He's not really sorry, just begging the Aussie to drop the charges and by the looks of it fatty is having none of it

I think you need to have a good hard think. Almost every retiree I know in Thailand uses an agent to facilitate their extension of stay. Not one of them has 800,000 in a Thai bank. I'm guessing the number of expats using an agent runs into the thousands. Do you think immigration will want to lose this source of income? No they won't, in fact if and that's a massive if these tax proposals ever become law, immigration and the agents will find a way around it, for a fee of course.

And yet all the scaremongers amongst us would have us all believe we were to be taxed for this and need to declare that. What a load of crap, I've thought all along it will all come to nothing and I still do. We all know why some of the self proclaimed experts would have us believe the nonsense. Wouldn't trust any of them.

Most of the Iceland stuff and Greggs is cheaper at Villa than Siamburi's so they're obviously marking the profits up a bit steeply. You could almost suggest he's ripping folk off. Part of what they were pulled by the FDA for I believe was buying frozen fruit and veg from Makro in kilo packs for say 89 Baht and then re-packing them in half kilo packs then selling them on to gullible punters for the same price. Good work if you can get it. I only rarely go there these days if I see they have a once in a blue moon bargain, as in my opinion since the current owner took over those are few and far between.

They're all at it. I bet there are a miniscule amount of high ranking Thai cops that haven't indulged in corrupt activity of some sort

You didn't say if you had a child with her or if you are still intimate with her? If the answer to both of those is no then I would suggest you move on from her

If I was you I'd start working out ways to minimize your inevitable financial losses which by the sound of it are not far away.

Nothing will happen that will affect the average Joe's amongst us. As has been said nothing has even passed through parliament yet for God's sake.

Could Mr Ahmet have accumulated his 300000 through Swedens generous benefits payments? But yes he was scammed and no doubt the local plod had their cut

I don't think the family were for paying off but the Judge and his associates is another matter. Possibly

There are also plenty of opportunists who think there is a fast buck to be made out of this nonsense and scare mongering helps their cause.

Immediately arrest the <deleted> with the knife and make an example of him. Lock him up in a cell with some gays

If I was the foreigner I'd start thinking about changing my car

Refuse to get divorced unless or until it suits you. Just move out and live you life.

How is this guy the father? He's not. He was getting his leg over with the child's mother for a year after the real father disappeared and whilst doing so enjoyed helping to take care of a cute baby. That's it. Why he has appeared after 48 years and why the girl wants to see him is slightly puzzling. The cynic in me......

That fckn Muslim scum has destroyed the UK as I remember it. Succesive governments and lefty do gooder bottom wipes are responsible for allowing the world's trash in and enabling them to stay. It's too late to reverse it now and it's only going to get worse

Many Thais borrow money without thinking about how they will be able pay it back. Doesn't look like he went without food or drink to fund any loan repayments

Treat all other road users as complete idiots and act accordingly.

And Brooke beans at 210 for a pack of 3. I think Brooke bean's are every bit as good as Heinze

Siamburi's is also a rip off on many items and has gone downhill since the present owner took over

I think if you can give them an address that you have an association with like a bank account and are still registered at a doctor's surgery then I can't see too many questions being asked. No need to volunteer information that is not asked for

I sometimes wonder how many members on here are shacked up with former bar girls/hoes and how many of them might I have had a liason with. I bet the ones that are with their ex cashiers lol are who you'd least suspect

Love it, wish there were more instances like this. I did notice one of security thugs jump up and initially go after the farangs. He must have been high on amphetamines and itching to dish out a beat down.

I always got the feeling that some of those motorbike rental places were run by the police or people very close to them and so did what they liked. It would never be a good idea to try and park too near them or in one of the spaces they believed to be theirs
