200 points was for users of international packages affected by the loss of their British IPTV supplier.

That includes me then.....still on zero points.

I've been waiting for that headline for 25 years.

Let's hope they do what they say.

I'm pretty sure I've read the same headline every year since I first arrived in 2001.

The good old days of 70 bht to the pound are long gone , , RIP GBP.

The last time it was 70 was over 10 years ago and we havent hit the lows of 2013 (44.13)...so cants see where the RIP comes in ?

You have walking around with your eyes shut or your head buried in the sand for the last 10 years at least

GBP was over 70 THB in 2008. Remember it well as we finished building our house just before the crash.

Wifey has quite a few friends employed in the public sector and they are really nice, friendly and decent people. The problem as I see it is that there is just not the work for them all. All seem to be sat around tapping their smartphones for hours during the day waiting their turn to shuffle a few papers before the next post or chat about last night's soap.

I won't go on about military numbers but at the army base near us there are recruits seemingly permanently giving the barb wire surround a nice fresh white coat of paint so safe to say numbers could be lost and nobody would notice.

Before their Facebook page went awol there was a promise of a 200 point credit as compensation for the weeks of problems. Anyone reading get the credit as mine still reads 0 points?

Seems I'm in the minority. He's a scumbag, worse than any of the immigrants he's vilified. We are known for standing our ground and fixing problems, not pulling up the drawbridge and hiding in our now, very little corner of the world. I am rather ashamed to be English.

I am also ashamed that you are English.

This man has done his job - a constant battler against the EU gravy train.

His job in the UK is done, he will continue as an MEP until we are out.

Yeah, he wants his life back....just not enough to give up the 100,000 euro a year gravy train he's on.

Well he just voted his self off the EU gravy train

Your logic is illogical

Far from it. He's on the gravy train, he professes to despise, until he resigns. Brexit is several years away so a nice little earner for him, all on the taxpayer of course.

I sure hope Thai people do not believe this story. But I am afraid they will and come pray by the tree.

I'm seeing 0 0 for starters.

"....noting that Thailand must follow the international law and respect human rights."

Which is dead easy when you're in a position to choose exactly what rights to respect.

Just shows he has the same lack of backbone as Boris Johnson.

If you're going to print such a tragic story a half decent translation would be respectful.

One wonders if the money wouldn't be better spent buying aircraft for the aircraft carrier so that it can at least operate as intended.

This probably doesn't help but I was watching Eurosport most of yesterday using ilikehd. Usual buffering and stuttering but it worked. Their feed is British Eurosport and as a last resort would be an option.

Worth it to see Cavendish pull the trigger over the last 150 metres

I buy the English and Sports package, 550bht a month.

Ahh....the sweep it under the carpet approach.

I think it's a fantastic service.

I pay 30b whenever there is a football match on that I want to watch, and that's it.

Fantastic.

All other TV shows, docos, series, movies are downloaded via torrents.

It's great when it works but this last month the streams have been very erratic even with a stable high speed connection. Really hope they get it sorted soon. Tour De France starts this weekend so I need Eurosport.

Seems like it, shame. When it worked, and it did for quite a while, it was an excellent service. Back to the real word I guess.

Anyone else see the ilikehd facebook page?

I'm just getting 'page cannot be found'

I'd like to hear from somebody more knowledgeable about karma before making further comment.

Two years for attempted murder and assault.

Compare with the 5 years threatened should anyone be caught using an e-cigarette.

Good luck with the 20 bht to 170 bht increase. When we lived in a Moo Baan there was rubbish strewn all over the place by those who'd rather live in squalor than hand over 20 bht a month.

Riding a bicycle in this country is tantamount to suicide

Been cycling here for 15 years....I'm not dead yet.

That is what you think!!!!

Ok, I died once but got better.

Could be bats. We had some in our roof that chewed up the plasterboard like that.

Well see! She said sorry, so everything will be just fine. Let her off easy because it's only her 7th arrest and she's so sorry.

The revolving door of the Thai justice system.

We have a few friends who are Police Officers in the RTP and one of their biggest complaints is how soon criminals are released either by lenient sentencing or by way of the annual amnesties.
