Blimey! Where do you shop? The only English I hear is 'No have' as the assistant can't be arsed to put their phone down. If you ask a question about the product they won't know anything.
The figures suggest 40 people a DAY die (but only if we accept figures at the scene). We get the same warnings about the SEVEN Dangerous Days at least twice a year. What is needed in Thailand to bring these horrific numbers down, is a police force.
I love a dog thread; it brings out the tree-huggers and besotted dog owners who hold themselves up for ridicule.
Thailand is 60 years behind civilised countries in this respect. Not a week goes by without a story of accidents caused by strays; humans disfigured by bites; all the fuss about hygiene whilst tonnes of dog-dirt/urine are distributed in every soi in the country; rubbish strewn by scavenging strays.
The do-gooders cannot see that allowing sick animals to continue in their painful existence is cruelty not kindness. The solution is obvious to anyone with an IQ of over 80 - a cull of all strays.
See Ralf above. My distances are extracted from a book I wrote when living in Bang Sare. Any exaggerations were for the purposes of humour as I was making the point that anyone seeking a licence had to drive on highways without one.
Things must be serious if the club is named & no attempt was made to censor Fahrenheit from the other fracas. It's the latest weapon in the police armory; Pay or Be Named.
Similarly I wouldn't eat chicken from street sellers that's been marinating in carbon monoxide for several hours by a man with no toilet facilities and guarded by a pack of wild dogs.
Never thought of that unless you can give the company a new photo. I always have six in readiness at Immigration along with my GCE Certificates & Sainsbury's Nectar card just in case!
