One of the joys of local journalism.

While some Thais do indeed need a kick in the rump over their bad littering habits, I dont think anything will improve until those in charge make it easier for people to dispose of rubbish. Just as there is a lack of rubbish bins in the city streets there is a lack of facilities to handle larger waste such as old furniture, white goods etc. Back home the local councils would have a truck coming around once or twice a year to collect old white goods, matteresses etc. for free. No such service exists here. Have you ever tried to get rid of an old mattress here?

Where do you put the brown envelopes?

Blaclisted due to Cannabis Are you sure it wasnt because of your spelling?

Shes been doing that same walk every night for 5 years ......finally its paid off!

What hole have you had your head in all your life?

Long time since I lived there but there used to be 2 in Perfect Place, Ram, Soi 164.

Everyone must wear a belt? Gee, its going to be hard installing seat belts on the roof of songthaews for the school kids.

That was my experience. I had an a/c in Bangkok but moved to Isaan. Earlier this year my card expired and I was told I would have to return to Bangkok for a new card. As that was not possible I decided to close the a/c and open one in my home province. One problem here is that you must have a long stay visa but bank staff cant read visa stamps so a letter is required from your friendly bloodsucking Imm Office for the tidy sum of 500 baht....not negotiable, no receipt, brown envelope away from the CCTV. Now some people on here will say that is not true, that you can get a new card anywhere on the face of this earth. Be warned!

If at first you dont succeed................................................

I cant say for others but I am a creature of habit. If I was one of these van drivers, and particularly considering the number of deaths like this over the years, I would make it a simple routine to go through my van at the end of each run. I really find it hard to believe that any adult would not do the same considering what you are carrying. RIP poor child and condolences to the parents.

Oh Prawit is such a funny man. He was guaranteed a career even outside the army or politics. And he always seems to have the time for a laugh or two.

I thought it was brilliant.

He advised people not to have door locks installed in the wrong way - especially if you live alone. I better jot that down somewhere.................

Yeah you can in Thailand and they do every day.

"Why are you eating chicken if you have a bad back?" It will make it worse according to my wife. A mate told me he explained to his Thai wife that it cost 5 baht every time the fridge door was opened and closed. After that he noticed every time after they did the weekly shopping the fridge door would be continuously open and remain that way until all the shopping had been put away. She was amazed the next elect bill was not greatly reduced lol.

If the RTP is so concerned about competition from outside then I seriously think they need to take a closer look at their business model. Secondly they need to think twice before taking shots at their traditional "bread and butter".

Mmm latex bar girls....any idea on the bar fine yet?

In other news today, TAT has announced Thailand voted number one destination in the universe for river rafters according to the International Have Glock Will Raft Association.

So the accused admits she cannot control herself, has medical certificates to prove it, and yet remains a serving police officer?

Reefer Madness 2022 style?

A wise man once told me "demand everything in writing but give nothing in writing".

I stumbled upon it looking for the series. Extremely good, cant beat those Aussie acters.

Maybe they dont have motor bikes and cars where they come from. ????
