  1. Now that would be a 1st. It's because the foreigners pay the police more than the locals.
  2. With the assisted dying bill passed in Parliament, he could just have waited till he got home.
  3. 'National Security Concerns' This is the lot that ban you from taking photos when landing/taking off from Utapao Airport in case you highlight the aircraft carrier that has never moved. (They've never heard of Google Earth.) It's also the same people that allowed a tanker of contraband fuel to escape at breakneck speed AFTER being arrested!
  4. I believe there's a way of blanking certain contributors; do it or just ignore & don't read crap: it's self-inflicted. Me, I actively seek out the writer and enjoy.
  5. Fake stories are called fiction. There is a complete section reserved for them in most libraries. They are designed to create pleasure amongst readers; make money for the writers (check out Lee Child); even educate the dullards.
  6. Thai law doesn't even apply in Thailand; particularly where hi-sos are concerned.
  7. Surely an occupation reserved for Thai Nationals.
  8. Unlike Thais who don't learn sufficient English in school so are useless at being tour guides.
  9. Did you have to go back the following day to pick up your passport? I was baffled by the fact that after all documents are checked the IO doesn't grant the visa there and then. I assume it's so Immigration can collect a share of the 40 baht car parking fee for the two minutes it takes to collect your passport the next day.
  10. The only way to get Pattaya's invisible police to work.
  11. A rare moment of congratulation from me for Pattaya BIB. I'd love to know how this was achieved without 'acting on information received'.
  12. Tried to find it but TPB seems to have stopped working for me. Anyone give me a new favourite address?
  13. I thought four-letter words were censored on this site?
  14. I thought Walking Street was a RTP sub-station with a permanent police presence? Does the rest of the invisible force wander round in the dark with its eyes shut?
  15. It's so startling when a Thai accepts responsibility for his wrong doing that it has to be commented on by the media.
  16. Callous. A life sentence behind bars should be standard.
  17. No other country would accept 50 Thai police officers.
  18. Plod will investigate but never does anything about this simple maxim.
  19. There is a genre known as Fiction which brings untold pleasure to millions.
  20. Me (and apparently - you.) I enjoy his distinctive writing style. You're not meant to take his stories as gospel.
