  1. The tourists are learning fast on local cultural habbits. Rip as a death is always a tragedy that should go beyond irony, not matter who.
  2. Ok the Swede could have, should have done this and that whatever. But seriously, using all the manpower when there are worse criminal gangs operating and left alone ? All a matter on the size of the brown enveloppe and it's not ready to change. Nothing new and hope the poor chap gets a new start in life and does not repeat his mistakes in engaging with the wrong thai woman,
  3. Isn't Samrong rather far from Bangkok ?
  4. If possible, have somebody bring back something reliable from Europe and have it professionnally fitted by a reputable electricial. Pool electrics are not to be taken lightly and if badly fitted, it can end up in a tragedy.
  5. What's the point in having an Immigration office at Bluport if they don't handle out the essential document used in the Immigration racket ?????
  6. Sadly true. Looks that many drunks cannot handle their ego issues either. Pity.
  7. On the other hand if Trumps wins in 2024, the absurd Ukraine war will end and so will the billions going out from US Treasury to Ukraine, will come to an end. Time to help one's own before spending tax money all over the planet on different motivations.
  8. For sure, great rim jobs are easy to obtain in Thailand !!!
  9. Vietnam mentions a 3 to 7 day timespan to handle and deliver the visa for 90 days with no asking for unnecessary support documents. Thai Consulates mention 1 month processing time, that can be more if a zealous consulate employee wakes up one morning and decides to ask for some more support documents via the e-visa application. In other words, wealthy retirees and tourists looking for long stay in winter will obviously choose Vietnam. Far cheaper and nore farang friendy maybe ?
  10. The "boss" is usually the main supplier of the food chain I guess. But at least she seems to admit it. Some make abundant use of the generous flow of the monthly pension???? but do not manifest due respect and recognition.
  11. Medical community has mixed feelings, regarding the correlation between egg consomption and higher cholesterol levels (LDL - the bad one). Of course anything in moderation does etc etc etc..
  12. Western Union rates vary considerably depending from which country you send the cash. (and of course on which country and bank the recepient receives).
