    Thank you; my guestimate was .01 wrong?

    83 on October 4th.

    I've read every word above as I do my BP reading daily & keep a chart on which I chronicle my weight on the 1st of each month. Also I clock when I start/finish a litre of Gin (13/14 days); how many times/when I excercise. Now my question to all those above is, about my Diastolic reading which is low. (often in the mid 60s). Today 118/68 PR 66. Aged 82.75 - should I be concerned?

    Good old Doddy.

    They do the jobs, Thais feel are beneath them.

    Another 12 year old on a motor bike! Presumably with no licence or insurance? Kinyara?

    What a lovely description of the police's idleness and ignorance of the daily death toll.

    How does one play snooker amid all that rubbish with dogs interrupting your concentration?

    Nothing in it for them?

    Thank you.

    My comment was about Thai drivers' penchant for ignoring such niceties as tax disc (insurance); and licences which is one of the most popular avoidance in road crimes. It might also interest you to know that over 90% of traffic fines are unpaid. (Guess which nationality is most responsible for this.) If you run your eye down the responses, you might just notice your reply is out of step with most farang contributions.

    Sounds like a successful estate agency.

    So less than 2 months ago he had been arrested in possession of a gun. Why was he back on the scene of the crime?

    Like the 1000 baht no-helmet fine, it will just fade into oblivion to be resuscitated near month's end.

    I love a cultured debate.

    Could you PM me his email please.

    Sounds like proper police work; not the usual 'acting on information received' SOP. A rare compliment for Pattaya Plod.

    A really stern stance would be the confiscation/destruction of any boat involved in people smuggling. No boats = no illegal immigrants.

    Journalism = Stating the Bleedin' obvious.

    Not on most Thai cars; none on motor bikes.

    Pattaya police will go to extraordinary lengths to curry favour with the public.

    from the employers of these illegals to save on the wage bill.

    Why would a Bangladeshi have 200 Ringit + 800 Singapore dollars?

    In the past I have been to Phyathai and always received good treatment. This year I tried to book an appointment and started getting messages & phone calls from India! I remember there used to be a very competent farang in charge but he's obviously been replaced.

    The Chakri Naruebet, is the Thai aircraft carrier with no aircraft. This decrepit hulk is now moored in the harbour at Sattahip. It is advertised on Tripadvisor – ‘For Thai citizens only and have to check before going because the ship is still active and go out for operations sometime.’ Not sure when it was 1st acquired nor when it last took to the seas.
