  1. So next month's bill will be 3 hours down on this one?
  2. I've got doubts about the last one.
  3. Now I understand the word 'priceless' in the headline. If it was worth anything, she'd sell it.
  4. enhance local officials bank balance. As Bradiston above points out this means a long, pointless, petrol-wasting drive with its resultant impact on the market. Watch the crowd vote with their 'feet'.
  5. These are officials whose job it is to eradicate corruption! Now I understand how Big Joke got his name.
  6. I don't understand why any foreign company would want to surrender 51% of its shares to Thailand; particularly in countries where Thais are treated fairly.
  7. Why would employment rates decline? It has remained at a fictitious 98+% for years.
  8. Budget v Health - hmn? A non-contest in T-Land.
  9. When I can find a week with Immigration open fulltime, I need to go back for a re-entry permit. I'll have a mask handy to wave at him.
  10. There seems to be some sort of big bike convention on locally. On Sunday Sukhumvit was swamped by three or four hundred roaring bikes all travelling towards Sattahip.
  11. I've got déjà vu. I worry sometimes that I've got a kind of old-age Alzheimer's and keep reading yesterday's stories today.
  12. The rude bouncer on the door at Immigration nagged me about not wearing a mask when he admitted me a week back. I rummaged in my bag as if I had one & got past him!
  13. IF Plod's heart was in this search, the Aston Martin's driver would be arrested within an hour. They managed to track four jailbreakers over 500 kms + a change of vehicle. A prominent (AKA rich) local however is another matter.
  14. But how many of them work? They wouldn't last a week in the West.
  15. He was confident he would win the election, eradicate corruption and continue to be Prawit's best friend. I have little faith in his misplaced confidence.
  16. Why would you need to borrow money when you can afford to buy 500,000 bahts-worth of dogmeat? Why is the money lender bleating, he's just got two new pups out of the deal.
  17. But, most importantly, all commissions have now been banked. 'As of the previous month, the Pink Line’s construction progress stood at 96.43%.' So no progress in a month? How can a building project pay its workers and achieve nothing in a month; the workers can't all be Thai surely?
  18. And Pattaya Plod suspect murder! No flies on these guys!
  19. Luckily she had recently renewed her insurance policy.
  20. 300,000 of them were arrested in Pattaya for various offences like: not having their passport on them; shy-willie syndrome preventing a drug test; being in possession of a white face; having a dangerous person on their weapon.
  21. Meanwhile the EC are contemplating investigating Pita PM-elect as he has some shares in a media company that ceased functioning in 2008!
  22. Does this mean it will get cooler? My elec bill was another 500 baht more than last month's highest ever.
