Newspaper can't just print lies and untruths.

Of course they can!! And do.

The only thing I believe in newspapers is the date and I check that on the wall calendar.

We had tracks running through the woods on our property as kids. Can't count the number of pennies we flattened. Not one fell off, shot off, or derailed a train.

If Thailand is anything to go by trains can be derailed by not believing in spirits, cows and more obviously by heavy rain.

I did the same stuff in Barking at the crossing. Flatten one, drill a hole and hang it from the push bike.

Those were the days

The condition of the beach seems to be just a symbol of what Pattaya - an alleged "world-class" tourist venue - is in reality: a place full of shit, human waste, pollution, and a mortal danger for visitors.

Yes, yes, yes! 

Wife: There is this resort just south-east of Bangkok called Pattaya. Can we go visit? This TAT brochure states that it's "world class".

Husband: You wouldn't like it dear. It's "a place full of shit, human waste, pollution, and a mortal danger for visitors."

Wife: Oh darling, you are so knowing and always thinking of my well-being. Didn't you go there a few years ago?

Husband: Errr.... No!!

Wife: I think you did. Remember the postcard?!

Husband: Oh yes! I remember now! I went for the International marathon.

Wife: I didn't know you could run that far darling!?

Husband: Errr.... I just went to watch. Went straight back to the fishing lake afterwards.

Also a psychological danger for visitors.

Today they were lifting up the concrete drain covers opposite Central on 2nd road. Drains were full of cooking oil and a orange colored sludge, it was disgusting. Fancy pouring all that oil down there, no wonder things clog up in this town.

Well that cooking oil could be recycled. New business opp'!!

Not a day old and on page 22 already. 

Nate - or whatever his name is - does controversial things - to get a following (for whatever reasons).

After we have vented our collective disgust can't we move on!?

There is actually important, interesting and humorous stuff out there for us to spend our time on.

18 years old,  28 years old,  38 years old,  48 years old,  58 years old and counting!  This is hardly worth getting peoples knickers in a twist over is it?  Just consider the horrendous stuff that goes on in Thailand every day, much of which is reported on Thai Visa.

I agree.

He was adding his artwork to a wall that was already designated for such art.

It might be termed graffiti but it is not knocking down people and not stopping: or hurting a 5 year old by deliberately scalding him is it; or dumping trash into the river or forest?

I personally would not do it but I've done things here that I could be deported for.

He probably sought permission to express his artwork but misunderstood the station master's reply.

Let's all get a life!

Just imagine if everyone got away as easy as the red bull guy how deadly the roads would be because there are no consequences. Now at least some people obey the law. Prefer everyone.. but its better then the alternative. So enforcing partly is still better than no enforcement. 

Mushroom pickers watch out. Don't go bribing a judge if you know what's good for you.

Since when has Pattaya been a " world class resort " ?

Just after the TAT lady postponed the International Marathon.

To be fair, and to put it into context, she was referring to 'quality Chinese and Russians' that were on their way to the world class resort; as she spoke. So to speak.

Good fishing park just outside Pattaya and one at soi 12 if I can recall.

exscuse my ignorance but where is this secret alternative?..

 

( for a friend who is coming to visit.......)

Hi DL.

Yes the secret sex town just south of Jontiem. It is on TvisaF ( a green bee with a smile on his face). Obviously I wouldn't click on it. Too early for you to  look too DL; give it a couple of days!!

Suvarnbbhumi Airport, also known as 'Swampy'.

While Pattaya continues to grow with no real master plan to improve the system as they continue to add to the sewer.

Pattaya has outgrown itself and the infrastructure has not yet caught up. It has grown from a small fishing village into the world's sex capital in just 50 years. Too late now. Move the sex down the coast to the other "secret sex town" but put the infrastructure in first!

Nong Khai has black filth being pumped direct into the Mekong.

My wife can write "Thai". Nothing else just "Thai".

I posted a while back that I thought his work was art on a graffiti wall.

I didn't get much support so now I'm going with the flow and saying amputate his fingers and then send him to 'attitude adjustment' (AA) classes. If he is still alive after AA then then make him lick the paint off the wall. Obviously putting paint remover on his tongue first. If he can't cut the mustard doing that then; well......just string him up!!!!

Then deport him.

It was/is a graffiti wall.

All artists welcome.

Just unlucky someone didn't appreciate his work.

He should have charged them 4k.

When we first got a rug on the floor of our old east end home after the war mum insisted that everyone had to change into slippers before entering the house. We were so wary of a 'yak, yak' we didn't walk on the rug for years. When we moved to Barking some years later the rug was still as new.

Who cares about this really?! Just think this topic is 'overblown'. Is there any farang on TvisaF who really gives a s===?

When I lived near Penn (in Isaan or Isan or even Issan) I noticed various ways of spelling Penn; Pen, Phen, and Phenn. This is a sign on the 2022 that says 'pen'.

More important and interesting topics to waste away the day than this one.

This is nonsense! She could fly to Paris once a week from Manchester to buy her handbags and shoes. Or get the train down to London's west end. Ever heard of Amazon!!

Very disappointing all round.
