What's a policeman doing with a luxury sedan?

My soon to be next door neighbour got dengue whilst she was in Bangkok, she told me they gave her morphine injections she was in that much pain,

If they were drug dealers maybe the paid in cash and no trace, lets hope they got it from the ATM,

We went out for dinner last night around 6 pm to the gypsy village in Rawai which is popular with tourist, the restaurant we were in was busy but mostly locals only a couple of farang's with their wifes like me, but the area was not busy I looked in other places, couple of people here and there, seemed people were just walking about, normally the place is rammed it was easy to park, It is not as busy this year,

I did that yesterday I normally have the correct money for what I want, I was home alone and only had 1000 baht notes normally I would ask the wife for change, when I went into bigc mini I said sorry I've got no change only a 1000 baht note, 140 baht was my bill as always,

Unless he just collapsed he should have just got on that plane,

If this carries on I can see insurance companies adding a premium if you say you are going to Thailand, I do know of a case some years ago were the insurance company disputed the hospital bill, for the treatment was more expensive here than it was in Holland.

These private hospitals in Thailand are ruthless, cant believe how many people come here without insurance, I saw this the other day on the Daily Mail and I made a post telling people never come to Thailand without insurance whether people take any notice of my post I dont know, I have had dengue twice and the first time they kept me in hospital for 5 days it was nowhere near that price but i wasnt in ICU, and that was in one of the private hospitals here in Phuket,

And you lot always complaining about Russians, wait until you get a load of Saudis here, now their attitude to Thai's <deleted> stinks,

A friend of mine landed in Phuket with Qatar he said it was full

They have to load that lot on a truck, and nobody heard anything?

A friend of ours works for one of the biggest car finance companies here in Thailand and she says business is well down as they are declining so many applicants, and staff are being laid off,

If Thai's have money they do like to travel the ones I know do, the company my wifes sister works for in BKK last week end paid for 70 employees for a 4 day trip to Phuket all expenses paid, flights and a 5 star hotel in Kalim plus day trips, diner one night down the seafood market in Rawai,

It's not busy like it was last year, most mornings I take a drive down to the beach and have a coffee somewhere, few people down the beach early but when you look at the car and bike rental shops full of bikes for rent, locals are saying it's not busy like last year.

They do when they get of the airport,

We got an email from Airbnb telling us about the increase in Chinese tourist,

You need to get out more, as others have already mentioned, I'll give you another, Rok Island in the south,

Do they not require a different license here to drive a PSV?

I think I read somewhere there is no extradition treaty between Germany and Thailand

Is it illegal?

You only need to go down the beach people leaving their trash on the wall, I saw the other day whoever left it must have walked past 4 bin's to get to the car park, twice last week

There is a 5 star hotel near me in Rawai it's full of Chinese on Full Board, so they must be spending nothing on food outside of the hotel,

Same here were I live,

My next door neighbours, he got covid and she got dengue, what a mess,

The other day our cleaner told us, in the local shop in the soi and the scrap yard they all have it, they were closed for a couple days, the shop can get busy in the evening with Thai workers, Im wearing a mask if I have to go there,
