  1. It's like renewing the sand on the beach twice a year. The contractors have to be related to the mayor. Bali (the recipient of this sand) sends a Thank You card every Xmas.
  2. This the same story published yesterday. When Pattaya police do anything it's so newsworthy it makes headlines on consecutive days.
  3. Riding on the back step is illegal; if I were the assessor for the Insurance company. I'd mention this.
  4. Why is she working at that time of the morning?
  5. Well they're not looking very hard; most sois are brimming with plastic rubbish and dog dirt.
  6. A good photo - did the victim & thief pose for it?
  7. One with no security. Check out the guard on the gate, his sleep patterns and friends.
  8. It's not very interesting as it happens all the time. What is newsworthy, is the last sentence.
  9. I recall a baht bus crash some years ago when multiple children were killed when the driver and his wife had an altercation.
  10. Thank you for this. Because of my hearing disability HMRC have accepted my UK daughter as my proxy. DWP have ignored my frequent email requests. I've contacted an email for complaints twice in the last two months with no success! Like the Thai police they are answerable to no one.
  11. I switched off after the headline said 'say Pattaya Police.'
  12. 'Safty First.' This official notice adorns numerous building sites.
  13. Linking Pattaya police with the word 'diligently' is a bit of a stretch. Surely confiscating a bike with illegal papers puts the onus on the companies renting out these bikes (which contribute massively to Pattaya's parking problem.) Making it difficult to reclaim the bike would further discourage this practice.
  14. The reporter was happy to oblige.
  15. Standard Operating (Thai) Police procedure: if there's no baht to be made, do nothing till the uproar is too loud to ignore.
  16. I watched 'Eric' (TV series) with Cumberbatch - good characters/dialogue + a brilliant performance from Sherlock.
  17. If they named the restaurant, weekend bookings would treble.
  18. Police impersonating police. They've clear footage of two of the officers so it should be very easy to identify IF they were cops or not.
  19. I wish I had a baht for every time I've read variations of this story over the years. How does a pump for discharging sewage into Pattaya Bay's pristine waters suddenly go into reverse?
  20. Sounds like an almost total fabrication. I'm sure there are dubious products at The Made In Thailand market. (Guess where they are made.) How many bald tourists would go to a secluded spot to buy hair restorer? Sounds like sour grapes from locals who are jealous of these suspicious vendors.
