    Jeez, that fitment of batteries was a fire waiting to happen. I guess the last bus inspection somehow missed that rats nest of wiring.

    Cheap in the UK then if you compare average wages in the UK and in Thailand.

    Where does it say he was intoxicated/drunk?

    He's probably Dutch.

    It seems to be all about the money and little to do with love. Demands a wedding and when no dowry is available reports the father for sexual assault.

    Crazy how much money is involved in cockfighting here. Wifeys uncle had his flock culled during the bird flu epidemic several years ago. He was very upset as his best ones used to sell for around 150,000 bht each.

    Thai reconciliation is different.

    It's almost always villagers who kill straying elephants to protect their crops. Electric wires, snares, poison or shooting, take your pick, are the usual methods.

    I look forward to Pattaya Police announcing the prosecution of all the lorries, cars and motorcycles running with non-standard lights.

    Whoever wrote this article desperately needs to learn the definition of 'pioneering'.

    Can't see Thailand getting a GP especially if they propose yet another boring street circuit. Madrid has just been announced as the new venue for the Spanish GP from 2026 and is yet another street circuit.

    It was arson. Somebody poured fluid over the vehicle and set light to it. The video is on Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/14RCkGVJya/?mibextid=oFDknk

    20% daily rate is a bargain, 50% in our village for small loans.

    I'd wager it's a Chinese national who wants some work done on their property and has hired a team he knows and trusts from China. What's more telling is that they are prepared to pay significantly more than the going rate for local Thai labour.

    My money's on at least a 5 litre bottle.

    Seeing the knives on sale at the local market it was more likely "This is Sparta"

    Yes, in Prachinburi. Happens here alot as these small tyre repair shops never seem to have a proper cage surrounding the tyre when it's being inflated.

    "...the man would masturbate whenever he had no customers." Sounds like some sort of rain dance.
  19. edwinchester
    That is why sensible people inflate truck tyres that are in a protective cage.

    "Ms. Jantima broke down in tears and leaned on police officers for support" Were the Officers injured?

    Surprised the moron of a driver didn't say the curve reversed into the pickup. Always an excuse hardly ever an admission of "yes I was going way too fast".

    A vat hike to 15% would be a massive burden on Thailand's poorest. Those on a low income spend a higher proportion of their income on consumables so to have a sudden 8% hike would be savage.

    Yeah can easily happen. Can imagine him saying to himself "my 60 days must be up soon"

    Irresponsible dog owner and somebody with anger management problems, what could possibly go wrong. Feel sorry for the dog and chickens.

    "Residents are urging authorities to relocate stray dogs off the island...." A typical make it somebody else's problem response rather than tackle the problem at source and cull the packs of wild dogs.
