still holding out hope until I see an official report of the fate of this guy rather than from some local newspaper using copy and paste and unverified quotes. It is a sht situation and the mystery just increases with the lack of credible and verifiable information with this situation.

Hi @elektrified do you have a link to the Thai news report I'll get my misses to read it to me my Thai reading is atrocious!

How?

To continue the conspiracy theories do you not think Thai news outlets would have reported this if there was a foreigner found dead in their country? I know they don't like bad publicity but not very often a dead farang goes under the radar and gets reported by a tiny local newspaper in England first that has no information in the story about the circumstances around his misadventure other than a copy and paste of the just giving site and an unconfirmed statement from the foreign office? I have even got my misses on the case reading all Thai language news sites and keeping up with her Facebook and TikTok which she is good at and she has found nowt!

Yes and as I said RIP to the guy I ventured out here at pretty much exactly the same age it resonates with me which is why I have followed it so closely. I am guessing there is no official statement as yet as they prefer to keep the news local out of respect to the family. I think the longer I have lived in Thailand the more cynical I have become, but have genuine feelings about this story, and the guy was from a few miles away from where my brother lives.

The just-giving page also looks a little sketchy there is no mention of who the person requesting the money was to him https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/julie-nolan-day1 These guys only left 20 quid on the page and have the same surname, if my family dies I am giving them more than 20 quid, hopefully it is just me being cynical, as I still hold out hope until it is confirmed that he has met misadventure rather than speculative assumptions.

What media is reporting it @Goinghomesoon? I know ChatGPT doesnt know everything but says the below only suggesting unverified reports

Yeah @Goinghomesoon sort of assumed that with a previous poster showing the family on just giving. If that is the case extremely sad for his family and RIP the dude. I have trawled the internet as this one resonated with me, being the same age as him when I first came to the country. I can't find anything online looked on the FCDO site also and hit the AI's might be a while before the mainstream media report on it I guess. Massive shame and would be worth finding out exactly what happened to him as this would be good advice to anyone to avoid the possible pitfalls in the country that hosts us. I'm getting a lot older now and have always said and maintain to say if I am going to go in a country this would be my choice.

So in other words the tuk tuk driver started it

She's definitely let herself go since that first photo!

Not sure he'll get away with this excuse he should just have gone for a massage.

Who subsequently
