  1. Unfortunate choice of 'Ignite' considering the rampant burning in Thai agriculture and the resulting disastrous air pollution.
  2. It takes a particularly special kind of moron to drive a drug loaded car through a police checkpoint on a known trafficking route with the car horn continuously sounding.
  3. "...the fountain's mechanics require meticulous upkeep" Well there's your problem.
  4. ".....expressing the need to await the monk’s explanation regarding the video" I was collecting alms from the home of a young man when he asked if we could discuss the latest reforms of the monastic order. I suggested we go somewhere a little more private. It was there that I suddenly slipped on a freshly mopped floor just as a sudden gust of wind blew off the man's loose shorts. It was then that he unfortunately fell on top of me and I regret to say his penis unfortunately entered my body. As far as I'm concerned that is the end of the matter.
  5. "Under the new agreement, Airbus Services will install 12 business class seats on each A320ceo, equipped with backrests reclinable up to 8 inches." Pretty underwhelming level of recline and hardly seems worth the extra cost of business seating on these narrow body short hauls.
  6. Thai mother in law has petty serious mental health issues. Depression and schizophrenia amongst them. All the care she seems to receive is a trip into hospital every few months to get another bag of prescription drugs. In the over 20 years wifey and I have been married the MIL has never had any counseling for her problems.
  7. UK has the same law. It is called 'Theft by finding'. You are obligated to return anything to the owner or hand it in at a Police Station.
  8. Any religion is a scourge on the planet. One of wifeys friends recently converted from Buddhism to Christianity and has been ostracized by many of her friends and family for no good reason.
  9. "...procurement of a submarine with a “low-quality” engine..." Stand by for a defamation suit for that remark.
  10. After beating his brother to death with a table leg, if it goes to court he won't have a leg to stand on.
  11. The only way they'll qualify for the finals, expensive though.
  12. "Police have charged Jampa with intentional murder under Section 288 of Thai Criminal Law, which carries severe penalties including the potential for life imprisonment or even the death penalty." Life imprisonment isn't going to be that long is it. In reality he won't even make it to the next amnesty.
  13. Not to worry, the organisers public liability insurance is sure to cover all damages right?
  14. Could have served in Northern Ireland, the conflict there spanned the 70's to the 90's.
  15. Surely wearing that jacket disqualifies somebody from holding office.
  16. How can a fake cop carry out the scam at a Police Station?
  17. "Thanks for voting PT, now <deleted> off"
  18. ".....the two had been drinking together before the argument took a violent turn" Should be in any Thai journalists cut'n'paste to save time.
  19. Read it sometime ago, sorry can't find the link although there is a good post below with similar details.
  20. You can get the increased amount as soon as you return. If you stay in the UK for 6 months or longer the increase becomes permanent.
  21. Thai father in law had terminal lung cancer about 4 years ago and towards the end was in alot of pain. He was only given morphine in the last few days something I considered very cruel withholding of pain relief. Nobody should be allowed to suffer in such pain when there is a simple way to alleviate it to near zero.
  22. "The Thai government is keen to fast-track the project...." The Thai Govt Parliament first approved initial proposals of a HSR Network in October 2010. Fast tracking left the station years ago leaving a long haul the only alternative.
  23. Because you get fined the full amount if you pay into an official account. If you agree to pay a reduced fine without receipt you're directed to the personal account. It's a way of saving some money. Agree, the officer is a moron for involving his gik's account. Should have just asked for a cash handout as everyone knows what going on anyway.
  24. Yeah, given me a couple of tips in the past.
  25. Maybe it can be built next to the world's tallest flagpole that never got built.
