Money would be better spent on old-fashioned justice. An eye for an eye.

I would change their habits. Mandatory death immediately by firing squad for all users, dealers and their families if the families have wealth all of a sudden.

No body buying or using will dry the market quickly.

I am sick of treating these useless vermin

What you need to do is to take a deep breath.......

There are 2(3?) tests on renewal of 5 year licences.

Colour-blindness test and a depth-perception/braking reaction time test. Admittedly not hi-tech.

Perhaps if I ran it through Google Translate....

Don’t understand your idea of a quiet location at the start or being screwed

Its on a 6 lane highway, with cars doing 140 plus all day long down it.

Accidents every other day.

Are we talking about the same location ?

Or do you have a hearing problem ?

Very funny

No, you have a comprehension problem....

Even funnier

Yes it's a good deal, considering Back Fabrik sells their take-away precooked schnitzel for 59 baht! Then you have to take it home and make the rest of the meal yourself!

Poor guy got screwed like so many others trying to do business in Pattaya. I stopped by there just a few days after he opened at the present location. He felt it was a nice quiet (and cheaper) location. Within a few days, that quiet side road became the detour for the sewer construction on Soi Watboon. Nothing but tandem-trailer 10 wheelers and car after car speeding past his "quiet" location....

It;s back to being quiet now and worth stopping by. He is also baking bread there, though I think Back Fabrik has the edge there.

not that I am a scaredy cat, but for the next few weeks it might be a better idea to keep a low profile as far as citizenship

The problem is, who is "they". I never meant to imply or refer to Thais or any other nationality or group. If you feel the need to drape yourself in the US flag and fly it from the top of your house or condo or car or motorbike then go ahead and do so.

No, you implied that any American flying the flag could be in danger for the next few weeks. I think you are for a fact a "scaredy cat." Otherwise, why the thread?

I countered that it's no more dangerous than it has been. Terrorists have hated all "infidels" for a long time and terrorism is nothing new.

I'll fly my flag anytime I want to, and if they want trouble with me they can bring it.

Hey Neversure...

Your government thinks it's more dangerous.

As for calling people schoolyard names, why don't you put your money where your mouth is?

Pattaya has many custom T-shirt vendors. Get one that has your flag on the front and "Bring it on!" on the back and take a stroll through the Arab parts of town....

Nah, didn't think so...

The moral dilemma is how to treat your enemies. If you lower yourself to adopt their tactics, you have removed the difference between you.

Interesting to note that UG is always present in these topics, defending all and every action of the US Government.

He loves America so much, yet refuses to live there......

^^

Oh no, an elitist!

Bread very good. Pastries so-so.

i love good pastries. Been eating them for decades . Even briefly considered becoming a pâtissierière but couldn't handle the hours or the weight gain!

Really. I've looked at that site many times but it's just useless for me as I don't read Thai.

I can use both one2car and taladrot because they both have drop-down menus with the manufacturers and models in English.

Yet a lot of posters refer to it and I want entry to all those re-sale bikes.

Their search engine sucks and I don't have time or inclination to look at every listing...

What am I missing?

At the parking lot of Home Works (right in front of the furniture shop) there's a stand from a company I believe.

VERY expensive......

Ah. It seems to be ok now

I swear it wasn't my imagination!

For the record, Windows 7 Home Premium (legit) and Firefox 34. I just updated to 34 so maybe that was it.....

I've had a problem responding in a thread unless I quote a previous post for a few days now.

After typing a reply, there is no option to add reply.

New topic , not a problem, as you can see.

Egads. Just don't buy your eclairs there then. Anyway nobody NEEDS an eclair anyway. Tip -- definitely avoid San Francisco or the 10 dollar toast there might put you over the edge.

On a trip back to Canada earlier in the fall, I noticed that most pasties in the supermarkets were about 60 baht each. Very high quality as competition is fierce.

On the other hand, pastries were often on sale for 30 baht each.

His bread is very good. His pastries are only so-so.

would have been more interesting if he said about the many Asian gold traders OF BULK BULLION (1000+ once are charging 50% OVER spot price.......$1800 an once) for almost 2 months now ......they know whats really going on with gold (massively manipulation and over sold in the COMEX but they are saying nothing)

This would be interesting if you could provide some links.

As a Commonwealth citizen I lived in India for almost 7 years in the '70's, unfettered by the need for a visa.

Haven't been back since 1977, even though I've been only a few hours flight time away for the past 12 years. A few months ago I thought it might be time to change that, but was put-off by the paperwork and time to obtain a visa in Bangkok. I was aware that VOA was in the offing and decided to wait a little while.

Now I see that as a Canadian I am not eligible for VOA, even though my home country is chock-a-block with former Indian citizens!

Same as the UK, also with more than their fair share of formerly Indian citizens. WTH!

Chico, you da man!

Sheesh, the people that get their hands on a computer these days...

I use the Schick 3-blades disposables. I used to bring the packs you buy at Costco but lately they are for sale here. Not everywhere but I think at Tesco.

Last year i bought the 5 blade non-disposable razor that sells at Watsons but although they give a great shave they are too inaccurate under the nose. Went back to the Schick 3-blade disposables.

Last month on a trip home I bought the 5-blade Schick non-disposable razor, advertised by them as their best ever. Same issue as the Watsons razor. Great shave but not good under the nose. After a few times touching up with the 3-blade, I gave up using it and went back to using the Schick 3-blade disposables. Great razors.

I should note that both brand of 5=blade razors have their own method of trimming ie under the nose. Neither work well for me. The 3-blade just fits in under the nose. No issues.

All of them...

Sorry, but a bad day driving around Pattaya today...

The roads everywhere are an absolute mess! Potholes upon potholes. They really have no shame...

I'm not new to Pattaya, I've been driving here for 12 years.

I love PirateBay!!

In Chonburi province had to go to the main licensing office in Chonburi city to obtain international d/l. Will probably be the same in the province you live in.

It occurs to me that most of the above posters would benefit from reading about the blind men and the elephant.....

Freezing cheese is a no-no.......
