  1. Finnair was the only company NOT serving free alcohol (at prices roughly the same as uranium). I checked this later. My complaints earned me some points in their club which I have already withdrawn my membership from. I sat for 14 hours with my overhead bag between my knees because there was no room. Aged 80 this left me with severe cramp.
  2. Each someone has friends and relatives who are thinking about visiting you until you warn them. Each negative story continually alienates the ex-pats who will warn travellers not to stroke wild dogs and/or breathe.
  3. Have the Indians shared the name of their Insurance broker with the Russians?
  4. Meanwhile Pattaya Plod were raiding more than 10 restaurants for serving beer after hours.
  5. I paid £1100 with Finnair and received the most abysmal service I have ever endured in over 65 years of air travel.
  6. Is this the Mafia one based in Phuket airport?
  7. He only ever travels on roads closed to other users in A/C comfort with a copper on duty every ten metres. It's not safe to even walk on Thai roads let alone run if you want to remain rabies-free.
  8. I thought tourists came here to see the temples? I would imagine it would matter seriously to tourists who return home with rabies or lung cancer.
  9. In the newspapers which is from where many tourists form an impression of countries they'd like to visit.
  10. How many tourists like packs of wild dogs; bent cops; Chinese Triads; carcinogenic air; plastic pollution?
  11. Which is tarnished every day by men in brown uniforms.
  12. On one of my honeymoons in Mexico my new bride went for a swim in the Pacific an hour after landing; her wedding ring fell off. I borrowed a metal detector & searched for hours in vain. The police report was sufficient to ensure our insurance paid for a better ring.
  13. Does the sick mother explanation carry the same weight with Plod as the other pathetic excuses used to excuse criminality: wet roads; brakes failed; micro-sleep?
  14. I think you have misread my statement. I lump poor policing, wild dogs and treating women as 2nd class citizens as evidence that Thailand is a Banana Republic.
  15. Sleep easy now - Pattaya Plod will be questioning everyone at the station to check their alibis hold up to scrutiny.
  16. It doesn't matter where they put the drains or how big so long as that disappearing beach sand gets renewed twice a year.
  17. Thailand - the hub of Foreign Affairs. No wonder Trump pronounced it Thighland.
  18. This is the tip of the iceberg - many cases go unreported. Thailand's attitude to women; dogs and police label it as a backward country
  19. How much did the farang have to pay the girl he groped the other week also on Walking Street?
