This is exactly the type of memories that made Thailand wonderful.... until you get used to it and the glitter falls away... and all becomes ordinary... but still a great place to live. I have similar memories from 10 years ago but they were in Cambodia not Thailand so won't tell here.

I have a strong suspicion the source may have been someone's backside.

The photos of the burned out bus showed gas cylinders.

I would be booking a quick flight to Phnom Penh and back a day later and get a 60 day visa free entry. No way would I want an overstay stamp in my passport.

I am not quite sure what a 68 year old guard is expected to do at his age. Does yelling "Get Off MY Lawn!" still work?

I am relieved it was not an Aussie

Peace and quiet is good because it lets you think and contemplate the memories from your life.

I hope this was not you. LOL

Can I claim her as my luggage?

That is the easiest and most reliable way to get old movies. I just connect my PC to the TV with a HDMI cable and stream PC -> TV Thailand has VERY fast internet and it should only take a few minutes to grab most 720p or 1080p movies using bittorrent.

The usual flip-flop

It's possible the blue notice was applied after he arrived in Thailand.

No good for me because I would have to pay 300 baht.

In our condo they only take one out of the four lifts out of service for maintenance at a time. There are always at least 3 working, assuming the building has electricity of course.

What would really piss the "girls" off is if you turn up at the reunion with your beautiful Thai wife 20-30 years younger than you.

When China denies something it is 99% probable that they are lying just like they always do. It's a shame that Thailand has to tolerate second-hand water coming from China in the Mekong.

I stopped using Facebook a few years ago, and I have never really posted anything personal. It got worse and worse every time I went there and finally got sick of all the cr@pp it tried to feed me. The only part of Facebook I use now is messenger on my phone, which is a separate app anyway.

When I was 6 years old and lived in a boarding school for a year, the nuns would feed us mashed potatoes and mashed pumpkin. I hated the pumpkin but was not allowed to leave the table until my plate was cleared. I tried mixing the pumpkin and potato together to dilute the taste but then I couldn't eat the potato either. It took me more than 50 years before I tried to eat pumpkin again in the form of pumpkin soup and pumpkin cake and discovered it was actually delicious. I still refuse to eat mashed pumpkin. Those nuns have a lot to answer for considering the damage they caused to my sanity. Christian Brothers later in my childhood did not help.

Tell her to start a GoFundMe. That seems to be the trend for raising mony these days.

What is an Audio-Visual actress? Are these lovely ladies voice actors as well as on screen?

I wonder who threw the first punch.

Salted adds to the flavour

This is my daily routine now that I am retired.

I like that expression. Not heard it before but will use it in future.

That second photo must be the school bus. 🙄
