Did you try hydrogen peroxide; not the dental version but the real thing of higher percentage? As those tiles are outdoor, just make sure you have a fan blowing behind you in your direction to keep the fumes away which can be pretty unpleasant. Pour hydrogen onto the spot and leave it for a moment to do its work; then a pressure washer (Kärcher etc.) would do the rest. Worthwhile trying. Another possibility is WD40 (sold in large tins if necessary online). WD40 is a very useful tool to remove glued stickers on crockery and other sticky stuff - works wonders for me.

IF, repeat IF they knew he had overstayed then they must have had ID of the fellow. If so, it would have been clear that he is Danish and identifiable. Subsequently they would have informed the Danish Embassy directly or through the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Questions over questions

Applause and compliments to the BiB under the expert leadership of Kittharath Punpetch. Once he and his minions are done with all those nasty criminal farang steaming into the land like Netflix across the telly, then why not keep the good work up and continue to hunt their own countrymen and countrywomen? Plenty of those lurking around, with bigger and less success but nevertheless it would keep the BiB on their toes for years if not decades. Problem there might be that, among those BiB well hidden in uniforms, there are a few black sheep as well. Usually masked from toe to helmet, with oversized sun glasses and a huge clip pad ... actually easier to find along the highways - compared to the much more difficult hunt of the imported trouble arriving in droves at the airports and overland. And, if they are at it, has ever anyone found out who stole those "no tips" in all those government offices - I have not seen any of them lately so someone must have roamed these offices at night ........

Is this the story with the manure and the fan? Just wondering .......

Given the quality of media in 2025 ................ is there anybody out there who has the slightest clue of what collateral damage such "bank news" generate? There are many more crooks, in percentage as well as in absolute numbers, among the local population so clean up the whole act in one go. The bureaucracy of Thailand is world top yet cannot stop all those "irregularities", really?

Experience, mon cher, experience. Nothing to do with racism but with unprofessionalism marred with a social pecking order difficult to understand to non-cognoscenti like you Sir 😉

So the outsized toads of Isan with their addiction to Tolasap, Line, FB and other social media have finally met with competition from further East?

"... Paetongtarn stated her visit was for her children's schooling." So I take it that the entire trip was paid out of her own pocket. Wondering now, what was all that ranigaxoo related to Monaco, apart from the photo-op with HSH Prince Albert. A populistic stage show for car racing or a study trip on casinos?

I never went for all this "free" stuff for good reason. More than once the staff in restaurants told me about "free", "promotion" etc. Seeing what happened on the next table was sufficient.

In a country where more than half the population does not live at the registered address ...... nice going!

It is an idiotic procedure to start with; thankfully the Norwegians have brought this madness to a screeching halt for their own people and there is absolutely nothing the semi-divine half-gods at the immigration can do about it. Maybe abolish the whole bureaucracy, well knowing that this will axe thousands of pencil-pusher assignments

Sure, it is like all visitors to Pattaya go there for the temples ........... Don't give me the agricultural products promotion tour to the United Kingdom; the Brits knew everything on Asian fruits and vegetables long before the existence of Thailand. Lotus's started off as Tesco-Lotus, Makro, Auchan and Carrefour (while they were still doing business in Thailand) did a lot of sourcing and export. The last person to "push" Thai exports is the PM who has not the slightest clue of the product. But yes, it sells well to the uneducated electorate in Northern and Northeastern Thailand. Seeing her fugitive Auntie is understandable yet it remains unclear, what apart from the populistic trip, the PM was doing in the UK. The Monaco excursion though was another ballgame - the study trip to casino-heaven is to underline the importance and survival necessity of casinos in Thailand. Question remains only, who needs casinos for survival. We all know but are not allowed to mention it - fair enough! Wondering what HSH the Prince thought of this visitor from faraway Lala Land 😉

Democracy, coup d'état, article 44 again? Knives out - the series and once the boys in uniforms appear again = reason to celebrate the 20th military coup since democracy got introduced to the land of the semi-divine 😉

Let her run the bubbly affairs for the time being; you're not an ATM and hence there is no generous contributions to the "sick buffalo fund". If that does not go down well, then run better yesterday than today ....... in the opposite direction. I am aware that this is not what you're looking for but you might either thank me and all the other postings for having done so ...... or regret not having listened to unbiased opinions by people who have absolutely no benefit from either of your decisions 😉

What do you complain; Bangkok Bank has been charging 400 Baht for years ........ for doing absolutely nothing! How nice is that?
