Might it be easier to tunnel under your garbage bin, and re-route the pipework. More space to work in.

Loong Phol has been raking in the cash donations and other goods from his followers for more than 3 years. IIRC some of them built a new house for him. Mrs C tells me that he now has several properties and cash in the bank, donated by people who thought he was wrongly suspected of the murder. I hope there is some way that his ill-gotten gains can be confiscated and given to the girl's family (or, at least taken away from him).

I just looked and there is a laughing emoji attached to the OP. Maybe it's a new one since you last looked.

That makes more sense. So it seems that the article is incorrect in describing the charge as "premeditated murder".

This cannot be correct.

Do your pets have the ability to make informed decisions about whether to accept you proposals of marriage? Will they consent to have sexual relations with you?

*Piccadilly Circus. Please stop making me look like a know-it-all. Edit: Forgot to say thanks for the Sunday post. The Isaan skies are great. I like the thunder clouds best.

I think it was Cupid (Roman God) that dropped one of his arrows on his own foot, thus falling in love with Psyche. I'm pretty sure that Eros was a Greek God, with a similar story. Now I need to go and check with Google.

The story of Cupid must be told differently in Thailand.

Depends where "back home" is.

According to the linked article in this topic she was 17 years old. Is there some further information you are aware of, or is it a different case?

I stand corrected, thank you.

The 300,000 baht withdrawals from an ATM during the time they were in custody will take some explaining.

Is that the 'Mane' dealer?

When your white Maserati convertible isn't getting you enough attention it's time to step up your game.

Read the whole paragraph again. "The rapist claimed that he had helped her negotiate with a senior police officer, so he should get something special in return."

I think you misunderstood. The police officer was demanding an extra 30,000 from her.

Not an idea but a comment. Last time the financial requirements for retirement extensions were increased, "grandfathering" was introduced. This meant that there was no increase for some. The main condition was (if I recall correctly) you needed to have 4 or 5 consecutive, uninterrupted, extensions to qualify. So, if you interrupt your series of extensions, and the financial requirements are increased in the next 4 or 5 years, you may need to keep a lot more than 800,000 in the bank, or 65,000 per month. There has been no increase for 20-ish years, maybe one is due.

Maybe?

Made me smile to see that the government's "Smuggler-in-Chief" is involved.

Correct. In the UK the police can require someone to act as surety before allowing bail to an uncharged person. No money changes hands, but the person acting as surety can be required to pay the agreed sum if the suspect does not surrender to bail or breaches the conditions of bail.

Or ... Loitering within tent.

Chee Games leaves a firearm at the house. A short time later the police arrive, without a warrant, and discover the firearm. Definitely has the sniff of a sting.

If you are serious (I hope you are just exaggerating) it's time to get out of that abusive relationship. If you think Mildred is in danger, take her with you - if not, leave her with her mother. Losing your investments (land, property) behind is tough to deal with, but you could start again and have a good life if you have 800.000 in the bank or a monthly income of 65,000 - or can afford to use an agent. Best of luck Owl.
