  1. Tend to agree, one would expect to see 1000's of underage vape victims staggering around coughing up blood if it were true that vapes were so deadly.
  2. Absolutely shocking your response that is. Just because certain things are considered "unacceptable" in ones home country does not mean they are viewed in the same way here. Its perfectly acceptable to send a kid to the shop to buy beer or ciggies here, You should learn to accept things and not try to impose your former homelands rules on Thai society
  3. If it was an unknown hazard how did they know it would take 5 years and not 10 ?
  4. Something not right about this story, the girl apparently has a severe chronic lung condition, it didn't just manifest itself overnight did it ? Why was it not noticed and medical advice sought months ago ? It must have been quite hard not to notice the rather unpleasant symptoms that accompany severe lung damage but nothing done by anybody until now ?? Were they just seeing how long she could last it out alone ?
  5. I'm sure they would appreciate a pedant as much as the rest of us
  6. Obviously they are not placing foreigners "under surveillance" they have neither the time or the resources. What they are indicating , regardless of the translation, is a more visible and pro active presence in certain areas. Joe bloggs in nakon nowhere can rest easy. Cannot think why the headline would be worded that way, honest I can't
  7. Spoken just like retired headmasters
  8. not the case in the uk most of the woke media outlets go out if their way to avoid mentioning ethnicity........"a british national" being a common descriptive that tells us all we need to know
  9. Lets not forget that the "degrees" in Thailand are not necessarily always awarded on a merit based system, depending on ones family / wealth they are handed out like confetti, failure is not an option for those with the correct surnames. This can be rather worrying , I was recently admitted to hospital for emergency surgery, which was cancelled last minute due to a lack of available blood in the blood bank. A lesser simpler procedure was carried out, the following day a "doctor" presumably degree qualified, explained to me in "Pidgeon" english ( even my mrs was sniggering) that "farang " blood was always rare commodity ! I kid you not
  10. Two stokes are not "banned" in the west , rather they are no longer fitted to new vehicles, (just like in Thailand)! Its perfectly legal to use a two stroke motorcycle in the UK or any other two stroke powered machine
  11. lovely clear air here in Surin this morning, as usual. I'm wondering what all the fuss is about
  12. Their contribution is far less than a drop in the ocean, as Tuk Tuks are not powered by two stroke petrol engines they are powered by gas (LPG) When was the last time either of you two geniuses saw a Tuk Tuk spewing out smoke ?
  13. You can't see his eyes, ever, Scary bloke
  14. like anybody should believe anything either of those two say
  15. Is that both "private eye" readers or just one of them
  16. you can get a 90 day non O in your own country without a Thai bank account and use that to open an account o your arrival here. Not that difficult in theory at least
  17. where are they all coming from? What countries? its not necessarily the result of any changes to the visa free system.
  18. lovely place 30 years ago, dread to think what its become,
