Older and Wiser

No generalisation there Chris. How broad-minded of you.

What century did you visit and WHERE did you visit? You must have been to some cheap s--t place. Gotta say something about you, perhaps Chumpchange is apt. I live in the Philippines but have an apartment in Thailand. I love both, each for their own distinctive characteristics.

Never heard of 4 floors of Whores, then?

According to sky news, the plane encountered severe turbulence over Myanmar and dropped 6,000 feet. A 73 year old male passenger died of apparent heart attack and many passengers not wearing seat belts were thrown into the air, hitting the ceiling. The plane made an emergency landing in Bkk where ambulances were waiting to take injured to hospital.

Didn't the article say this took place outside the temple and it's a small child who needs to go. What's the big hoodad?

It appears the lady lived alone. Didn't the maid live-in? Seems not, the article says she was informed the next day. So she didn't discover the body, then who did? If maid/friend for 17 years, why didn't she live in when her boss had cancer? How did the lady have a gun? A lot of unanswered questions.

Maintain a UK address or live in a similar country with a reciprical arrangement, where you get full pension, like the Philippines.

A Tale as old as Time as Celine Dion would say/sing. Yes, Mr. Entitled Youtuber, thank you for stating the obvious or preaching to the converted. Continue with your Gullible's Travels and giving us these insightful stories.

I'm confused, teenagers aged 34 and 20?🤕

Assuming it's not a plant for ulterior motives.

Bribery attempt unsuccessful. Obviously their reputations were insulted by being offered a bribe, or not.

The Swiss are making a late run to beat the Ruskies and the Brits.

Isn't this story from a long time ago? Who pays 6-10,000 a night for a hotel room in Thailand?

You got it 100% and Japan is the same, though they have made advances in making such people, especially from Philippines, legal.

Thais aren't getting special treatment here, South Koreans are racist against many nationalities. When I lived in Japan, many of my western friends visited SK with Japanese girlfriends and complained about their racist attitude,

Are there no black people who are scots?

That would imply there are no immigration facilities at the new terminal; that you still have to clear immigration at the main terminal. Immigration time varies with your arrival time. I usually arrive from the Philippines around 5pm; no sweat. But last year my flight on PAL, needless to say, was delayed 5 hours, meaning we arrived along with many flights from Europe. It took one and a half hours just to clear immigration. Incidentally, as a 77 year old, standing around for that length of time is no joke.

Miss A (a pseudonym). Thanks for telling me, I was sure it was her real name.

Really, you do surprise me. Filipinos are every bit as superstitious as Thais. I rented out a house to a Korean family in Manila. The father and family went to Korea, leaving his brother behind. The brother hung himself from the railings on the upper floor hallway. I couldn't rent it out till I had a priest hold a blessing/party inviting any neighbours who may gossip to prospective tenants.

I was wondering what this noisy bar steward was. I have one that comes very close to my window. It seems to be always there, sure it's migratory? And it calls all day and all night. Don't they ever sleep?

Probably framed by the police, a common scenario in the Philippines.

Scots are not Brits now?

If his wife finds out he has a girlfriend in Thailand, he may lose more than his gold necklace.

What I can't understand is why it is so severe in his case. Dengue is not rare by any means and very seldom a problem unless the patient is young, old or has other conditions. They don't even bother to hospitalise most cases and it passes in only a few days. He's only 36 and seems to be fit and strong. So what's different here?
