Huge project coming up right on the beach front in Rawai, Russian money Im sure behind there is all Russians be like little Moscow soon

I heard also Bali has a few, Russians

Nothing seems to happen to the agents, perhaps if they got 10 years might make them think long and hard, maybe others involved,

There has been a couple of places raided were Russians are involved one was tour shop and the other car rent, and they had work permits,

Happened here in Phuket a few weeks ago right near where I live 2 of them on a bike, Dead,

I met one a couple of months ago and he was here studying English I didn't think it was possible,

I have met a few over the last 18 months, one worked for a oil company, another owned a crypto exchange who lived in Dubai, a few work online doing what I don't know, then there is the dodgy ones, Here in Phuket there has been a few of these taxi app's started up looks like Russians, one I know definitely is, if you watch FB groups, many car rent and bike rent, properties for rent anything to make a few quid. A friend of ours is a hairdresser (Thai) and she was telling us that we have Russians hairdressers working from home also doing nails, earlier this year up around Bang Tao area 3 of them got caught running a salon from home,

I wonder how many farang are actually banned from entering Thailand for overstaying? I know of 2,

I'm not as smart as you

Have you seen the price of a bottle of wine in a 5 star hotel in Thailand? Me and the wife went out for a meal in Chalong, nice place right on the water, 180 baht for a bottle of chang, a little shop in my soi is 60 baht, maybe if they stopped that nonsense people would buy more,

Nope we haven't forgot, I drive by there everyday, infact less than an hour ago and I always look over were it happened, her name is Irina Pustovalova, annoying no further information came out to follow up, I even saw the morning after it happened,

Thats good the landlord is doing it for your stop your moaning, while they are there get them to check the roof space, I never thought they eat plasterboard, but they do,

I go to the beach a few mornings a week, the other day I was sat on the wall and I noticed a few tourist leaving their belongings on the beach while they went down to the water,

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,
