Public Outcry Freezes Controversial Phuket Hotel Project
I know the resort you mean, I'm not sure about a construction site I have not noticed an increase in concrete wagons going by, The Nai Harn hotel will not be happy having to drive through there, All I can see is the mess around the lake the builders have left, the job has ground to a halt, it's says they ran out of money. Lots of people I've spoken to are not happy, Thai's included, as you know lots of Thai people like Nai Harn beach

The waitress said I had 4 beers, when I only had 3...
It always happens in certain bars around were I live, One bar I used to go in, I always only had 3 beers, one night they got a new girl, she was new in that bar but she was well known in many other bars, when I got my bill it was 6 beers, all the other staff and the owner knew I only ever drink 3, she kicked off saying take a look at the camera, she really got the hump, I think the bar got rid of her, never saw her again

Thailand Ramps Up Vaping Crackdown Amid Rising Concerns
Did any of you guys try using Vapes to give up smoking? I tried a couple of years ago it didn't work I came to the conclusion that Vapes were worse, and they were giving me pains in my chest something I didn't get smoking cigarettes', also you don't know what the hell is in them vapes, Would be more interesting if one of these government departments would do some research on these vapes to see what toxic poisens are in them, Seems to me when you see these young people walking down the streets it's more about fashion, It doesnt matter to me I gave up smoking about 5 months ago, sometimes I do miss a giggy out the back of my house,

Mystery Key Boxes Expose Bangkok's Illegal Rentals
That used to go on years ago in other countries maybe it still does, It could be a shop down the road that holds a load of keys so the guests have to go there first, Airbnb have something on their site called a "Co-Host" and that could be anyone who works in the building and will be the one who has the access to the unit or property, The owner never visits the place, that's what they call an Absentee Owner, some states in America have clamped down on that,
