    Except for Thai police.

    Are ladyboys allowed to join the RTP?
  3. mikebell
    Thais laugh at the very idea of work.
  4. mikebell
    How many of the 600,000 above fall into the 2nd category?
  5. mikebell
    The Thai section of this helpful manual has a chapter entitled 'Road to Suicide.' There's a section on the correct way to run a red light and, in the unlikely event of being stopped by a Thai policeman, the correct amount of on-the-spot fines for the offence of driving with a foreign face.

    QED. 'It's an IQ thing.'

    Thanks from me too. I can't believe there's so many FREE books available.

    Loved Herbert (The Fog etc.) Went to UK about 3 years back & couldn't believe the cost of 2nd hand books in Charity shops. I bought so many I got dinged for 90 UKP at MAN on the way back!

    RTP are not just a laughing stock but a blight on the reputation of Thailand every day they don their uniform. What wallies they look with their Shepherd's crooks!

    No worries - RTP will save the day.

    Both boxing champions; the Council workers never stood a chance.

    Do Indians stay in half decent hotels?
  13. mikebell
    That amount of damage looks to have been caused by excessive speed.
  14. mikebell
    every other road user. They are very competitive and will empty their tank to get one place ahead of you at the next red light. It's an IQ thing.
  15. mikebell
    Sounds like an ideal Thai cop.

    A police force; a judiciary; moral fibre; ethics?
  17. mikebell
    Band-wagon jumping; vote-catching. Do Thais ever have an original thought? They are great at copying and kneejerk responses but there's never any proactive movement.
  18. mikebell
    Agree with Russell above. The main question concerns the RTP's reluctance to do anything about the obvious bad apples in their rotten barrel.
  19. mikebell
    Thailand's judiciary does not rock; it rolls with the prevailing wind causing baht notes to rustle.
  20. mikebell
    Another public official grabbing his five minutes of fame by stating the bleedin' obvious.
  21. mikebell
    Did the guy take a dope test before he became a parent? People with an IQ of less than 60 should not be allowed to breed.
  22. mikebell
    Totally agree. Cops are a protected species universally hated and feared by the public. The RTP allows this atmosphere to persist thus breeding bullies and cowards. Thailand will continue to be a Banana Republic till it gets a proper police force.
  23. mikebell
    Locking the barn door after the horse has bolted. Typically Thai; reactive not proactive.
  24. mikebell
    Some hefty commissions to be had here on this ludicrously unnecessary deal. Who will Thailand be defending themselves against? China are already invading from within.

    I'm going round in circles looking to book for July/August. I don't want to go Middle East as I like the long flight - 2 gins/wine/cognac + Valium & it's time for breakfast. Can anyone recommend a site which is easy to follow. Tried Skyscanner & there's all sorts of extras like baggage/seat booking. The shortest layover is Air France or Finnair.
