  1. I wouldn't be surprised to see the Japanese manufacturer's returning some production back to Japan as they're all in dire financial trouble. Mitsubishi is pulling out of the world's biggest car market, China, and Toyota has run down production there significantly.
  2. "....when he accidentally recorded a group of Thai men drinking alcohol by the beach." Well there's your problem.
  3. In Thailand I think it's "Two for me and one for you".
  4. "They managed to get a confession out of him..." "Did you do it?" WHACK! "Did you do it?" WHACK! "Why did you do it?" WHACK! "Why did you do it?" WHACK! "Sign here please".
  5. No problem at all except alot of them are now having to leave Spain due to the Brexit debacle.
  6. Bit like the Brits on the Costa del Sol who live on fry ups, fish and chips, bangers and mash, steak and kidney pies and can't talk the lingo.
  7. So in 10 months time is a new PM chosen by just the 500 elected members of parliament or will there be another batch of 250 appointed senators in the mix?
  8. Thanks very much for the prompt replies. I'll ask at my Immigration Office next time in town and see what they say and will post whatever they suggest here too.
  9. Hi, I am currently on an Extension of Stay based on marriage to a Thai which is due for renewal November 11th. I have a trip back to the UK on October 20th returning to Thailand October 30th. Is it correct that I will need a re-entry permit before flying back to the UK or is it possible to apply for the extension before I fly back to the UK? Thanks for reading.
  10. So they receive an sms to get instructions from a Line account to install further software. Nobody deserves to be scammed but anyone who falls for this is a little short of grey matter up top.
  11. "....he has been helped by his special religious amulet and also blamed the wet road for causing the accident." Whilst this nonsense continues nothing will improve on Thai roads.
  12. If any family member of mine died on that island I'd want an intact body returned home for a proper autopsy not just one that says 'heart stopped'.
  13. ITV last broadcast in 2007, it's a media company in absolutely nothing but name especially when it's license was taken away.
  14. I use my ev for the school run in rural Thailand 120kms per day. Cost of fuel has gone from 300 bht a day in my pickup down to 90 bht a day in my ev. Ev gets topped up overnight every other day. Wish I'd bought it a couple of years ago as it's great.
  15. They get involved with a motorcycle gang and one of them gets murdered I guess.
  16. 15 and 13 years old out at 3am?
  17. Perhaps he thought he was being hired to prune a few trees.
  18. It matters not that you think he's inexperienced, millions of Thais like his policies and want him as Prime Minister. ITV is a media company in absolutely nothing but name and hasn't been one for at least 15 years. Defaming the monarchy. Shame we cannot argue that point. All I'll say is that reform is not defamation.
  19. I will never understand how in times like these an oppressive regime can rely on a police force or military to go out and tread on the populace they've sworn to protect. The vast majority of the police and military are ordinary people most likely held in contempt by the upper heirarchy of Thai society but nonetheless they will still point their water cannon, wield their baton's or fire their weapons at crowds who merely want an overwhelming result respected. I long for the day when the police and military join hands with these people, because they are the same, refuse to obey evil orders and say enough is enough, your time is over.
  20. If you stick with the strict definition yes it is.
  21. Technically coastal is within reach of the tide so as the River Thames is tidal as far up as Teddington London could be said to be coastal.
  22. The Democrats used to have mainstream support until they threw their hat into the ring alongside the coup makers. Result has been virtual annihilation over the last decade. Never has 'som nom naa' sounded so apt.
  23. Gosh they're determined to be relegated to a totally irrelevant party aren't they. Learnt absolutely nothing from the recent election results.
