  1. Then comes drought season when water will be rationed to compensate for the millions of gallons poured down the Songkran drain.
  2. Thais are great at copying; Changi has been doing this for decades.
  3. They are today talking about a 1000 baht departure tax to discourage people from spending baht abroad - is this on top of the 1000 baht re-admission fee to preserve your Extension of Stay status?
  4. I chose this airline because of the dearth of other options. It was the worst flight ever & the most expensive in 18 years of return family visits; no overhead luggage space; no free booze; indifferent staff; bossy ground staff on the return flight; oh and a two hour delay most of it sitting on the plane!
  5. The first group come for the gambling; the 2nd group just come.
  6. It's certainly not decreased in Tops near me.
  7. They could always sell their gold chains; unless they've been to Pattaya recently!
  8. Incredible! They'll be saying those golf ball finders can detect bombs next.
  9. They use twigs to warn of hazards ... eventually.
  10. No security at the gate? 'The investigative team is currently using CCTV footage from the escape route to track down the criminals.' I knew there was a use for all those underused cameras dotted all over town.
  11. The RTP husband has now been found to be complicit & facing charges; he has first been dismissed. Yes it shocked me too.
  12. No Hi-So goes to jail (unless they've offended the higher-ups). By the time all the appeals have been heard all will have died of old age. LOL = Land of Lawyers.
  13. Thank you. As a UK National I am unable to play the UK lottery except by a proxy.
  14. There used to be one for RTP but it closed down through overuse.
  15. I'm betting a relative of one of the organisers. So foreigners can't win?
  16. All foreign firms who wish to yield 51% of their companies to Thailand, please form an orderly queue.
  17. I wondered how long it would be before one Thailand's finest would be implicated in the crime of the Century. After all they seem to be involved in everything else crooked.
  18. After the retirement of the old mayor, the new mayor's brother-in-law was appointed to be the new bi-annual sand supplier.
  19. Is the potassium added to the soil along with weedkiller and insecticide?
  20. It depends on your definition of 'working'! Thais have a genetic pre-disposition to idleness.
  21. In the land of lawyers? I think you are being very optimistic.
  22. Another victim of mummy/granny love which convince Thai men they are the centre of the universe.
