I must admit I'm somewhat startled by the majority of the comments totally ignoring the injuries the man sustained from his attacker. Seems the hotel charging for a replacement key card is much more important. And since the Victim is Indian, he obviously is violating every labor law in the land. And to settle the other irrelevant argument raised by commenters is whether the time between midnight and noon is properly referred to as "morning". The definition of "morning" in the Oxford dictionary is: morn·ing [ˈmɔːnɪŋ] NOUN the period of time between midnight and noon, especially from sunrise to noon: "I've got a meeting this morning" · [more] synonyms: before noon · before lunch(time) · a.m. · morn · forenoon Link: define morning - Search (bing.com) Personally, I have always called these hours morning.

You Can Trust us, says RTP over "drunk cop" accident claim
paulbrow replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
I know this won't go over very well here, and although I do agree with many of the member comments to some degree, however, over my many years here I have met many good cops. They aren't all bad or on the take. Many are, I know, but they do do some things correctly and fairly. That's all I got to say! Let the flack fly!! -
Skype routes the cal over the internet to the nearest local land line provider and you only pay for the local call, extremely cheap. Cents, not dollars, if anything at all....

Just a minor addition, all documents must be no older than 30 days from time of making new license. I wound up doing a couple of them a second time because I was too slow in getting them the first time. BTW, I got my residence certificate 1 hour after requesting it. This was at the one stop shop however.

Do you ever think about the family that left you behind
paulbrow replied to steven100's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Certainly, I think about them, but I don't dwell on them. I too am down pretty much to just me. Entire immediate family is gone and reasonably sure all the aunts and uncles are gone also. The good news is that I'm still kicking! Life's too short to dwell on our losses. -
My understanding is a bit different, the self-administration of the test and waiting for test result is all done under the surveillance of a 3rd party administrator, usually online. So, your cost is significantly higher than the standard ATK test as you're paying for the time of the test monitor, but still self-administered at home.

Girls and Tatoos, how much is too much ?
paulbrow replied to Social Media's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Each to their own. Who am I to tell anybody what to do with their own body? Personally, I don't mind them. If you don't like them, wish her a good life and move on to the next one.... -
Will the wall primer + color hide this mess?
paulbrow replied to FrederikKitten's topic in DIY Forum
I'd recommend using a good quality sealer first. They are designed to prevent bleed through. Them prime and finish coat as usual. I used to paint professionally and a good sealer will stop crayon, magic marker and all sorts of nasty stuff from bleeding through. Here's a quick link to the paint guru site you might find helpful: Stain Stoppers: Primers That Block Bleed-Through - Paint Gurus (typepad.com) Good luck! -
Just had to make a comment on how a legitimate question about the legalities of legally importing meat into Thailand solicited so many responses on how to smuggle meat into Thailand...

Thailand Post upgrades delivery service to 24 hours
paulbrow replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
There's quite a bit of postal bashing going on here and I simply don't understand it. Maybe I've just been lucky, but the post office delivers at least twice a day, 7 days a week to my home. Additionally I've never sent anything that wasn't delivered as promised and nothing is extremely delayed coming to me. I think the Thai Post Office does and exceptionally good job.
