They have invested some serious money in Phuket, they will own Rawai soon

Somebody has issued licenses for all those weed shops and we all know who that is, I think there is another one opening in the middle of the Beach front,

They say the founders of Phuket were Chinese, one of our best friends lives in the old town, you would think she is Chinese, as with a lot of people around the old town.

I know Rawai is not much of a beach but the amount of speedboats and longtail boats parked up along there gives you a good indication of the lack of tourism, long gone are the hoards of Chinese tourist waiting in the morning, I drive along there most mornings, you just don't see them,

Normally them massage places have a price list out the front, 350 baht for an hour massage I hope they get caught, named and shamed, business is quiet everywhere at the moment,

Around where I live they have stood in the same place for the last 20 years, they were there this afternoon team handed

Cambodia is no match for Thailand, military equipment is far superior, One general in Thailand has 74,000 troops at the ready, Cambodia only has T-55 tanks if they are working, My wife says they've got no chance, My friend in Buriram says she will send her mother to negotiate with them

It's not new in Phuket I remember showing it some years ago here in Phuket and they gave a card that I could show any other time I came to that hospital, Last year I went to a different hospital and they asked me for my passport and I have been back to that same hospital a couple of times and didn't have to show it again they said not needed once I am in the system.

Thailand to Become First Export Customer of China’s QBZ-195T Rifles

It's difficult to get Thai's to do anything around where I live, most decent cleaners are Burmese, WTF Thai's are doing I dont know,

Not many people seem to be taking any notice of the new helmet law where I live,

Should be teaching them first aid and how to setup field kitchens,

Lets have a good olé boarder war good for tourism, I reckon the Chinese will back the Cambodians.

I think it's a great idea, should never have closed them, I see she's getting her priorities right, the most sensible thing I have ever seen a Shinawat do, all you need now is to allow smoking on Thai airways

I did know two farangs who died of AIDS here in Phuket, Few years back,

How about we celebrate a straight month?

Looks like she needed some serious protection having a grenade

Whatever you do dont use green ceramic tiles or red, pale blue is always good and if it's within your budget fibre optic lights, looks superb at night changing colours against the pale blue tiles, I have seen many different designs, believe it or not Sandwash looks good, they use the fine grade and mix a blue paint in the mix, when it all dries out it the colour looks uneven but under water it give a good effect, I think cost wise, sandwash is cheap to do, it's a long time since I've been involved I've lost touch on the prices,

How about overcharging? From Karon to the Airport 2000 baht, not me I just over heard the conversation between the taxi and a farang,

I think the have one but it doesnt work, like everything else here,

Do they still have to pay back their debts?

Have you noticed many Thai's dont was their hands after going to the toilet

Why?

The standards of hygiene in Thailand leaves a lot to be desired, Thai's dont throw anything away and I always said here in Phuket is low season, I had some fruit a couple of days ago from a well known supermarket, by 2-30 in the morning I knew about it, I have eaten something dodgy a few times recently, I'm not buying from street vendors.
