bob smith

that's not my number! that's the other bob smith.. bob.

...who gave you my number??? bob.

we all know how quickly things can escalate here. one minute you are laughing and joking, the next it's all kicking off. alcohol just makes everything worse of course.. for me personally if it was 1 on 1 I would stand my ground and fight back 2 on 1 I would still stand my ground and give it my best 3 or more I would probably walk/run away. involving the police is a definite no no as no good would ever come out of that.. they will always side with the thais no matter what and you will end up paying through the nose. what would you lot do if, for whatever reason, you found yourself in a violent altercation with a thai man? bob.

😄 what time you skinin up? bob.

face is a ridiculous concept and should be banned. bob.

always thought I was. Thanks for confirming! bob.

why? he seems fine to me. bob.

...I beg to differ! bob.

agreed. bob.

no. I would've shook his hand though if I was on there with him. It was the Thai woman doing most of the yeling. bob.

oh just go away will you! ...that's me being extremely polite, btw. bob.

cheers pal! bob.

...He is my spirit animal. A fine specimen indeed! Have you got the one where he craps himself? that's my favorite. bob.

in any other country this kind of thing would never make the news. but in xenophobic Thailand it is just what they want to see! bob.

No mate. I'm bob from South Shields.

Haven't you been reading the news? they have just given 60 day visa exemptions to all and sundry. that clean up you so wish for ain't gonna happen, SAFETY... it's gonna get down n dirty pretty soon! filthy even. bob.

Don't be daft! bob.

There are no laws anywhere in the world that state you have to be polite or nice to anyone. Correct me if I'm wrong but swearing in public in and of itself is not a crime. Only if coupled with the threat of violence can it then be construed as assault/battery, which is a crime. That guy was rude. So what? rude people are everywhere. Thais are also very rude. I have had a hell of a lot worse shouted at/done to me by locals over the years.. I think this is just another case of farang shaming and the fact that the woman sent her recorded clip to news agencies just goes to show how petty they really are. bob.

we are going to Koh Chang tomorrow so you had better hurry up!! bob.

whatever Trevor. sorry, Terrance. bob.

I feel ya mate.. still, beats talkin to the mrs! bob.

oh yeah, life is great posting on AN innit.. we are really livin now! setting the world on fire.. real trailblazers we are. musk, zuckerburger and benzos aint got nothin on bob, sue and gotfiddle! bob

Yep. You are probably right Sue. For once. bob.

I am not over 75 but I've been living here for many years. If I had my time again I would never have moved to Thailand. Biggest mistake of my life. bob.

good. you weren't invited anyway. bob.
