    he could have capsized and banged his head, banged his head on an overhanging branch, had a heart attack... wearing a life jacket is sensible but not 100% protection from all possible incidents. without further details we don't know.
  2. it is what it is
    OP, you need to keep up, there has been massive corruption in the EU since it began. so to answer your question, no.
  3. it is what it is
    what relevance is that? if you speak french you can't be fluent in another language? i know many excellent english teachers with english as a second language, and vice versa
  4. it is what it is
    it wouldn't be thailand without a cloak of vagueness and uncertainty
  5. it is what it is
    if you don't know how to take and attach a photo with your phone either have a look on youtube or ask a younger person, that's what i do when i'm stuck.
  6. it is what it is
    Taking time away from her career at 28? They mean she quit? not at all, many organisations offer career break opportunities to staff. indeed, it often has the opposite effect, prevents staff from quitting.
  7. it is what it is
    while the authorities are well within their rights to track down and prosecute over stayers, they are breaking the law after all so can't complain (it's not difficult to be legal here, the vast majority seem to be able to manage it), they do seem to be going for the low hanging fruit.
  8. it is what it is
    packed my possessions into boxes and storage when i left due to covid, returning 2.5 years later i was amazed at how much the plastic and rubber components of some of my possessions had degraded...
  9. it is what it is
    ease off on the control freaking... it's her career, it's her culture, it's her decision, she's an adult not a child, let her decide.
  10. it is what it is
    how can answering the phone give someone access to your bank account? to paraphrase winston churchill; the most likely cause is the most obvious cause... are you 100% sure exactly what your wife said and did?
  11. it is what it is
    anyone who's lived here a while will be all too familiar with the continual rip up and replace perfectly good footpaths and roads shenanigans, that take weeks if not months to complete and often result in an inferior result. i have no evidence, but common sense suggests backhanders involved...
  12. it is what it is
    a team that can't even get the name of the sport correct. er, no, sorry to say you're a poster that cant get their facts right. Soccer is a correct noun, derived from association football. you're welcome. ????
  13. it is what it is
    agree; if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
  14. it is what it is
    no such thing as a one way street in thailand
  15. it is what it is
    i'm not sure they've got the right guy, of the seven officials present not one is pointing. Free the Polish one!!
  16. it is what it is
    not correct, if a foreigner committed such a crime it would certainly not result in deportation or even jail time, a fine probably.
  17. it is what it is
    earth carrying truck, bet that had some momentum. i'd hazard a guess that the lack of serious injury is a testament to the safety design of cars today, rather an amulets... but what do i know...?
  18. it is what it is
    nah, the majority were never working in first place. a friend had her bag snatched in a busy area in bangkok with many cameras. she went to the police, apparently they were either dummy cameras or were never correctly set up...
  19. it is what it is
    easily done with a tick box; are you a criminal? if answer no, get extension, if answer yes, no extension. job done. next!
  20. it is what it is
    define cheap, there are often great savings to be had in power buy and other mall electronics shops, prior to the world cup i saw big brand models with 20% + reductions. i'd just keep an eye out and pick up a bargain.
  21. it is what it is
    horses for courses, though i could never live in a small village, especially if i didn;t speak the language - what do you do all day?! - but clearly suits some people. if i were to settle down with a thai, and this is highl, highly improbable, we'd live in bangkok or near the sea.
  22. it is what it is
    in banglampu many of the larger hotels have yet to open and ones that are open are only using a few floors and/or not opening the restaurant. speaking to local business people this is due to low customer numbers and difficulty in getting staff - many migrant hospitality staff are yet to return.
  23. it is what it is
    Old men drinking a beer at breakfast time in bars along beach road pattaya. living the dream...
  24. it is what it is
    a stolen passport is a family matter? he wasn't really that helpful was he?!
  25. it is what it is
    sorry mate, but you bought unseen, your choice. caveat emptor.
