  1. Just don't go to The Dog's <deleted>.
  2. + rabies and other dog-borne diseases.
  3. Observant cops on the job. The perp gave his name as Mr. Pumpkin Head.
  4. The ditch water is to be sold to farangs during Songkran at the average price of a bottle of Moet.
  5. So not a little 'mistake'!
  6. 'Thailand votes for Peace in Europe' - well that should fix it if even the Generals have voted against war.
  7. Correction 'Accused' - no 'the'. American remake of Jimmy McGovern UK series.
  8. Season 2 of The Nevers. Season 1 of The Accused.
  9. Another success for Pattaya Plod! The thief was arrested by a member of the public and the police collected him later.
  10. How was this fortune amassed? Surely not out of his salary. Now he's laughing all the way to the bank after paying the 10K 'fine'! Thailand deserves all it gets if they don't confiscate this fortune.
  11. Did the above junket fly Thai air business class?
  12. U-tapao is greatly in need of a facelift as are the two bruisers in the picture. The website/email is a diabolical mess. (No answers to queries if written in English.) The facilities are threadbare with the upstairs lounge shabby; infested with mosquitos and totally unfit to welcome International travellers; you cannot buy a drink unless you have a Thai phone with Promptpay on it. With so few flights a day the staff treat their job as a game - three or four playing with the luggage scanning machine.
  13. Thai police investigating Thai police; can't see the problem here.
  14. Like the public burning of drugs or flour, the ceremony will be a dog and pony show.
  15. He has a snowball's chance in hell of winning; the floodgates would open.
  16. It was 11.30 am so broad daylight! How did she not spot a truck? Are motorbikes even allowed on the by-pass?
  17. Surely with 369 million he had enough to ensure Pattaya cops wouldn't touch him for life?
  18. Meanwhile the panel showed great concern about the toxicity of Thai air having set the safe level at twice that of Europe.
  19. I've had a long nail through a piece of wood under my back tire.
  20. The post above mine/yours echoed my sentiment. Do readers need emojis now to appreciate humour? Exaggeration for the sake of amusement is as old as the hills. Of course there is nothing funny about strafing students any more than using truncheons/rubber bullets/toxic spray. It is the silly idea that this offensive government would stoop to doing it that is funny.
  21. I actually got my flights; two 14 hour journeys to/from Helsinki. On both there was no room in the overhead lockers which necessitated having my carry-on luggage between my knees. I paid extra for window seats as I suffer from arthritis; leg cramp on top of this was excruciating; alcohol was available at a price way beyond my pension having paid double my usual fare. Aged 80 it was my 1st/last Finnair flight. I took my complaint a lot further than you but ultimately was offered some points in a club I would never use.
  22. And drowning scores of Chinese tourists?
  23. To celebrate my Thai niece's birthday, 3 farangs & Thai wife went to an eatery. She was our designated driver and managed to make a glass of wine last till the bill came. Swigging it down she rapidly spat it back into the glass along with a large dead lizard. We called the proprietor over having been there many times. He magnanimously decreed the 90 baht wine would be deducted from the 6K bill. It was our last visit; I reckon this generosity has cost him over a hundred thousand in lost custom since.
