  1. There seems little doubt that 'victimless' white collar crime is treated much less seriously than 'normal' crimes. No idea why. They are not victimless and sentences are typically not a deterrent.
  2. Got just over a 1000 at the moment.....no idea if they will be worth anything at the end of the day.
  3. 1. If it is registered in her name, unless she is feeling generous, you can say goodbye to it. 2. No expert, but I would have thought bike theft is pretty endemic, particular in the current climate.
  4. Ha. I know. But it was the going rate amongst the Thai girls. They were continually borrowing and lending money from each other, mainly to cover gambling debts.
  5. Hate these articles being posted and referring to a video, but then they don't post the video. The Independent and the BBC do it all the time.
  6. Thai PM issues warning about counterfeit Governments.
  7. Reading up it seems these will operate much like hybrid cars do. The batteries will only come into play where overhead cables are impractical for whatever reason.

    Guinness

    This may be old news but yesterday I visited two Irish pubs but both had no Guinness. Is Guinness still available in Thailand? That's Brexit for you.
  9. And here's me thinking governments were just trying their best to stop us dying from a previously unknown virus. How naive can you get?
  10. My wife regularly lent money out when we lived in Germany to the local Thai girls. I wouldn't call her a loan shark by any stretch, but the accepted rate was 5% per month. I think I missed a trick there.
  11. When corruption is so endemic it has its own momentum. It is like trying to stop a super tanker with a captain who has a vested interest in going as fast as possible. With so many snouts in the trough, where is the desire, the pressure, for change going to come from?
  12. Things must be getting very tense 'out there'. Many Thais must be in debt up to the hilt to these loan sharks, and yet have nothing coming in to start repayments.
  13. It seemed quite low down for CCTV, I thought maybe a smartphone just stood up on a filing cabinet. Was he so arrogant to do this in full view of a CCTV he would have known was there, recording everything he did?
  14. It gives you wiings (never drunk the stuff myself, can't really see the point of it)
  15. I am neutral in the matter, but aren't most trains now electric? What are the wires for?
  16. I wondered that? Presumably the argument is, recirculating the air via the aircon is more likely to spread the virus? Some logic in that I guess.
  17. With a published unemployment rate of 2% (?) can't see there is any great panic.
  18. Wifey says that's not him, it his doppelgänger, the real one is on his way to the Belgium Grand Prix
  19. Didn't see the 'face' first time I read that.....thought I had been missing out.
  20. Ha. Yes. I need to stop posting now. Had a beer and my fingers are typing what my brain is thinking, not good......555
