This is something the Australian couple should read.... Forewarned is forearmed and all that!

Round these fakrs up, cut their balls off and then feed em to the pigs. Not their balls tho... Pigs might choke on them.

Too fast for the conditions?.... Seems about right. Some people never learn, slow the freak down. Hydroplaining (?) .

Maybe the foreigners have bigger brown envelopes for Mr Plod

Makro normally acknowledge me as a farang, stamp the printout without even checking the trolley and I'm outta there. Never had a problem.

There are some very powerful laser pointers on Lazada. Ones that can even light a cigarette. I bought a 30mW Superfire one about 2 weeks ago. Thought I'd take it back to NZ with me... But NO. Completely illegal unless you are a member of an astrology group/company or part of the Defence Force or Police. Even having one on your person is a chargeable offence. You also cannot give, sell or buy one unless you are as above. When I was working in the Middle East, I took several lasers back to NZ. But times have changed. I'll keep my 30mW one here to scare away the birds. Even our oldest dog doesn't like the laser. Young pup doesn't care.

Back in NZ a lot of tour guides are actually foreigners on working holidays. They pick up in all the things kiwis take for granted, thereby being a good guide.

Luv your sarcasm. And who would have told the head of the tour business because as sure as the sun rises he personally wouldn't have known squat otherwise. Or what's that phrase... No sh*t Sherlock!

Even if it's fake!.... Just ask the PM

In following news it was reported that an uneven footpath on road 304 near the U turn has been subsequently repaired.

Now what possibly could go wrong...

Good luck to them I say. If they can afford that lifestyle then that's great. I hope their dream house gets built and the standard of work is top notch. There's a lot of wishful thinking but anything is possible here in the land of loan sharks and dodgy investors. Phuket wouldn't be my 1st choice but each to their own.

I'd say someone ratted him out. Likely a competitor or another guide. I wonder if you'd get done for 'showing' friends about?

I'm surprised the RTP get away with such poor performance. They are a bit more proactive in Chiang Mai but in hindsight it was probably more of a money making venture. Lots of tourists on scooters so a lot more 'road blocks' to check licenses and helmet wearing. I don't think the RTP gave a damn about the road safety but we're more concerned in getting a days worth of baht as fast as possible.

Yeah what's with that? Even back in NZ at supermarkets you see people slouched over the shopping trolley. The bloody thing is for carting groceries not a support structure for fatties. To me they seem just lazy.

“Sorry to bother you, sir, but there’s another salesman out here—you want me to tell him to go to heaven?”
