Korat Kiwi

That's right.... pretty much a classic movie. Funny as fak

Aaaah lock stock and 2 smoking barrels by any chance

Cheers for the heads up. I'm just out of Korat and local selection at Lotus'sss is abysmal. May head into the big smoke on the weekend and see what I can find at Tops.

You mentioned Whittakers, therefore you gotta be a Kiwi. Dammit... I do miss decent chocolate. I see in news back home some delinquent stole several hundreds of blocks from several shops. They caught the a-hole. Damn fine chocolate, up there with Mainland cheese. Top quality products

“Look. I just don’t feel the relationship is working out.”

Loch Ness mobsters

Sorry Bob but I couldn't resist posting this one: “Through the hoop, Bob! Through the hoop!”

He should have put you on dishes duty for a week!

Now that is creepy!

I had an almighty culture shock when I returned to NZ some 5 years ago. At a zebra/pedestrian crossing I stopped and looked both ways for traffic. The approaching vehicles stopped and let me cross. After being in Thailand for 7 years this took me by complete surprise. I'd forgotten that people actually follow rules in NZ. It was a nice feeling.

'They face serious charges, with investigations ongoing to unravel the full scope of this tragic event.' Time to get the wet bus ticket ready.

And don't forget mild heart attack...

90 day reporting obviously works!

A marked cross walk (pedestrian crossing) doesn't mean much here. A few weeks/months ago a foreigner got killed using one. Vehicles rarely stop let alone slow down when approaching one. You've gotta keep your wits about you when crossing any road in this country.

He was likely checking to see if he still had lead in his pencil...

500 baht and a Wai.... Job done

Looks like he's trying to do a runner again!

I think their fire tenders need an overhaul or the water pressure at the hydrant is particularly low. Looking at the videos, the amount of water and pressure to fight the fire is fairly pathetic. One could piss harder than what's coming out of the hoses. Local authorities need to fix that problem before any other fire occurs. I expect fire insurance companies will increase premiums as a result.

Sometimes it is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, rather than speak up and remove all doubt. I think this cap fits you well.

I just read a bit about that. It was exported to Thailand to be bottled here thus saving tax? It was selling in NZ for about the equivalent of 336 baht per bottle

They must have seen you coming! What's next the 4 Yorkshire men skit?

Like most action meetings in Thailand ...

I'd say the first mistake is criticising a Thai males driving ability... their poor egos don't take it kindly. Sure their driving maybe crap, but you put your life into their hands if you criticise them. How many reports to we read about these guys where loss of face cause them to react in a disproportionate way? Many have concealed weapons and aren't afraid to use them if 'provoked'. And they will have standby excuses for the Police in the aftermath. Piss weak really.

You can buy 'duty free' coming into Thailand. They have stores just before the customs gates when you leave the 'secure' area. Although most items are cheaper downtown and the last time I went through there were no staff at any of the customs counters.
