  1. This is the Q&A, Ask the Consular Team forum, but I don't think the consular team are still reading it, although (AFAIK) it was them that started it. Nothing more recent than 2020 on its pages. EDIT: Correction, the consular team has posted recently.
  2. I don't have a high regard for Thai police. But, holding a police officer in a headlock and taking away his firearm!!! I fully expect that lengthy prison sentences will follow (unless the two perps can afford to pay their way out))
  3. Seems obvious that the guy was drunk and not capable of giving consent to having the tattoo. I'd say that the tattoo "artist" (and any of his prankster mates) should be prosecuted for assault. Plenty of non permanent pranks are available if you need your fun.
  4. If I recall correctly, the drilling (30m deep) including pipes and pump to the surface, cost 19,000 THB. Then I had to connect the water and power to the house myself and fit some valves to separate the house supply from the garden irrigation (maybe 3 or 4 thousand - plus my own hard labour). No solar (maybe later) @owl sees all could probably tell you whether your quote is reasonable.
  5. Unless I've missed something, I think your calculation is a bit off. 24 tonnes is 24,000kg. 1 cubic metre of pork weighs a little more than 1 cubic metre of water (1 tonne). So 24 tonnes would occupy the space of approx. 24+ cubic metres.- less than one 40' container.
  6. When my wife had a bore hole drilled on her land near Surin, the drilling rig arrived on the back of a normal size pick-up. I guess the size of the rig will depend on the depth of the bore and the soil/rock. Not my photo, but similar to this ... and very, very rusty.
  7. Yes, he's still on page 1. The leaning tree was still upright in those days.
  8. Seems like a fair verdict and they deserve prison time for their neglect. Maybe (hopefully) other parents of disturbed kids will learn something from this, but I doubt it.
  9. I agree, but I would prefer if they were kept in the dark about cheese. I often find bogof deals in Big C when cheeses are nearing their "sell by" date. IMO these cheeses are even better tasting than when they were fresh on the shelves, but the locals are not buying them. I love me a ripe Brie or Camembert, especially at half price.
  10. According to that, I'm an Aries and my wife is an Aquarius - but we were both born in July.
  11. Exhibitionism and voyeurism are very common sexual fetishes. Both are displayed in this topic. Personally, I think it's harmless so long as everyone involved is an adult.
