Two Estonians fined for smoking on Finnair flight into Bangkok
mikebell replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Finnair is bad at everything. They charge exorbitant prices for on-board alcohol; there are insufficient overhead lockers; now they fail FIVE times to stop two selfish <deleted> from smoking. -

'The exact cause of the fire is still under investigation.' As is the source of the one million baht she didn't put in the bank? -

mikebell replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Wasn't it yesterday there was a parade of high-ranking RTP officers strolling down WS & milking the photo-ops? -
Pattaya Police Stop Suspicious Motorcyclist, Find Drugs and Gun
mikebell replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
A ground-breaking first! I've been in this area over five YEARS & seen ONE cop out doing his shopping. They don't even show up for the traffic mayhem during rush hour. -

Ripley's 'victim' is a painter; they view a Caravaggio; their view is of stunning Italian coastline; it's difficult to tell if the Picasso on the wall is from his 'blue' period. There's a discussion about how hideous the colours of a dressing gown is. For all that it's riveting.

But why shoot it in Black & White? I am terrified neighbours will call round and think I don't have a colour TV. Only one episode in and find it very slow after 'Renegade Nell'. I just started 'A Gentleman in Moscow'. Ewan McGregor stars despite sporting the most ludicrous false moustache I've seen on TV!

Russian man arrested in Pattaya for illegal trade linked to a suicide
mikebell replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
It took Plod 3 years to find this activity. I can point to a dozen addresses where this goes on; AND they're not FAKE! -
Thai Tourists undeterred by Taiwan earthquakes for Songkran
mikebell replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Even the Thais are fleeing Songkran. I'd risk an earthquake to avoid Pattaya Waste-of-Water Festival. I went to Makro yesterday & can now withstand three weeks of famine and flood. -

The Ambassador Hotel Na-Jomtien is 20 clicks from U-Tapao. Watch this space. Its population increases by 300% at weekend as Malay men cross the border for Thai Oats. -

Pita bids farewell to parliament, calls for cabinet reshuffle
mikebell replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Agree 100%. Going back nearly 20 years I remember a Thai politician urging Thai women to marry farangs. They rarely stoop to the violence dished out by Thai men; nor do they flee in the face of morning sickness. There are two more teaching graduates thanks to my intervention + every year at least 3 of my friends and family add to the tourist numbers. Malaysia seems to understand the value of ex-pats. -
Navy Might Get Both Submarine And Frigate Next Fiscal Year: Suthin
mikebell replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The economy is going down the drain and they are (perhaps) promising a frigate AND a sub! Neither are any good against unarmed students. -
Mango madness: Online frenzy over black streaks yields revelation
mikebell replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Meanwhile people are dying from carcinogenic air; dangerous roads. The Thai public have just seen a stolen election; the top two cops accused of corruption yet the populace is buzzing about mangos.
