I think you will find that drugs are not included on the list of commodities normally donated for making merit.

This is funny! Sounds like something Woody Allen would say.

Seriously, I get fed up with anyone if  I live with them all the time and shes  the same although for her she loves her work and it dominates her entire day

Me too, I just like the honeymoon part after being apart for any reason that always sounds good to me.

No matter what attacking a customer is a no-no! just call the cops to settle the matter. She should be jailed and charged.

i  live  separately  from  my  Wife for various reasons, 1.  she works in BKK and i dont like to live there I like the countryside, 2.  she earns a lot of  money there so moving here isnt an option.

We meet  up every  month here or I go there for a few  days, we  both dont mind and meeting  up is like a honeymoon every time.

We have holidays together overseas for about 1  month each year

I like the honeymoon part, maybe we should try this!

It has never happened to me, or any friends I have met over the years here.

Strange that, isn't it ?

It has happened to me a  twice in bangkok as I was walking down the street(nightime) a few years ago, but never once in many years afterwards. Getting groped is easy when you're not ready for it and putting up a fight could be a problem, 'cause these folks travel in packs at times. Best just to get the hell out of there as I did.

Marine experts called for all boats to keep clear from whale sharks off Phuket's west coast. Image: Screengrab from jet-ski operator video .

Yes, please keep clear and anchor your boats on the endangered coral reef for better viewing.

They find 8 pick ups to crash per day. 64,000 per day. They don't intent on fixing until at the end of the month when they count their revenue of 1.9million. They then get an expensive paint job, plus full wax and polish done at 100,000 each for two cars. Good profit.

Makes sense to me. well, I hope they throw the book at em'.

I live out here and can see there is no water management and not enough storage, everyone(farmers) depend mainly on directly drawing off off dam releases from the reservoir and not enough large storage ponds locally

Surely this does not make sense,they damage 2 cars by squeezing

a pickup,then demand 8,000 for damage,it would cost more to have

the cars repaired ?,so unless the cars are stolen,this crime will not pay.

regards worgeordie

Funny, I was thinking the same thing. 

Even if the lady was a suspected gambler these measures seem a bit extreme dont they? Most cops are dicks the world over, not just here. They usually try to take a persons dignity;treat them like a piece of trash.

Very good! I prefer Mi luang though.

Seems straightforward to me.  One police chief acquires an illegal piece of land; he sells it to a second police chief; both believe no one will touch them.  Just an ordinary day in corruption-free Thailand.

Are you trying to tarnish their good image? Shame on you! twenty lashes with wet noodle!

This is male combat and not mating at all! Two male snakes, each seeking to dominate the other, vying for mating rights with a female who is not far away!

How do you know that? Mating snakes seem to dislay similar activity IMO.

Speakers said they were just medicinal plants and not addictive drugs. And it was widely known that they had many uses in medicinal purposes.

I don't totally agree about not addictive, but it's not anywhere nearly as dangerous as alcohol. I do have friends I've known my whole life and they have wasted most of their lives up in smoke, yes, they are addicted.

Yesterday the two models went to tech police to complain that they had been hurt by whoever had stolen their images and used them to promote a sex movie.

Poor girls! Their good reputations have been tarnished, now they need to capitalize on the evil ones.

I remember seeing a beach in Chonburi like the picture above. I can't imagine how many sea creatures are hurt by all this plastic.

I'll bet that beach was Bang Saen. Am I right? Filthy, filthy place at times especially after the weekend crowd leaves.

Do they drive on the same side of the road as here?  I know when I first came, it took me some time to get use to this...always looking the wrong way!

 

RIP to this poor chap. 

That is a possibility and an easy mistake to make. I am from US and drive in both countries twice a year and catch myself cussing at people when I'm the one who should be getting cussed at!

I wonder how many US expats would have to leave or look for alternatives if they actually had to tell the truth and prove their income declaration with evidence lol

 

anyway up to them they can get away with it and I'm not complaining at all, as long you can then happy days

Most people have it(money requirements) or at least did have it or they would have never gotten the visa in the first place in their home country where you do have to have proof of everything, I meet both requirements income monthly and savings. My first trip to bangkok embassy I had paper everywhere proving this and that and found out I needed nothing except an appointment for nortary services and my current passport/visa. I think it's a nutty system and easy to fool, but I don't make the rules and it still does cost money, so maybe that's all they really want not the truth.   

I have never been asked to provide any proof of money or income. Only asked a question(is everything true) to a notary service and sign a piece of paper, then out the door till next year. I don't think for a minute you will have any problems whatsoever.

Great idea. While you're eating your noodles you can watch the girls looking at themselves in a mirror. The really hot ones don't need to crack a smile as they are clearly better than you. Oh, reminds me of soi cowboy. 

Don't forget the cell phones too, they count!

Women can bring you great pleasure and drive you insane with anger in a matter of minutes, Choose wisely!

 Even late at night when there are less cars and traffic around, some of the roads in and around Pattaya are not in the best condition, and it’s very easy to lose control of your bike, especially at high speed.

Speed is the number one killer on motorbikes everywhere. I learned this myself after I crashed once and did some research, I still ride, but take it a bit slower and cautiously. Best of luck for the injured man, hope he recovers and learned a good lesson.
