Nah. Got no idea what you're talking about. I just see millions of Russians and Chinese that I didn't used to see especially in Pattaya. 50 years ago I don't remember hordes of Russians like I do now also I've noticed a few backpacker type, eyes glazed from Datura, whatever...

If it's your job to guard a place you can't walk away.

"true" ignorance. "attempting "?????? What are you talking about?

That is a very uncharitable point of view. Also it's very vindictive. He deserves to walk free. It's the police and the architecture of law that deserves punishment. They are committing crimes against individual's freedoms all over the state at the moment. This kind of behaviour only adds to reputation of the police. Today they imprisoned a history teacher for THEFT because she had confiscated her kids IPads. They were seven years old. The mother had every right to confiscate the phone.

I would be tempted to leave a couple of loaded rat traps on top of my clothes

"Background checks revealed that both men were already on a Tourist Police watchlist of individuals flagged as high-risk for in-flight theft.: That's a bit big brother

Alcohol isn't cheap here.

Thank you

Which is a lie

Let's just hope he does ok and does 'soft' time.. He just an old man, ffs.

Don't be absurd and ignorant- he just a dealer- change the word by one letter and it's spells 'healer'.

No.

Surely they can pick up some English?

Do you need deer hunting?

Why go to a place and try and change it?

You can find it in many newspapers but not the Guardian.
