    They are invisible most of the day but produce a camera & the photo-cops swarm out of the woodwork.

    Fancy eating at a restaurant that allows dogs free rein!

    If you have a police record, don't Thais just change their name or become a politician?
  4. mikebell
    You need to be a multi-billionaire for that to work. I'm a UK pensioner!

    You can get jailed for playing Bridge in Pattaya, particularly if you are over 70!
  6. mikebell
    Well that should keep the police off the roads.

    How do you get 4000 friends? I don't know 40 people & that includes relatives. Mind you I'm 81 so some have died off!
  8. mikebell
    Agreed, but the number of public waste bins in Pattaya can be counted on the thumbs of one hand (except for 7-11s).

    Whilst riding the motor bike!

    This makes them easier to spot but if you live in Pattaya, cops are invisible and do nothing to alleviate the daily road kill. Rush hour is absolute mayhem at all junctions where there ought to be police preventing red-light runners.

    Thais bang on about the monarchy yet these small coins are refused. I was once rebuked for putting bank notes in my back pocket then sitting down on it!

    Pattaya is part of the Bermuda triangle where taximeters all over the city refuse to work. (This phenomenon affects the police too.)
  13. mikebell
    AKA police substitutes.

    I've stopped crying into my beer; I can't afford the beer any more.

    Meanwhile on the roads more Thais were killed than the number abducted by Hamas.

    like the LBs - no balls.

    as opposed to doing it illegally as they do now? I thought they were trying to eradicate 'persons of influence'?
  18. mikebell
    Whilst we are banging on about legal tender, what about 25/50 satang coins? They have the King's head on them but I have had them refused on buses and in convenience stores.

    'The police are committed to their efforts to' - 'tarnish the reputation of Pattaya,' In tomorrow's news an honest taxi driver will return two million baht left in his taxi by a heavily pregnant tourist and her aged disabled father.

    34 of his mates all wanting free lunches; travel; accommodation; in the name of democracy! As if 35 Thais could ever agree on anything to benefit others.

    Ironic that the photo is taken outside the Mint AKA Pattaya Cop Shop.

    A cop taking a selfie of him doing some WORK. A moment that needs recording for posterity in the annals of Pattaya Plod.

    I know - let's tax ex-pat pensions. Oh, where have they gone?
  24. mikebell
    A novel approach for RTP! '1,789 illegal and improvised firearms and 75,973 units of ammunition' - they could bag this much if they searched every taxi in Bangkok.

    There's a shortage of hotel workers because most Thais are lazy & prefer to watch the rice grow rather than work. Samui would collapse if it weren't for Myanmar workers supplementing the paucity of English speakers.
