  1. how many years had he not paid? a Thai guy banged my truck he had not paid it for 3 years,
  2. He does have a yellow plate,
  3. Why did he not want to drive through the checkpoint?
  4. Yes I agree with you, but when was it built? as we all know maintenance is not on the agenda here in Thailand
  5. I feel we will never know
  6. apparently, he has not been taking the medication he was given,
  7. where did he get the Glock 19 from?
  8. My wife has a few friends who work in there, all of them on the ground floor area the were hiding in stock rooms,

  13. Over 40,000 Russians land in Phuket in September
  14. According to another news outlet, for the month of September just over 40,000 Russians landed in Phuket alone
  15. Apart from the Russians, Phuket people are know by other Thai's as being Jai Dam, in my experience of living here a long time Thai's are racist's towards black people,
  16. I quite like the 1812 Overture, by Tchaikovsky
  17. A young lady sitting near to us in the coffee shop the other morning when it was raining heavy, she called Grab for less than 1 km away, the fare was 300 baht, My wife said to her we go by there we will drop you,
  18. Lucky he didn't get his head kicked in doing things like that,
  19. The ones I know do, they are driving the rents up here in Phuket,
  20. I think they need to be spending that money on improving what we already have, Improvements are greatly needed in the hospitality industry, the infrastructure, try pushing a buggy around then you see what I mean, The standards are very poor, food hygiene should be a priority, training should be given to staff, not pay the authorities to go away, shut the places down if they don't comply. I had my family here for a couple of weeks recently 5 in total they booked to stay in a 5 star hotel in Karon, the hotel was fine albeit only 5 rooms were booked out, they were really cutting back, the food on the breakfast buffet was bought from 7/11, I kid you not, One day the little one was hungry, my daughter was about to order a Hot Dog, my grand daughter is not 3 yet, I looked over at the menu and it was 350 baht ++, cancel that it's only for the baby, I'll walk across the road to 7/11, We tried to take them to different places to eat in the evening lots of food was left and sent back being poor quality or under cooked, I think my family would have struggled if they didn't have me or my wife with them. That two weeks opened my eyes the place has gone backwards, Lets not talk about the lack of English.
  21. Bank of Thailand released data showing fewer tourists entered Thailand in August but they comprised more long-stay tourists from Japan, Germany and Australia who spent more. They forgot to mention the Russians who make up the bulk of long stays in Phuket
  22. Lots of free publicity for his restaurant
  23. I think if you walk around with a face like thunder people will put you on the ignore list, in my soi is pretty mixed local Thais a few Burmese and a few farangs, everybody seems to let on, The Thai's always say sawat dee papa when I pass bye, A couple of times a week we take a walk down the beach and see the same people around even the miserable Russians nod their head,
