It is more likely that the majority of those countries ministers had more pressing engagements at the current time.

Absoultely right!

But for unknown reasons skid-Mark and his cronies thought that they were all holding their breath awaiting the rescheduled date to be announced to jump into their suits and show up in Phuket for a linked-hands photo-op.

That is odd....your comment about taking off the rose colored glasses suggests that you not only worry but are fearful that they are thinking something bad

I think you have confused me with the OP. The glasses seem to have blurred your thinking.

the workmen sneer, laugh and yell stupid things, and try to arouse my interest.

I keep my head down and keep going; never acknowledging them.

Any suggestions?

You know ......be like a regular person.

Yeah, why can't you wear rose tinted glasses and think of them as angels in paradise showering you with praise - like the rest of us.

Jeez it must be tough walking around in your skin.....

Yeah, life is not easy, but at least I dont have to worry about what some random labourers think about me.

Where do I get glasses that work?

Try the same corner shop that sells the "hansum man" t-shirts.

In the EU refusing to help is a punishable offence.

To refuse to help, a request for help would be needed, no.

NO, you have to help without a request, otherwise you commit a criminal offence

in the EU that is.

I'd hate to be the lawyer who has to prove that in court.

I Think It Takes Balls to Leave The Homecountry, ... and become an Expat.

I strongly agree.

Balls - Never leave home without them.

These Siamese are a selfish lot - I witnessed an ambulance trying to get through traffic lights yesterday very near the hospital, no one got out the way - they had to wait just like all the other cars.

Maybe, the patient was a selfish farang who didnt want to let karma take its course.

but no one has got out of it for over 5 minutes which is a bit strange

I guess the airconditioner is still working then.

I think its actually a secret handshake

Executed alone in the privacy of one's room?

Why dont you just jump in a car and learn not to drive like the rest of the population?

Ben Ten Special Course

Is that one of his omnitrix?

pay his Bt100,000 medical bill

100,000 baht for....

Channel 3 was showing him being taken to the hospital where a reddened ear and a small bruise became visible.

good grief....

Must have gone to Bumrungrad dressed as an Arab.

One man's cum is another man's income.

Several questions need answers.

Would a discerning panty buyer have redress if the seller turned out to be lo-so?

False advertising and all that - is one able to pursue a refund through the CPA?

What if it is really a hi-so girl, but mailing cheap roadside unbranded knickers? Is there a guideline for acceptable hi-so panty brands?

How To Make Money In Thailand..., As a Foreigner...

Want to make a small fortune in Thailand?

Start with a big one.

Instead of holding the door open for just one second, they would rather slam it in your face.

They are the same people who rush into an elevator and press the door-close button while hogging the entrance.

If they had only insulted me then I would have let it slide.

Well, great that you didn't let it slide.

Now, that we all know who they are - they're marked for life.

And I wonder what other stamps Immigration uses besides "Thief"...what about "Hitman"? Conman? Drunkard? Rude Bastard?

I heard that there are some passports that have been watermarked - ATM.

Today, Tourism Minister Chumpol Silapa-archa will present a tourism rescue package that includes insurance coverage for foreign tourists and preventive measures against the flu.

Maybe, its also time to dust off and relaunch the SARS era campaign - 1 million baht to every tourist who can prove they caught a swine flu infection in Thailand.

Tell you what, I've got a 40' container load of Free Nelson Mandela tee shirts stashed away in the East End, London, maybe we could do a deal.

Yeah, let's bring Nelson to Thailand and get him arrested at the Imperial Queens Park for littering.

that the airline had informed its cabin crews about the severity of swine flu and ways to protect themselves from infection.

They're quite safe actually - because anyway they are nowhere near the passengers throughout the flight.

I believe the locals need to be educated in basic hygiene & manners amongst other things.

Way to go - You tell 'em Bubblehead.
