    I landed in Japan once (working on Okinawa). Fresh out of Don Mueng. The customs officer asked me, "Do you have any drugs? Marijuana or cocaine?"

     

    I started slapping all my pockets & said "Nope. Fresh out, but if I had some I'd share it with you. That way we could both get HIGH".

     

    He told me to get lost.

    You wouldn't wanna give a reply like that to a Singapore customs officer at Changi Airport.

    There will be a clause in every insurance policy in invisible ink that excludes such accidents. I have never had health insurance or travel insurance because insurance companies will always find a way to avoid paying anything.

     

    Yeah, when you go into any major city who has some of  the tallest office buildings ? Usually insurance companies and  I wonder why.

    No one ever does, it's why we take out adequate insurance. 

     

    Another tourist falling, taking selfie on cliff face, story 

     

    So the hospital won't release him until his bill is paid so what happens if they can't pay and he dies ?? What is he worth then ? I suppose they could take out his vital organs and sell them and recoup some of the money but it looks like his body is not in good shape.

    a routine friendly (corrupt) behavior of authorities... I sympathize with the restaurant owner to come out in public and tell the truth... but I am sure they will be forced to shut down the restaurant in near future soon... 

    no outrage... ? 

     

    Yes I would say that he might soon get a message suggesting that he close down and keep his mouth shut in future or are booking would be made for him at tha Bangkok Hilton.

    After a lifetime slaving over hot stoves in commercial kitchens, it makes me cringe when my wife breaks all the "rules" about food safety and never suffers any effects. Won't put leftover food in the fridge until it is cold, then eats it days later. We had grilled fish 5 days ago, she ate the leftovers today...aroi! No way was I touching it. When reheating leftover rice she won't just heat enough for her meal, she will do the lot and put the excess back on the bench to be reheated again days later. Apart from food safety issues food  loses flavour when reheated again...but as it is usually smothered in chilli I guess that don't matter!

    My Philipina missus the other day soup/stew with small mackeral fish cut into pieces and cooked in a pot on the stove.She ate some that night and left the rest on the stove in the pot all night. Before she went to work next morning she told me not to put it in the fridge or else and thats where it stayed for the next 4 days until she had finished it. No way I would eat it and no aircon in house.

    But she, and her family, have been doing it for years with no ill effects. 

    I will re-heat food, including rice in the microwave, but make sure that it is too hot to eat straight away.

    Must be an Asian custom my wife is Philipina been married 25 years next week and she cooks a large rice cooker full of rice for herself and leaves the uneaten rice   on the kitchen counter until the next night. I used to put in the fridge  but I don't worry anymore but I sure don't eat it.

    It ain't worth 350 kangaroo bucks and 3,500 baht to have your name published in a dodgy Pattaya newspaper over an incident involving a thieving coconut bar working girl. I'd pay 5 times that to keep my name out of the paper.

     

    He must have sharp eyes to allegedly recognise the girl wearing different clothes.  Must have been something distinctive about her - assuming of course it was a she.  This sort of stunt is usually associated with chicks that have dicks. :coffee1:

    Strange comment Mr. GSXRNZ do you think that the poor old bugger in the wheelchair gives sh%t about getting his name in the paper. He's on his own no wife, no carer and decided to get a bit of female company so what. She probably was a he and he was stupid to leave his money in his trouser pocket but perhaps a newby and too trusting. Anyway he has learnt his lesson it's much safer to get a girl out of a bar so she can be traced and she wont have a sausage  and 2 veges under her dress.

    Gee, do you think that when the CONSERVATIVE premier of Canada's largest province, Ontario, the province hit hardest by tariffs,  says Carney did well, that he was telling porkies?  He is also  the chairman of the provincial premiers conference and speaks on behalf of all premiers and territorial leaders.  Was he lying when he  reported that those leaders, who represent multiple political parties, had similar sentiments? Listen to him in this 1 minute clip.

    There was no "security breach". He carried items that weren't allowed, and they were found during the screening process as they should have been. Presumably these mortar rounds didn't contain explosive, or he's an even bigger fool than he already appears to be. It would have been nice to read an explanation of where he had gotten these and why he was carrying them.

    It is possible to carry certain unique dangerous  items on a plane but you have to declare them. I had a chinese chopper and a machete handmade for me in the philipines one time and was worried I would not be able to bring them back to Australia so when I got to the airport I  declared them and they were  taken off me and I was told to collect them at the oversize counter upon arrival at Brisbane which I did no problem. So I reckon that if this bloke's items were inert and harmless he probably could have done the same as me.
